Don't kid yourselves. The Republicans are going to refuse to seat winners from the Nov 4th election, if they're Democrats or DSA... www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfrI...

HHS wants a new Medicare code that pays doctors extra only when they attribute a patientโs symptoms to a vaccine. Vaccine critics say doctors are paid to push vaccines. We arenโt. Under this code, weโd be paid to blame them. My new piece in @cidrap.bsky.social: www.cidrap.umn.edu/childhood-va...
Oh dear, here comes the bubble: Microsoft is soft-firing employees, to try to get together money to pay the crippling bills on their "AI Infrastructure". How long before we're all running Linux? www.cnbc.com/2026/10/26/m...

yup.
This weekโs main story is about how more and more white nationalists, antisemites, and Nazi sympathizers seem to be integrating into the Republican Party, how some of them are currently running for office, and how old you can be for JD Vance to consider you โa very young boy.โ

THIS is how morally bankrupt the Democratic party's controlling "consultant class" is. This is the kind of people to which Democratic party politicians are listening. And worst of all, Ygelsias is not, by far, the worst of these people
A helpfully clear exchange here Hasan: "So your argument is that [Minnesota ICE protesters] should stay at home because immigration is a salient issue for Donald Trump. Opposing ICE is only going to help Trump. Wait until we win the election in 2028." Yglesias: "Yes that is what I would have said"

So now they just donate to their front organizations/PACs, and while politicians still know where the money came from you don't.
The pro-Israel lobbying group and influential political donor announced it would no longer endorse candidates or give directly to campaigns, instead mobilizing its members to give individually. n.pr/4iayI7k

If youโre reading this, youโre probably a target of NSPM-7, Trumpโs effort to criminalize all resistance. Itโs time we got organized to fight back. The NSPM-7 Defendantโs Union presents a collective defense pledge, repression tracker, handbills, and more. crimethinc.com/NSPM7Defenda...
Democrats: Desperately trying to pull defeat, from the Jaws of Victory.
We all know what โprotect girlsโ sportsโ means in the 2026 election cycle. DCCC coordinating on an ad using that language is unacceptable, and it gives other campaigns permission to follow. This is an inappropriate use of party resources. (1/3) www.erininthemorning.com/p/dccc-relea...

The band is still scheduled to play: Tune Up Bar in Bozeman MT on 10/23; Bearded Monkey in Yakima WA on 10/25; Lost on Main in Chico CA on 10/31; the Whisky a Go Go in West Hollywood on 11/2; McGuffie's in San Diego on 11/5; and The 44 in Glendale AZ on 11/7.

Get yourself mentally ready now. There will be blatant, out front election fraud. Your vote won't matter... Only your willingness to [๐๐น๐๐ฒ๐๐ธ๐ ๐ง๐ข๐ฆ ๐ฉ๐ถ๐ผ๐น๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป] to get your vote back.
Around a year ago, Dominion voting systems who sued Fox News for libel and won, was bought by a right wing operative. You can read about it here. Our elections are not secure. They are not free and fair. And they never have been. dailycaller.com/2025/10/10/s...

The best part of the human race comes from Neanderthals. It's the "Homo Sapiens" part of our DNA that's violent, selfish and just outright evil. We get everything we consider good about ourselves from the Neanderthals.
