Woody Harrelson has done an ad "for Exxon". Well worth watching

"We should divorce the person of Elon Musk from this conversation. Musk is a uniquely dangerous individual and the fact that he controls SpaceX increases the national security risks. But the risks would still exist no matter who controlled the company."

One week until Election Day. America deserves better than the pedophile protection party. Knock doors. Make calls. Get your friends to vote. Let’s elect Democrats up and down the ballot and finally make Trump release the Epstein files.

"Most Israeli Jews now see the world the way Netanyahu has long seen it. That is Netanyahu’s great victory. But it is matched by his great loss: Much of the world now sees Israel the way Gazans see it" www.nytimes.com/2026/10/25/o...

You know it's true🎶 Everything Mike does🎶 He does it for Trump🎶 Hey Mike Rogers, when you see Trump today, show him this!

President Obama perfectly sums up Trump/MAGA: Cruelty corruption and incompetence. “After two years of chaos and cruelty and corruption and incompetence, the likes of which we have not seen in the modern era, you get a chance to say: Enough is enough!” www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/10...

“Ken Paxton is counting on you being too busy. Greg Abbott is counting on you being too tired. Dan Patrick is counting on you thinking your vote doesn’t matter in Texas. Prove all three of them wrong. Get your ass to the polls.”

Obama points out that while we may be struck with Trump for two more years, we are not stuck with a spineless Congress

The Executive Branch has no authority to regulate states’ election decisions as to candidate qualifications, and the choice to file a lawsuit like this just days before an election speaks volumes about the political corruption festering at the top levels of the DOJ.

Geez. I’m 20 for 20 on this one. Not only have I tipped over a wheelbarrow full of muck, I once lost my phone in a wheelbarrow full of muck. I looked like that scene in Jurassic Park III when they dig the satellite phone out of dinosaur poop. And, all my dogs & cats whoa.

New York City lawmakers approved a ban on horse-drawn carriages in Central Park after decades of backlash.

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.

I felt compelled to share this powerful video of my friend, Stuart, who spoke about how his Jewish faith calls him to condemn the Israeli government's injustices upon the Palestinian people. This is the courage we need to uphold justice and humanity. #CourageNow www.qasimrashid.com/p/a-story-ab...

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but no one with intellect should be taking political advice or any advice from Matthew McConaughey. If he wants to waste his vote, that’s his issue, but the rest of us will be voting to save democracy from MAGA fascism.

I’ve seen GOP TV ads saying the same thing about James Talarico. The TX ads go a little further saying Talarico wants to prosecute parents who won’t allow kids to have surgery. Does anyone really believe this shit??

“What makes this a national story beyond the clash with Judge Reyes is that the narrowing of public spaces is happening in parallel with the shrinkage of civic life under Trump….It would alter the public nature of the park as it has existed for more than 100 years.”

0MG, y’all I saw these signs in yards near downtown Cleburne. Also lots of Talarico & Gina signs in yards down Hwy 4 but I was going too fast to take pics. This gives me so much hope. Especially because I found out yesterday the GOP gerrymander moved my poll location 16 miles away.

Friends — It's time to defund Elon Musk. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/defund-musk

Ukrainian presidential advisor Serhiy Beskrestnov confirms Elon Musk's Space X crippled Ukrainian capabilities last night. In other words, the US deliberately sabotaged European defence operations mid-mission. Every country in the world should move away from buying American hardware ASAP.

Governor Abbott, I'll meet you at the Governor's Mansion next Thursday at 10 AM. If you're not man enough to debate me, you don't deserve to be the governor of Texas.

James Talarico on Texas officially banning THC: “Texans aren’t going to stop smoking weed and eating edibles because politicians in Austin say so. We are now telling full-grown adults how to live their lives. This is the nanny state at its worst; this is big government at its worst."

Potted puppy. Odd place to sit, but whatever.

I’m embarrassed. I think I lost IQ points listening to these people. They drove through flash flooding and are standing in the rain waiting for Trump, who is likely going to be later than usual. He can’t fix the weather, and we aren’t done with rain and flooding.

Let’s remind Hegseth of Casimir Pulaski’s example, in the spirit of 1776 that the Secretary touts. General Pulaski— the father of the American Calvary and hero of Savannah— was an intersex or trans Polish horseman who came to this country, saved George Washington’s life, and died for our Revolution.

🚨NEW EPISODE: The Supreme Court ruled that the Trump administration can once again use a flawed database to help Republicans purge eligible voters from the rolls, just weeks before the midterms. Some are calling it a partial win. I see a warning. youtube.com/watch?v=wvhm...

Yep, that’s what I think too. And if Paxton, Abbott, Patrick and French win in TX, I’ll never believe Musk & Paxton didn’t rig it.
