$90. Seriously? Weeks before the midterms, Trump is sending a one-time $90 payment to millions of Medicare recipients. That won’t fix soaring healthcare costs. Seniors need affordable healthcare…not a pre-election cheque. Demand better! #USDemocracy #VoteBlue 🔵

The Medicare Part B premium is $2,435 this year, plus deductibles, coinsurance, and potential supplemental premiums. President Trump says he’s going to send $90 checks to Medicare beneficiaries.

When he offers/bribes something of value (no matter how modest) weeks before an election—that he didn’t care or dare to provide during the two years since the last election—he’s telling his followers right to their face that he thinks they’re dumb af. That’s all.

One month ahead of the high-stakes midterm elections, President Donald Trump on Saturday once again offered cash incentives to Americans to vote for Republicans in November. Read more from Clarissa-Jan Lim.

#Wisconsin voters need to pay attention to their #sheriff races. Local sheriffs can choose how deeply their departments cooperate with #ICE—and 20 Wisconsin counties already participate in ICE’s 287(g) program. That is a LOT of power sitting way down the #ballot. #ICEOut #VoteBlue #FuckICE

Maria Ressa was awarded the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize (with Dmitry Muratov) for "their efforts to safeguard freedom of expression, which is a precondition for #democracy and lasting peace." She is the first Nobel laureate from the Philippines. Happy birthday @mariaressa.bsky.social 🥳
A color photograph of Maria Ressa, born October 2, 1963, the pioneering Filipino journalist, co-founder of Rappler, and co-recipient of the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize. She is standing at a dark wooden podium, captured from the chest up. Smiling broadly with an expression of joy and animation, she looks slightly to the right of the frame. She wears thin, rimless eyeglasses, a black turtleneck, and a textured, patterned blazer in shades of cream and light pink or soft orange. Her right hand is raised forward with her palm open and fingers extended in a welcoming, expressive gesture, while her left hand grips the flexible neck of a black microphone attached to the podium. The warm, soft-focus background suggests a grand indoor lecture hall or auditorium with architectural details. The bright, direct lighting emphasizes her optimistic and commanding presence, reflecting her historical significance as a fearless champion of freedom of expression and democratic resilience.
