There are absolutely exceptional Dems running, and they merit praise, but we do the truth and ourselves a disservice to say "Blue Wave" as it implies voters' actions are motivated by embracing Democrats. It's a "Red Wipeout" or "Republican Repudiation." (H/t Michael Podhorzer.)

Next Saturday will be the largest early vote activation in American history. No Kings Day is how we build historic turnout for the midterms and get our communities ready to organize against Trump’s election sabotage.

Trump is helping Russia who is helping Iran attack and kill Americans. So that means Trump is knowingly taking steps to weaken the US and bolster Russia and its close ally, Iran. Does that make him a traitor? Let's have the debate.... www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_ent...

To put this in perspective, the single 300K ton shipment of diesel mentioned in the article is less than the amount the U.S. exports every two days. There is no shortage of diesel in the U.S. If the spike in diesel prices is due to market forces, these Russian shipments should have zero impact.

The Pentagon says it will livestream the firing squad execution of Nidal Hasan at Fort Hood, the site of his 2009 mass shooting. That would be the first public execution in the U.S. since the 1930s.

There are plenty of boomers, like me, on fixed incomes. There are others who were in the right place at the right time. But blaming us for this economy and hardships on the younger citizens is a red herring, actively promoted by Republicans.

But seriously, it's Nick Shirley who should be prosecuted for attempted SNAP fraud. (Of course, the irony is that it failed because SNAP's security pin worked in thwarting the attempt. No purchase was made.)

When done with this admittedly high level of expertise, it also forces your opponent onto defense. Now Collins must let charge go uncontested or say something like "I am not like Bull Connor." As with Nixon saying "I am not a crook," this merely cements connection.
