Democrat without illusions. It's going to be a long, tough slog.

Oh: I really can’t emphasize enough how useful it is to check — literally right now, do it. Likely, it’s peace of mind in a couple of minutes. At worst, you still have time (barely) to remedy it.

If you're in these 3 states, *TODAY* is deadline to register to vote. Alaska Rhode Island South Carolina Even if you think you've registered: doesn't hurt to check everything is in order. Do it now. And there's a lot to vote for across them. A thread with stakes on each. ⬇️

Dems’ 2028 platform should include stuff like letting soldiers have beards, letting TSA agents sit down, letting generals get their promotions, etc. The deep state isn’t real but civil and uniformed services are. We need them to know which side respects their human dignity before MAGA’s next coup.

Pete is lost in terms of modern war. I use the example of this outgunned Ukrainian army officer who successfully terrorized a Russian unit for weeks because she "did the math." At the time, someone commented, "yeah, in combat, 'I did the math' beats 'I can do 100 pushups' every time."
Ukrainian female soldier: Okay, I said the idea is this: There is enough time to empty one full can of 32 grenades and be gone by the time the return mortar fire reaches us. I did the math.

Judging by a quick look at Twitter, the right has decided just to pretend that Eric Schmitt did not, in fact, just shoot himself in the dick and that he totally owned Jack Smith.

Susan Collins is always horrified by the predictable results of her own vote, which means Mainers who genuinely care about Susan Collins should elect Troy Jackson as he won’t vote for things that wind up upsetting Susan Collins, unlike Susan Collins

Usually when Collins gets upset by media - and that is her standard procedure - media, especially Maine media back down Not ProPublica as you can see below - and they have the receipts to back it up So this has got to be a especially jarring for her and her team

Google AI: Belarusian Lukashenko confirmed that Belarus has no free or available potash to sell to the U.S. because its entire production output is already fully contracted to other markets. This response follows Trump claims about securing a massive, discounted fertilizer deal to bypass Canada.

Survey shows that despite criticism of premier, 86% identify as pro-Israel, though majorities back aid cuts and remain divided over AIPAC’s role in primaries; most US Jews plan to vote Democrat

One of James Telerico or Ken Paxton will be the next senator from Texas. If you're telling people not to support Telerico, you're saying you want Paxton to win. That's it. You cannot select a different, third bespoke person to be senator like buying a tailored suit.

Newsom: It’s pathetic and sad. Pathetic because it’s just buIIsh¡t. And sad that he has to go in front of people and bribe them. That’s how desperate he is to hold on to power… He wants to buy everybody off. He said if you vote for us, I’ll give you $5,000. There’s laws about that. It’s made up.
