I want to give a huge shout out to Ms. Pike for her absolute stellar performance on The Wheel of Time and for her fabulous voice acting for the WOT the audiobook -I have plowed through these books because of your voice! 🤩 @rosamundpike.bsky.social #WOT #savewot Piccredit: Maximillian Audio

This is a screenshot from the audiobook player car display. The display shows Chapter 11: ‘Glimmers of the Pattern’ from the book The Great Hunt paused. Next to this is the cover of this book showing a man and a woman in front of a tower from the show The Wheel of Time. You can also see the icons for maps, Audiable and phone call on the left.

A white woman with blonde shoulder length hair wearing a white blouse with elbow long sleeves and black headphones is seen mid sentence in front of a microphone and paper holder stand. She has her hands in the air gesturing and has gold rings on her fingers.

The four house democrats who voted for the SAVE Act: Jared Golden (Maine), Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (Wash.), Henry Cuellar (Texas) and Ed Case (Hawaii). I wonder if Glusenkamp Perez knows this bill would probably strip her right to vote since “Glusenkamp” isn’t on her birth certificate.

Narrator: History would prove he had that right.

The image is a screenshot of a post on X by a user named Jeff Tiedrich, with the handle @itsJeffTiedrich
. The post reads: "do I have this right? Donald Trump is just going to crash the world economy every three months — and then pretend to save it, over and over, while his cronies rake in untold billions on his shameless market manipulation, is that it? fucking hell." The post expresses frustration and skepticism about Donald Trump's economic strategies, suggesting a cycle of intentionally causing economic crises and then taking credit for resolving them, while associates profit from market manipulation.

Wikler: Musk deleted that tweet because he knows that that tweet was a crime, and it's still a crime in Wisconsin law. It is plain as day. You cannot promise something of value in order to induce someone to vote or refrain from voting. This is Wisconsin statute, and it's a felony to cross that line.
