Alabama Democratic Gubernatorial candidate Doug Jones doesn’t have to do anything except sit back & watch his opponent Tommy Tuberville look like an idiot after he claims nobody is more qualified than him. Then he can’t even name the three branches of Government correctly.

When Elon Musk was starting SpaceX, he flew to Russia three times. He was immediately taken under the wing of Dana “Putin Pays” Rohrabacher who pushed through legislation to allow privatized space exploration. Elon Musk has been a Russian asset for 25 years.
🤔 Putin on Elon Musk: Elon Musk is an industrial genius. He has more than 5,000 spacecraft in orbit. We are in close contact with our American partners, including Mr. Musk. It is important to maintain discipline and order in orbit. Both we and our American partners value this, and despite political issues, we work closely together in this field. Elon Musk is a genius, a truly brilliant man.

I know Marshall has been trying to convince Kansans that Trump is on the ballot, but even I wasn’t ready for the fake tan and red tie.

This is pretty amazing. I laughed because she gave tax breaks to the rich and told us it was for the middle class. She has been in office for 14 years and now she has a secret plan to lower costs. Ann Wagner is a liar and a coward. She won't debate or hold a town hall because she is afraid of real questions. Instead she edits 13 second clips to make herself look good. 6 days for change. @WellmanForMO
I have a plan to lower costs for Missouri families WITHOUT raising taxes. Fred Wellman laughed at the idea of keeping taxes low and refused to make that same promise. Missouri, no-excuse absentee voting is underway, and Election Day is November 3! Get out and vote Ann Wagner!

Abdul El-Sayed: “We are being actively bullied by the dumbest people in the room. Donald Trump is an idiot. He has one genius which is getting attention. Because his dad never gave him enough, because he was a nepo baby, he craved attention and used the bullying tactics to get it. But the man is an idiot. Just a fool”

That time when segregationists carried a coffin with a Black baby doll. The purpose? They didn't want six-year old Ruby Bridges to integrate an all-white school. This is more than just a photo. It's a receipt. This is your history, America. Own it.

I sat with a Pennsylvania family who buried their son. He got a rare cancer. He wasn't the only one. Other young people in his town got rare cancers too. They grew up surrounded by fracking wells. The gas companies are still drilling next door. Stop fracking in residential communities.

Funny it took this long Worried about losing the Panhandle? Jeez .. when Biden was president , he offered this help to DeSantis PREEMPTIVELY !!! Smells like election desperation
So grateful to @POTUS for answering our call for a Major Emergency Disaster Declaration. While the state is working diligently to restore areas destroyed by Isaias, this approval will help bolster ongoing efforts in Florida’s Panhandle.

I've always considered lil marco to be a wannabe banana republic dictator. "All hat and no cattle."
The devil never returns your soul, Marco. Gonna be glorious to watch him flame out (again) in 2027, before any 2028 voting even begins.

“Go f*ck yourself” says @RepRitchie to young people in his community. This is the disdain reps like @RitchieTorres have for their constituents. We suggest you “f*ck” Ritchie by voting for @AndreEastonBX 🗳️✊
Today in the Bronx, a group of young people confronted Ritchie Torres about his pro-ICE record, and the money he takes from AIPAC and the rest of the pro-Israel lobby. Instead of listening, he cursed them out. Here are the facts. Ritchie Torres has taken over $2 million from the pro-Israel lobby. He voted for the Laken Riley Act, the first law Trump signed this term. It enables ICE to lock up undocumented immigrants who have only been accused of a crime, not convicted, even for something as small as shoplifting. Then he voted for a resolution thanking ICE for “protecting the homeland.” But Ritchie Torres is the symptom, not the disease. For over 20 years, Democrats have voted with Republicans to fund ICE while promising to deliver on “comprehensive immigration reform” that never came. That’s how we got the deportation machine we’re living under today. That same machine came for Alexander Nilaj, a pillar of our community who built the Open Hand food pantry right here in the Bronx. On October 13, ICE kidnapped him and took him to Delaney Hall. Without him, the pantry has stopped giving out food. Ritchie Torres has visited Alexander at Delaney Hall, but he and the Democrats helped build the very same machine that put Alexander there. The Bronx is sick of ICE tearing our neighborhoods apart. The Bronx doesn’t want more meaningless measures like Ritchie’s proposal to put QR codes on ICE agents. The Bronx wants ICE out of our communities for good. The Bronx deserves leaders who will fight for full rights for every immigrant, now — not as a distant promise. The Bronx needs and deserves socialism: a system where working people hold the political and economic power, and where billions go to housing, healthcare, and childcare instead of ICE and endless wars abroad.

Halloween Candy is up 15% from last year. A 100 piece bag of candy is 71% more expensive than it was 5 years ago and most chocolate companies have been moving towards lab grown ingredients. The product is getting worse AND more expensive. Happy Halloween, everyone.
