You can do it in the US too, young voters
The achievement of Serbian students overthrowing Aleksandar Vučić can't be overstated. In 2024, they began protesting. In 2025, they transformed a protest movement into civil dissidence. In 2026, they became a political party — and two months later, crushed a corrupt state-entrenched authoritarian.

They don’t want to confront the rank racism that lies at the heart of today’s Republican Party and pretending that black voters are drifting away from Democrats and flirting with the GOP is an essential part of that.
pundits are basically bored by the idea that these democratic candidates are not meaningfully behind with black voters and so are trying to conjure a controversy into existence

The same people who insist on policing public bathrooms in order to protect girls from sexual predators are now calling a child rape victim, whose mother lost custody due to that abuse, a liar. loathsome
Trump: "Ramaswamy put up a very powerful Ad about a mother saying that her daughter, Acton, is a liar, and much worse. The Press is trying to get him to 'take down the Ad.' Frankly, anybody whose mother spoke about daughter that way would normally lead to the daughter being precluded from serving"

“Departures from these practices should never be countenanced because they risk allowing prosecutors to impact national elections.” -Todd Blanche on DOJ’s 60-day rule, September 2024
Q: The typical practice is DOJ doesn't usually release charges this close to an election. Even though Ms Lucas isn't on the ballot, her daughter is. Can you speak to the timing? BLANCHE: The 60 day or 90 day practice is not in writing. That's not part of the justice manual. There's nothing improper

I'm delighted by the fact that for the rest of his life, Stephen Miller won't be able to eat a restaurant meal without wondering whether it contains, shall we say, off-menu ingredients.
Stephen Miller claims Somali-Americans in Minnesota are "buying Mercedes, buying BMWs, they buy a nice house, all their kids fly first class all over the world" (This is a lie!)

tommy did not get paid $250k to disrupt el-sayed's event. tommy's dad TIMMY's LLC was paid that amount. whether timmy gave tommy a cut is unknown at this point.
Huge follow-up reporting to my scoop: The Guardian confirmed America Next—the conservative nonprofit founded by Bobby Jindal that was offering students $ to disrupt El-Sayed events—paid a firm registered to Tommy Teepell’s dad Timmy $250k for “canvassing and influencer marketing” against El-Sayed.

Sadly, people stopped donating to Democrats after smear campaigns against ActBlue took hold. (There’s not really another way to donate to democratic candidates. You may say “directly to the campaign,” but those go through ActBlue as well.)
Warnock: "I worry that Democrats are missing a real opportunity to invest in a serious & sustained way in the South. If we would just lean in and stay in through the election & after the election, the kind of victory you saw us achieve here in Georgia, it is achievable in a place like Mississippi."

Whoever wins the WH will help determine critical questions: who reaps the gains of AI, whether the tech can be used for mass surveillance, and how much power a handful of tech companies can have over US society. Not great if prez is bedfellows w/ tech oligarch and ppl who don't believe in liberalism

A rule announced Friday reverses the Biden administration’s 2024 ban, allowing sport hunters to lure black and brown bears with food. This teaches bears to associate people with food, putting hikers, campers and the bears themselves at risk.

SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.
