Brazil just reminded the world that fascists can be defeated at the ballot box. Our turn comes November 3. Let’s make it fucking hurt.

To folks who follow me on Bluesky & appreciate the journalism I do. Can you please read the EPA story and post on social media platforms if you are so moved. This kind of work is important. But it only matters if people read it and engage with it. Here's the link. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/24/c...

As public opposition to data centers (and the dirty energy that powers them) keeps growing, Democrats would be extremely foolish to hand Big Tech developers and the fossil fuel industry a massive sweetheart deal. They should vote NO on the so-called permitting reform bill.

No one needs to listen to James Carville about anything. But I'll keep saying this until I'm blue in the face: It's not the lefties who hold Democrats hostage in Congress, IT'S THE MODERATES. Bernie Sanders never killed a Democratic bill he didn't like. You know who did? Joe Manchin. Many times.

Yelp Hit the nail on the head there... @salvodetergent.bsky.social

Everyone is on Jan Crawford of CBS for her post about Abdul El-Sayed today, but you may have missed her post about Zohran Mamdani ten days ago. This is who she is.

Indeed. Time to take power from the billionaires. A wealth tax would be a good start.

Masked Israeli settlers attacked Palestinian villagers on Friday, setting olive groves on fire and slinging rocks. Caught in the attack was Post photographer Heidi Levine. “They just kept kicking me and kicking me, like probably 50 times,” Levine said. https://wapo.st/4yt6dHY

Time for an era of tech trust-busting?

IMPORTANT‼️: Zelenskyy stated that there are Starlink speed limitations in Ukraine but not in the EU, and that this is a planned operation ‼️ Zelenskyy to journalists (full statement translated): Regarding the work of Starlink on the territory of Ukraine: whether everything has recovered,

The White House has announced the new press secretary.

"I suppose you could say that insisting on the rights of all people is issuing a "political purity test." But this ignores the fact that those who refuse to enter the tent unless you push other people out of the tent are *also* issuing a political purity test." www.the-reframe.com/winning-the-...

If Biden had a Katie Zacharia this close to midterms, there would be wall-to-wall coverage of how incompetent the entire admin is, but since it’s a Trump admin, we all spend a week making the same jokes while Trump aligns the US with Russia. This admin is a circus on purpose.

Billionaires would rather do this than pay taxes.

Friends — It's time to defund Elon Musk. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/defund-musk

How do these editors live with themselves? We all remember how Biden was covered, and we are beyond anything Biden ever did every 10 minutes.

Friday night. The time to sneak through the things you know the public will hate. Also the ones that are probably illegal and traitorous. Trump is opening the floodgates of support for the Kremlin, Putin, their illegal aggression against Ukraine...and their aid to Iran in their war against us.

Traitor.

Why 👏 aren't the journalists 👏 who relentlessly questioned every 👏👏 minor Biden health issue 👏 asking 👏👏 about this 👏👏 daily?

Meta is a fascist enterprise.

Call Chuck Schumer and tell him to defend Ilhan Omar publicly or resign. (202) 224-6542

If this district flips, there is no way centrist media will continue to report on the diner patrons there - the point was that they were conservative and they were positioned as "regular Americans" to normalize comservatism

Democrats need to run hard against Elon Musk. They need to warn the public that the world's richest man is spending $276 million to attempt a hostile takeover of our government.

will try to answer these in a piece next week but for now i will say that part of the *point* of court expansion, in my mind, is to create a disequilibrium — a potential race to the bottom — that will force a truce.

strategic political capture of the court has, for 40 years, been a one-way ratchet. among other things, this has inculcated a sense among conservatives that they can act with virtual impunity. showing them that their opponents will play hardball is a necessary first step toward a better status quo.

steve is concerned with the implications of all of this for the judiciary but, with all genuine respect, i really think that one has to approach this as a problem of game theory

October 17 is a nationwide NO KINGS day of action ahead of the midterms. There are rallies taking place all over the country to promote early voting and make sure every eligible voter has a plan, knows their options, and is ready to make their voice count. Find an event: https://www.nokings.org/

It’s hard to think of a better definition of a traitor to the West than someone who deliberately sabotages a European democracy’s military operation against a barbaric Russian invasion.

House Republicans aren't here to stop the corruption, they are here to protect it.

Ashley Moody should be in prison for her participation in the Hope Florida scandal. She stole $10 million from Florida children! We must elect @angieforfl.bsky.social, the candidate who has proven she stands against corrupt politicians. 🎥 Bulletproof Soul #AngieNixon #FloridaPolitics #corruption

A reminder who funds Johnson, who’s another 🇷🇺 puppet.

JUST POSTED: Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff have pushed a multibillion oil deal with Russia as part of peace talks that will bring profits to their family business partners. A new front for Trump-era conflicts of interest. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/03/u...

This one is doing the rounds

I dare AG Sulzberger and Joe Kahn to read this paragraph and tell me any of it is inaccurate — and then tell me they still think both-sidesing is a morally defensible thing to do and that history will look kindly upon them.

Susan Collins' out-of-state PAC is spending big bucks to buy her another six years to do the oligarchs' bidding. Posting this convo between @troyjackson207.bsky.social and @hcrichardson.bsky.social, with the good people here at Bluesky at my big sis's request. www.youtube.com/live/UUPCTaN...

We have enough food, technology, and money to save the planet. We just have a system where destroying it is more profitable. That's not a climate problem. That's a greed problem. #ClimateJustice

On this day in 1994, the Clinton administration's heathcare reform plan was declared "dead" by Congress. Over 30 years later, the US is still the only industrialized country without universal healthcare. This should be a national outrage.

Trump has failed miserably at everything he has attempted to do. If we are vigilant and show up to vote, expect Trump‘s election meddling to be a total failure as well..

Susan Collins has voted to confirm 60+ anti-abortion judges in her time in the Senate, and now she's voted for 3 more just since last week. Nice to see Senator Collins was able to take a break from lying about corruption to give a lifetime appointment to another anti-choice judge.

Timothy Mellon, heir to Gilded Age tycoon Andrew Mellon's fortune, gave nearly $200M to elect Trump and Republicans in 2024 and over $20M so far this midterm cycle. Tax dynastic wealth now.
