Let me get this straight. @GregAbbott_TX gives $2B in tax breaks to his largest campaign donor Musk, then appoints his hand-picked comptroller to administer & oversee compliance of those incentives, who also has financial stake in Musk’s companies. They really are selling Texas

A warning to Donald Trump: I’m deploying election lawyers to key battleground districts in California to protect every vote. And I just made it a FELONY to illegally seize ballots.

Trump is reportedly planning to restart war with Iran after the election. Some of us have been briefed on the war plan. And while I cannot disclose any details, I can say this: the plan is insane. It will not achieve objectives and will set off a new cycle of escalation.

Wonderful news: Murera has given birth to a baby girl this morning! Her daughter entered the world bathed in the light of a near-full moon, perfect in every way. We’ve named her Mwezi, which means moon in Swahili. Murera chose to give birth in her stockade, the place that has been her nighttime sanctuary all these years. Her delivery couldn’t have been more seamless – in fact, by the time the Keepers heard the rumbles and rushed to her side, it was all over! Mother and baby are doing very well, while Mwana is already proving to be an excellent and attentive big sister. More to come, but we're filled with joy and wanted to share Mwezi’s first moments with you. (Word is already out amongst the elephants – this morning, every wild-living Umani orphan showed up to meet the newest member of their family!) Congratulations to our extraordinary Murera: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/o…

Whether you like where Mary Peltola reportedly did in Alaska or not, it’s ironic that one of the guys objecting the most loudly ran as a convicted felon after trying to overturn an election. It’s up to Alaska voters to decide how they feel about it.

Pardons are bought and sold. Contracts are steered to friends and family. Bribes are solicited and received in broad daylight. ➡️ No one is charged. American communities are terrorized by armed, masked government agents. People are held in detention under the cruelest of conditions. Citizens are shot and killed on city streets. ➡️ No one is held to account. We exist to change that. Help us restore the expectation that the criminal conduct has consequences. zeffy.com/en-US/donation-for…

Look, the simple truth is that on November 3rd, the Republican Party needs to be punished. The Republican Party needs to be punished BIG TIME for continuing to embrace a sociopathic madman who is a traitor to, and an enemy of, America. VOTE.

Jared Kushner is possibly the greatest mafia runner that has ever existed. We are talking about $ billions in money exchanges, hiring hit men, assassinations, money laundering, recruitment of criminal foreigners, bribing, and help starting wars. The dude is evil genius criminal.

Just a casual reminder that Germans who “didn’t bother to vote” in 1932 didn’t get a chance again until 1946, after Hitler’s death. — There’s a lesson there.

Abdul El-Sayed: “The worst of the Big Ugly Bill hasn’t even hit yet. They knew it would be so disastrous to working people that they didn’t actually make it take effect until after the midterms. In January, Medicaid cuts, ACA subsidy cuts, all of that is gonna get worse. It’s about to be a nuclear bomb that goes off on our healthcare system”

MACGREGOR'S NUCLEAR WARNING: WASHINGTON HAS NO STRATEGY AND MAY REACH FOR THE BOMB Col. Douglas Macgregor, the retired U.S. Army officer known for blunt military assessments, just laid out his deepest fear for the next phase of the Iran conflict. He does not focus on missiles or carriers. He focuses on the one weapon that changes everything. With no real strategy in Washington and a political class that refuses to understand the enemy, the path to a tactical nuclear weapon is no longer unthinkable. THE CORE WARNING ➡️ War is inevitable and another round is coming. ➡️ Whether it is a three-day intensive campaign, a pause, then another 48-hour burst, Macgregor says the exact shape is unknown. ➡️ “The thing that concerns me most is not the high-end conventional munitions that will be used. It’s the possibility that we would turn to the use of a tactical nuclear weapon.” ➡️ That is what worries him most, because the United States has no strategy and never has. THE WASHINGTON FANTASY ➡️ Discussions on the Hill reduce everything to a simple formula: go get the IRGC, find them, kill them, and the rest of the state will fall apart. ➡️ Macgregor calls this pure nonsense. ➡️ “People don’t know what the hell they’re talking about. They don’t understand Iran. Nobody understands the Iranians. Nobody cares to. Nobody thinks it’s important. That’s our biggest single problem.” THE HISTORICAL ECHO ➡️ The current pattern mirrors the 1973 oil embargo that followed the Yom Kippur War, when Arab states restricted exports to countries supporting Israel. ➡️ Most of Europe and Japan folded then; the United States doubled down. ➡️ Today other allies have stepped back while Washington has gone into war with Iran and continues to press NATO to join. ➡️ The difference is that the United States is no longer the same country: sovereign debt is far worse, inflation is higher than admitted, manufacturing has been hollowed out, the middle class has been largely destroyed, and the armed forces are smaller. THE LEADERSHIP GAP ➡️ Nixon, for all the attacks on him, was a brilliant strategic thinker and capable diplomat who treated counterparts with a sense of equality. ➡️ Today’s leadership, Macgregor says, shows no interest in diplomacy and treats everyone as irrelevant. ➡️ Israeli influence over the United States is infinitely stronger than in the 1970s, operating not merely through the state of Israel but through international Jewish finance and billionaires committed to the Zionist project who hold pipelines into the White House, Senate, and House. THE BOTTOM LINE Macgregor’s warning is simple and stark: a country with no strategy, no understanding of Iran, and a political class still living in 1991 is the country most likely to reach for a tactical nuclear weapon when conventional options fail. That is the sound of a superpower walking toward the unthinkable because it never bothered to learn the enemy. #MacgregorWarning #TacticalNuclear #IranWar #NoStrategy #WashingtonFantasy #NuclearRisk #HormuzCrisis HT: YouTube Mario Nawfal

Let me repeat that: there are a *hundred* discrete, Trump-sponsored schemes to rig this election. And they'll have an impact. That means they're historically relevant and urgently salient no matter what happens in the midterms. America has a right to know what was done to us.

Obama: "I'm not making this up -- the president of the United States is spending time supergluing gold medallions to the mantle in the Oval Office. He's literally doing arts and crafts while we are fighting a war and trying to deal with out of control prices."

Republicans are furious about a "decoy" Dan Sullivan on Alaska's ballot. Fair enough. Now do Miami, 2020. A GOP operative paid a guy named Rodriguez to run against a Democrat named Rodriguez. The Republican won by 32 votes. The operative got convicted. The Republican kept the seat. Nobody at DOJ sued to block that one.
