In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.

Spent the morning door knocking for my local candidate. I had a conversation with someone who had decided not to vote. They’re going to vote, and vote for my candidate. ✊ It feels good to volunteer. Go do it!

BREAKING: We're challenging the DOJ’s attempt to preemptively block Alaska from certifying their election results if President Trump’s preferred candidate doesn't win.   The Trump administration doesn't get to reject election results it doesn't like.

Volunteering for a local candidate (further down ballot the better!) is your second step after voting. Those candidates affect your daily quality of life.

Trump’s own appointees asked the government’s election security agency to secretly hack a voting machine and send the results to the White House. Thankfully, the career staff refused. And the people who actually could have done it had been laid off by DOGE. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

The “every accusation is a confession” thing is maybe overstated but when it comes to Republicans and “sharia” it is unquestionably the case that the people trying to impose their religion on others through the legal system in the US are not Muslims bsky.app/profile/qasi...

Soak this in. If you know anyone planning on doing the worst - voting republican or not voting - share this with them to ponder. A reckoning is upon us and we better vote for the survival of our country. It is beyond time to stand tall no matter what is thrown at us.

This is beautiful. For anyone worth their salt who has taken the leap to run for office, this is what it’s about.

This letter I received is what this campaign is all about. Susan Collins is out of touch with what Mainers are going through — and she’s making it worse by rubber-stamping Donald Trump’s agenda...

❗❗❗Mark Zuckerberg's meta just suspended the No Kings Instagram account. I just rushed back from my local No Kings to jump on this. Bottom line, would be helpful for all pro-No Kings folks to elevate the issue and help us get the word out about No Kings today. The Nerd Reich strikes again.

Early voting starts today in Nevada! Let’s make record turnout! 🔵🌊🌊🌊

The United States is actively helping Putin murder civilians in Ukraine. Trump is doing everything he can to force Ukraine to surrender to his friend and ally Putin so they can be subjugated by the Russians again.

The time for early voting is NOW! And remember to vote in all the races, especially the local ones. Hope is good, but Change needs ACTION. When you go to polls, take a friend or two with you.

Somehow, Pres. Obama never fails to uplift my weary spirit. Listen to him & then go vote early to win back our nation. “That's what hope is all about. It's never blind optimism. It's grounded in a clear-eyed recognition that tough things happen and the world is deeply imperfect.” #VoteEarlyPlan

Ossoff: "When the congressman voted for this Medicaid cuts, the largest in history, he knew that 50% of all births in our state are covered by Medicaid. He still voted for them. And as a result, a labor and delivery unit in his own district had to shut down. He also supports a total ban on abortion"
