Keisha Lance Bottoms: Slick Rick Jackson is so desperate he even gave Donald Trump $2 million to buy his endorsement during the Republican primary. Slick Rick has made it clear that his #1 priority will be to do whatever his big daddy Donald Trump tells him to do.

Keisha Lance Bottoms: Georgia, we are a state with a rich legacy. We are the home of Congressman John Lewis, who reminded us that democracy is an act, and each generation must do its part to protect it. We are the home of President Jimmy Carter, who said the most powerful title is that of citizen. We are the home of Coretta Scott King, who said there comes a time when time itself is ready for a change. Well, Georgia, that time is now—and no wannabe dictator will stop our momentum.

Ossoff: "Georgia will bow to no king!"
He then welcomes Obama to the stage. Here's his entrance. The crowd goes nuts.

NEW: A federal judge on Wednesday rejected the Trump administration’s request for a temporary restraining order that would have forced California to set aside and not count ballots from 20,000 people the Department of Justice alleges may be noncitizens. democracydocket.com/news-ale…

Ossoff: Tech titans build bunkers while warning the artificial intelligence they're creating risks human extinction. Meanwhile, our Congress debates youth sports, and the president builds a ballroom. An ancient establishment barely capable of email sleepwalks into a technological revolution, while the president dismantles precautions and calls us fools for worrying.
So you see this scenario, and it fills you with dread. I get it. But, Georgia, we can and will reclaim control over our own destiny. We can and will meet our obligations to our children. And it begins with victory this fall.

Donald Trump and his cronies hate me because I fight win. When they attack me, I wear their scorn as a badge of honor.

Well thats not a good thing to say about someone who went through that kind of tragedy. We live in a world where the belief now is empathy is for the weak. If you cant empathize with someone who miscarried or lost a child...that just makes you a sociopath.

Asian-Americans in Harvard’s Incoming Class More Than Double, to 43.2 Percent
Newly released data on the Harvard College class of 2030 say the class is 43.2 percent Asian-American, a record high and more than double the level when Students for Fair Admissions first sued Harvard alleging racial discrimination in admissions.
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in 2023 that Harvard was unlawfully using race as a factor in admissions. Since then, the numbers of Hispanic and black students in the incoming Harvard classes have dipped, while the numbers of Asian-Americans have soared.

I am endlessly fascinated by this race.

Is it good for the GOP when the Republican president has to go to R+22 Louisiana the night before Election Day or?
Trump announces he’s doing a tele-rally for #LASEN nominee Julia Letlow on the eve of the election. Mike Johnson will join

Donald John Trump just announced that he and James Michael Johnson will do an election eve telerally for Julia Letlow, who is running for Senate in Louisiana.
Trump won the state by 22 percent in 2024
22. Percent.
In sports media, the rule of thumb is to watch what media companies do and not what they say.
Again: This dude @WinWithJMC below is the one to follow for that great state.
This dude below is probably the most notable Louisiana election data analyst.
Something fascinating to me as an election junkie is the black EV turnout in his state this year. These are massive spikes from 2022.
What will it mean? I have zero expertise on LA politics but I thought it was really interesting.
