It is *NOT* over. Vote, don't even consider sitting this one out. Vote for the close elections, vote for the elections that aren't so close. Hell, vote for the landslides to make them more of a landslide. Let's make November 4th be a very happy day. Vote everywhere!!!!

Trump did this. This is America now. 8 armed men to violently arrest & "disappear" a 15-year old girl. Is she here legally or illegally? Will anyone ever know? Will we ever see her again? This is why, atleast, you need to VOTE for a better America. We used to be good. We can be again. Go VOTE!

WELCOME TO NAZI AMERICA

Trump doesn't want loyalty. Trump wants fealty. The difference is simple really: Fealty only goes one way. Loyalty requires two people to value each other and stay true. Trump is only true to himself. So please stop saying he wants loyalty. He wants fealty.

Of all the blatant actions, like the fictional $5,000 bribe, this is right up at the top. You know how unpopular F³OTUS' war is, so... "In an Oct. 8 Truth Social post, Trump vowed that “we will not be attacking Iran at any time prior to the Midterm Elections.”" (The Daily Beast article) But after?

Trump's rally was so very damaging today, I have to wonder if we will see him with ANY candidates between now and election day. Trump is toxic, even for Republicans.

How it is done!!!

Meanwhile, pro-democracy, pro-Europe protesters in Tbilisi, Georgia, are tonight nearing their 700th consecutive day of protest against the pro-Russian government. They haven't missed a single day in the last 23 months.

This is basic, but it needs to be shared. A trillion dollars is 1,000 billion dollars. A billion dollars is 1,000 million dollars. That is whyElon Musk can spend 1/2 billion of the election. He has 999 1/2 billion dollars left over. Until his stock goes up a dollar or two, then he makes it back.

Just want to point out: Donald Trump is 4 months older than Amy Acton's mom. Just because I was curious and so many people are saying they look so much alike. So they are not long lost siblings...maybe cousins? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I'm impressed with Vivek. There was so many ways to do things right. He managed to miss every single one. Then he threaded the needle on the worst one & proudly defended the indefensible. He could write a book about how to be reprehensible. Because, he will have some time after November 3rd.

Could you just imagine if enough Red states pull away from Trump? I mean like an unheralded shocking surprise, and the Democrat end up near 66? #ImpeachConvictRemoveBar

Elon Musk has spent close to 1/2 BILLION dollars to keep his empire earning noney under Republicans. That should be incentive to vote appropriately.

It isn't that JD Vance doesn't know about the Budapest Memorandum, it is that he is gambling none of the voters know about it.

This post is unavailable.

Trump is on the ballot? Vote Republican if you support: Protecting pedophiles. Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Spending tax dollars on ballrooms & arches. Buying Russian diesel after they helped Iran kill American armed service members. $4+/g gas & $6/g diesel. Rising inflation & interest rates. 🤢🤮💀

Meta glasses are *THE* perfect example of a massive failure in this high-tech era. They only asked 2 of the 3 important questions for a product. They forgot to ask the last question. 1) Is there a market? 2) Can we make this product and profit? 3) Should we make this product?

Amy Acton was raped as a child by her step-father. Her own mother took her step-father's side. And Vivek drags her out of a squallid pathetic life so he can...what? Have an excuse for losing the election? Because this sealed the deal. By by con guy!

All these articles talking about "users fleeing Truth Social." No, they went up in smoke when Ukraine attacked the Russian Bot farms run out of their Yandex datacenters. Turns out about 30% of the MAGA world was a group of Russian Bots. "My MAGA buddy was a bot?" I'm not even a little surprised.

JD Vance has one guiding principle: power. He will lie for it. He will debase himself for it. He will insult his own family for it. I am not sure there is anything he wouldn't do for it. *THIS* is exactly the type of man that should never have power. Not. Ever. Remember this in 2028.

Remember, Trump asked you to "put him on the ballot." That includes: corruption, ballrooms, lake America, Gulf of America, a re-developed golf course in DC, Concentration Camps & mideast wars. It doesn't include: lower prices, cheaper gas & diesel, lower interest rates, or more jobs. Or allies.

My brain cannot process this level of corruption. She was being paid $50 million to engineer a pardon from Trump *while working at the Justice Department* as a "Special Government Employee." And it worked. He got the pardon, and she got the money. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/20/u...

OMG. As if inflation, interest rates, energy costs all rising and layoff were not enough... Home re-sales have dropped to a new low, and new home starts have dropped dramatically too. Very bad. We are about 3 days from Wall Street reacting by my normal estimation. finance.yahoo.com/news/us-pend...

finance.yahoo.comUS pending home sales tumble to record low in SeptemberWASHINGTON, Oct 20 (Reuters) - Contracts to purchase previously owned US homes plunged to a record low in September as rising mortgage rates depressed demand for housing.

Trump admits, on Truth Social, Russia is only helping Iran a little... While we are at war with Iran. That was his explanation to help Russia. This is the closest to the Constitutional definition of Treason that I have ever seen, and may very well be enough in a court of law.

Today it struck me. Why this era in US History is so bad. The bribery, quid-pro-quo, berating allies & coddling enemies & dictators, the sexual assault. All of it. It is that they do it out in the light or day. They are proud of their crimes and debauchery. There's no such thing as shame for them.

Dear Canada, We are sorry to hear about the military training exercise accident. Please accept our condolences. We still love our great neighbors to the North. Be well, The *People* of America

Supporting Russia and killing innocent Ukrainians... Isn't quite the campaign strategy the Republicans think it is. But here we are. #OperationObliteration #LandslideHarder
