Um, I just got knocked out of first place, please help! Votes count double for the next hour photography.maxim.com/t/KG7AWP5T
Did you vote for Mike Denison today?? Unlike our political elections, you get 2 votes per day & you can vote every day 'til the end. You can also vote from different devices, so phone and laptop for instance are different. All is free, but if you're a real baller, you can BUY VOTES more like Elon.

What in the actual fuck is going on here
Q: Ashley Hinson, who you're campaigning for tonight, says the Ramaswamy ad is 'absolutely terrible' and should be taken down. Why are you defending it? TRUMP: I'm defending it because I know that if that ad was about my mother, you would love every inch of it

Translation: I am ok with child rape
WOW -- Vance *defends* Vivek's reprehensible ad 👇 Q: Ramaswamy's campaign put out a controversial ad featuring his opponent's mother. Some Republicans are backing away. Do you think it was appropriate? JD VANCE: Well, I'll be honest. Whether the ad was appropriate or not is not really my concern.

I'm not kidding, the guy simply has to be at the very least deported at the end of this. If we're doing "he's not from here" shit, he is the most not from here guy alive. He needs jail or deportation the second it's viable to do it.
BREAKING WSJ: Elon Musk ordered the slowdown of the military-grade version of Starlink that Ukraine relied on.

I wrote about how the Meta No Kings blocking offers an urgent warning: If we're going to actually take on the billionaires (and we have to), they're going to fight back. That means we have to build a movement that can exist around them with the goal of expunging them from (controlling) our lives.

Behold: the UK/Commonwealth version of the cover of my upcoming book, "How to Build a Universe (Theoretically Speaking)"! You can pre-order this version from www.penguin.co.uk/books/458932... or from wherever you get books in the UK. Nerdy notes about the cover design to follow below.
Russia is only helping kill American soldiers a tiny bit. No biggie. They could be helping a lot more and I’d still support Putin 100%.
Trump: "My decision on Russia is simple... Russia is doing very little, if anything, to help Iran, compared to what they could be doing ... Zelenskyy is using refineries as a target, knowing attacks are seriously hurting ... He could have made better deal 2 years ago. His country is in shambles ..."

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.

Democrats don’t just need to win, they need to win by margins that make Republican ratfucking ineffective and pundits‘ efforts to downplay a mandate laughable. Pour it on. Do not let up.
Folks, I know it’s easy to get excited about all the polls showing Democrats ahead and feel like this election is a done deal. But we can’t take anything for granted. That’s why I’m urging you to take part in a No Kings early voting event today where you live. https://www.nokings.org/

🧵🧵🧵 The NY Times posted a 15-minute video today in which I got to tell NYT what’s wrong with its coverage. They said they saw my critical posts on Bluesky and invited me to do a video with them to air my grievances. Weird, right? I didn’t hold back. I blasted their sanewashing of MAGA extremism.
I feel like if schools were actually kidnapping children for 3 days at a time, the parents would be asking where they were when they didn’t come home on the first day.
Trump: "They want to cut your children. It's unbelievable what they do. Your son leaves as Jimmy and comes home in three days as Janet, and they don't even ask you. They can take your child out of school and do whatever the hell they want. Minnesota is one of those states."
Bro, if your doctor is doing a cognitive test every time you get a physical, there’s a reason for that, and it’s not because you keep acing them.
Trump: "I'm the only one that took the test -- the aptitude test or whatever. Every time I do a physical, I do a mental test. And I aced it. Where's my doctor? I travel w/ more doctors than any human being. If people get sick in the audience, they leave them alone. They call them collateral damage."

European politicians won't even get off X (neither will ours), but this should prompt an EU-wide attempt to expel Elon from the continent. And we need one here, too. You have to be Walter Isaacson to miss what's going on.
SpaceX’s Starlink speed cap is confirmed at 60-70 km/h on Ukrainian terminals which kills connectivity for all medium-range kamikaze drones: FP-2, Darts, Hornet, RAM-2 and others. It also impacts Ukraine’s drone interceptors that rely on Starlink to shoot down Russian Shahed-type jets.

I ask again, why are national Dems letting Elon "quietly" fund these races? We have two test cases. 2024 when Dems didn't make his money an issue. And 2025 Wisconsin, where they did. Guess which time they won by double digits?
