The far right is international and they all organize together and raise money for each other. I'd argue it's critical to pay attention to elections in other countries.

Yes well it does require things like “empathy” and possessing a basic understanding that all of our lives are interconnected

pretty clear evidence that republicans in the US losing any election going forward are going to always beg for a coup if they lose. lots of people will have to go to jail

It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.

Brazil rejected Bolsonaro. Serbia's students beat Vučić. Machado is home in Venezuela. What a day for democracy.

The main story of the GOP over the past decade is the takeover of the party establishment by people who actually believe the nonsense they formerly deployed to rile up the rubes without actually buying into it themselves.

Just been such a revolution in my worldview to realise that people like Musk actually believe this, this isn't just the nonsense they feed the rubes so they can do coldly rational mercantile calculations in smokey rooms among themselves. No. It's rubes all the way down, they're that stupid.

reliance on starlink is a national security threat for every country, including the united states, where musk would absolutely use it to sabotage the foreign policy of a dem president it must be replaced posthaste

Scott Horton@robertscotthorton.bsky.social

The White House says the malicious manipulation of Ukrainian access to StarLink and StarShield is over. Zelenskyy says it continues. And Zelenskyy, of course, is correct.

the biggest reason republicans are eating shit in every single debate is that their president is terrible and his policies are terrible and there’s no way to defend any of it that comes across in a credible manner and it couldn’t be happening to a more deserving group of candidates

Joe Marshall reposted

It is, in fact, possible to impeach and remove President Trump from office next week. It won't happen, however, because Republicans also support Putin and Russia and agree with Trump.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Wow — listen to these new comments from Trump. Thanking Putin, trashing Zelenskyy, characterizing Russia as eager for peace and Ukraine as intransigent. The mask is totally off.

When I started writing about Supreme Court expansion, you couldn’t get the question *asked* in a poll. The first time I saw it actually polled, it was 8%. Now, we here.

Kind of a buried lede in the results of this Supreme Court approval rating poll from Marquette: Overall support for Supreme Court expansion, which even Democratic politicians were dismissing as "radical" just a few years ago, is now at 53 percent today.marquette.edu/2026/09/marq...

nationalize everything Elon Musk owns.

Just two days before launching an effort to slash red tape for commercial space transportation, President Trump last month purchased up to $5 million of bonds issued by SpaceX, a major federal contractor run by Elon Musk, according to ethics filings made public on Thursday. https://cnn.it/4rRrZU0

Reading the article, he doesn't just mean democracy is bad. He keeps saying, basically, that the rule of law should only be applied to commoners.

“Democracy has been hailed as, like, the holy grail for the last couple hundred years, but democracies are inefficient,” said the crypto billionaire. “If you get a benevolent dictator, it’s actually extremely efficient." Hmm, where have I heard this before? www.nytimes.com/2026/10/01/b...

man I would like one fucking electorate - one! - to remember that fascism is bad for more than five minutes at a time

First results in the first round of the Brazilian Presidential election are in. Lula trailing but looks like the south is reporting faster which skews towards Bolsonaro. That said, prediction markets think this looks good for Bolsonaro (that has signal, unlike prior to vote counting).

As someone who does teach con law, the idea that the Republicans on the Roberts Court are just too committed to "originalism" is farcical. You will search the opinions in Shelby County or Trump v. US (inter many alia) in vain for even the slightest trace of it

Omar Wasow@owasow.bsky.social

Not a legal expert but seems like “adherence to originalism” has been highly selective, not remotely “blind.”

Trump and his cronies are just straight up cartoon villains. If you’re making a list of the most evil son of a bitch assholes to ever be in the White House, this administration has to be near the top of the list. Pound for pound, they’re some of the most demented, fucked up people to hold power.

What Hoskins did was not Trumpian fire and brimstone, bellowing about the criminality of Democrats and immigrants to try to overturn elections. It’s the unsexy, quietly effective cheating made possible by placing party loyalists in key bureaucratic positions.

Pretty clear to me there’s a very good case against this man for mass murder, and I’m saying that in as measured a fashion as I can. He’s order the killing of 234 people under no plausible war or legal justification. I am skeptical he will ever face legal accountability for til his but he should.
