I despise the fascists, nationalists, racists, bigots, misogynists, and isolationists. Trump is poison. I am trying to persuade Americans not to vote against their economic interests. Lawyer, Crossfitter, collector, gardener, granddad to a special girl.

It’s time for Illinoisans to wake up and let their government know this is unacceptable.

The state of Illinois has $125M in contracts with Deloitte Consulting LLP. Deloitte is backing a candidate in Ohio who is siding with a pedophile and his defender, punishing a woman for speaking out about sexual abuse. In Illinois, we’re paying them $16M to advise DCFS. cc: @politico.com

It seems a tad unhelpful to our soldiers and sailors that they are led by literally the dumbest person on the planet.

Ron Filipkowski@ronfilipkowski.bsky.social

But Trump says this isn’t happening because his good friend President Xi told him that it wasn’t and Trump said Xi would never lie to him because he respects him too much.

My message this morning is that we must all prepare for the moment Mike Johnson refuses to seat the new House members next January because the new majority will be Democrats. He is already on record as saying he will refuse to seat a democratic majority.

I wholeheartedly agree. Russia only responds to force, pain, and coercion. Russia will always do the wrong thing unless compelled by sheer force to act differently.

NATO's Rutte: The Kremlin is trying to divide us and to push us back from helping Ukraine. And our message is clear: keep calm, carry on, and continue the support for Ukraine.

Texans- please make sure you are registered to vote! October 5th is the deadline. Don’t let them steal your voice!

750,000 Texas Voters Disenfranchised Up to 750,000 Texans registered through the DPS online portal are missing from County Voting Rolls. Talarico “the government failed to do its job.” Registration deadline: Oct. 5. 🧵 www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Chipotle will never see a dollar of mine as long as they are teamed up with Palantir.

SEIU_ORG@seiu.org

Remember when Chipotle blamed menu price increases on wage increases while making tens of millions a year?? …that same Chipotle that shamelessly tries to silence folks who are uniting for a voice at work. Surprise surprise, looks like they’re now teaming up with Palantir to track employee illnesses…

It should come as no surprise that a 30 or 40-year Adderall and cocaine addict believes that the artificial stimulant of lowering interest rates when it is financially imprudent to do so will fix an economy suffering from excessive inflation.

I wonder how many millions of these people are waiting in the weeds, especially in red states, ready to crawl over broken glass to vote for Democrats this time. Hopefully numbers so high Mike Johnson cannot stop the certification of the vote on January 3rd, 2027.

The Tennessee Holler @thetnholler.bsky.social

⛽️ “What the hell is this? I voted for you. I won’t vote for you again.” Another Trump voter upset about the gas prices their president has given us for a pointless war. (From @fightforprogress.org )

If you don’t know about the importance of the place called Bab-al-Mandan, you will soon. Buckle up, America. You think Trump fucked up the Strait of Hormuz? You ain’t seen nuthin’ yet.

Angry@angrystaffer.bsky.social

I hope folks realize this Bab al-Mandab situation will be much worse than the Strait of Hormuz if it’s not sorted out quickly. And it doesn’t currently look like it will be sorted out quickly.

Superb contradiction here. It was teed up perfectly.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

SANCHEZ: In 2022, you argued giving Americans $1,400 under Biden's American Rescue Plan fueled 'waste & inflation.' Now you support Trump giving more than 3 times that. How is that consistent? BUDDY CARTER: It's apples & oranges S: How? Are you just supportive now bc the president is a Republican?

The postal workers realize what Trum’s real play is.

Lizardrath 💙@lizardrath.bsky.social

Popok reports on the postal workers filing a brief to the Supreme Court informing them in no uncertain terms that the Trump attempt…will lead to a CATASTROPHIC failure of the mails and make it impossible for voters to use mail in ballots! youtube.com/watch?v=SVk5...

Nothing says desperation quite like publicly committing multiple federal crimes at a political convention, soliciting votes in exchange for public monies.

DemCast USA@demcast.com

Trump says he will give every adult US citizen $5,000 if Republicans win the midterms. IDIOTIC & ILLEGAL to solicit votes.The felon is showing his desperation.

A review of the USPS shoddy software construction and hasty rollout of the mail-in voting rules is probably intentional. They want glitches and problems to pile up because they will end up delaying or losing mail-in ballots. Trump will use the dysfunction to try and take over all election machinery.

It’s not small potteries to the families and friends of the fallen. They would all still be with us but for Netanyahu’s possession of the videos of Trump raping children.

Adam Cohen (My Personal Views Only)@axidentaliberal.bsky.social

The heroes Trump called “small potatoes”: Cody Khork Noah Tietjens Nicole Amor Declan Coady Jeffrey O’Brien Robert Marzan John Klinner Ariana Savino Ashley Pruitt Seth Koval Curtis Angst Tyler Simmons Tyler Feehan Isabella Gonzales Angel Rampersad Michael Swinton Gabriel Edwards Benjamin Pennington

She is my personal hero today, and I have to be honest- it will be tough to unseat her. So proud of her efforts.

Christina runs a small preservation group in a corner of Texas most people fly over. She’s also the reason a billion-dollar federal contract is sitting untouched today. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/a-lipan-ap...

Love this ad. It’s different. It’s Michiganders speaking to other Michiganders.

"Money out of politics. Money in your pocket. Medicare for all." Sounds good to me, @abdulelsayed.bsky.social. Let's ALL get out there on November 3rd & beat the machine!!! Go to: iwillvote.com ☑️ or vote.org 🗳️

How long will it be until Bartiromo is offered a prominent position in the Trump regime? She checks all the boxes- loyalty above all else, disregard of her employment agreement to help Trump, breach of journalistic ethics, trashing her career to help the Orange Traitor..

In a sane world, the President would not tolerate Russia waging a proxy war against the United States. In a sane world, Congress would impeach a president who not only failed to respond to such an undeclared war, but focused his attention on a trade war against an ally by re-naming a fucking lake.
