Putin has bought Trump with Russian diesel. Just before the US elections. Meanwhile, Russia keeps killing our children while they sleep at night. So Americans are now funding Russia’s war machine? I’m sorry, guys, but WHAT A FUCKING DISGRACE.

Trump: "I have just concluded a highly successful discussion with President Vladimir Putin, of Russia, wherein it was agreed that Russia will immediately supply over 300,000 Tons of Diesel Fuel to the American and Global Marketplace, another 500,000 Tons during the month of November ... "

Don’t get complacent. They’re still going to try to cheat. Check your registration. Vote early if at all possible.

How do you defeat a president who’s trying to sabotage the midterms? 1. Use drop boxes. 2. Vote EARLY in person. 3. If mailing in your ballot, put it in the mail AT LEAST two weeks before Election Day. 4. Vote in person on Election Day. 5. Share these instructions with everyone you know.

that 18 percent seems really well represented in the news and on social media bsky.app/profile/atru...

Enten: "President Trump has the highest strongly disapprove rating going into a midterm election on record. 50% of Americans now say that they strongly disapprove of the job he's doing. The previous record was Trump going into 2018 ... just 18% strongly approve of the job Trump is doing."

I know I've posted this many times - needs to flood the media until election day.

The way to look at this is George bush is trying to help Donald trump retain power on the Hill

This would be great, if the democrats held daily briefing!

Cheri Jacobus@cherijacobus.bsky.social · 3w ago

Too bad Dems won't do daily press briefings from the Capitol on par with White House press briefings. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. About 7,000 reporters have House and Senate press gallery credentials.

Dear Democrats, You don't have to be perfectly fair and nuanced about the cost/benefits of data centers, or AI, or Flock cameras. You can just demagogue the ever-loving shit out of *all* of it. Thank you for your attention to this matter. www.thebulwark.com/p/democrats-...

Democrats Should Demagogue AI. Seriously.

The politics of data centers, Flock cameras, and runaway tech could hardly be clearer.

Since becoming president again, Trump has promised: -$5000 stimulus checks via "DOGE dividend" -$2000 stimulus checks via "tariff dividend" -$1000+ checks via "savings" from expiring ACA subsidies -$5000 "dividend" if Rs win midterms No checks have been issued www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-magi...

Trump: "If the Republicans win the House of Representatives and the United States Senate...I will issue a dividend to every adult citizen in the United States of America for $5,000."

Biden took the short stairs up to Air Force One instead of the long stairs and it was headline news. Trump publicly fantasizes about conquering neighboring countries and their 170+ million people and the news media will hardly mention it.

"The Postal Service isn't supposed to have a dog in the hunt when it comes to who wins (or loses) our elections. . . . "Trump's effort to weaponize the Postal Service to influence the outcome of elections and disenfranchise American voters really says it all." -- @joycewhitevance.bsky.social

I Doubt You’re Surprised

There’s a whistleblower addressing the USPS plan to implement Trump’s EO on mail ballots

Trump begs SCOTUS to let him unleash midterm chaos

They’ll find that fraud if they have to throw out millions of lawful ballots to do it.

Dems need to state very plainly that they are going to go after anyone who stops the mail

Paul Waldman@paulwaldman.bsky.social · last mo.

It really sounds like we're hurtling toward a crisis here. The USPS seems determined to disenfranchise MILLIONS of Americans, and there is no reason to believe the Supreme Court won't let them do it. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/02/u...

This actually is the truth about Susan Collins when it comes to Trump and Vance: She's on team and they all know it - so a reliable Senate vote for Trump is what is on the ballot in Maine this fall: "here's the truth with Susan Collins: when we need here, she's been there"

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last mo.

The Charlie Kirk Show (yes it's still called that) on Susan Collins: "JD was campaigning for her in Maine, so that's interesting ... and here's the truth with Susan Collins: when we need here, she's been there. And also, if we lose her, we're unlikely to ever get that seat back."

I’m so sick of this “we set the table” garbage. The economy was never primed to take off like a rocket. The tariffs had already screwed things up before we went into Iran. The job market was weakening. Inflation was already going up. Trump did this before he ever started his dumb war.

Mike Johnson: We set the table for the U.S. economy to take off like a rocket, and then we got into this conflict with Iran

@hamilton4kansas.bsky.social Hello, I heard you on the Bullwark and really appreciate what you stand for. How can I contribute to your campaign?

Dems need to take this seriously. Susan Collins is making her move right now to distance herself from the horrific ICE shooting in Maine. She's very good at this kind of maneuver. It's why she keeps getting reelected there.

Greg Sargent@gregsargent.bsky.social · 2mo ago

Susan Collins, who voted for $70 billion in no-strings-attached ICE funding, is now taking credit for securing new bodycams to distance herself from Trump and ICE. This is how Collins wins in Maine. Dems must go on offense on ICE to thwart this scam. New from me: newrepublic.com/article/2138...

6 new states, 12 new Senators (DC, PR, Guam, USVI, Samoa, Northern Mariana Islands). A bare minimum reform.

The easiest possible layup for a President at war with another country would be to explain that they are attacking us. Trump won't do that because he views Minnesota as a bigger enemy than Iran.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2mo ago

Trump: "We heard in Minnesota there was a cyberattack and they blame it on Iran. I don't think so. I blame it on Minnesota because they're grossly incompetent. Iran's got bigger problems than worrying about Minnesota."

Truly absurd headline. And most importantly, grossly factually inaccurate. Beyond any reasonable doubt, Trump is a sociopath; he does not grieve, nor is he capable of grief. Even if journalists are too timid to report that truth, they should not report the contrary as truth.

While there are so many glimmers and pockets of goodness ahead, the next few months are going to SUCK. Trump and his team know November will likely be an end of a road for them. They don’t want to lose the keys. But they are our keys, not the kingdom’s.

BREAKING MS NOW: The Trump White House hosted about two dozen election denial activists this week ahead of Trump's address where he's expected to spread election lies. The session was convened by conservative lawyer Cleta Mitchell — who advised Trump's effort to overturn the 2020 result.

BREAKING: The Trump White House just ousted all three sitting members of the U.S. Election Assistance Commission — hamstringing the bipartisan agency ahead of the midterms. The EAC helps state and local officials run elections, including by certifying election equipment.

The ICE murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo deserves the same fury as Renee Good and Alex Pretti

Heather Cox Richardson for Maine Senate. If she is willing to do it.

Every Dem Senator who publicly called for Al Franken to resign needs to call on Graham Platner to drop out of the race. And he should drop out immediately, while the Maine Democratic Party can still designate a replacement.

Dana Houle@danahoule.bsky.social · 3mo ago

These allegations against Platner are much worse & far better documented than the allegations that led to Al Franken being forced to resign from the US Senate.
