A father screams in grief beside the body of his daughter.
This is Chernihiv, where russia killed two 15-year-old girls today.
So less than a week before Election Day and we finally hear Xavier Becerra's agenda: not reform and accountability but more massive tax increases! Unsurprising.
NEW: Xavier Becerra tells me he's preparing a new tax on California's wealthy. He'll also seriously consider new fees for drivers and corporations and will likely remove the CEO of the embattled High-Speed Rail if elected governor of California.

russian terrorists attacked with an FPV drone an animal shelter in Kramatorsk, causing a fire on the second floor of the building where many cats were located. After the firefighters arrived to put out the fire and help evacuate and collect the animals, a russian drone was waiting in the sky… after which it crashed into the fire truck as well.
Throughout the full-scale war, this shelter served as a refuge for stray animals and people with pets. The animals that were inside during the strike were carried outside, but some of them ran off into the surrounding area and got lost due to the explosion and shock.

Rettungskräfte in Kyjiw konnten den Hund nur noch beruhigen, der bei einem russischen Angriff auf den Dnipro-Bezirk verletzt wurde. Er starb an seinen Verletzungen.
Der Hund lebte in der Nähe eines Auchan-Marktes. Dass die Retter nach einem Einschlag auch für ein Tier alles versuchen, zeigt, wie viel Menschlichkeit eine Stadt aufbringt, die jede Nacht um ihre Bewohner fürchten muss.
Is GOP Sen. Lisa Murkowski preparing to switch parties? Or at least become an Independent after endorsing Dem candidate for Governor of Alaska? Shockingly, AK could be on verge of no Reeps in Senate or Governorship. Huge also on '28 presidential impact.

The average Californian has no idea how important it is on multiple levels whether Ben Allen or Jane Kim is elected state Insurance Commissioner.
NEW POLL
We sometimes release polls for public interest. Our latest poll is for the CA Insurance Commissioner race.
@BenAllenCA now leads. There are still a lot of undecided voters.
As a political consultant I have to admit this is a brilliant baller move. DEM senate candidate works the lines outside a TRUMP rally. More politicians of both parties need to do things like this. Genius!
Walking the line outside the Trump rally in Corinth, I was reminded that more unites us than divides us here in Mississippi. I heard from folks who want to get foreign money out of our elections, put an end to flock cameras, keep our border secure, and make sure our veterans are taken care of.
Thank you to everyone who took the time to talk with me and share what matters most to them. When I’m elected to the U.S. Senate, I’ll represent every Mississippian — whether you voted for me or not. That’s what the job is all about. #MississippiMatters

This may be the absolute worst idea I’ve heard in the second Trump term. The U.S. teaming up with China and Russia to install their puppet as SecGen?
New: Sources from three countries confirm that the Trump Administration has advocated Viktor Orbán for UN Secretary-General.
The US has encouraged Orbán to enter the race, even bringing him the initial idea of a joint U.S.-Russia-China candidacy.

When you hear all these anti-Ukraine voices on X that sound so loud and claim to speak for lots of Americans they actually speak for 3% overall and 5% of MAGA. To put that in perspective 12% think the moon landing was faked and 13% believe in Big Foot. So they’re even more fringe. Ignore them.

"[T]hey are the focus of evil in the modern world." - Ronald Reagan (calling out the Soviet Union during his "Evil Empire" speech)
"You are a humanitarian..." - Steve Witkoff (to Vladimir Putin)
"Woe to those who call evil good and good evil..." - Isaiah 5:20

Now that Witkoff has called Putin a "humanitarian," I think the Ukrainians should name something after him.
Recall that the term Molotov cocktail was coined by the Finns, because the Soviet Foreign Minister insisted that incendiary bombs were "airborne humanitarian food deliveries." So the Finns called their improvised incendiary bombs, "Molotov cocktails."
I don't want to get too dark, but calling children's burial shrouds, "Witkoff sheets," or prosthetic legs and arms "Witkoff limbs," or mass graves "Witkoff developments," would be poetic justice.
Witkoff already has more money than he'll ever need. But making his grubby immoral sycophancy to a mass murderer an indelible part of history would have value.

Every restaurant owner understands this. When a restaurant changes its menu and the new dishes flop, the owner does not stand in the kitchen insisting the customers are wrong, forcing them to eat. He looks at the empty tables, he looks at the plates coming back half-eaten, and he looks at the receipts. He pays attention because the alternative is going out of business. The dishes nobody ordered come off the menu, the cook gets a talking-to, and the owner works hard to win back the customers he lost. The restaurants that refuse to do that close, and nobody mourns them.
The parties are no different. They keep putting shit sandwiches on the menu because we keep eating them. But if enough of us push the plate back and refuse to eat, the people in the kitchen will notice, because their jobs depend on it. They will change what they serve only when they realize the customers will walk out if they don’t.
The only way to stop being force-fed shit sandwiches is to refuse to eat them and demand better. If every election requires us to swallow something rotten, we might as well starve.

The pro-Vivek Ramaswamy campaign ad featuring his opponent’s estranged mother calling her daughter a liar is despicable.
It’s likely to backfire, and it should. It's amoral and should be a political disaster. | @kathrynlopez
