Trump: "It's interesting -- China makes the windmills, but try finding a wind farm in China. There is no such." (China has the largest wind power capacity in the world!)

I’m also concerned for the military personnel who have to carry this execution out. Is this really what they signed up for?

VICTORY! A Georgia judge Wednesday dismissed a Republican lawsuit seeking to restrict where Gwinnett County voters can return mail ballots, ruling the law allows the county to accept ballots at designated early voting sites. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The NY Times says it’s “not clear“ why Trump is using taxpayer funds and not money from his super PAC for his self-glorifying ads. But it’s clear to me. It’s because HE‘S A CROOK.
It was not clear why taxpayer funds, and not money from the super PAC, were used for the spots.

My dad was a small-town doctor who made late-night house calls on most nights I can remember growing up—and to my personal knowledge forgave (or delayed) payments from people who were on hard times. This story makes me want to move to Kansas and spend next 5+ weeks canvassing.

Win or lose, James Talarico's campaign is a major threat to the GOP, especially in the long term. Many evangelicals don't even know "liberal Christian" is a possibility. He is showing that it is. And the Christian right is *freaking out*. www.salon.com/2026/09/21/j...

Trump & Vought are politicizing critical medical research and make no mistake: in the long run, this will cost lives. Their continued attacks will put future cures and treatments at risk in service of their own political agenda.   Shameful.

With 50 days until the midterms, I urge you all to: 1) Help get out the vote. 2) Protect our electoral machinery from interference. 3) Not succumb to complacency, defeatism, or cynicism. We are the only ones who can end this nightmare. We are the leaders we’ve been waiting for.

Important: the USPS rule that SCOTUS blocked tonight was Trump’s big plan to control and restrict mail voting. But a separate policy remains in place: USPS is no longer postmarking mail as soon it gets it, which is hugely important for deadlines. So people must mail back with plenty of time.

In an Intense Election Year, New Post Office Rules Could Trip Up Voter Registration - Bolts
A change in how mail is postmarked could lead some voters to miss key deadlines, including voter registration. Advocates worry the people most affected will be those already facing voting barriers.

Before you say Donald is "asleep at the wheel," remember that Trump is too bored and incompetent to ever have his hands on the wheel—they are usually on the cash register.
