1,000 years from now, teachers will struggle to explain to their students how at this time in history, we found literally the most despicable human being in America and made him the most powerful person in the world

"There has never been an election since polling began in the United States where voters said corruption was their number one issue...This is seismic.” @milestaylor.bsky.social on the unprecedented dissatisfaction voters are feeling about President Trump and Republicans ahead of the midterms.

“They’re tired of it. They want change and they’re not getting delivered on anything.” @kimberlyeatkins.bsky.social weighs in on the “rising frustration” among voters, including Republicans, with President Trump as his approval sinks.

“We need to fix this broken system that has allowed all this corruption in the first place.” @repcasar.bsky.social lays out the priorities for Democrats if they retake the House including banning the wealthiest like Elon Musk from being able to bankroll entire election campaigns.

@theweekendmsnow.bsky.social @jonathancapehart.bsky.social You meant King Charles III., not King Charles II.!

First-rate threading!

@msignorile.bsky.social J.D. Vance is a chameleon!

America has become an authoritarian state.

Amid the Trump administration’s attempts to undermine the election, “the law is standing strong” @mawaldman.bsky.social tells @nicollewallace.bsky.social on @deadlinewh.bsky.social He notes “the courts have been very resolute” and “voters are going to be able to vote securely as they have before.”

Troy Jackson after Collins takes credit for rural healthcare cuts in big beautiful bill not being as bad as they could've been even though she voted to advance the bill: "Sen. Collins is like an arsonist who helped set the fire, and then she wants credit for bringing a cup of water to put it out"

Susan Collins repeatedly refuses to answer as to whether she would campaign with Trump in Maine

@lukerussert.bsky.social Bravo for holding Tillis’ feet to the fire on MMR vaccinations! 🙌👏👏👏

BREAKING: SCOTUS keeps the Missouri 2022 congressional map in effect for this election in an order that criticizes the Eighth Circuit's actions in the case. The five page, per curiam — unsigned order — came with no noted dissents. More to come at Law Dork: www.lawdork.com

@arimelber.bsky.social We are not “close to the Midterms”. We are “IN the Midterms”! People are already voting! The last day of voting is November 3rd!

@briefingwithpsaki.bsky.social “Give me Glenn Kirschner” @glennkirschner.bsky.social 😍👋🙌

@deadlinewh.bsky.social @chrismurphyct.bsky.social Could Don Jr.’s “wedding gift” from a Putin-allied Russian oligarch be a case of money laundering?

@bobcesca.bsky.social Did you catch @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social segment “Architect Stalls Trump’s Plan For Ballroom In Ireland”?

@joesudbay I hope you caught the very informative conversation about the importance of state legislature @sarahcurmi.bsky.social Friday morning @zerlinamaxwell.bsky.social

@msignorile.bsky.social Per your conversation @ddayen.bsky.social #Medicare, I recommend a conversation with Alex Lawson @socialsecurityworks.org

On Rational Security, @sranderson.bsky.social, @benjaminwittes.lawfaremedia.org, @juliacurlee.bsky.social, and @alexzerden.bsky.social discussed the week’s national security news, including a Russian drone guided by AI killing 3 Ukrainian civilians, new sanctions on Iran & more. youtu.be/ntmF21rDvMk

@theweekendmsnow.bsky.social Everything tRump does is aimed to distract the media/American people from the Epstein Files! FOCUS! #Epstein #Epstein #Epstein

A $6,000 lab-grown diamond now sells for $10. What might that tell us about AI—and the value of cognitive work? @svaneksmith.bsky.social and I dig in on the latest Off the Clock, along with inflation, jobs, and Chart vs. Chart. newsletter.platypuseconomics.com/p/how-lab-gr...

@shawnat.bsky.social A problem going all the way back to the times of MSNBC: Hire a professional with mastery of the English language, grammar and punctuation! This took the cake @theweekendmsnow.bsky.social

Today would have been Emmett Till's 85 birthday, but he was lynched in Mississippi. Mamie Till Mobley's courage exposed the brutality of racism in America & ignited the Civil Rights Movement. Today we also hold space for Nolan Wells and seek answers around his death. #Justicedelayedisjusticedenied.

@jeffersonsmith.bsky.social My condolences to you and your entire family 🙏! Your Dad was such a fountain of information and always the best guest to listen to, a true blessing to infinity and beyond!

@alexwittreports.bsky.social Democratic Primary NOT “Democrat Primary”!!!

@theweekendmsnow.bsky.social “…, what is the “Democrat Party”… There is no such thing as the “Democrat Party”! It is the Democratic Party! Shame on @jonathancapehart.bsky.social @eugenedaniels2.bsky.social (of Amber Ruffin shame), and Laura Barron-Lopez for not rebuking Brittany Martinez’s slur! 🤬

Israeli Settlers Killed My Son who is a US citizen--but the U.S. and Israel Did Nothing to prosecute killers. My MUST Listen conversation with Kamal Musallet about his son, Saif, who was beaten to death one year ago by settlers but ZERO justice! youtu.be/xN6uNaKieCs

@durbin.senate.gov Repeatedly you failed to rebuke Todd Blanche’s use of the word “settlement” when just yet a FL Judge ruled it cannot called a “settlement”!!! 🤬

So which does Trump do now? Claim it was fixed? Or call the U.S. World Cup team "losers," claim they would've won if he'd been the manager, and like Steve Bannon call Balogun "an anchor baby"?

A reminder: the largely admirable nation the "Founding Fathers" announced 250 years ago denied the vote to all women, most minorities, many poor whites. It enabled slavery, forbade laws to curb it 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 If you're not a rich white guy and you have rights - thank a liberal
