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

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”

The press still asking for an honest answer from Trump is cosplay journalism of the worst kind.

I'm old enough to remember when Jared Kushner thought it was a good idea to use the Russian embassy to conduct secure communications during an American presidential transition

Anyone remember when grocery stores in the '70s were offering a 70/30 mix of ground beef and soy TVP for sale? I don't recall how much cheaper it was, but we certainly had it on our table.

Again: Why does Musk have operational control over any *military grade* version of anything. That’s not how DOD contracts work.

If this is accurate, Elon lied about not having control over Starshield, and he lied about the administration making the decision. More importantly, why is a private citizen even *able* to make decisions that could hinder US military operations?

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.

🚨🚨🚨 Q: Is there any scenario in which DOJ would try to block states from certifying the election? AG TODD BLANCHE: Yes, of course. It is not DOJ's intention to improperly interfere with elections or the state certification process, but ...

I just cannot imagine a mother so full of hate for her own child that she chose the man who raped her 12-year-old daughter over her own kids then after her daughter made it through all that, the mother would pop up years later to once again try to knock her back down.

The messed up thing is Amy Acton didn't even make her childhood sexual abuse a center piece of her campaign she was focused on the issues, vivek brought it up because he can't win on the issues.

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.

Trump's Department of War has reportedly authorized the DHS to test using a heat ray that burns human skin at the southern border.

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.

shauna@goldengateblond.bsky.social

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

Remember Tommy, who asked El-Sayed if he disavowed the Muslim Brotherhood? He worked for Hawley until February 2026, then became Political Director for failed Kansas GOP candidate Philip Sarnecki. His father, Timmy Teepell, is a longtime GOP strategist who worked for Jindal and Hawley.

as for the "sentient" stuff, it proves exactly how out to lunch Musk is: stuff like this isn't an "intelligence" problem, it's a perception problem how are you going to know where your landing zone is on the other side of those vehicles, especially with just cameras? bsky.app/profile/nied...

Russia is cooperating with Iran. So why is Trump cooperating with Russia? Like the diesel deal, this decision is a gift to the very forces attacking our service members.

twistmeyer.bsky.social reposted

Donald Trump is aiding and abetting Russia, which is helping Iran kill Americans in a theater of war. This is the literal exact definition of treason. Literally.
