WATCH: In an epic moment, Senator Warnock slams the billionaires who try to buy our elections: “We need to see billionaires spending a whole lot less on our elections and spending a whole lot more on taxes.”

Trump has invested more money in ICE than the Marines. And unlike the Marine's, masked ICE thugs are NOT trained, and are terrorizing and murdering innocent Americans in broad daylight, like Renee Good, who was shot in the neck in front of her partner. Take a good look at her son. He no longer has a mother. A Big Beautiful #BlueWaveVoteToday will bring investigations into ICE's activities, and justice to her and all of the victims of Trump's terror ring.

You made it to the polls before closing time. Now the line’s moving slowly and the clock has run out. Stay put: you still have the right to vote. If anyone tells you otherwise, call 866-OUR-VOTE for help before you leave the polling place. #BlueWaveVoteToday

While this man drives, the puppy sleeps on his mother, & the mother dog sleeps on this man's leg. If the word "peace" were an image, it would be these three on a journey.

Profoundly heartbreaking to see voters from Texas to Minnesota leave their “I Voted” stickers at memorials for people killed by Trump’s ICE agents. A reminder of what’s at stake this election.

"Trump is an idiot. He was a nepo-baby. He uses bullying tactics to get attention. If you've ever stood up to a bully, you realise they're very fragile" The most concise, spot-on description of Trump 𝒂𝒏𝒅 his goons ever - by Michigan Democrat Senate candidate👇 @AbdulElSayed

This is quite something ! Serbian RTV channel starts yesterday's bulletin by apologizing to viewers👇 "For years, we failed to fulfill our duty. We kept silent, turned a blind eye, reported events one-sidedly and failed to ask necessary questions. We owe our viewers an apology”

BREAKING: In an amazing and rare political moment, Bill Clinton in one fell swoop, just humiliated Donald Trump for turning the White House Rose Garden into what looks like Liberace's bathroom and hammering Congressional Republicans for allowing it. This is amazing.

My favorite thing in the world right now is idiot magats tagging grok to fact-check me and getting proven wrong.
Historians' consensus: Nazis were far-right fascists, not socialists. "Socialist" in the name was propaganda to attract workers. They banned independent unions, arrested and killed socialists/communists, and purged their own left wing (Strassers, Röhm) in the 1934 Night of the Long Knives. Core ideology was racial hierarchy and nationalism, not class equality. Name alone proves little, as with North Korea.

Elon, you absolute fucking moron. The Nazis were far-right fascists who destroyed labor unions, persecuted communists and socialists, and murdered political opponents. Hitler literally purged the party’s left wing. Calling Nazis socialists because of their name is like believing North Korea is democratic because it calls itself the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. Imagine being the richest man alive and still being too fucking stupid to understand history at a middle-school level. Money can buy you a platform, Elon. Apparently, it can’t buy you a functioning brain.
Hitler was a far left socialist. Literally in the name of his party!

He did the same thing early in the war - “During a pivotal push by Ukraine to retake territory from Russia in late September 2022, Elon Musk gave an order that disrupted the counteroffensive and dented Kyiv’s trust in Starlink.” Reuters

If in fact there isn’t more to this story, and @elonmusk pulled the rug from Ukraine (a service that is PAID FOR, not free) this is criminal. We should wait for the full story to assume it’s true but given all that’s been happening, it’s plausible and likely
