I do think when historians look back the period the exact moment where it flipped and started going the other way won’t be anything any politician did but my Minneapolis neighbors weathering the worst of the regime in the streets, rallying together, fighting back, and winning

Tennessee governor candidate Jerri Green just CALLED OUT Marsha Blackburn for avoiding a debate. “This is a job interview and everybody is seeing her for the COWARD that she is.” “Show a little backbone if she has one left and stop running into elevators, stop running from press and the airports.”

This war in Iran is raising the cost of everything. There is help available for getting food, paying for heat, or weatherizing your home. Go to MaryPeltola.com/Help for a list of resources available to you. Stay safe, and look out for each other.

El-Sayed: This is like the 3rd campaign stop where Donald Trump can't help but mention somebody's ass. When I get to DC, I'm just gonna make sure that I never let him see mine…

Q: What do you make of Trump naming everything after himself? Gov. Whitmer: I'm not a psychologist

I promise you, there’s a new coalition emerging in American politics. And it’s emerging right here in the Florida governor’s race.

Ding ding fucking ding.

#BREAKING: the Ninth Circuit DISMISSED the Trump Admin’s request to segregate and not count any mail-in ballots that may be returned by a list of approximately 20,000 individuals it “believes” are “likely” noncitizens.

Trump and Republicans are responsible for the cost of living crisis.

We're putting up these billboards all across America to expose Trump's many broken promises. Go to HePromised.Us to learn more.

An American student with a disability is suffering from a broken wrist and a black eye after ICE wrongfully tackled and detained him in Santa Maria. Americans didn’t ask to be brutalized by ICE. They sure as hell shouldn’t be paying for its actions with broken limbs.

This November, Mainers will decide the direction of this whole country. Is it for the billionaires and Trump, or everyday people like us?

A party of performative morons disinterested in policy.

Last week, I met with young leaders from the My Brother's Keeper Alliance at the Obama Presidential Center. They shared more about the work they’re doing at school, their goals for the future, and even gave me an update on their class elections. Take a look!

That this is in THE WASHINGTON POST is almost too much irony to bear.

Life was already hard enough before Donald Trump lied us into war, before his tariffs made everything more expensive, and before he doubled your health insurance premiums and slashed Medicaid.

Student anti-corruption protests sweep Vucic out of office in Serbia. People everywhere are sick of corruption. Our turn.

El-Sayed on Trump's cognitive tests: "I went to medical school...In my neurology unit, I would have to give that MoCA exam...The only people that you give a MoCA test to are people who you worry may have cognitive deficits. By definition, if you're taking one of those tests, something's wrong."

I emailed Patrick Healy, assistant managing editor for standards and trust at NYT, to ask why their story about a House report with new details of rape allegations against the President of the United States included neither those details, nor a single use of the word "rape." archive.is/1s9AM

In case facts still matter

Venues Start Canceling on Vivek Ramaswamy Over His Disgusting Ad: ‘People Don’t Want Him There’ Businesses have begun pulling out of Vivek Ramaswamy’s bus tour with other GOP candidates. ‘It’s that damn ad,’ a top Ohio Republican tells Zeteo.

New photo of Vivek Ramaswamy's 8th grade teacher protesting Vivek over his latest ad: "SHAME ON YOU, VIVEK! I TAUGHT YOU BETTER!"

Our taxpayer dollars have funded this white supremacist trillionaire who is using his winnings—some half a billion dollars—to try and shove Republican candidates down our throats and avoid investigation and prosecution. www.americaamerica.news/p/how-long-c...

GUARDIAN: “Lula’s win is bad news for Jair Bolsonaro, who is serving a 27-year sentence for that botched power grab… also a blow for Donald Trump, the Bolsonaro clan’s most important international ally.” www.theguardian.com/world/2026/o...

The trajectory of Ramaswamy's odds in the Ohio governor's race has been clear for the last few weeks. But the campaign's decision this week to air a deeply personal attack ad against Amy Acton confirmed the race is slipping away from him—and perhaps creating collateral damage for fellow Republicans.

It’s Truly Exceptional….

NEW AD: Have you seen these anti-Talarico attack ads? Elon Musk paid for nearly all of them. The world's first trillionaire knows if he drags the most corrupt politician in Texas across the finish line, Ken Paxton will owe him everything. Elon Musk: Texas is not for sale.

This is the kind of thug behavior creepy billionaires and their government stooges resort to when it looks like the people are going to reclaim their power. Democracy? Or government-by-billionaire? That’s the choice. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

The BBC is doing something important, refusing to be intimidated by a powerful person trying to use the legal system to punish criticism and discourage scrutiny. They’re schooling the American press on what the 1st Amendment means. Read about it here: joycevance.substack.com/p/the-bbc-st...

El-Sayed: "We had a little debate. Or I had a debate and he just pointed at me and said, 'He's Muslim.'"

Donald Trump has sent his DOJ cronies to file a bullshit lawsuit to try to steal a Senate election in Alaska. They will fail. When we fight, we win.🗳️⚖️💪

Always Trump/Russia, Trump/Russia, Trump/Russia. Now Russia is interfering for Trump in U.S. elections. Probably with his blessing. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/22/u...
