Something to keep in mind when voting
The Senators we elected this year will serve six-year terms. That means the Senators we elect in November have a choice: Allow an automatic 22% cut to Social Security benefits, or finally force the rich to pay their fair share. Who do you trust to make that choice?
American here; since trump has come out as a Russian asset I would not blame every ex-ally if they crossed these people today
Canadians have had ENOUGH of Trump’s ambassador Pete Hoekstra! 🇨🇦 Over 275,000 have signed a petition demanding his removal! Canada is a sovereign nation, not Trump’s 51st state. We deserve respect, not threats and interference! #ElbowsUp #CanadaStrong #USDemocracy
Again gobsmacked how the race to the bottom has sped up
Putin has proposed talks with Trump & Xi in China to negotiate Ukraine’s future without Ukraine. The proposal follows Trump's decision to ease Russian diesel sanctions, waive congressional sanctions and pressure Kyiv to halt strikes on Russian refineries.
I am gobsmacked by how low this country has gone in what seems like a minute. Just stunning the republicans are all in on the race to the bottom.
The Federal Election Commission just revealed that Elon Musk sent $158 million to a GOP Super-PAC in the month of September alone… If you want the Trump-GOP nightmare to end, you must vote in such great numbers that even Trump billionaires cannot buy the midterm elections! THE. MORE. YOU. KNOW. 💫
You cannot tell me otherwise This man is great for NY! People vote blue straight tix; Blakeman will do everything to destroy this

New York everyday she is working for us Make sure you are registered and vote in NYS
We secured $1.875 million from Dollar General after they unlawfully charged consumers higher prices than advertised. This money will go to Foodlink, a Rochester-based nonprofit dedicated to ending hunger and building healthier communities.
New York in particular Vote blue and do not let Blakeman near our state government. He is Trump don’t let him fool you. He will frack the sht out our state, hardwood in the Adirondacks say good bye to. Clean water and rivers gone. Any supports gone. He will fk over the cities. Don’t stay home
“Every election is determined by the people who show up.” ― Larry J. Sabato
No matter what the Republican is saying and Blakeman is the worst liar Vote blue and let’s get rid of this sht
Billionaire families have spent $1.7 BILLION on the 2026 midterms so far — a 5,200% increase since the 2010 midterms. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day. Big Money is the root of our dysfunction.
Hey New Yorkers! Pay attention and let’s keep Hochul Tish and DiNapoli! Vote blue down ballot. Let’s not put the Republicans in, his only job is pardoning the trumps. They will vote, make sure you do too
New York! Ahead of election season, my office is sharing some key voting dates. Your voice matters! Make a plan and get out and vote.
You alllllll best vote. They will so show the fk up! Do it early if you can, but do it
HUD sent $WFC a letter "saying it would examine whether the bank violated fair lending laws by favoring Black or other minority homeowners, according to a copy viewed by The Wall Street Journal. @wsj.com www.wsj.com/finance/bank...
Cover up in plain sight
Alarming — 🇺🇸 Senator @chrismurphyct.bsky.social denied access to military facilities in the Middle East: “Unprecedented. Hegseth is trying to cover up the extent of the damage from a war spiraling out of control. This should be unacceptable to everybody, Republican or Democrat.”
Hey New York!! Vote republicans out. It’s worthwhile to vote, yes your vote counts. Register, check your registration, let’s do this; no Blakeman
Your vote is not small to the people spending millions to make sure you never cast it. They know what happens when working people, young people, women, and every fed-up voter show up together. We flip Congress. They lose control. That’s the whole assignment. #BlueWaveIn30Days
ground.news/article/a-gu... Be real interesting to see how this trump rally goes Also what spin will he give this
Dear democratic citizens You must vote in November, you simply must vote Register check your registration make a plan and let’s prevent him from gaining this seat
Trump could nominate the worst person with a law degree in America and this Republican senate will confirm that person. That includes Susan Collins, who always confirms Trump’s justices. The only chance you have to keep that person off the court is to elect Democratic senators.
JFC just everyday bullsht and criming
PSA: The Trump administration changed the form used to register and request absentee ballots, removing the checkbox for US citizens who have never lived in the US(even though some are eligible to vote under state law). The change could block eligible voters and was made without proper public notice.
JFC Texas, you tried red, it ain’t working so go back to blue!!
4,000 people packed a Talarico rally in Paxton’s own backyard. Now AP reports Paxton’s out-of-state travel has cost Texas taxpayers at least $1.9 MILLION just for his security detail. 275+ trips. About 730 blank workdays on his calendars. #USDemocracy

Hoodlum is right! Check if valid in your state, then go register to vote. Down ballot elections are as important, if not more important, then federal elections. Keep your guardrails up in your state and community.
IMPORTANT: There are 15 states that require in-person registration 28–30 days before an election, meaning this maybe your last week to register. Check your registration at Vote.gov.
They said the would kill it, and it’s gasping its last breaths We need Medicare for all
The US Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services said on Tuesday it canceled 315,000 Obamacare health plans covering about 760,000 people last month, citing unverified citizenship or immigration documentation and suspected improper enrollments. 🧵 www.reuters.com/legal/govern...
Coming soon to NYS You best get out and vote, Blakeman has already promised to frack And it’s not just the site that’s ruined it’s pipelines through your property like it or not and it’s huge refineries that belch poison smoke Get the fk off your asses and vote blue down ballot
Ohio’s only national forest is being opened back up to fracking. The federal government just leased oil and gas rights beneath nearly 2,800 acres of Wayne National Forest for about $11 million, the first competitive lease sale there since 2017.
Fk paramount and fk this regime
The FCC will allow the sovereign wealth funds of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, & Abu Dhabi to own nearly 50% of a merged Paramount-Warner Bros — potentially giving them sway over our media. This of course comes after Trump received gifts or struck business deals with these countries. See the problem?
Has one republican spoken out against this Just one
An armed person lunged at Amy Acton, Ohio’s Democratic nominee for governor, & injured several people at a fair. Acton & her husband were not harmed & “are grateful for the swift, decisive action of law enforcement and are praying for the recovery of those injured,” #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory
www.ms.now/deadline-whi... Absolutely vote dem and expand this fkn court
This is for registration and not a requirement for anyone who is already registered to vote One caveat I do believe first time voters after registering need to show ID. Only first time voters
NY State is now required proof of identity They are asking for a driver's license number, if none they want a valid photo ID, if none, a current utility bill, bank statement, paycheck, government check or other government document There is no current law for this. Just fear of the felon 47.
Can they be anymore obvious I would suggest if you are a Democrat living I. A red state Check your registration status today and then weekly Particularly states who handed over the voter rolls
Texans check your voter registration, especially those in Dallas, Collin, Denton, and Tarrant counties. From the article: Suspended voter registrations span the whole state, but these Blue/Blue leaning counties are targets: Dallas: +129,000 Collin: 56,000 Denton: 56,000 Tarrant: + 73,000
ground.news/article/fbi-... It’s FINE Jesus the possibilities for abuse are endless
Get Dems in power all offices and make DC a state; ffs imagine people do actually LIVE there
President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump are scheduled to watch Sunday’s Freedom 250 Grand Prix as the cars whip through downtown Washington, D.C., including a stretch along Pennsylvania Avenue not too far from the White House. https://to.pbs.org/4xgv6Xw
