🚨SENATE ALERT: Democrats are closing in. Silver Bulletin gives Dems a 76% chance to win the Senate—with strong leads in NC, GA and NH, and competitive races across OH, ME, MI, MN, AK and TX. But Republicans are flooding the airwaves with money to stop the blue wave. Vote early. Finish the job. 🔵

Why didn’t they give this info to the states well before the election??? At least if they really cared about illegal voting, more than sowing distrust

The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com

The Trump administration asked Washington state to set aside more than 400 ballots from individuals it claims may not be eligible to vote, following a similar request in California.

Any way you slice or dice the productive output of the Trump White House and its Republican Party enablers, what you find is a heaving portion of deceit, double-dealing, and self-enrichment. trib.al/yLXNZkC

Jesse Watters thinks that Barack Obama doesn't have much of a legacy and that Trump's presidency will be talked about for many years to come. He then mentioned that Trump has sons and grandsons and that Obama only has daughters....so much to unpack with this one. 🤦‍♀️

It seems necessary to remind everyone that just two days ago, the Russians killed teacher Inna Maryukhina and her one-year-old daughter Angelina in the village of Nova Vodolaha, Kharkiv region. Is this what "humanism" now means to Witkoff?

Mail voting is so secure. I get a notice at every step along the way. If I don’t hear that they counted my ballot, or received it, I know right away. If someone forged my signature but I haven’t voted yet, I know. Even Trump votes by mail

Republicans against Trump: “What part of enforcing a law passed 86-11 by the Senate does the President and his advisors not understand?” Tillis said. “It’s unconscionable that this administration is capitulating to a Russian dictator who illegally invaded Ukraine.” - Grand Junction Sentinel

The Original Sin of politics was the invention of the passive voice, when Adam and Eve ate of the Tree of Vague Unaccountability. Wild how all those violent ICE agents just … got hired … and deployed … somehow. Who can possibly say how? It’s all a mystery.

Susan Collins: "I think what happened is far too many ICE officers were hired and deployed without adequate vetting and training"

In July, I led several Senators in a request to the Secretary of the Air Force to disclose how much money is being stolen from taxpayers to pay for Trump’s luxury Qatari jet. Today I got a reply. 100 words. Telling Congress to screw off. Can’t wait for a Democratic Senate!

The Trump administration's scare tactics ahead of the midterms have hit a usual refrain: "migrant caravan." In reality, it's about 600 people (mostly families) who are 1,000 miles from the border. Just when gas prices keep climbing, Trump world is looking for a distraction. This is their attempt.

"A just peace is no compromises as to the sovereignty, freedom, and territorial integrity of my country." — President Volodymyr Zelenskyy 🇺🇦 No matter the shifting external political pressure, the fundamental baseline for Ukraine hasn’t changed 🧵👇

Lewi Whalberg@anno1540.bsky.social

1/4 Trump says he told Zelenskyy to “take it easy” on Russian refineries because “we’re causing a world problem.” But Ukraine is fighting an invading Russia. The fundamental issue remains Russia’s war, not Ukraine’s right to defend itself. apnews.com/article/9c3d...
