"But they don’t have the facts or the law on their side."
@amandacarpenter covers what voters need to know about the administration's attempts to create an illusion of widespread voter fraud.

This would be shocking if efforts to delegitimize results the admin doesn't like hadn't been a slow, ongoing factor since 2020. But now it has the backing of the full executive branch!
textbook tactic that they have been telegraphing for months. all the more reason to push hard between now and election day protectdemocracy.org/work/ex…

NEWS: You may have missed it but recently DHS started using HSI (the same arm that raided Ilhan Omar's home) to conduct voter raids on suspected noncitizen voters.
They were using their BS lists based on proven bad data to target people. They were using helicopters and armed agents to swarm peoples homes in pre-dawn raids. Dragging people out in their pajamas for a DHS camera crew and the NY Post.
So, not ICE at the polls like ppl have feared. DHS at your door.
But we were ready to fight and WON a court case to stop the voter raids last night. nytimes.com/2026/10/21/us/po…

A federal judge has issued a preliminary injunction barring DHS from conducting door knocks/field reviews at the homes/businesses of potential noncitizens who are on “target lists” for possible voter fraud.
This follows active HSI operations in California, Connecticut, Georgia, Missouri, Nevada, New York, Pennsylvania, Washington,
and Wisconsin.

As of the last few hours, we've reached over 10 million votes cast in the midterms! If you haven't had the chance to do so yet, make a plan to vote and help others who may need it election.lab.ufl.edu/early-v…

The DHS raid on U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar’s home is a clear case of political retaliation and an obvious attempt to intimidate the opposition. Here’s how we know: protectdemocracy.org/work/re…
ALT The image is a political alert titled "Retaliation Alert" featuring information about Ilhan Omar, U.S. Representative. It states that on October 12, 2026, HSI agents executed a court-approved search at Omar's Washington-area home. The text suggests Trump and senior officials had targeted Omar before the search, implying political interference. DOJ claims the search is part of a criminal investigation, noting the timing differs from usual DOJ practice. A banner at the bottom reads, "See the latest: Retaliation Tracker.

Start your Saturday off right by watching @cspanwj! I'll be hosting tomorrow from 7-10am ET.
Tune in and call in 🤓
One of my favorite work pastimes is checking with @cerin to see if something is a crime.
Trump TV? For sure a crime. And blatant propaganda!

Exclusive: In late 2024, FBI agents were looking at Sen. Susan Collins’ role in a massive illegal bribery scheme alleged by a former federal contractor. Then Trump gutted the FBI and DOJ, leaving no one to carry on the investigation – it’s dead. 🧵

The top question people have for election experts is: What's the best way to vote in the midterms?
It's a valid Q given Trump's attempts to interfere, but those plans have failed! So, let's GO!
Rules vary by state, but two words of advice apply to everyone: BE EARLY!
let's get ready to be autumnaaaaaaaaaal
🚨 We’re calling it: Summer is over in DC.
After 50 days of 90+ heat and one of our 10 hottest summers on record, the pattern has finally flipped.
70s today. 60s Tuesday and Wednesday. And no sustained heat in sight.
Welcome, fall. 🍂

Others have already better said how kind and honest Brendan was than I ever could, but I do want to share one memory: the first time I got to hang out with him, it was right after he witnessed an execution.

Trump is raging against the Supreme Court on Truth Social over the mail-in voting decision.
HIS ELECTION TAKEOVER PLANS ARE FAILING!
Hooray!
Other election threats are still out there, but the obstacles he's tried to throw up between voters and the ballot box aren't working.
From me.
