Shocking
Flávio Bolsonaro refuses to concede Brazil’s presidential election and will ask for the result to be annulled. “It is impossible to acknowledge the election results. We will ask for the elections to be annulled.”

Punk was a hated & mocked subculture in the 80s and now it’s bigger than our national patriotic spectacles. Anarchy will win. lol

Multiple Ohio venues are canceling or dropping Vivek Ramaswamy’s bus tour stops after his ad featuring Amy Acton’s estranged mother—who stayed with the stepfather charged with raping Acton at 12. Old Dog Ale House & Brewery in Delaware canceled a GOP ticket event. A Sunday service at CrossPointe Church in Westerville disappeared from the tour page. A Trumbull County stop now has no location listed. A top Ohio Republican: “We’re getting calls that people don’t want him there. It’s that damn ad.” Gov. DeWine called it wrong and urged it taken down. This is the blowback.

Right wing data guru says early turn out so bad she won’t share the info because it will have a morale breaking effect. Instead just bring your friends to vote. So sad when your fascist agenda isn’t popular.
I've been asked about early voting analysis. The dilemma I have is that my platform is big enough such that being too blunt can have an effect on morale. I'll push out new states and tools out to my website soon, but won't announce them here on 𝕏. I will be giving @realJeremyCarl my predictions a week in advance so he can hold me accountable after Election Day. You MUST turn out and bring their friends, and brace yourself on election night. Even TX is going to be a fight.

Vivek Ramaswamy’s wife is getting DROPPED by clients because she stands by her husband platforming the woman who enabled and ran off with Amy Acton’s rapist stepfather. If Apoorva can’t be trusted as a doctor, how can she be trusted as a First Lady?
Ohio’s next First Lady. A real doctor who saves lives, an incredible mother & wife, and an inspiration for the next generation.

Is that desperation I hear in his voice?
Rural Republicans must turn out to VOTE EARLY stop the Austin Democrats from taking over Texas. Get to the polls today and bring your friends and family.

Can this please be the death knell of Abundance Democrats?
Matthew Yglesias continues to say that talking about ICE and excessive force in immigration enforcement helps Republicans. He is obviously wrong about this and refuses to acknowledge the data. Way past time for everyone to update their priors on this.

Yglesias doesn't get anywhere near enough hatred. What a piece of shit. Only the Dems would consider him an intellectual.
Me: "Even if it was unpopular, are you saying the Democratic Party should not speak out against the president sending migrants who have committed no crimes to be tortured in a foreign gulag?" @mattyglesias: "Yeah." Me: "Just stay silent?" Yglesias: "I think that sometimes, if you want to help people... you gotta win first." Me: "They might be dead in three years time, by the time you win." Despite all the arguments on this hellsite over the exact number of his Piker tweets, this was the part of my interview with Matthew Yglesias that really stood out to me. I was actually stunned by this response. Shouldn't politics also stand for something more than triangulation, polling and 4-D chess strategizing? Full interview: zeteo.com/p/matt-yglesias-me…

Wow. Still going with the “roll over and play dead” strategy. How do we de-platform @mattyglesias?

Trump has systematically demolished every pillar of his support. In 2024 he created what could’ve been an enduring coalition by: Winning over Hispanic voters Winning a portion of Black voters Huge margins with men, largely around prices and the promise not to start new wars and put America first. He immediately: Tried to gut the Voting Rights Act and boot Black Caucus members from Congress. Terrorized Latino communities who wrongly thought he’d focus on deporting criminals and securing the border. Waged a war on Iran at the behest of Israel and drove up the price of everything. Systematically attacked every pillar of his support.
Here is every state with early/mail vote reporting ranked by the change in the share of votes cast by Black voters, relative to the same point in 2022. Could someone remind me which state the Callais case came from? (yes, Black turnout in LA is massive, with SC just behind)

Isn’t this who JD Vance and Donald Trump were looking for in 2024?
