I was Director of an ICU that administered an experimental drug to last chance melanoma patients once. It’s a terrible disease. This vaccine news is a modern day miracle if it works like promised. Don’t you just LOVE science?!?! 💕❤️💕❤️ wapo.st/4et1aQB

Imagine tapping the screen for your chosen candidate and watching the machine switch your vote to Marsha Blackburn. Voters in Tennessee are sounding the alarm. Check your review screen carefully before you cast your ballot so your voice is actually heard. #TrumpsCrimesOnYourDime

Hello Californians, You should have gotten your ballots by now. This thread right here will help explain the ballot #propositions & initiatives. This is again, the most important election of our lives. So vote for Democrats up and down the ballot. #VoteBlue #California

Prop. 39 is the GOP's attempt to convince CA that non-citizens are voting - everywhere, all the time, and in huge numbers - despite their own Heritage Foundation's accounting that it's incredibly rare. Far-right villain-aires have joined in, hoping we'll oppress ourselves. (tinyurl.com/39-is-a-scam)

Republican commentator mad at Democratic politician up by near double digits in a reddish purple state kinda says everything about the dynamics at play here and why no one should ever listen to Brooks

Wendy Westerbeke reposted

Not only should brooks and others shut up. But Ossoff is the best example in the country of a Democrat playing dominance politics and using it to control the whole terms of his race.

“DON’T PANIC,” RIGHT? Fine. Don’t panic. ORGANIZE. 📌 A USPS whistleblower is warning the mail-ballot system could face “catastrophic failure” before the midterms. Make your voting plan now. Vote early, in person, or use a secure drop box. Don’t leave your vote to chance.

Flock cameras have no place in Texas. They can piece together an exact map of your behavior — the places you went and how long you were there. Flock calls this “pattern-of-life” mapping. Texans call it something else: government overreach.

It’s been 6 months since Donald Trump started a war because Benjamin Netanyahu asked him to. This war has raised our gas prices, cost us up to $2B PER DAY, killed American soldiers, and has no end in sight. Shame.

I would advise everyone to follow @NormEisen.bsky.social on what the Roberts Court did today regarding Trump’s attempt to curb mail in voting. Heck, follow Norm on all things legal when it comes to this lawless president.👇

Norm Eisen@normeisen.bsky.social

Please don't overreact to Roberts Court decision on the contemplated USPS ballot moves They simply held that the injunction came too early in the process, before there was a final rule👇 Now we HAVE a final rule & we will litigate it. I'm as confident in our arguments here as in any of our cases!

This should be another aspect of immediate journalistic inquiry: What has happened to other world leaders who have suffered from similar psychiatric issues in their decompensating end stages? How did that turn out for themselves and the people they govern?

Rep. Jeff Van Drew: "Canada isn't working because they are so far left. This should be a warning shot to them. You better come to America, say, 'We're sorry, we're gonna mend our ways and do what we used to do and groom and maintain the forest.'"

ICE has STOLEN an Indigenous Tribal ELDER from NM, who was on her way to CHEMO. She stopped for gas, ICE then approached her, she showed all of her proper, legal documentation. They still stole her away. They're denying her of life saving CHEMO. When will it be enough. #ShedShed #ViVaHerAlliance

We're long past the stage of staying quiet while some pedophile and his Republican pedo pals are holding America hostage. Trump had a primetime speech about election fraud at the same time he's keeping a dead Senator's seat empty. It's time to stop allowing them to shit on us

The air is full of smoke, the food is full of parasites, and the water is full of data center bacteria but at least we stopped all that DEI children's cancer research!

Newsom: All of this happening—this open sewage system. You talk about draining the swamp. He gave it a presidential suite with gold leaf. This is stuff I don’t even imagine exists at this scale in a year and a half, even in Putin’s Russia or Kim Jong-un’s North Korea.

But hopefully adds to the meta-precedent of not respecting precedent, so when we get an expanded SCOTUS it can quickly and derisively reverse Callais, Shelby County, Trump v US, Dobbs, etc.

Obama: A declaration that we are all created equal, endowed by our creator with certain unalienable rights, and that in the newly independent United States there will be no kings or lords, no serfs or subjects, but only citizens,

Michelle Obama: "No one has the right to sit in judgment of who is American enough. And that's why, folks, we simply don't have the luxury or time to be cynical or complacent."

This is the best of us! What a beautiful homage.

Obama: To Michelle. She did me wrong. She wouldn't let me see her speech. She knew she was going to mess me up and she did it anyway. But she's always made me better. And I could not be more grateful.

The Obama Presidential Center is finally opening! Tune in today on Obama.org starting at 11am CT as Michelle and I share what this moment means to us and celebrate with friends, family, and members of the community in Chicago.
