please please vote before election day, and tell your circles to. Republican mayors and governors are watching this unfold and getting ideas.
Bolsonaro-friendly mayors appear to be sabotaging public transport on Election Day. Buses aren’t running in Lula-friendly areas, flights and ferries mysteriously canceled. Traffic lights have gone out and people’s power cut in Salvador, indigenous people’s travel restricted

Check out how easy this is.
Kansas Dem Sen. nominee Adam Hamilton on trans rights: “I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself”

Trump said he had to takeover Greenland to keep China and Russia out. And then he snuck Russia onto the North Slope. Literally just ... inviting them in. www.ft.com/content/e9cf...

What is the point of this completely misleading anti-Israel (wait, I just answer my own question!) “news” story? NONE of Steakholder Foods products is meat-based. It’s all plant-based. So stop with the evil Jewish conspiracy scare tactics! www.steakholderfoods.com

What the Attorney General of the United States seems to not understand, but the people who matter do, is that Congress hasn’t given DOJ any authority to block states from certifying the election. This isn’t a thing. And we don’t have to pretend it’s a thing just because he says it’s a thing.

A military-grade weapon designed to inflict intense pain has no place in immigration enforcement, and the Pentagon has no business testing weapons for this purpose. Secretary Hegseth needs to explain why the military is using resources on American streets.

One of the most cited studies supporting ShotSpotter was an op-ed vetted by the Tribune whose results were not statistically significant and published by a lab hired to initially operate ShotSpotter. Expect more of this tech-washing in the years to come. www.chicagotribune.com/2026/10/17/e...

It really needs to be emphasized that the woman Vivek is featuring in these videos fled with an accused & indicted child rapist and successfully helped him avoid trial for 20+ years.
even by normal oppo standards this story is bonkers — basically vivek and co (and acton’s shitty mother) are accusing acton of fabricating horrific stories of child sexual abuse that are clearly documented in court records
