Early voting is already underway in some states. From now until Nov 3, 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.

This morning all three of our neighbours dogs got out. They're lovely dogs and frankly kept in poor but not actively dangerous conditions. I almost didn't want them to get caught

Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

He's now resorting to trying to buy the election. Federal law makes it unlawful to knowingly and willfully pay, offer to pay, or accept payment for registering to vote or for voting. (52 U.S.C. §10307(c).) Any type of incentive is considered “payment.”

MSNOW aired the part of the Talarico interview that Fox isn’t showing: REPORTER: …you said ‘there are 6 biological sexes.’ Do you still believe that? TALARICO: I think the reason that politicians… across the street want to talk about 6 sexes is because they don’t want to talk about $6 diesel.

I’d feel extremely safe on this flight because I already know they had to work twice as hard, be twice as good and make half as many mistakes just to get into those seats. Black women make up less than 1% of professional pilots. Yeah, I’d sleep good on this flight. ✈️

The White House tried to turn Spider-Man into an ICE mascot. There’s just one problem: a classic Marvel comic shows Spider-Man protecting undocumented migrants, condemning anti-immigrant rhetoric, and protesting a deportation arrest.

🚨NEW: Todd Blanche’s new order rescinds the May 18 Anti-Weaponization Fund—but quietly leaves the May 19 IRS immunity settlement intact. Instead of rescinding it, the accompanying memo reaffirms DOJ’s interpretation, arguing the immunity applies only retroactively and only to the parties involved.1/

A senator is refusing to confirm the president’s personal attorney as attorney general unless the nominee rescinds a slush fund for pardoned insurrectionists in writing. That’s an INSANE SENTENCE. Oh, and I guess the tax immunity provision is totes cool.
