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"
BASH: The worry is that we end up in a situation where President Trump tries to overturn the election and the result of that could be like what we saw after January 6--
BLANCHE: Stop it! You gotta stop it with that! That's crazy
BASH: This is a president who has a history
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.)
Trump is gutting the Clear Air Act and poisoning our air by "prioritizing the economic interests of corporations and easing costs for polluting industries."
Congress needs to end this administration's pay-to-play corruption.
Donald Trump has spent at least $45 BILLION on his Iran war.
$30 billion could've extended ACA tax credits for a year and kept premiums from skyrocketing.
$13 billion could've paid for Head Start for a year.
AND we'd still have money left over.
Gaslighting 101: The AG is literally calling us crazy for thinking Trump will use the levers of government power to overturn the results of an election, when he has a documented history of doing just that. That’s tyranny.

Like France, we are now spending more on debt service than on defense. The chaos in France is a cautionary tale for Trump's economic illiteracy, not for immigration.
If you’re thinking of buying an Audi, don’t forget that an Audi executive appeared at a Trump rally this weekend to try to boost an American dictatorship. Make your car-buying decision accordingly.
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.
I have read dozens of outraged posts because the US special envoy Witkoff called Putin a "humanist." But no one is writing about the fact that the American negotiators are simply not doing their job. Let me explain.
conservatives in washington state want freedom and small government in the form of state-mandated genital exams for high school students:

Obama's "What if Saddam designed a Cheesecake Factory" joke was hilarious. Anyone who doesn't get it either hasn't been to a Cheesecake Factory, is too young to remember Saddam Hussein's dictator chic, or is the sort of humorless prig that constantly makes the left look bad.
Cheesecake Factory is fancy, special-occasion dining!
It also has a deliberately over-the-top design aesthetic in part to reinforce the image that it’s fancy special-occasion dining
Illinois is seeing companies bring new tech and choose us for their next generation of manufacturing.
Aermec chose to locate its first US manufacturing site right here in DeKalb.
Aermec North America, an Italian-leader in HVAC solutions, recently broke ground on its first U.S. manufacturing site in Dekalb. 🎉

10/25 The latest early vote data in Maine shows 20 percent of registered voters have already voted in the November 3rd election.
Democrats, and to a lesser extent unenrolled voters, are turning out at a pace far higher than the 2022 midterms. #maine#MEpolitics
Sen. Adam Schiff tells NBC that Pete Hegseth and "anyone who has knowledge of what happened" should testify before the Senate on Ukraine's Starlink disruptions.
"Somebody is lying here. Maybe they're all lying in different ways, but we need to find out."
"The merging of tech and MAGA networks created a frenzy of open political corruption unlike anything in American history."
@thewalrus.ca published The Nerd Reich's introduction, which charts tech fascism's rise to power under Trump/Thiel.

Anthony Davis: “Who exactly are this 31% of Americans who think this lazy tyrant, this dollar-store dictator, this narcoleptic nincompoop is doing a good job?”
🚨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/...
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.
"Imagine a mother who would run away—abandoning her children—because she chose a pedophile rapist over her own flesh and blood. And now imagine that woman slithering out from her hole to defame her daughter in the service of helping a cretin."
Christopher Hale: Archbishop Jeffrey Grob of Milwaukee apologized on Sunday for praying over President Trump in the Oval Office last week, and he accused the White House of posting video of the prayer without the bishops’ consent
Putin knows exactly what he’s doing.
While Kushner and Witkoff are trying to negotiate an end to the war in Ukraine, the Kremlin is dangling lucrative business opportunities in front of them at the same time they are pushing for a deal more favorable to Russia.
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.
My fellow Mississippians I do give a damn that you’re suffering at the pump.
Cindy High Prices cares more about what’s best for her MAGA daddy than us. #PickAnotherSenator
wow -- a squirming Mike Rogers gets flustered as Kristen Welker points out that while he attacks El-Sayed over the Muslim Brotherhood, *Rogers himself* defended the Muslim Brotherhood during the same period of time that El-Sayed did!
Ramaswamy may have pulled his horrible ad featuring Amy Acton's mother, but it doesn’t erase that he publicly punished Acton for the horrible cards she was dealt, which is parents who provided an unsafe, unstable home. His moral compass does not exist and he’s unfit to lead Ohio.
I'm grateful to receive the endorsement of the Des Moines Register Editorial Board.
In 9 days, we're going to win this race and deliver change for Iowa!
CONGRESS APPROVED THE MONEY — SO WHY ARE OUR TROOPS STILL LIVING LIKE THIS?
Pete Hegseth owes our troops & their families an explanation.

Shitposting aside, it cannot be overstated how much red tape Republicans added to the process of getting Medicaid and SNAP.
Millions of people who literally qualify for these programs are being kicked off them, despite qualifying, because of all the red tape Grassley voted to add to them.
Unfortunately Republicans hv been even harder @ work raising costs+ making life harder for Americans They hv already increased gas prices and imposed tariffs and cut Medicaid and SNAP Grassley helped each step along the way
Kansas Dem Sen. nominee Adam Hamilton on trans rights:
“I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself”
i wouldnt call it a blunder
more like his MO = arrogant idiocy
“The Acton campaign immediately went to work to monetize Vivek’s blunder through texting and email solicitations. Great to see that it paid off”
Trump admin arrests Colorado priest.
Incarcerates him for over a year.
Judge orders him released without charges.
They release him without the wheelchair he needs -- other prisoners have to bodily carry him out.
He's now being tested for latent TB:
