I have not been an activist since the Nixon years. The fight against tyranny continues. It is Democracy vs. Fascism. Truth vs. lies. We must fight back with love, truth, purpose, and in huge numbers. This is a fight we must win! We are stronger together! youtu.be/wMALeR1i-FM

Jamie is soaring with the angels
Replying to @hwinkler4real
Wow, that is beautiful. This was my daughter Jaime back in 2018, months before the Parkland shooting. I hope your granddaughter loves dance as much as Jaime did.

None of the polling means anything if people donโ€™t show up tomorrow. If you havenโ€™t voted already, make a plan. If you have voted, call your friends and your relatives. We wonโ€™t get out of this mess overnight. Itโ€™ll take a few cycles. But this is our first glimpse at a future without MAGA. So get out there tomorrow.

Today, I sent a letter putting New Jerseyโ€™s port and terminal operators on notice: importing Russian diesel violates federal law and could carry serious civil and criminal consequences. New Jersey will not stand by while Donald Trump supports Vladimir Putin at the expense of Americans. Instead of lowering costs, these imports help finance Putinโ€™s war against Ukraine and a campaign of violence and terror that endangers our servicemembers abroad. As a Navy veteran, I cannot let that stand unchallenged. Our ports must not be complicit.

What if a federal agent walks into a polling place and demands the ballots? Watch this civics video. States run elections. No federal agency can seize ballots without a lawful court-issued warrant. Even then, it would be extraordinary federal interference in how states run their elections.

Pete Hegseth wanted a priceless WWII-era globe associated with Eisenhower moved into his office. His staff rushed the move, and the globe shifted, smashing down onto its base and leaving a gash near Antarctica while damaging its mount. The military historians who normally handled artifacts like this were furloughed during the shutdown and never brought back. Rather than wait for expert help that was required, Hegsethโ€™s staff tried moving it themselves. They dropped it. This sums up not only Hegsethโ€™s appointment, but the entire Trump presidency. 12 daysโ€ฆ

It's not often that I have nothing to add. But I have nothing to add to @scott_colom โ€˜s closing argument. This is why no vote should be left on the table. Voting is not a privilege; it is a right. Mississippi, you no longer have to guess the amount of jelly beans in a jar. Or bubbles in soap to vote. Yes there are other tactics being used. But as before, they can be overcome. Mississippi strong. Vote for @scott_colom #DemsUnited I guess I did have something to add.

El-Sayed will still win this race but my guess (and Iโ€™m sure @ZacharyDonnini would agree) is that he will underperform Benson by at least a couple points.
Based on historical reporting patterns, we expect Michigan's final 15% of votes tomorrow to come largely from Democratic areas and heavily favor Abdul El-Sayed. If those patterns hold, Mike Rogers could lead by 2.8 points at 12:54 a.m. in a race that ultimately finishes tied.

NEW: New Mexico is suing Jeffrey Epsteinโ€™s longtime lawyer Darren Indyke and accountant Richard Kahn, accusing them of helping facilitate and conceal his sex-trafficking operation at Zorro Ranch. The state alleges they managed financial transactions connected to the operation and received millions from Epstein. They also serve as co-executors of his estate, estimated at more than $100 million. Now the state wants to stop them from collecting estate payments, pursue damages for survivors, and hold them accountable. Epstein didnโ€™t operate in a vacuum. The question is whether the people who managed his money and helped run his affairs knowingly enabled his crimes. Both men deny participating in the abuse. But did they help cover it up?

A Venezuelan billionaire wanted a presidential pardon. His daughter hired Trumpโ€™s former personal lawyer, Alina Habba, to a deal worth more than $50 million over four years. Small problem, Habba was still a Justice Department official. She began working for the company on January 1. 14 days later, Trump pardoned that billionaire. Habba denies having any role in securing the pardon. The White House and DOJ say she was not involved in the clemency decision. Nobody is stupid enough to believe that. This company was newly formed, its business was unclear, and the financial arrangement was extraordinary. Now add the $3.5 million in MAGA Inc. donations from the billionaireโ€™s daughter, plus the separate dispute involving Habbaโ€™s new husband and his long-time friend Ric Grenell over a $17.6 million Congo-linked transfer. A $50 million deal. A presidential pardon 14 days later. Millions in political donations. And a separate fight over $17.6 million. Thatโ€™s taking grifts to the next level.
