BREAKING: We're asking the Office of Special Counsel & State Dept IG to investigate reports that diplomats' promotions hinge on how they vote & who they donate to If true, that's a political loyalty test & the law bars it @democracydefendersfund.org complaint 👇

This is a rare moment of bipartisanship. And a reliable indication that Darline Graham is a horrible, inexperienced nepo-candidate.

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."

TRUMP: “We didn’t start the war with Iran." LIAR! You illegally started the war on February 28 by assassinating Iran's Supreme Leader without Congressional approval. You even gave it a name: Operation Epic Fury. You said it would take 4–6 weeks. It’s been 8 months.

What happened to #spellingbee??

Audi’s CEO drew heavy criticism for appearing alongside US President Donald Trump at a campaign rally in the battleground state of Georgia, with the head ‌of Germany's top union saying it violated the automaker's company guidelines reut.rs/4zdZlj0

MAGA was ok with racism, cruelty, theft, rapes but when it affected them with higher prices and inflation the shit got real to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

Trump knows he’s at risk of losing political power. That's why he instructed the DOJ (unprecedented) to begin suing states — “red” and “blue” — to baselessly plant seeds of doubt about this next election. California will not stop defending democracy.

Catholic bishops praying over Trump are part of the Epstein class. Pass it on.

Art Spiegelman using AI because - in his own words - he felt too lazy to create something new using his own skills. I don’t think I can even process that. (Below: Self-Portrait with Maus Mask, by Art Spiegelman, 1989.)

Bahni Turpin and Guy Lockard are two of my favorite #audiobook narrators. #TLsky #booksky

I love a good narrator. I would never listen to a genAi-narrated audiobook, just as I would never read a book with Ai-generated text or cover art.

Fuck AI audiobooks right into the ground. Performances by human actors will ALWAYS be superior.

No kidding. I'm waiting for the headline "Trump's medical device strapped on his butt to make him walk raises eyebrows".

Yeah….This needs to be spread widely

Dallas ISD pulled those books, and hundreds of others, for review in the wake of an August news conference in which Lt. Gov Dan Patrick threatened to crack down on libraries that have “vulgar” titles in their collections. bit.ly/3U42EKj

HOW is sitting kids in front of a computer a "book-rich curriculum"????

That's why they need you new adults to take out monster student loans and car loans and mortgages...If they can capture all your time with working to pay it back, you don't have time to change your world. And it is your world.

I'm a doctor and a dad. I rebuilt Detroit's health department, led Wayne County's Department of Health, Human and Veterans Services. We put glasses on kids, took on corporate polluters, eliminated medical debt. It just shouldn't be this hard to get by in the richest country in the world.

By moving to the “center,” Democrats have failed to fight the forces that led us to Donald Trump: widening inequality, economic insecurity, and the unchecked political power of corporations and the rich. Political centrism is nonsense. There is no middle ground between democracy and oligarchy.

Putin’s trolls are again looking to help Donald Trump and the GOP.

Trump is sending his FCC goons after the media who report that his polling SUCKS because he's evil and destroyed the economy while losing his war of choice in Iran. It won't work. VOTE! www.reuters.com/business/med...

⚠️ Thousands of North Carolina midterm ballots are set to be rejected. Why? State Republicans passed strict new mail voting rules right before a crucial deadline. It’s a stark example of how GOP-backed voting restrictions can directly disenfranchise eligible voters: https://demdock.com/4zcjqpC

Murderous criminals calling each other "humanitarians."

As the Trump administration makes plans to task private debt collectors with going after millions of student borrowers in default on their federal loans, officials are reportedly pushing for the effort to begin after the midterm elections — as many Trump supporters are likely to be affected.

Canadian cartoonists have a killer sense of humor . . . LOL

Musk literally said he would end world hunger if someone laid out a solid plan for it. Some brilliant think tanks submitted how it could be done for a fraction of his wealth... And he just didn't do anything or acknowledge it at all. Take billionaires to the guillotines.

"A world in which the White House is allied to the Kremlin was, until now, the stuff of paranoid fiction. Manchurian candidates and red presidents were fantasies, dark tales Americans told themselves like ghost stories... "But this alliance now exists." www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...

Ten years ago today. In just the last few days: Trump made a deal for the U.S. to buy Russian diesel, an economic lifeline for Putin; he and Elon Musk blamed each other for an order that slowed down Starlink satellite connectivity over Ukraine...

Defiant Utah Lt. Gov Deidre Henderson is “going toe-to-toe” with Donald Trump, “60 Minutes” said.

Hear us out: The richest person in the world should not be allowed to dump hundreds of millions to affect the midterm elections. This is not a radical idea. We need campaign finance reform.

Terrible Jobs Numbers! Remember that on Election Day!
