BREAKING: BRAZIL JUST HANDED THE FAR RIGHT ANOTHER ASS-KICKING. 🇧🇷 Brazil's Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva is projected to win a historic fourth presidential term, defeating Flávio Bolsonaro, the son of former President Jair Bolsonaro and an ally of Donald Trump.

RT if you've never had a tab of ChatGPT open, period.

Josh, you mean to tell me, in the US, in Oct 2026…you couldn’t find ANY BETTER MESSAGE to spend your precious political dollars on…than to punch down on ~7 people, who have done *nothing* to harm you…while there are masked, armed militia out here *kidnapping people off the streets*?? REALLY?

The Supreme Court’s decision decimating the Voting Rights Act threatens to return the country to a pre-1965 America, when white supremacy was the law of the land, and Congress contained no Black members from the South. “This has sent us back, in my view, over 60 years.”

Three days after the August primary, election workers in one Washington county went to check for late mail-in ballots. They expected no more than a few dozen. Instead, there were more than 500 — each a vote that wouldn’t count.

I was just looking at these Census stats. Workforce participation among Somali-American adults in Minnesota is actually higher than the rest of the population.

NEW: Blanche claims DOJ's Alaska lawsuit doesn't seek to block certification of the state's election results. The actual complaint says it does. His attempt to reframe the lawsuit is a bid to push back against how it's been correctly interpreted: a dangerous effort to subvert the midterms.

DOJ is suing to decertify Alaska’s Senate race—but only if Republicans lose. Trump personally ordered the lawsuit, he announced Friday.

Trump 2 has been the most incoherent period of economic policymaking of my life. Not close. @sykescharlie.bsky.social⁣ https://newsletter.platypuseconomics.com/p/admitting-im-an-immigrant-shouldnt

Excellent untangling of the Ukraine Starlink situation.

I'm an NIH scientist, I'm not anonymous, and RFK Jr is destroying NIH.

This is long. I hope you’ll read it anyway. I’ve brought the tea: claims of noncitizen voting, last minute pre-election charges; it’s the same tired playbook & it's failed before. They’re hoping you don't remember. But knowledge is power. Read here: joycevance.substack.com/p/the-reoccu...

He’s a MF of the first degree. Totally lacking in empathy, unable to see beyond himself. Definitely not of the character our president must have.

So Marine Corps vets who were poisoned only get compensated by the draft dodger if Republicans win. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Implementing Trump’s “big, beautiful” Medicaid cuts will be a windfall for firms like Deloitte.

Oops.

They DM'd us this 2 minutes before publishing their official statement

We were investigating Wedgewood for faking their data and emailed them for comment this morning, ahead of publishing the findings tomorrow. They are now trying to cover up their fraud with the "we were doing a social experiment" excuse. Full story here: blog.fiftyplusone.news/p/fiftypluso...

FWIW, based on things I heard during the transition, I find this reporting plausible. Not that it really matters what his private misgivings were/are, particularly now that the war is an undeniable fiasco. But amusing that it is aired in this fashion. www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Just disgusting: Sen Elissa Slotkin made routine comments about the need for a Dem Congress to impose real accountability on the Trump administration, especially mid-tier enablers, and MAGA ginned up a two-minute hate over it. But she's 100% correct. New from me: newrepublic.com/article/2168...

I think the billionaire class should start using its wealth for luxury items they’ve heretofore been convinced are too expensive—things like healthcare for all, equal education and ending poverty.

The obsession with keeping Black kids out of quality schools is really something else.

Finally! This should shift the dial

Says the guy to orchestrated an insurrection!

WHAT THE ABSOLUTE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE?

duck and cover, new englanders..

The Constitution to which every soldier, sailor, airman, marine, and guardian swears an oath protects religious liberty by prohibiting government establishment of religion and guaranteeing free exercise. It also prohibits religious tests for public office.

Glad to see President Obama and so many Democrats have spoken out against the regime’s sham “investigation” of Rep. Ilhan Omar. Makes the silence from the current Senate Democratic leader @schumer.senate.gov even more unacceptable.

Trump is the one who filed this lawsuit. Now he refuses to participate in discovery while his sons and daughter duck discovery subpoenas.

This story has more than 100,000 unique views.

The thing about Jan Crawford’s “diatribe” and CNN’s “heated” is, we all could see the whole exchange with our own eyes, but it suggests they’ve fucked up a lot of coverage of things we couldn’t see.

Stahl isn’t rich or famous enough to tell Bari to pound gravel? Nice job, Lesley.

Never watching that compromised show again. Who cares.

DEMOCRATS: "We're worried that voters are so distracted by the high costs of food and gas that they won't pay attention to the colossal corruption." DONALD TRUMP: "Hold my Diet Coke."

James Carville on Republicans who are done with Trump: "It's okay to vote Democratic. You have permission to do it. It's the right vote right now.”

Stand with Zelensky and against Putin. Stand with Pope Leo XIV and against ICE. Stand with No Kings and against Meta. Stand with the people and against the oligarchs. Stand with liberal democracy and against Trump.

The Venn diagram between people who told them to "shut up and sing" and people who voted for Trump is just a circle.

For you youngs who weren't alive for this: Understand that the Chicks were an early rollout of the far right intimidation that we see targeting judges, members of Congress, and ICE protestors now.

Tommy, after he got his ass deftly handed to him by Abdul El-Sayed.

I hope this video is an inspiration for you to get out the vote in the next two weeks. When we speak from the heart and engage with folks in the community, you’d be surprised how clear the contrast is between our vision for America and that of our critics. bsky.app/profile/abdu...

Yes, who can forget the violent Reign of Terror (September 5, 1793 – July 27, 1794) in France, which was famously conducted by unassimilated people from third-world countries? [Checks actual history.] Oh, wait. They were French. Yale owes the world an apology for this idiot.

Agree w Tom. I’ll stress it’s utterly pathetic of Trump to think of Russia as a peer when it is vastly inferior. What’s worse is that this overestimation is music to Putin’s ears, prevents him from recognizing that russia has lost in Ukraine, and inspires him to dream about even bigger conquests.

I was against Trump being Putin’s puppet before it was cool.
