Let's mount the biggest, most massive, most unstoppable get out the vote effort and defense of voting rights in American history right now, right here in the state of Georgia. I don't want us to wake up on November 4th and ask ourselves what more we might have done. This is our moment.

Soon, wearing a blood-red tie will be as repulsive as wearing a Hitler mustache.

So hard to pick a favorite part of this article. Pretending that sending unsolicited dick pics at 53 was a “youthful indiscretion” is good, but don’t sleep on the argument that his wife forgave him for subjecting other women to unwanted nude photos so everyone else should too

Well, look. Vance certainly has a weird rapist boss who says a lot of crazy stuff.

Q: "Is Abdul El-Sayed a jihadist like the president said yesterday?" Vance: "Well, look, he certainly has a lot of weird friends. And he's said a lot of crazy stuff."

Evil diesel weasel. #RemoveTrump

In the least surprising news of the week, U.S. diesel prices rose for a second week after Trump announced a sanctions waiver for Russian diesel. The point isn't cheaper fuel. It's the theater of “hard choices” that reliably benefit Putin and rarely anyone else.

One of the most important financial stories out there if you want to know how and why the same five evil guys wind up owning everything.

For the fabulously wealthy, paying taxes is pretty much optional. They can borrow against their vast wealth, which is mostly an untaxed capital gain, without paying taxes. When they die, the capital gain goes to zero. And loopholes exist to bypass the estate tax too.

Another election is upon us in the United States, and it might be the most important election of our generation even though we aren’t voting for a president. This year we have the opportunity to put a check on power and corruption and change course. Vote blue on Election Day. #voteblue #vote

The good news is that we are winning in court. The bad news is that we have to win every case. Trump only needs to subvert one election to break democracy.

@gtconway.bsky.social unloads on Trump, Vance, and Ramaswamy over the vile attack ad against Amy Acton. "These people are so infected with Trump's sociopathy that they actually turn down any possible opportunity they have to demonstrate to the world that they have any decency."

I don’t think we should get used to a man this wealthy, this full of hate and this willing to demonize a small minority having so much power in our economy and in our politics. To defend democracy, we must defeat the oligarchs.

I do think when historians look back the period the exact moment where it flipped and started going the other way won’t be anything any politician did but my Minneapolis neighbors weathering the worst of the regime in the streets, rallying together, fighting back, and winning

Astonishing: Maxwell was willing to tell Blanche about some of Trump's rapes, and he ordered her not to. "Let's not talk about inviduals." WTF were they there to talk about? There's EVIDENCE on this.
