Lula’s personal attorney, now a judge in Brazil, appears to be presiding over the open rigging of Brazil’s election today.
According to Brazilian observers, the corrupt judge waited until pro-Bolsonaro precincts had closed their polls and then said only polls still open—most of which were pro-Lula—could remain open.
A decisão do Min. Zanin provavelmente acarrete a anulação do segundo turno eleitoral no Brasil. A liminar foi comunicada quando algumas urnas já haviam sido lacradas e simplesmente não há como as reabrir.
Em paralelo, é ilegal haver início da apuração com a votação ainda em curso, e isso está acontecendo.
Para os que prediziam algum tipo de "golpe", ele foi dado.
Agora é esperar as consequências.

This was always their plan, they just pretend it’s not till they get into office.
He did not win. Get your facts straight morons.
Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, in a stunning political comeback, won reelection Sunday over conservative Sen. Flávio Bolsonaro who had pledged to join President Trump’s “Shield of the Americas” security and political initiative. wapo.st/4jZB8Z5
As well he should.

Incredible to visit Israel last week & pray at the Western Wall. Anyone of ANY faith can pray at the Western Wall, the holiest site in Judaism. Prior to the 1967 Six Day War access was restricted while now anyone of any faith can visit. As a Christian, I’m grateful that the IDF protects some of Christianity’s holiest sites, including the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the site of Christ’s crucifixion and Resurrection. Look forward to posting this week photos from the journey.
He cheated. This is what they always do on the left when they are going to lose. Gonna end up like Venezuela.

I want to share a little story about @KenPaxtonTX that nobody else knows.
Back in 2014, our daughter Kaitlyn was a freshman at Baylor University, along with Ken’s youngest daughter, Abby.
Apparently, Kaitlyn had decided her freshman year should include a side career in rescuing stray dogs. 😂
After finding yet another dog that needed a home, she called and asked me to drive to Waco to pick it up.
I told her, “Kaitlyn, you’re going to have to find somebody else’s parent this time. I cannot keep driving to Waco collecting stray dogs!”
A little while later, she called back and said, “It’s okay, Mom. Abby’s dad will take him.”
Abby’s dad was Ken Paxton.
And sure enough, Ken drove to Waco, picked up that black Lab, took him home, and made him part of their family.
I’ve remembered that story for more than a decade because I’ve always believed the little things tell you an awful lot about someone’s character.
There were no cameras, no reporters, and no political points to be scored. Just a daughter who called her dad because a dog needed a home.
And her dad showed up.
I’ve watched Ken Paxton fight for Texas as our Attorney General, taking on powerful interests and standing firm in battles that weren’t always easy or popular. His record is unmatched by any other AG nationwide.
But long before I knew much about his political record, I got a little glimpse of the man behind the title. And sometimes, those are the stories that tell you the most about a person.
I’m exceptionally proud to support Ken Paxton, and I know he will make an outstanding Senator for Texas. Because Texas doesn’t need another politician who knows how to win an election. We need a fighter who knows how to stand his ground when it matters most.
Two groups we shouldn’t let within 100 miles of our curriculum. Keep fighting @Nelsontiffanyb, Jennifer and I voted for you this morning. 😃
An unlikely alliance: the LGBTQ Caucus and CAIR, the Council on American Islamic Relations, designated a foreign terr*rist organization in Texas, Florida and the UAE, both backing my Democrat opponent for State Board of Education.
She’s seeking a voice on the State Board of Education over what 5.5 million Texas students learn. Who’s backing her matters.
I will always stand for American and Texas values.

We saw this coming with Zach Lambert and removed him as a seminary intern at Prestonwood. A sad case of apostasy on display now
Replying to @ZachWLambert
Christian since 5. Pastor since 19. That's a résumé, Zach, not a confession. Arius was ordained too. An apostate rarely leaves the church. He stays in the pulpit and rewrites the faith. That's you.
You told a same-sex couple their marriage "brings great joy to the heart of God." You posted that there are "absolutely no 'biblical' grounds for being anti-trans." Jesus disagreed: "From the beginning of creation, 'God made them male and female'" (Mark 10:6).
Baker Publishing carries us both as authors. I'd ask them to put our pictures as far apart as the east is from the west (Psalm 103:12). Jesse Myers needs to take care of that or I am out at Baker. @ReadBakerBooks
You champion a man who told the Texas House "God is non-binary" and used Luke 1 to defend abortion. Luke calls the child in the womb a brephos, a baby (1:41), the same word he uses for Jesus in the manger. The most vulnerable Texan can't vote. You just voted against him.
You described "the way of Jesus" without the cross. Paul called that a different gospel and its preacher anathema, set apart for destruction (Galatians 1:8). Jude called such men "waterless clouds" and "fruitless trees in late autumn, twice dead, uprooted" (Jude 12).
Repent while the door is open.
I have no respect for and don’t want a government that treats its citizens like kindergartners. This is how communists think James. 🚩

James Talarico belongs at home in Austin so he can spend all his time contemplating his whiteness.
Not representing us for the next six years in the U.S. Senate.
Replying to @jamestalarico
White skin gives me and every white American immunity from the virus. But we spread it wherever we go—through our words, our actions, and our systems. We don’t have to be showing symptoms—like a white hood or a Confederate flag—to be contagious.
Early voting continues through Friday, Oct. 30.
I'd be honored to have your vote for #HD130. Find your polling place and make a plan to go before the lines on Nov. 3: votetexas.gov #txlege

FACT CHECK: James Talarico says he passed "60 bipartisan bills" in the Texas House.
I pulled his official Texas Legislature member reports for every session since 2019.
Bills Talarico authored that became law: 10.
Three were local or ceremonial: a highway naming, a utility district, and dam work for a water district. That leaves seven real laws in four terms.
In 2025, he authored 48 bills. Zero became law.
His "largest early childhood education bill in our state's history"? Written by a Republican. Talarico was a coauthor.
His insulin cap? Written by a Republican. His bill died in committee.
Verdict: False. Ten is not sixty. He is counting other people's bills as his own.

I was talking about 3rd party vendors who do arbitrations en masse for a %, not the arbitration fee schedule itself. They need a haircut, big time.
Cap the fees for arbitration. Make it a flat fee instead of a percentage.
I dug into the finances of the three nonprofit arbitrators resolving No Surprises Act disputes. For every dollar they made in '25, ~half was pure profit.
