For two years, student-led protests have raged against Aleksandar Vučić and his corrupt government in Serbia. Today, in parliamentary elections, he was toppled. One of the most sustained protest movements in recent European history has succeeded. Resistance works.

Fuck yes!

Bill Clinton: “I’m tired of the way we treat our allies like dirt. And just last week, President Trump finally did what he threatened to do when he first ran, which is to abandon Ukraine and embrace Vladimir Putin all over again.” I hope the American people are also tired of it

Fighting back, good

It is so important that European leaders acknowledge the truth as Kaja Kallas does here. Trump and the USG have been trying to force Ukraine to surrender for almost two years. There has been no recent pivot to Russia. It’s been a constant US policy www.euronews.com/2026/10/20/k...

Ukraine was winning the war, so Trump kneecapped Ukraine to help Russia. I wish it weren’t that simple, but it is. Our president is in bed with our enemies.

This is awesome

This is a major, major talking point on the right. Elon Musk rails against "suicidal empathy" and the term has caught on among millions. They believe that society is collapsing because we are tolerating too much and not punishing enough.

We’re back with our second story about how Trump’s purge of the FBI killed a sweeping bribery probe in D.C. This time, we take you to South Carolina, where two powerful politicians escaped scrutiny: Sen. Lindsey Graham and Rep. James Clyburn. THREAD 👇

140 days of protests triggered by a corrupt kushner/trump family luxury island deal… yet 🇺🇸 media is essentially crickets 🦗 🦗

Rally with us TOMORROW, October 18th in Detroit! 17 days to win.

We should support every one of these Democrats. I know I do. Compete everywhere. Fight for every seat. 💥 N🚫 Kings

Black women in America are more than twice as likely as white women to have a stillbirth. Getting physicians to take their concerns seriously is one reason for this disparity, they say: “If you’re a Black woman, you get dismissed.” From the archives:

If you’re advising POTUS to declare martial law, or use other executive powers in an attempt to interfere with a lawful election that you’re expecting to lose, you’re a piece of shit human and an even worse American. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

No, of course this conversation shouldn't take place in our constitutional democracy. But when it does, here's the master class.

Thank you to everyone who has already voted and to everyone participating in today’s No Kings Vote Early events!

Can the denial and wishful thinking about Trump and Russia finally stop now? But he’s trying for peace! (Telling Ukraine to surrender, trying to enrich his cronies) But he told others to sanction Russia! (Just a show—no follow up) But he’s sanctioning Russia! (No, Congress did and he removed it)

This is awesome. If your vote didn’t matter Republicans wouldn’t be trying so hard to stop you.

Talarico, Cooper, Ossoff, Brown, Peltola are good as far as donations go. Give directly to Jackson (ME), Hamilton (KS), Turek (IA), Osborne (Neb). Also, down-ballot donations are more impactful. Help flip state or local seats. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/15/u...

11 of 17 Starlink antennas were set on fire at a guarded facility near Sofia, Bulgaria. Two masked individuals reportedly carried out the attack. Infrastructure supporting Ukraine is being targeted across Europe with growing frequency. At what point does “concern” become a response?

Billions of dollars’ worth of contracts predicting oil would fall and the S&P 500 would rise were placed about 15 minutes before Trump announced a U-turn on Iran in a post on Truth Social. CFTC staff began to investigate...then were told to lay off. www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

So basically President Trump is helping Putin kill Ukrainian civilians to punish Ukraine for defending itself against Russian aggression and interfering with his PR strategy to cover up his defeat in the Iran War. Appalling.

Can we finally address that the senile old man is just fabricating imaginary deals in his head?

The United States is now officially allied with Vladimir Putin and Russia. We will fund Russia’s genocidal war machine in exchange for Putin helping Trump and the Republican Party in the midterms. One of the most shameful and disgusting days in the history of this Republic.

4% increase in imports from Canada would easily replace the entire physical volume of diesel “negotiated” in the new US-Russia pact.

It’s an NFL Sunday, which means it’s the perfect time to confirm your voter registration status. Or to register to vote. Or to request your mail in ballot. Then, vote early. But, vote. Like your life depends on it. Because in so many ways, it does.

MacFarlane: The Second Harvest Food Bank of North Central Ohio has got the same issue. Last year, they paid $50,000 for diesel to transport their food. Now, they’re paying $150,000 for the diesel to transport their food.

No fuckin' way. +Signed a baseball fan

A federal judge has declared that the Trump administration unlawfully terminated $7 billion in grant funding for clean energy programs in disadvantaged communities. insideclimatenews.org/news/2109202...

Our Pulitzer-winning "Friends of the Court" series began with this story that revealed how SCOTUS Justice Clarence Thomas had, for 20+ years, been treated to undisclosed luxury vacations by real estate titan and GOP megadonor Harlan Crow. (Published April 2023)

Abbott is not only contributing to the deaths of pregnant women, he’s hiding maternal death data. Texans who think women should live will vote for a new governor. #GinaForTexas #AbbottFailsTexas

Donald Trump. Corrupt as hell.

Here's how we get Medicare for All done: Make Medicare whole (no one can keep all the parts straight!) Include vision, dental, and hearing. Begin extending to more people, starting with children. We arrive at Medicare for All, which means great Medicare for everyone.

WATCH — @marshablackburn gives new meaning to running for office 🏃🏻‍♀️ 🐔 No debates with in the GOP primary. No debates with @jerrigreen4tn.bsky.social No town halls since 2017. Why reward her with your vote?

The Real Stories - not the GOP’s.

Just. Wow.

Possibly the best example of American democracy and governance in the era of Trump.

Stephen Miller’s Office of Remigration was deliberately named to announce to the world that white nationalism is now the basis for US immigration policy. If Dems win power, they should defund it. They should also defund third-country deportations. New from me: newrepublic.com/article/2157...

Trump stood at the UN podium and called Democrats “dumocrats.” The President of the United States, on the world stage, resorting to playground insults. This isn’t strength. It isn’t leadership. It’s embarrassing, and America deserves better.

Seattle just became the first city in America to ban grocery stores from engaging in surveillance pricing. This is a huge win for consumers against companies that abuse their personal data to rip them off. Watch former FTC Chair Lina Khan explain.

As a reminder, Democrats picked up 41 seats in the House in 2018, while losing two seats in the Senate. We should see a bigger pickup in both chambers this time, to put it mildly. But do not get cocky and coast here. Run through the tape.

RFK Jr. received "more than $250,000 worth of free flights to Fiji and Greece as well as use of a vacation home in Washington, D.C. from Gavin de Becker..." de Becker has been described as Jeff Bezo's "top security staffer" www.wsj.com/politics/rfk...
