The best part of watching that intense 14 inning game was knowing that no matter who lost, it wouldn’t be the Orioles!

Why has Dominion Voting Systems been settling defamation lawsuits with Trump allies who falsely claimed the company stole the 2020 election?

Because Dominion has just been bought by a company run by a former GOP election official.

Be warned.

Julius knocked these #postcardsToVoters off the table - I think he wants me to mail them early. I told him we have to wait, because of @environmentalvoter.bsky.social research. #catsOfBlueSky

Ten #PostcardsToVoters in the name of protecting democracy and reproductive freedom in Pennsylvania.

A lecherous traitor and his lackeys are dismantling democracy. Visit postcardstovoters.org for an easy and fun way to fight back.

The Yankees are on the brink of going home. I am tumescent. I cannot be a tormented but loyal fan of the Baltimore Orioles and be anything less.

Also, Canada deserves something nice. We've been assholes to them for a while now.

The richest man in Pennsylvania is trying to stack the courts there so this batch of #postcardstovoters is to help retain judges who follow the law. These reminders to vote are how I ward off doomscrolling & support democracy.

I refuse to let hopelessness prevail. This may just be one essay, by a lawyer few have heard of, in a newsletter read by a fraction of the public. But I will not stay silent.

Help spread the word! Judicial retention is on the ballot in PA this November - voting yes to #KeepFairJudges means voters have a voice in safeguarding the fairness of Pennsylvania's judiciary and protecting democracy. Voting truly is a superpower ! #PostcardsToVoters

A postcard with purple flowers says “Be a Voter” on one side. The other side has the message

Vote YES to keep judges who protect democracy and reproductive freedom.
Retain Supreme, Superior, and Commonwealth court judges who follow the law. Some of these Nov. 4 races may be on the back of your ballot.

Vote YES to keep judges who:
- follow the constitution not the demands of right wing billionaires
- voted to secure reproductive freedom
- ruled on equitable distribution of funding for every school district

If you think you’re going to check Bernie Sanders’s skyline and find him talking about the invasion of Black and Brown communities over the last week you’re wrong.

Again…there’s a reason Black Folks reject him time and again. His pretending racism doesn’t exist helped get us to where we are today🤷🏾‍♀️

Every Democrat at every level of office must denounce this madness Monday morning. Has to be huge outcry. We need to be incredibly loud.

Governor JB Pritzker @govpritzker.illinois.gov · 5d

We must now start calling this what it is: Trump’s Invasion. It started with federal agents, it will soon include deploying federalized members of the Illinois National Guard against our wishes, and it will now involve sending in another state’s military troops.

Even if you support massive deportation operations, under no circumstances should ANYONE be ok with US citizens being forcibly removed from their homes and detained without explanation.

This is a clear violation of their constitutional rights and should universally condemned.
