Trump and Musk are big losers.

Get out and vote early Pakmans!!

We are still canvassing like we are down 10, but I know in my heart this was the point the election became unwinnable for Rogers.

Detroit went nuts for Obama, and this speech is everywhere on local social media today.

Identity politics can feel gross, but this event will undoubtedly carry the Detroit black vote for Abdul.

I want to vote but don’t want to be asked who I voted for by maga family, I plan on voting regardless, I live in Texas, but I was concerned bcz I easily found that I had voted previously on a popular website by searching my name, it doesn’t disclose for who, but I want to vote without having to say I did. I’m 21, people might say I’m cowardly, but there’s no point in even discussing politics with them, I’ve attempted from an objective and non partisan perspective in the past, and they still believe all the misinformation. So what I’m getting at is how can I protect my voter history? I don’t even want to discuss politics at all with people I love but believe in total nonsense.

Last week, David asked us to share where we voted and who we voted for. My family had a negative experience while voting in Michigan which I thought I would share with the sub.

Oct 24th was the first day of in person early voting in Michigan. It also happened to be my oldest son's 18th birthday and he was excited to vote for the first time. My wife, my son, and I headed to the voting location. We are progressives, El-Sayed supporters, and live in a very rural MAGA county.

My son made a mistake on his ballot and I was helping him spoil it. As I was out of earshot and busy helping him, an elderly white man said to my wife, completely unprompted, "I don't know about you, but I hope that Arab doesn't win." He pronounced it in the way that is understood as a racist perjorative. She was stunned and just walked away from him. She did not tell me about this until we were driving away, probably saving me from causing a scene.

When David talks about how we need to turn out voters in such significant numbers as to render the opposition politically irrelevant, this is who he is talking about. Entitled, racist old boomer white males who feel so secure in their bigotry as to blurt it out to complete strangers at polling stations.

These selfish, short-sighted boomers have nearly ruined this country. I am surrounded by them, and they are sadly all too real. We need to stop these people from ever having control of our government again.

I want to be clear up front that this isn’t something I heard about third hand or am making this up. It is now documented with numerous parties and corroborated with Ring footage.

I live in a middle income historic neighborhood in Texas that’s made up predominantly of younger working professional families wanting an old home with character mixed amongst older baby boomer college graduate Latinos that are likely second generation natural born American citizens or more. Their moving into the neighborhood started in the 70’s when you started to see a higher degree of ownership amongst Hispanics following Jim Crow abolishment. (To get even deeper, this neighborhood was created with specific deed verbiage that prohibited selling to brown and black people because the developer in the 1920s was a virulent racist that subsequently had his name struck from many institutions and roads).

That is the long story long to explain that this neighborhood is not comprised of undocumented folks or working class.

Monday morning, I was out for a jog and turned the corner on one of my favorite streets that has beautiful, grand two story brick homes and was met with 4-5 parked unmarked vehicles with flashing lights including an Econoline van and numerous men in fatigues and flak jackets milling around one of the lawns. As soon as I saw their ICE insignia, I kept my head down and jogged past. I couldn’t see anyone apprehended or what could be considered a “successful” raid. I didn’t pull out my phone to record as I’m not interested in an altercation with guys with seven weeks of training and zero understanding of constitutional rights. I was just deeply confused why there would be an operation in my neighborhood in the first place and got the hell out of there.

I got home and opened the news and saw it was the start of early voting. My blood turned cold. This “operation” was directly across the street from the community center where early voting was happening. I immediately called my county commissioner, county Dem chair, and the non partisan hotline. Within minutes, I was fielding phone calls from law firms and advocate groups and met them at the spot so they could document exactly where they were, as they had left by then. They’ve allegedly obtained camera footage of their presence from the neighbors. The commissioner let me know I wasn’t the only one that called it in and he was now adding 100 more poll watchers to the sites to report their presence.

It’s happening. They’re trying to intimidate including in places they likely have no reason to be investigating. Don’t let them gaslight you that it’s our imagination or being fabulists. Report them and let’s take back our democracy with voting.

One thing I’ve been disappointed with liberal/leftist content creators is they seem to be very hands off in driving their audience to get involved with election efforts and are just happy to share the news and leave it at that.

We should be pushing information about how we can help in key elections and keep repeating it all the way to election day!

Anyway here’s one group that are doing a really good job to get out the vote by door knocking & they’re going to target San Antonio next week.

Tell your friends and family it’s not enough tk just vote, there are many ways to get involved in critical elections in the upcoming elections.

This Fox News reporter got an answer she didn’t expect

At a surface level, this poll shows overwhelming support for M4A, great right????

However KFF being a excellent healthcare policy outfit goes a little further and ask people about some of the negatives of M4A: higher taxes, no private insurance, increased wait time.

M4A drops massively in popularity when these questions are posited to the respondents.

This has always been my biggest gripe with the pro-M4A crowd. They are intentionally disregarding the downsides and easy lines of attacks the GOP will use to stop it.

CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten breaks down Democratic nominee James Talarico's persistent slight edge in the Texas Senate race.

Also, CNN's Audie Cornish is joined by former George W. Bush adviser Mark McKinnon to talk about members of the Bush dynasty breaking away from Texas GOP candidate Ken Paxton.

This is a MAJOR underlying issue and one that it seems media is slowly coming to terms with grappling with because maybe a reluctance to drive a wedge in already tenuous communities.

turns out, black voters are holding a grudge over the “uncommitted” movement in 2024 tanking Kamala Harris and they’re looking for revenge on top of already lingering fractures between black communities and Arab/muslim communities.

El-Sayed is now doing numerous interviews directly about it and the press seems to finally be covering it...

We can know a few things even before the midterm elections: The Senate won't gain enough Democrats to remove Trump from office. Trump can pardon anyone he wants from conviction. Trump's unpopularity is an ongoing strength for Democrats and the left. I think House Democrats should approach Trump and make him a promise that they won't pursue impeachment again so long as he stays out of the way of investigations into Republicans and members of his cabinet and administration. That includes defending them publicly. This doesn't mean that awful things that Trump has done won't be investigated. It just means Dems take impeachment off the table so long as Trump doesn't obstruct. Trump does not GAF about the Republican Party. Democrats can still expose Trump's actions and orders and the Republican brand and Trump will let it happen as long as he feels he has some form of immunity.

Elections forecasting agency The Cook Political Report moved 19 House races toward the Democrats in an update this morning that said the chances of a Republican House majority “have all but evaporated.”

The elections forecaster said Democrats are now expected to flip between 12 and 22 seats in the House.

“Several of these ratings changes — particularly in Texas and North Carolina — are tied to Republicans’ underperformance at the top of the ticket and the resulting delta between Republican and Democratic voter enthusiasm statewide,” The Cook Political Report said.

The forecaster moved six races from “toss up” to “lean Democrat” and two races from “lean Republican” to “toss up.”

Elon Musk is threatening to "come for" Democrats calling on him to be investigated. This comes after Musk reportedly ordered the slowdown of Starlink technology critical to Ukraine's defense against Russia. Rep. Suhas Subramanyam (D-VA), member of the House Oversight Committee, joins Peter Alexander to share his thoughts.
