What you need to know about Israeli election 👇 - Majority of Israelis voted for non-Netanyahu govt parties - Not knockout blow to Netanyahu but very hard to remain PM - Massive drop in Netanyahu block. Fall of 68 to 50-55 - Record Arab turnout Likely outcome Eisenkot govt backed by Arab parties

As ICE is roaming the streets and fields of CA's Central Valley, UFW staff is out talking to workers and sharing know your rights info including these "red cards." We're also watching for ICE activity on rural roads and sharing guidance with both union and non-union farm workers.

It appears that November’s Prop A could repeal June’s Prop B, meaning the recently adopted lifetime ban on SF supervisors serving more than two terms may go up in smoke. Basically the Lurie/Mandelman law could wipe out the Mahmood law. Not a good day for Team Corporate Democrat in San Francisco.

🇺🇦 Zelensky suggested why Putin wanted to resume negotiations with Ukraine "Perhaps there are some agreements between America and Russia that I don't know about," the president said.

Musk does not have a right to his customers but our government is pretending he does.

A hopeful sign

Max Miller said people have been "using Social Security as a safety net when it was" never "supposed" to be one. My parents moved in with me because Social Security wasn't enough of a safety net. That's the difference in this race.

Smart move by Mike Rogers' staff to set up his earpiece so it mutes any reference to Trump.

The internals must be horrendous.

Please post and share this video of @hallieshoffner.bsky.social who's running for the US Senate against Tom Cotton in Arkansas. Hallie has a deep connection to the people, the land, the history, and the future of Arkansas. In Arkansas? Vote for Hallie! @hcrichardson.bsky.social @jbf1755.bsky.social

Fear is contagious, but so is HOPE! Grateful to spend time discussing the upcoming midterm election with @hcrichardson.bsky.social and the need for everyone to exercise their constitutional right to vote!

Here is the TLDR of the 9th Circuit hearing: DOJ will lose. It will be either 2-1 or 3-0. It will be on jurisdiction and perhaps on the merits. The argument was a debacle for Trump and the DOJ lawyer who argued it. Watch for details. www.youtube.com/live/EsuYPbm...

One benefit of holding leaders accountable for crimes is that if Flávio Bolsonaro tries to overturn this election, he knows exactly where he’d end up. In prison, next to his father.

My reporting on the student movement in Serbia last summer. They kept at it, amazingly, for two years. And they won. snyder.substack.com/p/youth-prot...

The technofascists are having a complete meltdown

Historic day. Student movement ousts Vucic with huge voter turnout

Anti-corruption politics has ousted yet another corrupt authoritarian.

Just to be clear... Prop 40 is a ONE-TIME retroactive tax. It applies ONLY to billionaires and would tax just 5% of their wealth — which grew 30% in 2025. California's billionaires would still be worth $2T+ AFTER the tax. The revenue will fund healthcare for millions of Californians. Vote YES.

Greater MAGA is having a truly sh-t day, brothers and sisters. Praise be. Vucic gets routed in Serbia, and Lula prevails in Brazil. Not what Trump world wanted nine days out from our election here. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/10...

“You can’t con people, at least not for long. You can create excitement, you can do wonderful promotion and get all kinds of press, and you can throw in a little hyperbole. But if you don’t deliver the goods, people will eventually catch on.” - Donald Trump, The Art of the Deal

Amazing how the Attorney General doesn't even pretend the job of the Justice Department is to enforce the law, it's just literally "If voters are confused and our party loses, that gives us a sad and it means the full force of the federal government must be brought to bear to undo the election"

Blanche on CBS says his suit against Alaska is "asking the court to step in where the Alaska Supreme Court didn't, which is to look at federal law and if necessary to allow a process for Alaska to decide who should be certified as the winner." (So, the voters won't get to decide. Got it.)

The Justice Department represents the United States of America, not the president. That’s what White House counsel is for.

Veles is a Slavic god of the underworld.

you know, i think this guy might be bad at the law bsky.app/profile/atru...

I know that everyone is focused on Trump's attacks in California and Alaska. My team is fighting in court in both places. But understand the fight for free and fair elections is much broader. Elias Law Group is currently litigating 92 voting and election cases in 42 states plus DC.

We all knew who Blanche was— he covered up the Epstein files. Republican Senators confirmed him anyway. The corruption of our Justice Department is on them.

BASH: Do you see your job as helping Republicans keep this seat? AG TODD BLANCHE: *a lot of words that aren't a denial*

The next 10 days will test our democracy. Trump hasn’t been able to suppress votes systemically like he wanted to & now there's a lot going on, especially in courts. Get caught up on what you need to know now, like recent developments in California and Alaska. joycevance.substack.com/p/trumps-las...

🚨BREAKING: DOJ urged a federal appeals court to reject California’s motion to dismiss the federal government’s dangerous lawsuit to stop state officials from counting ballots from tens of thousands of people the Trump administration claims may be noncitizens. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Republicans spent years investigating the dick pics found on Hunter Biden's laptop but are refusing to do anything about the treason found on Jared Kushner's phone.

Trump should be impeached — and real accountability will require more than impeachment.

this is total gobbledygook? the process to decide who should be certified as the winner is the election, and there is no federal law that says the courts get to decide who that is.

The great Oleksandra Matviichuk is absolutely right to draw attention to the horrible humanitarian crisis in Oleshky. All Putin, Witkoff, and Kushner can do is invert and traduce the meaning of “humanitarianism,” in the best traditions of Russian propaganda.

Mark your calendars because on Tuesday, October 27th, Secretary @petebuttigieg.bsky.social is joining me on the Coast for a rally! We’re going to bring the energy, talk about what’s at stake for Mississippi and get ready to send Cindy High Prices packing in less than 10 days.

Zelenskyy: The most important thing today is that Starlink and Starshield operations have been restored to the speeds we had before the restrictions.

I’m grateful to VP Kamala Harris and Congressman Bennie Thompson for joining me in the Delta for a healthcare roundtable, and to everyone in Clarksdale who welcomed us and shared their stories.

@democracydefendersfund.org & our partners are stepping in on behalf of LULAC & the NAACP so eligible LA voters don't lose their ballots over a thumb drive of bogus names We argue in court Tuesday What our filings say, in this week's publisher's note 👇 -TN

Bernie Sanders: "If you believe as I do that Donald Trump is the most dangerous president in the history of the United States, we need to get rid of that rubber stamp Republican leadership in the House and Senate."

We're building something special here in Mississippi, and I'm grateful to Senator Sheldon Whitehouse for coming down and being part of it. #MississippiMatters

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was driving his construction crew to work when an ICE officer shot and killed him in Houston. He wasn’t even the person ICE was looking for. Now Texas voters are leaving their “I Voted” stickers at his memorial. #BlueWaveIn10Days
