Occasional reminder for those with Republican friends who are disillusioned with the current state of affairs but cannot bring themselves to vote for a Democrat: You can still convince them to not vote, vote but leave certain races blank, or vote for a Libertarian if one is on the ballot.

i have a hot take regarding the upcoming american midterms; every year your candidates should get slightly smaller. in 2030 every elected representative should be 2 inches tall and ride a beetle to work. they should sleep under a mushroom and wear doll clothes. they should crave the falling boot,

ICE agents used excessive force to detain Luis Ochoa, an American citizen and teenager, on his way to enlist in the Marines. When his mom spoke out, they DEPORTED her. We cannot get numb to these sick fear tactics. Use your voice & your vote to force a CHANGE!

Remember: Telling lies that everyone knows are lies is a classic tactic of dictators to force their followers to side with them over the truth itself. But the public will not be gaslit. We will continue to spread the truth to our communities. Ignorance is the handmaiden of tyranny.

Folks, this is what we are up against in #NY17. Outside Republican groups - including those controlled by Donald Trump and Elon Musk - have dumped OVER 14 MILLION DOLLARS into our district to help Mike Lawler and defeat Cait Conley. We. Need. Your. Help.
PAC IT UP: Major GOP groups are descending on the Hudson Valley to boost Republican Rep. Mike Lawler.

No Going Back PAC, a super PAC affiliated with the president’s political operation, has reserved a $4 million ad buy in the district, according to the ad tracker AdImpact. A separate group called Safety and Affordability PAC placed close to $3 million in ads. And that’s on top of close to $7 million from the Congressional Leadership Fund.

In addition, America PAC, the group backed by Elon Musk, has so far spent around $50,000 on calls and printing, according to Federal Election Commission records. Another group, America First Agriculture Action Inc., put in more than $300,000 for mail and digital advertising.

There hasn’t been significant outside spending in support of Democratic challenger Cait Conley yet.

"Pamela Brown got it right." www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...
Late on Wednesday night, dozens of sailors strolled down Pattaya's famed Walking Street, along with tourists, journalists and police. Of the roughly 20 sailors approached throughout the evening, most declined to talk, saying they were under strict orders not to speak to the press. The harsh conditions aboard the ship were hardly a secret. Back in July, CNN correspondent Pamela Brown spent three days on board, highlighting the severe isolation, sleep deprivation and mental health strains afflicting the crew.

​Deep suspicion of reporters was on display during a hotel dinner, where two sailors, who didn’t disclose their names, reluctantly spoke about their experiences, offering only vague, one-line answers. Pressed on official assertions that conditions aboard the ship were fine, both shook their heads in disagreement before paying the check and politely excusing themselves.

Moments later, one of the sailors doubled back, holding up his phone to reveal a message typed on the screen: ​“Pamela Brown got it right.”
