IT BEGINS: I just received summons today to appear in criminal court in Minneapolis on November 16th. I’m calling on all journalists to appear in solidarity with the 1st amendment.
CAUGHT INSIDE MINNEAPOLIS POLLING BOOTHS: Minnesota Poll Workers Tell O’Keefe, Dressed in Muslim Garb, & @camhigby, in a Burka, That They Can Vouch for Eight Unregistered Voters Without ID, Allowing Them to Vote in Minnesota Primary Election Election worker says, “You’re the ID,” referring to the registered voter serving as identification for the people they are vouching for. Election worker confirms O’Keefe’s question about unregistered voters being vouched for: “I can vouch for them. They are not registered… That’s okay. That’s fine. Yeah!” Election worker explains that a registered voter in the same precinct can vouch for up to eight people: “If you’re all in the same precinct and you are already registered, you can vouch for them as ID. Eight people.” More reports coming soon from the Justice League. @realmuckraker @anthonyjrubin @camhigby @ctznjusticelg

I’m a team player. Not many things will make me go scorched earth. Setting up @PeteHegseth as scapegoat is one of them. And, yes, I know the blackmail. You know who you are.

When democrats take control of the Senate, they will undoubtedly nuke the filibuster. We know this because they have tried several times, but there is no Senator Manchin or Sinema to stop them this time. While Republicans are still in control, we must nuke the filibuster & put as much legislation on President Trump’s desk as we can. It’s our only option.
