by @andrewtorrez.bsky.social @lizdye.bsky.social 1/2 “On Wednesday, October 21, the Trump administration waltzed into federal court in California, demanding a temporary restraining order to force the state to set aside vote-by-mail ballots from some 20,000 people it claims are noncitizens..

Oof.

Well, of course she is.

But--God's word (per Jesus, via Mark) is "Love the Lord your god... & love your neighbor as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these."

Nevadans are ready to elect leaders who fight for the people. Winning this election will take each and every one of us, so make your plan to vote on or before Tuesday, November 3.

If you encounter ICE, here's what every New Yorker should know.

How I imagine the situation inside Team Vivek recently (if there’s at least one sane person there anyway)

"My dictionary just ran outside and threw itself off a bridge."

"At least if you were following the Grateful Dead or Phish in their respective heydays, you knew the set list would change from night to night. Trump, on the other hand, is more like a second-rate tribute band, playing the same songs over and over." Oof.

Hush! I must hear! It’s an election year, I am a voter, and I need to know the president’s answers to the most pressing questions facing America today: How upholstered are the chairs in the Rose Garden?

Trump’s efforts to tear down the East Potomac Golf Course in open defiance of a court order is about much, much more than golf. Another must-read from @lizdye.bsky.social for @atrupar.com.

So Mattie (Paxton) Hayworth wants me to help her dad beat the evil Democrats. Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! viewfinderparallax.blogspot.com/2026/10/welp...

It really needs to be emphasized that the woman Vivek is featuring in these videos fled with an accused & indicted child rapist and successfully helped him avoid trial for 20+ years.

'Zacly.

JD - I've got 15 free minutes before my son's hockey practice ends, so let me see how many of Trump's enrichment schemes you didn't see that I can remind you of. 1/ First one is easy: Trump has executed over 30,000 stock trades, many on inside information, netting him millions.

Trump just claimed the United States had done “a lot” for Ukraine, but that Ukraine has done “nothing” for the United States. This is unjust in the highest degree. And not just untrue in the normal sense — it is a big lie, designed to bring about horror and chaos. snyder.substack.com/p/trumps-big...

Make a plan to vote.

"ust call me Vote by Mail, because my delivery is raising a lot of questions in the White House." 😂😂😂

My name is not the reason we're paying $5/gallon for gas. My name is not the reason you can't afford your groceries. My name is not the reason you can't afford your mortgage or rent. My name is not the reason you can't see a doctor. Their policies are the reason.

Zelensky on bombing the Russian data centers: “It’s pretty clear where the bots were coming from.”

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

🧵🧵🧵 I was going to write a simple sentence about the madness of the moment, but I got distracted by the U.S. president’s complaint that he was screwed out of the Nobel Peace Prize after bombing multiple countries, and then he bolstered his case with a plan to execute a guy in a wheelchair and ...

Look at all these Pro-Lifers, cheering a Live-streamed killing.

i've identified the Dockers store where Michael Tracy bought and then subsequently returned these pants after wearing them. i will be pursuing criminal prosecution.

Oof.

Some ~personal~ news: After five years, I have been laid off from @the-independent.com. I am grateful for the time I have had there. With that in mind, I am absolutely looking for new work opportunities, especially ahead if the midterms. My email is EMGarcia2009@gmail.com. My signal is emgarcia.85

A new addition to American Christians' Advent season.

" I want [my son] to ruin the vibe."

The ancestors of '68 are smiling.

Wow, this did numbers, so now it is time for shameless self-promotion. ... Kidding! It's #bannedbooksweek, so just going to say #LetBooksBe. Read books. Share books. Support organizations that promote books and reading. #booksky

In a nutshell*: *Or perhaps I mean nuts' hell.

This is how the new CBS keeps people from remembering that the longest serving GOP Speaker of the House ultimately went to jail for covering up child rape. Which is apparently always in season.

Lionesses keep the male lions in check out in the wild. I’d love to see women doing similar things here in society.

You're welcome.

"If people can communicate like this, then how can speech be properly controlled? If people can understand one another just by scratching a bow across taut strings—perhaps this is a form of witchcraft. No place that tolerates it must be permitted to stand." Oof.

Jack Smith made it crystal clear that his investigation was sound and lawful, that the president had committed crimes and that the GOP attacks on him were the actual weaponization of our justice system. He showed courage and moral clarity and continues to be one of the heroes of this moment.
