Hi Bluesky! This is my terrier, Rochester. He hopes everyone will get to enjoy the sunshine. ☀️

Alaska authorities strongly oppose the Trump DOJ’s attempted “interference” in the election. This is significant because there were concerns the state—which sought to DQ the second Sullivan—would take the same side. But it didn’t. Quite the contrary. buff.ly/EJHtDpX

Ukrainian rescuer Artem Khanat, 38, died on Oct 25, five days after being wounded in a Russian strike. He served for six years and received a presidential award for bravery in 2022. He leaves behind his wife, a one-year-old daughter and two young sons.

Republicans couldn't define communism with unlimited lifelines.

Trump admin arrests Colorado priest. Incarcerates him for over a year. Judge orders him released without charges. They release him without the wheelchair he needs -- other prisoners have to bodily carry him out. He's now being tested for latent TB: www.newsfromthestates.com/article/colo...

Another stunning defeat for a Trump-aligned right-wing leader in Europe. Serbian students voted out their authoritarian leadership after months of protests against corruption, taking their fight from the streets to the ballot box and turning people power into political power.

This is a man who knowingly took up Nazi rhetoric to gin up the hatred behind an ongoing ethnic cleansing of Haitian refugees from his own state.

HAPPENING NOW: 9th Circuit Oral Arguments on DOJ's lawsuit against California voters. DOJ is arguing that there is massive amounts of non-citizens voting, and the harm is irreparable because once the ballot is separated from its envelope, you can't trace it to the voter. 1/

It means the guy Alaskans are trying to get rid of.

Gaslighting 101: The AG is literally calling us crazy for thinking Trump will use the levers of government power to overturn the results of an election, when he has a documented history of doing just that. That’s tyranny.

Here’s another example of abuse. Same as the Dana Bash clip, he attacks her for not giving him time to speak, then gaslights her about what’s in his lawsuit. I bet a lot of women recognize this behavior.

🌊 DEMOCRATS ARE ON THE VERGE OF AN EARTHQUAKE. HOUSE: 🔵 Dems lead nationally by 8–10 pts. SENATE: 🔵 Dems have a real path to 52–53 seats. Here’s the key: Dems don’t have to sweep every toss-up. Hold GA, MI, MN & NH. Flip NC, OH & ME. Then win just ONE of TX, AK, IA or KS. That’s the Sen majority.

Eurasian Hoopoe. The Eurasian hoopoe (Upupa epops) is the most widespread species of the genus Upupa. It is a distinctive cinnamon coloured bird with black and white. The Eurasian hoopoe is native to Europe, Asia and Africa. It is migratory in the northern part of its range. 📸: @osman_erdem_56

We acknowledge that no one has the bandwidth for this, but if it helps: -It’s ‘sleight of hand’ -It’s ‘bated breath’ -It’s ‘lo and behold’ -It's 'buck naked' -It’s ‘brass tacks’ -It’s ‘free rein’ -It’s ‘toe the line'

there’s no such thing as “strategic bigotry.” I know this because there is no amount of money you could pay me to become a bigot. the democrats who do this agree to do it because they’re bigots

This admission alone is an impeachable offense

The child killed in her stroller was Angelina. She was 1 year and 2 months old. Her mother, Inna Mariukhna, 28, died later in the hospital. Inna was a primary school teacher and event host. Both were buried on Oct 21.

Ukraine was winning the war, so Trump kneecapped Ukraine to help Russia. I wish it weren’t that simple, but it is. Our president is in bed with our enemies.

"This is the story again and again as Trump tours the redder parts of the country: The venues are smaller, the crowds are less excited, and the man at the podium is weirder" — @paulwaldman.bsky.social

Musk just warned Democrats he'll "come for" anyone who investigates him. Look, that’s not a threat. It's a dare. If Dems win the House and don't hit him hard on Day One, subpoenas in hand, every vote we cast drifts away in fear. He called the bluff. Now they have to call his.

Q: The president is coming back to Georgia on Saturday-- OSSOFF: Good. It will remind Georgians of the president's failure

Trump: "We have been pretty happy with Russia that they have not gotten involved in Iran ... Russia and China have not participated or, participated in a much smaller way than they could have." (Both Russia and China have actively helped Iran fight America.)

NYT-Siena poll: Trump approval: Likely voters 36% approve 59% disapprove That's Trump's lowest approval recorded in any Times-Siena poll. More than two-thirds of independent voters said they disapproved of the way Trump has handled his job.

"Trump’s actual purpose was plainly not to increase US diesel supplies, or otherwise lower prices, but rather to make clear his intention to definitively change sides & become Russia’s wartime ally — & to undermine the sanctions regime against Russia the US worked so hard to implement over 5 years."

Four brothers went to war against Hitler. Three were killed. The fourth survived, and his grandson, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, is the president of Ukraine. Zelensky comes from a family that fought tyrants: Trump negotiates with them while demanding concessions from their victims.

"One of the reasons this war needs to end is because every month, 20,000 or 25,000 Russians are slaughtered as they try to advance in Ukraine." Marco, this is one of the very few upsides of Russia’s war against Ukraine.
