Election Day is Tuesday, November 3rd! Have questions about voting? Take a look at our Election Day Q&A for what to know before you head to the polls: where to vote, what to bring, how early voting works, and who to call if something goes wrong.

After next week's election I hope a few leaders (& wealthy) will record their own version of the message I show in this article. medium.com/@danielfbass...

If you are voting at polling places pay attention to your ballot. This is one way they will steal the election. Tell your friends and family. I already voted. Dropped my ballot at a drop box. Received confirmation via email this week.

You may have heard reports that some voters aren't seeing the right candidates on their printouts after they vote. ALWAYS check your printout and make sure your candidate choices are right. If you have any issues, notify your poll site manager and call 866-OUR-VOTE before you leave the poll site.

I included this map showing the four sections of the library I've built since the 1990s in an article that I posted today at tutormentor.blogspot.com/2026/09/scar... In each section there are many sub sections, each with dozens of links to external websites and other libraries.

About time alternatives to Starlink were created. When will they be available?

Thought for the day. To reach K-12 youth in all high poverty areas we need to influence what business & donors do, not just what youth program leaders do.

I created this in the 1990s to show goal of business support for K-12 tutor, mentor and learning programs. It's still needed.

If you agree that connecting a youth w a volunteer tutor/mentor is a good thing, you need to understand how organized programs are needed to build and sustain on-going connections that reach K-12 youth in high poverty areas of big cities like Chicago. Read tutormentor.blogspot.com/2026/10/if-y...

The Washington Post reviewed a Heritage Foundation database of voter fraud cases and found 85 cases relating to allegations of noncitizens voting between 2002 and 2023. 85…over TWO DECADES. This entire administration is built on lies.

I wondered how much it costs to put innocent immigrants on planes to every corner of the Earth... this is a disgusting amount!

So sad and tragic. When I first started teaching, this kind of thing wasn’t even on the radar. Now elementary school children are the victims. We have to get things turned around in this country, gun control would help. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

I just gave $90 to help Dems win in November. Thanks Drump for the money. #Blue26

Rep. Delia C. Ramirez has introduced a bill that would abolish not just ICE, but the DHS altogether, repealing the 2002 law establishing the agency and replacing it with one focused on protecting civil and human rights.

Most any individual deserves a day of respectful silence when they pass from this earth. So if you are feeling, well, not precisely grief-stricken at the death of Mike Ditka, set this aside to read tomorrow to remind yourself why. www.everygoddamnday.com/2017/10/mike...

Whoever wins the governorships in the battleground states will certify the 2028 presidential election. There are election deniers running, in Wisconsin and elsewhere. We've got to beat them. My new NYT op-ed:

How tf did Zelensky end up as the bad guy in this when putin was the one who INVADED his country for no damn reason???

If you get $90 from Drump will you donate it to a Democratic candidate? I will. That could be a huge boost and another unintended consequence from a White House action.

This #NationalTutoringWeek, hear from aspiring teachers about how tutoring has shaped their practice and set them up for stronger starts to their teaching careers.

Meta is paying $17.1 billion to address harm to youth mental health caused by social media—and afterschool and summer programs are named as recommended uses of funds! As a founding member of Fund IRL, we’re urging officials to seize this opportunity: https://fundirl.org/

Michigan losing on last second TD is karma. Great win for Iowa.

I just saw the Drump TV ad paid for with my tax dollars. Unacceptable. It will take a massive voter turn out in November to begin to end this.
