People ask what they can do in this moment: here's a crucially important election. There are 52,000 elections taking place next month, many of which will be determined by turnout.
Dispatch from Pennsylvania on a highly unusual state Supreme Court election—one of the few most consequential matters on the ballot anywhere in the country next month. New from me in @boltsmag.org: boltsmag.org/pennsylvania...
Inside the Clunky Elections to Control Pennsylvania's Supreme Court - Bolts
The GOP is making an expensive push to end Democrats’ majority on a court at the center of election lawsuits, sparking a fledging campaign season with little precedent or template.

The House has chosen not to work and is withholding the swearing-in of newly elected Democrat Adelita Grijalva. She still hasn’t been seated, and it definitely feels intentional since her signature would provide the last vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.

Removed and attempted destroyed. It's back, with shitgibbon's head apparently cracked right down the middle. Talk about realism, hahhaa. It's been repaired, and IMHO... the marks of abuse increase the power it has.

It’s back! The “Best Friends Forever” statue, depicting two bronze-toned figures of Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein holding hands, reappeared on the National Mall near the Capitol today. The artwork was originally installed last week but was removed on Sept. 24.

We’ve gotten several messages that the Trump administration has tampered with federal employees’ email systems, making some people’s automatic Out of Office replies blame the government shutdown on the “radical left.” This was done without the employees’ knowledge.

CNBC: "Very disappointing. It's a weak number. This is private sector jobs for September. The total comes in -32,000. And that was a surprise because economists were looking for an increase of 51,000. Also, the revision was not good. August now showing -3,000 compared to the initial read of 54,000"

Q: When he tried to hand you that Trump 2028 hat, what was your reaction?
JEFFRIES: They just randomly appeared in the middle of the meeting on the desk. It was the strangest thing ever. I just looked at the hat, looked at JD Vance & said, 'Don't you got a problem with this?' He said, 'No comment.'

My thoughts when hearing Hegseth live was that there are so many POC and women that serve. Including high ranking Generals and Admirals. How humiliating to sit through that and hear that you aren’t worthy or that you skipped the line because of your skin color.

For context Hegseth was basically fired from every job he had, including resigning from his national guard duty because he had a Deus Vult tattoo. He got fired from all his other jobs for drinking and abusing women on the job.
