Yes, Harris was right. We all told you this would happen. Fuck everyone who said it wouldn't & voted for Trump. Fuck every cowardly Republican who refuses to end it.

Oh boy. They using his real first name now that they know he’s not white. Yikes.

🚨 #BREAKING: “Man of the people” Vivek Ramaswamy took an 11 min flight on his private jet to avoid a 42 min drive yesterday, from Findlay to Toledo, OH. Spent $1,500 in fuel in 11 mins while ignoring Ohioans’ vocal concerns about rising fuel costs.

Troy Jackson: We're losing $3 billion in healthcare. We're losing SNAP benefits. We're losing heating assistance. Susan Collins could have stopped that if she really cared. But she doesn't. She does whatever Donald Trump wants. I can't understand how anyone in their right mind can actually defend that vote.

NEW: ICE flagged Zumiez, a popular skate store found in shopping malls, "for further investigation" in Pennsylvania because it supported voter outreach efforts. The streetwear brand was among hundreds of groups probed by ICE this year as part of Trump's ongoing hunt for noncitizen voters. demdock.com/4hR7CBT

The Bureau of Land Management approved blasting through 100-foot canyon walls at the entrance to the world's longest art gallery. So oil tankers can drive through it. Nine Mile Canyon, Utah holds more than 10,000 cultural, historical and archaeological resources, including over 1,000 known rock art sites containing more than 10,000 individual images. People have used this canyon for at least 8,000 years. The blasting happens in Gate Canyon, the entrance corridor into that gallery. Federal surveys have already found 47 historic sites along this one stretch of road alone. And it's not only the rock art. Threatened Mexican spotted owls use cliff habitat in the canyon, including areas near the proposed blasting. BLM did the minimum environmental review required and barreled ahead anyway, to move oil out of the Uinta Basin faster. Up to 1,000 vehicles a day, roughly half of them heavy tankers. This isn't BLM's first swing at this road. Duchesne County tried the same realignment in 2015 and again in 2022. Both times, public opposition killed it. This time, BLM posted it quietly in March with no public notice, denied conservation groups' request to even weigh in, and approved it in April anyway. It's the same playbook that just got this administration stopped at Big Bend National Park, except "stopped" is doing a lot of work in that sentence. There, a judge halted construction October 2nd, but only after bulldozers had already torn through the park’s grounds. A win in court doesn't un-crush what's already crushed. Three groups sued over Gate Canyon this week. But a lawsuit takes months. A blasting crew takes days. #DemsUnited 🧵

Montclair Township Council pulled all of the town’s money — about $91.1 million — out of Citizens Bank, protesting ICE. Citizens Financial Group has financed the private prison and detention industry since at least 2012, helping GEO Group & CoreCivic. Citizens has now cut ties.

if you think allowing other people to marry the person of their choice curtails your "religious liberty," you're a religious fanatic who does not belong in government.

Collins: “we need to get energy independent, that’s why I support the keystone pipeline” Troy: “I don’t know how getting Canadian oil makes us more energy independent but whatever”

Unsealed logs show Cornell police made phone record requests to Verizon & T-Mobile but withheld the evidence from DA prosecutors.

Democratic nominee for Governor of Georgia, Keisha Lance Bottoms: My opponent is making money off of the broken health care system. He has a staffing company that lures staff away from hospitals. It has sent many hospitals into bankruptcy.

I’ve been reading your emails and comments and listening to the stories you’ve shared about how data centers are affecting your daily lives. I went to Northern Virginia to see for myself, and the noise and proximity to homes and playgrounds are unbelievable. People across the Commonwealth are living with these impacts. They deserve a say, and we need guardrails on data center growth that put communities first. I’m continuing my Data Center Listening Tour in Sussex County at the Jarratt Senior Citizens Center on October 13th. Join us, share your story, and help shape what comes next.

An 18 year veteran attorney at the Interior Department just quit. John Murdock is a conservative Christian who says he witnessed a “deeply troubling assault on the rule of law” inside the trump administration. And holy shit, his resignation letter. After laying out what he’s witnessed, he writes- “Flooding the zone with shit is a strategy for producing a shitty country.” Yet another adult has left the room.

Holy shit. **4** newly uncovered Collin’s bribery schemes uncovered in two weeks. Everyone of them involving a federal contractor where Collins sat on the committee directing the buying. Unbelievable levels of corruption!

So now diesel users don’t pay taxes on fuel while the rest of us do All so Trump can keep his pointless war going

Unearthed clip from 2018: Q: Are you 100% certain that Brett Kavanaugh will not overturn Roe v. Wade? Susan Collins: I do not believe that Brett Kavanaugh will overturn Roe v. Wade. Q: You have full confidence? Collins: I do.

The maximum amount an individual can donate to a candidate is $3500. Elon Musk has spent $380 million on the 2024 and the 2026 midterms — so far. Billionaires shouldn’t be allowed to buy elections. Overturn Citizens United.

270 cars across four German states. Exhaust pipes filled with construction foam. “Be greener” stickers slapped on the windows with Robert Habeck’s face. It looked like radical climate activism. Russia ran the operation. Three defendants confessed in Ulm. Two men, 18 and 22, one woman, 21. They moved to Germany from Bosnia, Serbia, and Romania. Moscow’s handlers paid them 100 euros per car to frame the Green Party and discredit climate policy before the Bundestag election. The court called them “disposable agents. ” Accurate. Now the sentence: • Two men: 3,000 euros each to the state treasury • Woman: 50 hours of community service • All three sentenced under juvenile law A foreign intelligence service coordinated 270 acts of sabotage at that price. No prison. No asset seizure. No investigation into the network that recruited them, moved them, and paid them. The message to Moscow is unambiguous: this is cheap. A few thousand euros in fines, some community service, and the operation still achieved its goal. The Greens were smeared, the public was confused, and the actual perpetrators walk away with a court record and a fine they can pay off with the next job. Russia needs the cost of sabotage to stay low enough that recruitment never stops, making court victories unnecessary. This verdict guarantees the next wave will be bigger. Ten times bigger is a conservative estimate. The German legal system just set the market rate for Russian hybrid warfare on German soil: 100 euros per car for the saboteur, 3,000 euros per saboteur for the state. Moscow will pay that all day.

Another day to remind you Cornell University is also found in the Epstein files Over 700 times. And one the most monstrous doctors from the files is a Cornell grad.

Epstein survivor Dani Bensky: "I can't help but to think that this administration is being run like an Ivy League fraternity. Stay silent. Close ranks. Protect the institution. Avoid accountability."

For context: In just over 7 months of war with Iran, the U.S. has already lost or damaged 81 military aircraft—fighters, tankers, helicopters and drones. It took multiple years of war in Iraq and Afghanistan to reach comparable aircraft losses. Whatever else you think about this war, the rate at which we're losing American airpower is extraordinary.
