But November 3 is one month away, and even with the ocean in front of me, I cannot pretend that what happens back home is somebody else’s responsibility. In my lifetime, I cannot remember an election that felt more consequential. And I am tired of hearing that assessment

It seems that after Zakharova’s statement that European factories producing weapons for Ukraine are potential military targets for Russia, the question of such a strike should no longer be "will it happen?" but rather "when will it happen?"⤵️

1/ A false claim can be debunked. The fear it created can survive. So can the anger, resentment & distrust. Our information defenses are getting better at tracking what is false. But are we tracking what the lie was designed to make us feel? #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy who

1. Garland had to sue for testimony of 14 critical witnesses w/o which there'd be no case. The court took a year to rule 2. Garland began investigating Trump when he got to DOJ. He did not wait 2 years 3. Twitter delayed the probe 4 months 4. The J6 cmte delayed it by another 2 months 5. SCOTUS

Many people asked in the comments why we ignore air raid alerts and are outside of shelters during Russian attacks. The answer is simple: alerts last for hours many months in a row. We need to work and live. The world continues watching a live broadcast of Ukrainians being killed.

1/ A Texas woman did everything right. She's a U.S. citizen, registered to vote for years. Then a government database flagged her, and her registration vanished without warning. SCOTUS Justice Jackson tried to warn us. The Supreme Court ignored her. #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy

Immediately following the “election,” Putin started applying harsher policies. He no longer hides the fact that he does not care about the Russian people, while Russians are increasingly expressing quiet dissatisfaction - although this still has not turned into protests⤵️

I want to write about what life is like right now for millions of people in #Kyiv, living under constant air-raid sirens, Russian attacks, and threats. The alerts have been going on for more than a month without a break. The danger is constant. There are explosions every day, with no real respite.⤵️

A new defense agreement between the United States, Denmark, and Greenland could significantly strengthen NATO’s position in the western Arctic. It is not only about the addition of two U.S. military sites in Narsarsuaq and Mestersvig - the entire regional security architecture is changing⤵️

The publishing industry views Bluesky as some tiny unimportant island out somewhere in a far-off ocean. It's not worthy of their attention like Amazon Algoland or The Republic Of Instagram Influencer Collaborativepost is. What they don't realise is just how much the island's inhabitants love books.

In a war of attrition, the side that can hold out longer will prevail. Today, that ability also depends on the capacity to learn and organize better. Both the Russian-Chinese and Western models of adaptation have their own bottlenecks.

1. We spend enormous energy chasing individual lies while barely examining who controls their reach. The greater political power may belong to private social platforms that decide what millions see, how often they see it, and what disappears from view. #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy
