The people of Serbia celebrating the defeat of the dictator who held full authoritarian control of their country for nearly 14 years. This is what democracy looks like.

Good news for melanoma patients! The first ever mRNA vaccine to target cancer is in our near future. ~15 yrs ago, patients w/advanced melanoma survived for a few months. A successful Phase 3 clinical trial showed that intismeran reduced the risk of recurrence by 42%. 🧪 archive.today/pp6mX

Elon Musk has spent more money on American elections in the last two years than George Soros has in his entire life.

Reading thru an ex-Google exec's deposition unsealed last night, these excerpts stopped me cold. Brings questions of IAB's independence, especially given its silence on Google's antitrust violations. And little hope it'll speak up about Meta's sweeping new commercial terms. 1/2

Defeating the global incumbency curse when people have every reason to be furious at the status quo is hard. And it requires making clear who, exactly, is behind our woes and that you will fight with all your might for working people.

Bobby Pulido, running for Congress in Texas, is more than a quinceañera singer. The 53-year-old Tejano music legend is the Democratic nominee in a freshly gerrymandered swath of Texas. While the race to unseat his Republican opponent once seemed an uphill battle, polls now consider it a toss-up.

NEW: The group behind Cornel West's 2024 ballot push was wholly funded through Elon Musk's dark money network, according to Sludge's review of tax documents. readsludge.com/2026/10/26/m...

‼️ This is important. If you can, don’t wait until the last minute to vote. Check when early voting opens in your state at vote.org/early-voting-calendar and plan accordingly.

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

Amanda Nelson linktr.ee/AmandasMildT... "Congress banned armed federal agents at the polls in 1865, and that law still stands. The administration’s intimidation plan has less power than it wants you to think, and millions of Americans are already voting through it."

NEW: Last week, Elon Musk capped the speeds at which Ukrainian hardware could stay connected to a military-grade version of Starlink, “rendering some offensive drones and interceptor drones virtually useless.” Gift link to article here: www.wsj.com/world/ukrain...

NEW: New Mexico AG @nmdoj.bsky.social has sued Jeffrey Epstein's longtime lawyer & accountant: Darren Indyke and Richard Kahn, for their roles in faciliating the financing and concealment of his sex trafficking operation. www.cnbc.com/2026/10/21/e...

@askdinadoll.bsky.social explains why New Mexico's civil action against Epstein's trustees could be significant: beyond seeking documents, litigation may allow attorneys to question people with firsthand knowledge under oath and examine the financial structure of the operation.

Vivek Ramaswamy’s personal moral pillar let her own daughter be raped over and over by the child’s stepfather. Then she killed kittens. Now he wants Ohioans to praise this disturbing woman.

It seems like it should be a bigger deal that Jared Kushner reportedly had a secret Dubai bank account with hundreds of millions from Azerbaijan, and allegedly used it to pay a warlord, a mercenary, and a former hit man. We only know because Russia hacked his phone.

The contribution limit for an individual is $3,500. Elon Musk, a government contractor, is trying to purchase Congress. Billionaires are smothering our elections for their personal gain. Get big money out of politics.

Not worth the paper it’s written on.

Raw Story: The DOJ asked a judge for a delay that would keep the warrant for the unusual raid on the home of Rep. Ilhan Omar secret through the midterm elections. This says all you need to know about how legitimate the warrant was. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed

The indictment of Virginia State Senator Louise Lucas is a case study in racism, sexism, and hypocrisy. The charges relate to her efforts to secure a state cannabis sale license—and she is being held to a standard that does not apply to Donald Trump and his family. youtube.com/shorts/8K1Vu...

I've been screaming for months for Democrats to do this. I can't tell you how happy this ad made me.

NEW AD: Have you seen these anti-Talarico attack ads? Elon Musk paid for nearly all of them. The world's first trillionaire knows if he drags the most corrupt politician in Texas across the finish line, Ken Paxton will owe him everything. Elon Musk: Texas is not for sale.

BREAKING NYT: The Trump Justice Department has opened a criminal investigation into Corey Lewandowski over accusations that he personally profited from his role as a top adviser to the Department of Homeland Security, according to two officials with knowledge of the situation.

Early voting is an opportunity to make your voice heard before Election Day. Check your state’s voting schedule, choose a convenient location and make a plan. Democracy works better when participation becomes a priority. #Pinks 📨✨ — Pinks Global

The Russians hacked Jared's phone. Then Dutch cyberspies then reverse-engineered that hack, giving them unprecedented access to his world. Bananas story in @vanityfair.com

Today marks 2 years since I started HRT. 2 years since Ken Paxton and the rest of the Texas GOP lost the control they had over my life and I was finally allowed to be myself. I’m proud to say that I voted against my attempted killer today. Fuck you, Ken.

Voters who Googled how to donate to Talarico got an AI answer that led them to give to a different senator. A network of fake news websites seeded messaging about state & local candidates that AI answers picked up on. My story on how the AI midterms are going: www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

What the Attorney General of the United States seems to not understand, but the people who matter do, is that Congress hasn’t given DOJ any authority to block states from certifying the election. This isn’t a thing. And we don’t have to pretend it’s a thing just because he says it’s a thing.

Just as a private equity firm buys out a corporation and strips it for parts, a consultant class is raiding the Democratic Party and getting “generationally wealthy” along the way New from me and @adambonica.bsky.social newrepublic.com/article/2163...
