‼️ Georgia Republicans are trying to pressure the state’s top election official to pursue an ill-defined voting equipment software update — weeks before the midterms. Now, they’re seeking intervention from the Trump administration. But not all Republicans are on board: demdock.com/47mlnDJ

From Raza Samo: 1.A 7-HOUR S*XUAL ASSAULT. A young Cornell student says she was drugged and sexually assaulted by multiple fraternity members. The alleged assault left her so traumatized that she ultimately dropped out of school. And then came the disciplinary process.

The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly tripled since 2020 — while Amazon’s annual profits soared by over 550%. It’s the same story everywhere: corporate profits are at record highs, while workers’ share of the economy is at a record low. We must unrig the system.

Do you know how much the pay of CEOs at major companies has skyrocketed since 1978? 50%? 100%? 500%? Try 1,316% Meanwhile, the typical workers’ compensation increased only 28%. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Can’t believe our tax dollars are being used for political ads. The White House is now airing a taxpayer-funded ad during commercial breaks on Fox News. The 30-second spot has all the markings of a campaign ad, except the disclaimer at the bottom says: “Paid for by the U.S. Government.”
