How do you defeat a president who’s trying to sabotage the midterms? 1. Use drop boxes. 2. Vote EARLY in person. 3. If mailing in your ballot, put it in the mail AT LEAST two weeks before Election Day. 4. Vote in person on Election Day. 5. Share these instructions with everyone you know.

NEWS: Governor Kathy Huchol of NY appoints the state attorney general Leticia James special prosecutor in the Cornell rape case, effectively removing the local DA. Hochul cites “serious questions” about the Cornell PD’s initial investigation and the DA’s earlier decision not to prosecute.
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 1, 2026
STATEMENT FROM GOVERNOR KATHY HOCHUL ON CORNELL UNIVERSITY SEXUAL ASSAULT CASE
Newly released information continues to raise serious questions about the investigation conducted by the Cornell Police Department and the decision by the Tompkins County District Attorney  not to prosecute an alleged sexual assault on Cornell University's campus in October 2024. This has, in turn, undercut my faith, and the public's faith, in the District Attorney's ability to effectively investigate and prosecute the case at this time.
For this reason, I have issued an executive order appointing Attorney General James as special prosecutor in this case.
As special prosecutor, the Attorney General will investigate this incident and, if warranted, prosecute any offenses arising from that investigation and present evidence to a grand jury. 
The young woman at the center of this case deserves to know that every fact will be examined and justice pursued. This action will ensure that the matter is fully and thoroughly investigated without conflict or bias, and handled independently

A great deal happened today. But nothing more important than this. SCOTUS allows Trump Administration to continue sending detained migrants to third countries with which the migrants have no prior connection. Just appalling.

37 more wounded troops. Added quietly. No explanation. Here's the No B.S. truth: when anyone (a vendor, a CEO, a government) revises the numbers without telling you why, the silence IS the message. 861 wounded. Their families deserve the full story.

Campus rape is really widespread; statistics suggest a significant percent of women who go to college will be raped there; feminism opened up a good conversation about it around 2012-13; it's weird when people treated Cornell like an isolated rather than dramatic example of a pervasive problem.

#ResistanceRoots Today in history, 1971: The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts officially opens its doors and is inaugurated, culminating an initiative that began … in the 1950s? Yes, you read that right. The Kennedy Center got its start during the Eisenhower administration. /1
Rose Kennedy (left) and Senator Edward M. Kennedy (center right) stand in the presidential box alongside family members at the inaugural gala of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, Sept. 8, 1971. The Center’s Opera House was filled to capacity, with 2,200 attendees. The high-profile guest list included three of President Kennedy’s sisters (Eunice Shriver, Patricia Lawford and Jean Smith), alongside a crowd of prominent Washington politicians, international diplomats and cultural elites who paid up to $250 per ticket (roughly $1,900 today) to witness the historic premiere. A separate preview performance had been held three days prior on Sept. 5, where an additional 2,200 members of the general public were invited to see the dress rehearsal of Leonard Bernstein’s MASS so that everyday citizens could experience the venue before the formal gala crowd arrived.
