Trump’s goal is to intimidate me and get me to back down. That’s not going to happen. I will not be silenced, and I will not stop fighting for my constituents.

Latvian officials report that Russia & Belarus are backing criminal gangs to lure migrants via commercial flights to Moscow & Minsk, then forcing them toward forested EU borders. The goal: weaponise migration & destabilise the region.

So well said by Neil. He must have watched Talarico's town hall on CNN.

Neil Bush, brother of George W. Bush and son of George H.W. Bush, has posted a political message on Facebook for the first time, saying he voted for James Talarico for US Senate over Ken Paxton. Bush says he isn't just opposing Paxton, he has come to admire Talarico.

Susan Collins on Kavanaugh: "I'm very disappointed in his his vote to overturn Roe v. Wade. There was no way for me to anticipate that."

Now, Putin has proposed a summit with Trump and Xi to decide Ukraine’s fate for them, bulldoze a century of international cooperation, and frame Russia as an equal to the U.S. and China. We’ll see if Putin’s puppet continues to dance on his strings.

Republicans have a long list of people they want to disenfranchise, and Black people are at the very top. They're not subtle about it either.

Leaked audio: Michigan Republican Mike Rogers asking for officers at polling stations to intimidate voters "We called the RNC early and said hey... Let's put police officers, retired or off-duty police officers as our poll watchers in Detroit because go ahead, try to intimidate them. Please."

At the midterm Republican Convention, Ross Ulbricht spoke. Who is he? He created and ran The Silk Road, a dark web website that facilitated the sales of narcotics, illegal firearms, human beings, and any other illegal merchandise. He was sentenced to 40 years. Trump pardoned him in January.

Russia is now exempt from the Lindsey O. Graham Russia Sanctions Act. The US government is clearly allied with Putin against Ukraine. Vote Republican enablers out.

They’ll never ever take the blame for anything they’ve done. Never. Yet they are in charge of all branches of government, but never their fault. Wonder why Kashyap was in Russia the same time StarLink down? Speaking of Kashyap ….?

run by Russia's NoName057(16). According to ENISA, NoName057(16) later claimed responsibility for DDoS attacks against Israeli organizations as a gesture of gratitude to its partners. This is an example of an exchange of favors: coalition members attack each other's adversaries.

He is SO good...

James Talarico rejecting the mudslinging to focus on real issues like medical debt, public schools, and corporate corruption proves that real leadership isn't about red vs. blue—it's about standing up to the oligarchs. #momsky#sheshed

What I find the most repulsive of all of these book tour interviews is that Tillis only cares about his party winning. He never once talks about the American people it's all about the GOP keeping control. And his "regrets" about Hegseth, Kennedy and Blanche reveal his profound cowardice.

In June, Belgium’s diamond industry gifted Trump an 18-karat gold ring encrusted with 321 diamonds and 75 gemstones. A month later, European diamonds got an exemption from Trump’s tariffs. We don’t know where the ring is today. Where did it go? Did Trump keep it for himself?

Not sure if the point of Angela Paxton’s video was to cause people to search Angela Paxton’s name only to find out that she helped facilitate Ken Paxton’s corruption for many years before ultimately filing to divorce him on “biblical grounds”, but that’s what happened.
