The rigged system in DC is allowing career politicians to become multimillionaires while Alaska families struggle to afford basic necessities. It's time for term limits. It's time to ban congressional stock trading.

Comey: Well, they're back again. It would almost be funny if it weren't such an appalling abuse of the DOJ. One that we cannot become numb to. Nothing's changed with me. I'm still innocent. I'm still not afraid of these people. And I still believe in the independent federal judiciary.

Everyone keeps asking me how I’m feeling about early voting so far. I’m feeling like nobody *actually* knows anything, and this is the most important midterm of our lives. I’d rather be us than them, but we can’t get comfortable. We can’t get complacent. Go vote like we’re down 3%.

El-Sayed on Trump's cognitive tests: "I went to medical school...In my neurology unit, I would have to give that MoCA exam...The only people that you give a MoCA test to are people who you worry may have cognitive deficits. By definition, if you're taking one of those tests, something's wrong."

A stunning defeat for a Trump-aligned right-wing leader in Europe. Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić, whose government cultivated close ties with Donald Trump and his family, has conceded defeat to a student-led opposition movement in a historic parliamentary election.

No wonder he canceled all those wind projects underway, and is such a big proponent of fossil fuels. Dude's a walking conflict of interest (and a greedy, arrogant, mean spirited jerk); he's holding our country back, endangering all our lives, and "laughing all the way to the bank," as they say.

Big Oil profits have skyrocketed since Trump launched his Iran War. Meanwhile, Trump himself owns up to $81 million in oil and gas stocks — which have increased in value by 43% since the end of 2025. When Trump says "we're making a freaking fortune," understand who he is really talking about.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton was a primary architect & driving force behind the organized movement that ultimately won American women the right to vote in 1920. She died on #OTD in 1902 & never got to vote in her lifetime. Because of her (and others), we can. #VOTE #WomensRights #WomensSuffrage

Of course Trump** did that. Shame on those Catholic leaders for not anticipating that 🙄
