.@SenBrianSchatz says that if Democrats take the Senate, the party's left wing needs to be strategic about not proposing things "that the president of the United States is guaranteed to veto."
"If we want to be more aspirational, if we want to make more bold policy changes... that's for 2028."

The pedophile protection party’s president is laundering right-wing conspiracy theories through the most corrupt DOJ in American history.
Whenever the news turns bad, this creep reaches for one name: mine. So let’s make it crystal clear. My name has always been Ilhan Omar.
Maybe you should focus on what your VP’s real name is.
We really, really need to pass prop 40.
BREAKING: Mark Zuckerberg of $META has said he is considering leaving California if it passes a measure that would impose a one-time 5% tax on billionaires, per Bloomberg
Wait… SERIOUSLY??
Mike Rogers falsely attacked Abdul El-Sayed on terrorism, breast cancer research, and gas-powered cars. Ahead of tonight’s debate, a Metro Times analysis examines those lies and the voting record his campaign pitch leaves out. metrotimes.com/news/mike-rog…

i am so sorry if mallory mcmorrow feels personally upset by that fake wedgewood pool, and i sympathize with her frustrations in this modern era of toxic american politics. but her primary campaign was defined by a series of unforced errors. who made her call abdul a fake doctor?
There’s just something disturbing about Amy Acton’s mom saying “my daughter’s been a liar her whole life” when they haven’t spoken since Acton was 12.
Even more disturbing when you find out they stopped talking because her mom defended her rapist in court.

Ya Trump just blasted an antisemitic slur & ok Vivek just did an attack ad with his opponent's estranged mom who stayed with a man who molested her when she was 9 & maybe Vance just threatened to deport a guy calling to release Epstein Files, but has El Sayed condemned Terrorism?
This is an issue that’s been brought up regularly since 2004. Democrats always want to ignore it. They’re afraid of offending people by sticking up for themselves. But considering how the Republicans have been trying to break democracy, Dems need to start taking this seriously.
Dear @AnnieAndrewsMD: I just voted for you, but when I went to check the ballot, your name had been switched with the libertarian candidate. I don’t think it was user error, but I can’t prove it. I was able to go back and change it after that. But keep an ear out, because if other people are having a similar experience, it’s not an accident.
This may just be the most genuinely insane political mailer I’ve ever seen, and there’s some stiff competition. Top 3 contributors:

This is a scathing indictment of where we are as a society. Whether they’re conscious of it or not, legacy media is complicit in fascism.
Unlike the raid on John Bolton, the targeting of Omar has elicited zero condemnation from NYT, WSJ, and Washington Post. theintercept.com/2026/10/15/…
What would it take for the media and Democratic leadership to finally start acting like democracy is under threat? Because you’d think this whole Ilhan Omar thing would be it.
Anyone else notice how influencers and politicians who support Israel have been trying to drive a wedge between the Black community and the pro Palestinian movement? That’s an historically strong alliance they know they need to suppress.
In 2014 when Black youth in Ferguson were being brutalized by police and the National Guard during protests over Mike Brown's killing, it was Palestinian youth in Gaza and the West Bank who used social media to advise Ferguson protesters on how to deal with being tear-gassed.
Because Palestinians were experienced in dealing with being tear-gassed (and worse) by the IDF.
That was one month after Israel's 51 day invasion of Gaza which resulted in 2,200 Palestinians killed, 550 of them children. Even in the wake of being attacked by Israel, Palestinians stood in solidarity with Black Lives Matter protesters in the US.
The residents of Gaza even painted a mural of George Floyd alongside symbols of solidarity with anti-racist protesters in the US.
Seeing DNC-aligned establihsment influencers cynically attack the pro-Palestine movement in the US for political gain is a gut punch not only to Muslim and Arab Americans but to the Palestinians of the West Bank and Gaza who have stood in solidarity with US protesters for decades.
So I guess this explains they were so sloppy yet aggressive with the whole “Talarico went to a mental hospital” thing. They just wanted something out there when this hit.

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation.
I will not be silenced.

Elon immediately suspended this account that showed Nick Sortor’s recorded call to the mental health facility was AI generated and is preventing community notes on the Sortor post.
It’s all hands on deck trying to make the fake Talarico story stick

JVP Action is proud to endorse Connie Chan for Congress!
Connie Chan is running on a platform that centers working families, affordability, fighting back against big-tech billionaires, and a human rights for all - from San Francisco to Palestine.
This is perhaps the one thing that would cause me to stop supporting Everton. Everything the club’s put me through in the last 5 years pales in comparison.
