This is great news. But everyone needs to vote like pro democracy candidates are 10 points behind. Do not take your foot off the gas.

Trump promises $8 billion in diesel aid for farmers. So, he breaks it, causes a worldwide fuel crisis by starting an unnecessary war and then β€œsaves them” by promising a bail out. Just like last time he was in office. Got it. πŸ™„

Vivek is a dirtbag. He has proven that over and over again. This, however is a new low. He had to reach into hell for this one.

Vivek Ramaswamy has taken responsibility and put $4 million behind an ad in which opponent Amy Acton's estranged mother calls her a liar. Court documents show Acton's stepfather was arrested for raping her as a child and her biological mom lost custody. ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/10/21/r...

They Fing break everything they touch.

JD Vance lecturing anyone about corruption is beyond parody. He says Trump rejects people getting rich off government connectionsβ€”while Trumpworld reeks of self-dealing, pay-to-play politics, family profiteering & convicted fraudsters. Corruption isn’t a bug in Trumpworld. It’s the business model.

Bank of America, Draftkings, Kroger and Johnson & Johnson are among the companies funding Vivek Ramaswamy's despicable ad attempting to exploit the family tragedy of his opponent, who was raped as a child.

Judd Legum@juddlegum.bsky.social

Ramaswamy has produced an attack ad weaponizing the rape of his opponent, Amy Acton, when she was 12 years old. It features Acton’s mother, who abandoned Acton after she was raped by her step-father, fleeing the state with her husband. Here is the corporate money helping fund that ad.

REMINDER: Rep. Ilhan Omar came to US in 1995 when she was 12 with family as part of asylum program. She became a US Citizen in 2000 at 17. She got married 9 years LATER on Feb. 12, 2009 at 26 years old. She did NOT marry her brother or anyone to become a citizen. She ALREADY was a citizen!

POLITICAL RETRIBUTION Federal agents raided Congresswoman Ilhan Omar’s DC home this morning. A sitting member of Congress who has repeatedly been targeted by Trump, now facing a federal investigation over immigration paperwork her father completed when she was a child. A CHILD.

Two days ago, after Trump’s latest attempt to whip up violence against Somali immigrants in Minnesota:

Ilhan Omar@ilhanmn.bsky.social

Trump’s obsession with demonizing the Somali community is dangerous and reprehensible. Hate to break it to him: Somali Minnesotans are resilient. We will not let Trump intimidate us. Our neighbors have our back.

CNN on the last jobs report before the midterms: "It came in cold -- surprisingly cold. Job growth weaker than expected, unemployment unexpectedly went up, and paychecks aren't keeping up with prices. This was disappointing all around."

The Trump administration was too stupid to realize that cutting food safety programs and firing thousands of public servants would have shitty consequences. Watch.

39 days until the midterms. Meet 39 Democrats who can help us flip the House blue in November.

Please God, do this! Someone has to be the first and don’t let up! The press owes this to all of US. If we could be in that room we would do it. But because we don’t have the access, you guys must do this for us!

Trump treats WH reporters like shit. They should respond in kind. No more deference. Talk back to him. Tell him he just lied, and didn’t answer the question. Correct him. Confront him with reality. Ask him why he surrounds himself with sycophants. Ask him if he’s lying or just crazy.
