We have become the "empire" we once swore to defeat — the bullies and plunderers we were raised to resist.

Incredible scenes from Brazil after Brazilians saved their democracy.

Don't let the MAGA bigots fool you. Our strength is the diversity and quality of our candidates.

Are y'all ready?

If the people of Hungary, Serbia, and Brazil can rise up to save their democracies, we can to! In 8 days the American people will deliver an unmistakable message to the corrupt authoritarian Trump regime.

Trump's unhinged 1,300-word assault on Bill Maher is a chilling testament to a president's accelerating descent into madness. The world is witnessing the total psychological collapse of America's commander-in-chief — and it's fucking terrifying.

Democracy Demands Participation: Vote Wisely, or Lose EVERYTHING I voted straight-ticket Democrat today. We either hold the loathsome piece of shit accountable, or we lose our democracy. The stakes are that high. Let's fucking go! 💪

The chasm between Obama and Trump is so vast, it takes a special kind of stupid to listen to the unhinged psychopath and still think, "That's my guy."

Massive line for Obama, Amy Acton, and Sherrod Brown rally in Ohio.

If Ohioans elect vile human colostomy bag Vivek Ramaswamy over the amazing Amy Acton, it'll take decades to remove the stench from the state of Ohio.

Elon Musk's X account has devolved into a 24/7 exercise in dumbfuckery. This is what truly desperate shitposting looks like. He's losing, he knows it — and the meltdown has been spectacular.

Not even Elon Musk's money is going to be able to save corrupt pedophile protector Ken Paxton. This is Galveston Island, Texas.

Every. Fucking. Word.

Only the dumbest, most hateful Islamophobe MAGA bigots would disagree with Abdul El-Sayed.

Are you not entertained? 😂

Racist, Trump-endorsed North Carolina Senate candidate Michael Whatley was busted scrubbing a Confederate flag from his campaign event. The botched photoshop attempt has only made the controversy all the more humiliating for a must-win MAGA candidate.

The sordid revelations of Lindsey Graham having sex with young boys just reaffirms the public perception of the GOP being the party of child sex predators, pedophiles, and pedophile protectors.

Tonight, Trump was confused and babbling incoherently -- and then this happened.

I'm so sick of this traitorous piece of shit.

Murderous dictator Vladimir Putin slaughtered children in a park in Ukraine on Tuesday and Steve Witkoff praised him as a "humanitarian" on Wednesday. If you're not repulsed and disgusted, you just might be a sick and twisted piece of shit yourself.

Vote like your fucking life depends on it... Because it does.

This is what TOTAL HUMILIATION looks like: JD Vance attempted to greet Cincinnati Bengals players in the locker room and got snubbed and ghosted by every single player except one.

Hey Texas, I know y'all are being bombarded by Elon Musk-funded attack ads against James Talarico. But the truth is, for people with ethics, morality, common sense and emotional intelligence, this is not a difficult decision.

This woman has a message for her fellow Texans.

While voting in Tennessee, this happened to Dolly Parton's sister. Listen up, y'all. Take as long as you need to and make damn fucking sure your vote is cast correctly.

The difference between the French and Americans. 😂

If only more dads had this gentleman's wisdom.

Amid swirling tear gas, France's Orchestre du Nouveau Monde plays on in solidarity with student protesters.

Dan Rather is spot-fucking-on. Since Trump measures everything through the lens of ratings, I'm sure he'll be very proud when his livestreamed treason trial breaks the internet.

Well said.

I had no idea Matthew McConaughey was this fucking stupid. This woman has a few choice words for him.
