Trump tells his cultists in every speech, “we are respected all over the world like never before.” And most of them believe him. It should come as no surprise that the 10 states with the fewest number of people with passports per capita are all red states.

Gift link Anne Applebaum, on Ceuta [So closely did this incident resemble the “invasion” that MAGA and its European friends have long said is under way that it was hard not to suspect that it had been orchestrated.]

Vance, Farage and Weidel posted fear-mongering messages about a Spanish migrant crisis that weren't true. They haven't retracted them. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Ministerpräsident Pedro Sanchez hat darauf hingewiesen, dass #Ceuta nicht zum #Schengen -Raum gehört. Ich hab nachgeguckt. Das Ganze ist ein hysterisches Affentheater rechter Politiker, das nur Faschisten nützt: Die Ausreise aus Ceuta & Mellila geht NICHT ohne Dokumente. UND da ist ein Meer...

Da plärren also führende Politiker, die es besser wissen sollten, das #Spanien aus #Schengen ausgeschlossen werden soll und spielen damit #Putin und #Trump in die Hände, die die #EU zerstören wollen. Brandgefährlicher übelster Populismus, der faktenbefreit mit Rassismus und Fremdenhass spielt

EU: Migranten in Ceuta können nicht einfach nach Europa weiterreisen

Die EU-Kommission stellt klar: Migranten, die irregulär in die spanische Exklave gelangt sind, dürfen nicht auf das europäische Festland weiterreisen. Dennoch gibt es Forderungen, Spanien vorübergehen...

@emmarjanssen.bsky.social You’re the dumb racist pos who said Black voters are stupid and and only do what older Black voters /electeds tell us. Fuck you and your stupid article. Maybe yell at your family, your Starbucks besties, and your Pilate class friends to stop voting for racists

Hey @emmarjanssen.bsky.social Saying Black voters don’t like racist antisemitic DSA candidates because they’re uneducated is not the flex you think it is. Sanders tried the same thing, calling Black voters “low information” because they didn’t buy his 40 year old stump speech.

All eyes on Fetterman now. We already know what their game is. Collins is up for reelection & someone will provide her with a get out of jail free card.

Susan Collins announces she will vote against confirming Todd Blanche to become Attorney General. This comes after Cornyn and Tillis said they will vote to confirm him. Murkowski has not said how she would vote to confirm him. Same for Bill Cassidy.

I have carefully reviewed Todd Blanche’s qualifications to be Attorney General. This includes his record and responses to questions from Senators at the Department of Justice Appropriations hearing, his confirmation hearing, and in the weeks that followed. While I believe Mr. Blanche is a capable lawyer, the Department of Justice has become increasingly political. Mr. Blanche has taken several actions that have further eroded the Department’s independence, and that is the basis for my vote to oppose his confirmation: Mr. Blanche approved an order to shield the President, his sons, and the family business from IRS audits, protections unavailable to other American taxpayers. He approved the creation of a $1.8 billion anti-weaponization fund. He promised an anti-abortion organization that he would seek to prohibit the mailing of abortion medication to women nationwide. Under his leadership, the Department attempted to indict Senators Mark Kelly and Elissa Slotkin over their ill-advised, but constitutionally protected, videos encouraging resistance to unlawful orders. More than 1,200 former Department of Justice employees have opposed his nomination, arguing that he has undermined the institution. For these reasons, I will vote against this nomination.

I'd guess Murkowski will vote no for similar electoral reasons. hard to imagine cassidy growing a spine if tillis and cornyn caved. idk. I was hopeful he might actually be blocked, but can't really see that happening now. though I guess anything is possible.

White women of both parties need to care about this - even if only for selfish reasons because if this is successful, women are next. They're already talking about it. If we lose Black/Brown voters, Dems cannot gain power and women will lose their right to vote, too. And quickly.

The NAACP has released a statement while the Tarrant County Commissioners Court considers a proposal today that would cut the number of Election Day polling locations nearly in half "Let's call this what it is… voter suppression"

Tarrant County, Texas, could see around 50 percent fewer polling locations in November's election. "Let's call this what it is… voter suppression," said NAACP President and CEO Derrick Johnson. "Cutting nearly half the places where people can cast a ballot doesn't save democracy money, it costs voters their voice. Tarrant County is home to a significant number of Black and Latino voters and is a majority people-of-color county. There is no question that this plan strips away polling access on a scale that will hit Black and Brown voters hardest. That is not a coincidence. It’s an intentional assault on our ability to make our voices heard and we will push back with every tool available.”
