For those pushing Dems to start making a stink about Elon's fundraising @joshturek4iowa.bsky.social is now doing that.
Josh Turek vs. Elon Musk.
Working-Class Underdog vs. World’s Richest Man. 🥊💥🥊

Who’s your money on?

For context: Elon Musk is unleashing a firehose of cash to boost vulnerable Republicans in the battle for the Senate majority, including my MAGA opponent here in Iowa.

Why’s he so focused on this race in particular, you ask?

Well, I’m what MAGA billionaires like Musk fear most:

A candidate who’s not a millionaire and isn’t trying to become one.
A leader with a well-calibrated moral compass and strength of character.
A senator who can’t be bought.
Basically, an honest and up-sitting public servant.

Statement by President of Russia Vladimir Putin
October 9, 202622:50
During the October 9 telephone conversation with US President Donald Trump, considerable focus was on prospects for settling the Ukraine crisis, while the situation surrounding Iran and various aspects of bilateral relations were touched upon as well.

When discussing the state of affairs in the global energy market, the Russian side confirmed its willingness to supply oil and petroleum products to the US market and global markets at large. I am convinced this will have a positive impact on the entire global economy.

An agreement was reaffirmed to maintain personal contacts between the presidents of the two countries and to continue cooperation across their respective administrations, security services, and agencies.

I agree that this is a BFD. But I think it gives Trump too much agency. This was baked in for quite some time and I expect Lindsey Graham's death is what accelerated it. Putin is no doubt offering Trump a way out of his Iran disaster, which ALWAYS required scapegoating Ukraine.

Do Trump aides take three days to debate whether he means to destroy blue cities or prevent Iran from doing so, too? I mean, he literally did set out to destroy Los Angeles. He used paramilitaries, not nukes. But he did set out to destroy it.

Cyril Domaquik Clemens, a Liberian native, was convicted of three counts of indecent liberties with a child after confessing to sexually molesting a young child.
 
The abuse began before he naturalized, but he concealed it during the citizenship process, fraudulently obtaining U.S. citizenship.

Finished off the day at #Portsmouth dockyard with some time in nearby Gunwharf for some shopping, a drink in the Old Customs House, then a wander past some of the street art before catching the bus home. #Photography #Gunwharf #SpinnakerTower #StreetArt
Collage of four photos. Top left there's an almost tropical-looking fancy retail outlet with palm trees, old brick buildings, and a stretch of water reflecting it all. People can be seen on chairs near bars. The other three photos are of street art painted into the bricked-in arches of a walled section, part of the historic maritime quarter of the city. One piece is a blue-skinned woman with orange hair and a smirk on her face. One piece is a colourful pink and brown artwork with some flowers and a bearded man speaking in a happy emoji. The last piece looks like Alphabetti Spaghetti in tomato sauce. The words "Choo Choo" can be made out amongst the contents.
