People are discussing how Halloween candy is so terrible these days. A reminder that alot of the candy we eat is made with women’s prison labor. Russell Stover’s factory in Kansas busses in 150 women a day via a convict leasing program to staff their candy factory.
Ah, more of the "it's already done, so what are you going to do about it now" defense. Here's a thought: Make him pay out of pocket to replace them.
HAPPENING NOW: Judge Reyes is furious. She has repeatedly told the government to inform her before any major demolition work was done on the golf course. The abrupt removal of 500 trees, without notice, "has cost the government all of its credibility" in this case.
Q: "Did you personally authorize or approve the execution, the live stream execution?" Trump: "Absolutely I did."
🚨BREAKING: Trump was hit with a second lawsuit over taxpayer-funded propaganda ads promoting him ahead of the midterms. The new case says DHS diverted $20 million meant for border-security commemorations to pay for the spots.

🚨BREAKING: GOP lawyer Cleta Mitchell and convicted election denier Tina Peters are pushing a scheme to have Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick seize voting machines, as part of a broader effort for the Trump administration to interfere with the midterm vote. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Election deniers Cleta Mitchell and Tina Peters want Trump’s commerce secretary to seize voting machines
The problem? No federal official can seize control of election administration from the states and counties, who hold the power run elections under the U.S. Constitution.

He should phone a friend. I hear Amy Klobuchar is available.
Let me make this crystal clear. Jane Doe should NEVER be publicly identified. We don't want her name. We don't need her name. We want the names of the 57 "men" who were complicit. Post Anything Here: InteractInk.com

NEW: A new White House rule would prohibit anyone from using federal grant money for voter registration drives, including ones that help disabled Americans vote. It’s part of the Trump administration’s broader effort to restrict voting access.

OK, so the evil Heritage Foundation not only sold Donald Trump on *wildly* unpopular policies with its Project 2025, it is now gaslighting Donald into thinking he should be front and center in the midterms because Republicans are going to do so well? I'm not interfering with this nonsense.
Warren: "This has been their argument every time -- they cut taxes and say, 'Ultimately it's really going to pay off for you.' What's happened every time? The academics study it very carefully and say, 'What really happened is the richest people got richer and everybody else got left behind.'"

Can we all write an essay to Cornell letting them know how f**king disgusting they are?! Protesters against Palestine horror are expelled whilst vile rapists are protected!
This man is a monster. He seeks out women survivors because he hates them. And he hates them because he hates himself. He has harassed me and other women survivors many times over the years. It must end. He should never have a job anywhere.

Any time any anchor ever asks a Democrat about Hasan Piker, the correct response is “Piker isn’t running for anything. Republicans have a literal candidate supported by Mike Johnson who refers to kids as cum trophies. You’re asking the wrong questions.”
HOLY SHIT - Tapper plays Johnson footage of GOP candidate Brandon Herrera describing moms as "cum trophies," mentions he called Nazi machine guns "the original ghetto blasters," & asks Johnson how he can support him. Mike says "he has run a very effective campaign ... that was his persona online"
