To argue that @AbdulElSayed’s religion makes him unfit for public office appeals to the worst demons in our nature.

Absolutely BRUTAL two minutes for Mike Lawler on Morning Joe as the panel dismantles his faux independence: @ScarboroughNow: “Lawler voted with Donald Trump 282 out of 282 times.” Mika: “Oh wait, that’s not standing up to him.” 🧵(1/4)

The Ramaswamy ad has pushed the largest newspaper in Ohio, the Cleveland Plain Dealer, to reverse its position on endorsements. "A candidate who uses childhood sexual abuse as a weapon against the person who endured it has crossed a line that Ohioans should defend, whatever their party.  We are better than this. We have a responsibility to show it. Today we endorse Democrat Amy Acton for governor." cleveland.com/open/2026/10/w…

🚨OBAMA GOES FOR TRUMP’s JUGULAR. OBAMA: “He's got the White House looking like Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory. It's gold everywhere.”
🚨Obama steps out at the Ohio rally! AND THE CROWD IS GOING NUTS. Trump is going to have a very bad night when he sees this.

OMFG! This response from @AbdulElSayed to a completely bigoted question is probably the best thing I’ve heard all year. Every bigot in America needs to listen to this three times.

BREAKINGNEWS: France President Emmanuel Macron says Vladimir Putin has refused the recent ceasefire announced by Trump. Saying Russia has continued to bomb Ukraine infrastructure just minutes later. That Europe will continue to stand with Ukriane. 🚨

Oh my god... Annie Andrews just NUKED Darline Graham with "DATA CENTER DARLINE" on live TV. 💥 Graham's response? Clutching her pearls over "name calling"... Yeah, the same woman who time and time again refused to condemn Trump for nicknaming Annie.

Senator Mark Kelly is publicly pushing back against Pete Hegseth. Kelly accused Hegseth of removing senior Defense Department leaders for racist and sexist reasons. Raise your hand ✋ if you support Kelly and simply tired of seeing Pete Hegseth in that office😞

Donald Trump and his sons have raked in BILLIONS while Americans struggle to make ends meet. Let's call this what it is: blatant corruption and an abuse of power.

🔥 @KatiePhang (With Deniro behind her): “I’m suing A.G. Todd Blanche — Trump’s cosplaying personal lawyer — for the unredacted Epstein files… as an independent journo 🗣️ I don’t have a corporate oligarch telling me what to say… Trump has been violating federal law every day.”

🚨FLORIDA🚨 If you’re not already doing so it’s time to lean into your State Legislative (State House/State Senate) seats. We have a chance to break the Republican supermajority. Let’s seize the opportunity!
🚨FORECAST LAUNCHES🚨 We're launching our state government forecasts today in WA, OR, WY, SD, OK, and TN. We now have forecasts in every state but Vermont. Democrats currently have a net gain of 374 state legislative seats nationwide. projects.statenavigate.com/2…

Scott Galloway tells El-Sayed that using the term genocide potentially justifies a genocide against Jews. El-Sayed responds: 1) Do we have to wait until more people get killed? 2) Calling something a genocide does not justify a genocide. That is not the argument anyone's making. 3) Neither you nor I are scholars on genocide. I leave it to scholars on genocide in Israel itself who've called this a genocide.

Kraft got too comfortable with his status and lifted the veil for a BUNCH of new people. Thankfully people are starting to see what’s happening and it’s only getting louder.

I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.
