Non-compliant pro-democracy Dem

Fingers and toes crossed! May justice prevail!

🚨BREAKING: We have moved for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction enjoining Trump from continuing to unconstitutionally impose themselves upon election administration procedures that the Constitution and federal law assign to the States.

Rio de Janeiro today. Fascism has failed in Brazil!! This is wonderful news for the entire world. Now it's time for the people of Palestine and of the United States to defeat the Zionists and the Republicans. Fascism kills humans and other living things. Democracy helps them heal and thrive.

More than a million Oregonians rely on the Oregon Health Plan, our state’s Medicaid program. Christine Drazan voted against legislation to help fund it. I’ll keep fighting to protect OHP coverage for every family who needs it.

@johnlegend.bsky.social: "When Vivek Ramaswamy hears of an indicted child abuser who fled the state rather than face charges instead of siding with the victim. He takes the side of the abuser…Do we want a man with this sort of depraved moral compass to lead our state?"

Horrific racism

Nobody wants to look back at this election and regret not doing more. We can’t afford to take anything for granted with the midterms while Trump threatens to sabotage them.

Vivek Ramaswamy’s ad targeting Amy Acton’s childhood sexual abuse backfired. It prompted Ohio’s largest newspaper, The Plain Dealer, to reverse its policy on political endorsements and endorse Acton for governor.

Trump is getting more Insane Everyday....

The evolution of JD Vance’s political mindset, in 4 steps: 1. This guy Trump seems like Hitler. 2. He sure is popular. 3. I want to be popular too. 4. I want to be Hitler too.

"Given enough time, every institution takes on the character of its leader. Trump is a cruel man, he leads a cruel movement and only the total defeat of both can free the nation from their malign control." I begin the day agreeing with @davidfrenchjag.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2026/10/25/o...

Going through old notes today, I was reminded that the NY Times' Peter Baker wrote in January that Trump had "changed the definition of normal." It helps us understand NYT's shortcomings when we realize it accepts the idea that Trump gets to decide what's normal.

An administration serious about countering antisemitism would not repeatedly normalize antisemitic tropes and conspiracy theories. We have an obligation to call out antisemitism wherever it exists — and when it comes from the president it’s especially dangerous.

Since I have criticized legacy Jewish organizations for being unwilling to call out President Trump by name for antisemitism, I also want to highlight one organization that did.

There are real issues of antisemitism & Jewish inclusion in certain schools & teachers’ unions. And if you believe that public education & the right to organize/association still matter, know that this politicized report is part of the effort to destroy both. jewishpublicaffairs.org/jcpa-respond...

A powerful evening with Yair Golan, Naama Lazeemi, Gilad Kariv, Nimrod Sheffer and thousands more!

Today is 24 years since the terrible accident that took the life of Paul Wellstone, his wife Sheila, their daughter Marcia, and five others; Will McLaughlin, Tom Lapic, Mary McEvoy, Richard Conry, and Michael Guess. I remember the moment that I heard the news.

He and four relatives who live in the U.S. were flying back to “reaffirm Israel’s democracy,” he said. “This government is digging the hole deeper every day,” he said. “The first thing the new government needs to do is put the shovel down.”

#operationwingsofjustice "Hadar Susskind, 53, said he wants a new Israeli government to reverse course in the West Bank and Gaza, halting settlement activity and settler violence in the former and allowing for reconstruction in the latter. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2026/1...

One benefit of holding leaders accountable for crimes is that if Flávio Bolsonaro tries to overturn this election, he knows exactly where he’d end up. In prison, next to his father.

In 3 days, Netanyahu will be history. He and his racist, fascist clowns will face the courts on their way to jail, and Israel will belong to its people again. The insanity ends here. Israel starts the shift to a brighter future, and the rest of the world must follow! Video by Amir Goldstein

turns out that voting is a very good way to kick right wing authoritarians out of power

Turnout in Brazil was 81 percent today, up from 79 percent in the 2022 election.

That would be a catastrophically dumb move for Putin, but he’s definitely been hinting at provocations in the Baltic States. He’s also the one stoking the fires of the protests in France, so there’s that.

President Obama on Iran: Let's think about this Iran war. The original rationale was, we're going to go in there and get them to give up their nuclear program, their nuclear weapons.

Political appointees at the Department of Homeland Security wanted CISA, an agency that protects election systems, to acquire and hack a voting machine, which shocked staffers. “This goes against everything CISA represents,” a former official said.

Ohio, let's do what we can to elect @amyactonoh.bsky.social as your next Governor and @sherrodbrownoh.bsky.social as your next U.S. Senator! They’ve dedicated their lives to fighting on behalf of all Ohioans.

A Democratic Senate means real checks on Trump’s corruption, a real fight for lower costs, and real accountability for this administration. If Republicans maintain their majority, they’ll be one step closer to locking in their power. Don’t wait for Nov. 3. Vote early.

⚡️️️️️️️Mass blackouts reported across occupied Crimea. According to satellite imagery from NASA FIRMS, the Taman substation in Russia's Krasnodar Krai — a key energy node supplying electricity to Crimea —was damaged in an overnight attack.

Important point from @mjtoma.bsky.social: All those media claims of "bipartisan" opposition to the vile Ramaswamy ad are overlooking support for it from most right-wing figures. This will get worse. "These are sick, twisted, cruel, sadistic, and psychotic people." newrepublic.com/post/217049/...

Another day, another Trump press advisor forced to resign. Britt McHenry, a State Department press adviser who previously worked for ESPN and Fox News Media, caught on camera throwing her drink at a fan during a basketball game and blowing kisses to the crowd while being escorted out. Only the best.

How the press has failed us ... "for going on ten years now.

The Justice Department's last-second letters about noncitizen voting contain people with no history of voting whatsoever, and they're moving so fast they sloppily sent one county the wrong list of names.
