Dem's report includes a new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old woman, then promised her a visa and admission to NYU while demanding silence, lied about kicking Epstein out of Mar-a-Lago and "strongly suggests that Epstein introduced Trump to his wife Melania." www.rawstory.com/melania-trum...

A student walking to school ended up needing surgery after agents stopped the wrong person. This demands an independent investigation and accountability.

This is Mike Rogers’ lifestyle. How about yours?

On November 3rd, 36 states will elect their next governor. The outcome of these races will make a real difference in the lives of millions of people — but only if you vote. So join me in electing @demgovs.org: democraticgovernors.org

At the end of this year, I find myself incredibly grateful for everyone in my community who stood with me and supported me. I could not have continued to stand and fight in court without my community standing with me. Thank you.

Volunteers in Minnesota told me the smallest crowds this year are bigger than the largest crowds in 2024. People here love Peggy Flanagan - a mom, a community organizer, a fighter for working people getting crushed by corporate power. I was so excited to campaign with her!

At a time when fascist tech zillionaires are using their obscene wealth to fund the entire Republican Party, it's absurd and self-defeating for any Democratic politician to oppose this. This isn't rocket science. They're the bad guys! The people want you to fight them!

I said that this was a Russian trope at the time in testimony to Congress and am glad to see this excellent documentation of Russia’s use of Vance’s vocal chords.

Night Russian attack on Kharkiv Region killed two people ‼️ ​Russian drones destroyed and damaged private homes in the town of Korotych. ​A man and a woman were killed, and 11 other people were injured, including 2 children. Witkoff approves.

With Trump's removal of Starlink, Russians are now hunting cars full of people in Kyiv, using jet drones for which Ukraine's interceptors no longer function to stop. Three people murdered an hour ago in southern Kyiv, with six others injured, three of which are children.

Talarico: "We just found out that [Elon Musk] is almost single-handedly bankrolling this effort to install Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate and defeat this movement...Elon Musk wants our land. He wants our water. He wants his very own personal United States senator. He is trying to buy Texas."

UFW condemns brutal ICE surge in Central Valley; calls on Valadao’s comments as ‘insulting’ to his constituents. Full statement below. 1/2

Russia struck a school in Rivne, killing one person. Yes, a school, you read that correctly.

Please remember to vote! Your voice matters. 🌊

We’re having a Wizard of Oz moment on social media right now so pay attention. Yesterday, Ukraine attacked data centers belonging to Yandex, Russia’s biggest tech company.

Minnesota stands with @ilhanmn.bsky.social 🩵 No president should be able to weaponize the federal government against his political enemies. 📍 New Rally Location 📣 Join us at 4:00pm today at Powderhorn Park Rec Center to stand with @repilhan.bsky.social and all Somali Minnesotans. #IStandWithIlhan

"Papa, don't die." That's what a 5-year-old cried after an ICE agent fired seven shots into the car carrying him and his father in New York City, striking his dad in the neck. @adriancarrasquillo.bsky.social reacts to the agent's history of alleged excessive force and unlawful arrests.

Important info for California residents given Prop 40. Make sure your CA friends and family see this so they don't get tricked into opposing 40. Our state is awesome and only a handful of crazies would want to live elsewhere because of this initiative.

Heartbreak in Springfield, Ohio. Please read this important reporting. It all begins with big lies and it ends with ethnic cleansing and deaths for which we must not only mourn but feel ashamed. www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

ICE's shameless stupid cruelty continues unabated. Here's a truly wrenching account from our wonderful local Vermont newspaper, which I imagine could be multiplied a thousandfold every day across America. Many thanks to Liza Cochran, its author bravelittlevoices.substack.com/p/terror-in-...

I recommend people read this to get a sense of the president's grave cognitive impairment. Trump is either unwilling or unable (or maybe both) to answer the questions he's actually asked, so he just rants and raves while the interviewers do their best to provide structure to his random brain firings

There is a moment at the very very end of Abdul El-Sayed's podcast with Ezra Klein (book recommendation section) where he talks about the idea of "speaking truth to pain" and this will be staying with me for an extremely long time. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/25/o...

This anecdote--not the episode, which goes in a totally different direction--is hilarious& cute. But more importantly, it poignantly illustrates SO many things that I work on. 1) How endlessly creative kids will be in route around child restrictions, and how ineffective parental controls are. 1/

I wrote this to try and bear witness; I hope you'll read it. If you do, I hope you'll later find some quiet to think about this man, pray for him if you'd like, and then find out what you can do to help those impacted by this violence and terror in your community.

Our music and our memories are being wiped out. AMERICA built this city. Not a president. Join us!

After nearly two years of economic failure and broken promises, JD Vance’s midterm pitch these closing weeks is “give us another chance.” The American people cannot afford another round of this - and the good news is we don’t have to.

All of Trump’s endless crimes pale compared to the precious time he has not just squandered but dedicated to turning up the heat. This is mass murder on an incalculable scale.

Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

Reminder: Mitch McConnell hasn’t been seen in 3 months.

Yuh-Line Niou, who served in the New York State Assembly, was present at the ceremony today and is correcting the misleading narrative surrounding @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social & @aoc.bsky.social many right-wingers are shamelessly using to weaponize the 9/11 event👇🏽

WATCH— @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social: “The MAGA experiment has been a disaster… I was a Republican most of my career, Trump hijacked the party and turned it into a fascist movement.” MAHER: “Do you think you’ll ever go back?” LONGWELL: “Under no circumstances.”

WATCH — Dr. @abdulelsayed.bsky.social : “I love that you’re all asking questions about health care… All you in the press, you hear?? These students are talking about health care. Stop asking me about Hasan Piker.” #MedicareForAllNOW

There's still more work to do. Let's get started today. Get Sarah Longwell's new book, "How to Eat an Elephant: One Voter at a Time," today:

Lots of coverage of Trump on renaming New Mexico, New America. But people are too polite to point out Trump has no interest in renaming New England or New Hampshire or New Jersey or New York. It's Mexico and Mexicans and Latinos he wants to taunt. It's childish idiocy, but it's also a dog whistle.

There have some very, uh, unique and interesting candidates in recent years, but this one in Florida might take the cake:

Obvious point: The Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, are far better Americans than Donald Trump and JD Vance and Stephen Miller.

A lively conversation with Tim Miller--on Trump walking straight into the data center backlash, on the complete and total disgrace that is Pete Hegseth (but Tim puts in a word for Marco being even worse!), on why Dems can win the Senate if they play offense...and more! youtu.be/Is8V0JNBa2g?...

We are a broken nation. Hundreds of thousands of Haitians were living and working legally, paying taxes, and contributing. Haiti remains wholly unsafe. But Trump hates Haitians, and the White House wanted videos of Black people in chains, so they stripped them of status and turned on the cameras.

Why we should NOT be reassured by the idea that Trump very likely won't be able to rig the election. The fact that he's trying is very, very bad and there's no guarantee he won't succeed.
