DATE: Thursday, October 29, 2026 TIME: 10:00 AM ET (14:00 London · 15:00 Paris · 22:00 Hong Kong) Live Online! Link: www.democratsabroad.org/vote_abroad_...? Focus: To make sure everyone knows how to get their ballot in and counted.
www.commondreams.org/opinion/dem-... If the Democrats are able to win one or both Houses in the next Congress, they have real opportunities to advocate popular policies and highlight the promise of the Democratic policy agenda. Like the popular idea of Medicare for All.
www.youtube.com/shorts/vREC_... If it's not Don, Jr., it's his onetime fiancee, Kimberly Guilfoyle! In the closing weeks of the 2026 Campaign, Democrats are focusing heavily on the massive corruption of the Trump regime and linking it to concrete problems in voters' everyday experience.
One strength for Democrats in 2026 is that the large states of Texas and Florida that had been safely Republican are now looking more like swing states! Justin Vassallo summarizes that situation with a focus on Dem Senate nominee Angie Nixon of Florida. www.commonwealmagazine.org/vassallo-ang...
David Rothkopf and Norm Ornstein have some pointed comments about current Republican corruption. Ornstein co-authored a book in 2012 about what a mess Radical Right Republicans were making of US politics, called "It's Even Worse Than It Looks." youtu.be/PtZ53C9jdnA?...
youtu.be/1lJgTL4JVlk?... Ryan Grim and Emily Jashinsky of "Breaking Points" give a status report on the state of the election coming Nov. 3, less than three weeks from now. Short Version: It's not looking good for Republicans!!
Obama shows his support for Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed. Obama has experience in successfully countering dirty campaigning calling him a Muslim and a terrorism sympathizer. youtu.be/3PnLoO79feM?...
Trump's Department of Homeland Security raided the home of progressive Minnesota Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar, apparently in an effort to revoke her US citizenship. As Politico reports, "Omar is far from the first opponent of Trump" to face legal procedings. www.politico.com/news/2026/10...
The American Prospect looks at the implications for both media and politics of the oligarchical purchase of Warner Bros. by Paramount for press and movie quality and diversity. And at the dubious business assumptions behind it and its political implications. prospect.org/2026/10/08/d...
It is sometimes said that God works in mysterious ways. The same is true of a lot of today’s Republicans, including House Speaker Mike Johnson, who says, “the most dangerous candidate for Congress right now [is] the Democrat running as a so-called moderate.“ www.peoplefor.org/rightwingwat...
Many Democratic progressives understandably have reservations about CA Gov. Gavin Newsom. But he responded the way any responsible Governor should to Trump's statement that Iran "could take out a city. Let ’em take out Los Angeles. Let ’em take out San Diego.” thehill.com/homenews/cam...
This MS NOW segment does some person-on-the-street interviews of voters sour about Trump. There’s the obligatory clip of Trump, here saying the last two years have been the most consequential of any Presidency. Yeah, Lincoln, FDR, JFK – dull, dull, dull. :) youtu.be/f6rURAF2JEs?...
Republicans repenting of their political sins – usually when they no longer have a practical possibility to undo them – is one of the artifacts of the Trump 2.0 regime. Here is Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina promoting a new book telling us how bad Trump is. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...
