Less plot twists, more peaceful mornings. Please and thank you. Trans women are women. Trans men are men. Trans rights are human rights.

Flávio Bolsonaro has been ordered to surrender his passports. The ruling was issued by the same Supreme Court justice who oversaw the trial of Jair Bolsonaro for his attempted coup. This gets better and better.

In about 24 hours, poles will open here in Israel. In what is a strong contender for Israel’s most critical elections. The election pits Netanyahu’s extremely unpopular coalition against a non-coherent, but moderately more liberal, opposition. Here are some thoughts as we head into it.

Lula has been reelected president, Brazilian media has now called. An extraordinary comeback for the left-wing politician who trailed by 2 points in round 1 but managed to hold off Flávio Bolsonaro, the former president's son.

CBS identified Illinois based Three Z Printing as the holder of the permit associated with the fake transgender mailers. One of the owners, Matt Zerrusen, is based in Dallas. His Instagram shows pictures with Charlie Kirk and Donald Trump, and comments from local Republicans.

hang on, so Bleecker Street was sold to a Pierre Omidyar-backed group that also happens to back Tosca Musk's Passionflix... and now "MUSK" is disappearing from theaters?

I said some mean things about Matthew McConaughey in 2021. Afterwards, I felt a little cringe & embarrassed about it. Since he made those innane statements about suggesting people vote for independent candidates in TX, I don't feel bad saying he lacks of integrity, empathy, & talent. It's true.

I honestly think there's a modest chance when Musk ordered speeds throttled they accidentally broke something and they can't figure out how to fix it

Ohioans know nothing worth having is given, you’ve got to fight for it. I’m proud to join labor leaders in Cincinnati as we fight for a government that puts workers before billionaires.

I do feel like one of the biggest underappreciated crime victories we've had is that since its peak in 1991, total official property crime has fallen by 60%. Not the rate. The total amount. As populations grew. The rate of property crime is down over 70% from 1991 to 2025.

Today, another American citizen & journalist was brutalized by Israeli settlers attacking Palestinians in the West Bank. This repeated violence & brazen impunity for attacks against Americans & Palestinians alike are unacceptable. When will Trump & Rubio DO SOMETHING?

One of the legislative races in watching most closely: Tricia Cotham, the lawmaker in North Carolina who flipped parties in 2023 to become a Republican & allow the GOP to ban abortion, is running for reelection.

Thank you to everyone who stood with me over the years. It’s been a scary journey but I have always been grounded in my work and ability to provide exemplary service to my constituents. Trump and his administration have been after me since I arrived in Congress.

BREAKING WaPo: Trump officials scrutinized Rep. Ilhan Omar in 2019. They didn't find citizenship issues. 
The earlier review of Omar's immigration records looked at many of the same issues being investigated now.

Heartbroken by Helen Branswell’s passing. I always enjoyed talking with her and reading her reporting. She sought the truth, lifted up science, and asked questions that mattered. Her loss leaves a tremendous void in journalism and public health. @statnews.com www.statnews.com/2026/10/13/h...

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

Ohio, we know what’s at stake in this election. This year, mail-in ballots need to be received by Election Day. Send it in at least 10 days early or drop it off at your county Board of Elections to make sure your vote is counted.

There is no scenario in which MAGA, Trump and the "Heritage Foundation" subvert Democracy in the United States. I can talk myself blue in the face about this. It absolutely will not happen for so many different reasons. If you want the #1, it's that Americans have compassion for others.

Ossoff: "The question was about the stewardship of tax dollars. And as we stand here today Rep. Collins is under federal investigation for the illegal misuse of tax dollars. For illegally funneling public money to his violent staffers girlfriend."

Just checking Bluesky to see if someone left the earthly world yet. (sigh) Oh well. Maybe tomorrow. May most of you have a lovely evening.
