WHAT IS KEN PAXTON AFRAID OF? James Talarico called Ken Paxton to invite him to a Fox News debate. Paxton didnโt pick up. Talarico has accepted four local-TV debates; Paxton has committed to none. Texans deserve more than a Senate candidate who ghosts the debate stage #momsky#sheshed
A dementia addled doddering failure announces to the world that his "big brain" with its "highest IQ" has discovered super secret double hidden tarriffs that no one knew about until he found them that Canada has been charging US for years. Vote in Nov. This must stop www.mediaite.com/politics/tru...
Newsweek: A federal judge has blocked the DOJ from obtaining Georgiaโs unredacted statewide voter registration list, handing Trumpโs voter roll campaign its 26th consecutive legal loss. Thank you, from a Georgia voter! ๐ #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed
For the past year, Norma had parked her camper van outside Delaney Hall. Converted into a mobile clinic and offered health checks. She encountered a wall of two dozen ICE agents in paramilitary vests. She felt her body fling through the air. Now she seeks justice. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...
As a longtime Chicago journalist I want to say that if you fail to put Hastert's serial CHILD SEX ABUSE in the headlines about his death, you are doing it wrong. So far, this is the only headline I've seen that has been crystal clear about what the Illinois pol did to kids. Credit @reuters.com.
Irish Star: The DOJ is thinking of reopening the files pertaining to the Watergate scandal to review whether or not Richard Nixon might have gotten a raw deal. I'm old enough to remember when Republicans were willing to impeach a president for his crimes. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed
Rolling Stone: Trump lost it on a Time reporter this week: "You haven't asked me one fucking positive question. What about this? What about that? What about that? What about this? All negative." If Trump wants better coverage, he should try being a better person. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed

MUST WATCH: An Iowa mom at risk of cancer showed up looking for Ashley Hinson. Hinson hid instead of facing her. Then she keeps taking campaign money from Bayer and Corteva while voting to weaken clean-water oversight. Iowa families deserve better than cowardice. #momsky#sheshed
Aaron's relentless work has made all of us so much more aware of just how bat sh*t crazy Donald Trump is. When too many headlines, news stories & pundit panels fail to accurately report on Trump (& his admin & GOP lawmakers), Aaron's clips provide an essential reality check.
Int'l observers saw no fraud. Contested states recounted & found no fraud. CISA found no evidence of fraud. Barr's DOJ found no evidence of fraud. Multiple judges ruled there was no fraud. It's been investigated. It's time to accept that Trump lost in 2020. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed
Trump & Hegseth not only left our troops stationed in Gulf region exposed to Iranian attacks in response to Trump's illegal war. Those troops did not recieve needed immediate medical care, diagnosis or adequate if any treatment. Hegseth still denies their injuries www.huffpost.com/entry/iran-u...
This is how the gangster Presidency works. Donald says he feels โbadlyโ for the accused Cornell rapists, and then the threats begin against women his cult thinks might be the accuser! A vote for ANY Republican is a vote in support of this gangster sh!t! We need to end this, people!
1/ Mamdani. Piker. El-Sayed. Each faced a coordinated pile-on from MSM legacy outlets, right-wing media, & corporate & centrist Democrats. Each came out standing. The reason (IMO): a defense social network that didn't exist at this scale a few years ago ๐งต #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy
Rebecca Cook ran a small business in Eau Claire for nearly 8 years and served on Downtown Eau Claire's board for several of those. Sheโs looking forward to sharing her vision to create economic opportunity in the Chippewa Valley alongside Derrick Van Orden in just a few weeks!
Clean water, safe food, and families free from cages are not radical demands. Cruelty is not policy and this will never be normal. Stand firm, vote blue down the ballot, and refuse to back down. Thatโs how we get our values back. #BlueWaveNov3 #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Michigan families are paying for Trumpโs war every time they buy groceries or fill the tank. Gas rose more than a dollar a gallon after the U.S. action in Iran. We could have chosen peace. Instead, Trump chose a war and handed working people the bill. #momsky#sheshed
Who the hell is running the FBI Kash Patel or Stephen Miller? FBI officials say Patel takes frequent calls from the White House and has acknowledged directions from Trump and Miller. The FBI is supposed to serve the Constitution not the political demands of the White House. #USDemocracy
๐ฅNOW'S the LAST BEST TIME to DONATE to candidates in these midterms. It's overwhelming to decide who to help, but I've assembled this list using the Cook Report of SENATE seats that have a decent chance of FLIPPING from ๐ด to ๐ต. Cut out the PACs. Donate directly to the races you choose. ๐คChip in ๐งต๐๐ผ
#ResistanceRoots Today in history, 1945: A strike by some 10,500 craft workers in the Conference of Studio Unions turns bloody when strikers battle police, studio guards and replacement workers. The conflict directly contributed to the passage of the Taft-Hartley Act and the Hollywood Blacklist. /1

Good morning! โ๏ธ Thereโs comfort in the familiar: a favorite mug, an old song, something that brings back a happy memory. Sometimes those little things help us feel steady when the world feels anything but. Wishing you a few simple comforts today. #JayeโsMorningLight
You seriously canโt make this up. Trump tried to use Brazilโs election to claim American elections are โCORRUPT.โ One problem: He thought Brazil was INDIA. Maybe get the COUNTRY right before lecturing America about elections. #USDemocracy timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/presid...
Kansas. Yes, Kansas. Trump is underwater. The Senate race is essentially tied. If Republicans are fighting for their lives in Kansas, something BIG is happening. Donโt just watch the wave. VOTE and make it happen. ๐๐ #USDemocracy #VoteBlue ๐ต newrepublic.com/post/216199/... via @newrepublic.com
FINALLY! Democrats are saying it clearly: Win the Senate and BLOCK Trumpโs Supreme Court nominees. Republicans played hardball with the courts for years. Democrats donโt owe MAGA another lifetime appointment. Want to protect the Supreme Court? VOTE BLUE. TAKE THE SENATE. ๐ต #USDemocracy
โAccording to documents obtained by ABC News, Ameaka had a work authorization permit until 2029 and a pending asylum case.โ DHS / ICE arrests are driven by profit-motive. $200 billion of taxpayer money pays for the ICE machine. VOTE abcnews.com/US/johns-hop...
The SPLC offers our deepest condolences to Nolan Wells' family, who are still asking how their son died. We also extend our sympathies to other families whose loved ones were found hanging under circumstances that have left unanswered questions and profound grief.
Wow. Readers may recall that Satan @thedevil.bsky.social recently said he was involved in some renovations, because he had limited space. I hope he was finished and ready to receive today's two notable arrivals! #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Moderator: Do you feel like Trump is a drag? Paxton: To be honest, the numbers, when we did the convention, it dropped our numbers. Everybodyโs numbers dropped. Right now? Yeah. Itโs not good. I wish there was something we could do to turn that around, but obviously nothing. #momsky#sheshed

Iโve never been to Israel (yet) and I donโt know anyone there, but 10/7 still affected me in ways that are hard to explain. If you have Jewish friends, please check in on them this week. Showing that you care will really go a long way.

In โ24, out of approximately 245M Americans who were ELIGIBLE to vote, 174M voted. Trump created an affordability crisis, war, dared Iran to bomb 2 American cities, & attacked our rights to free speech, press, privacy, & due process. Donโt sit this one out! Vote for a better life, & vote early.

Anwar Sadat decided that peace with Israel was better than war and paid the price with his life. In the Camp David treaty of 1979, Israel returned the Sinai Peninsula to Egypt in exchange for peace. Israel also offered to return Gaza, but Egypt declined.
