Feel good stories #politics edition no. 1: my Republican husband walked into the house Wednesday morning, carrying groceries, with a fresh haircut and said, “Honey, I just voted for more blue than I ever have in my whole life.” Let it be known, he has never cast a vote for TFG, but down-ballot blue is new!

Now that Halloween is behind us it's time to brace ourselves for the scariest holiday: Election Day

Jeffrey Epstein details close relationship with Trump in newly released tapes

Recordings from 2017 reveal Epstein talking for some ‘100 hours’ about the ex-president, journalist Michael Wolff says

Take a long look at this list of what government provides. Most of these things will be on Elon Musk’s chopping block if Trump is re-elected. #Politics

This was in a Halloween parade in Mt. Pleasant Borough, PA, east of Pittsburgh. It's a depiction of Kamala attached by a chain to a golf cart with a depiction of TFG on it.
Biden was right, these people are garbage.

Nick Knudsen on Twitter:
This ad, when tested, moves under-30-men by 2+ points away from Donald Trump.

That’s HUGE MOVEMENT!

@Bix

The rage this brings up in me is unimaginable.

@LnzyHou
This part of the issue is not even about abortion, IT IS ABOUT PROTECTING WOMEN.

Damn Republicans think that this is a slippy slope towards abortion - which makes me angry.

This is not intended to be dismissive of a potentially historic moment. Anyone else almost oblivious to Harris' race & gender in terms of becoming president? Maybe it's her opponent and the crisis at hand, but she is clearly the best presidential candidate of any party this year. The history making is in the preserving and protecting our democracy from falling. And maybe, just maybe regaining lost progress while making additional progress.

“JD Vance made a bold claim to Joe Rogan during his appearance on Rogan’s podcast Thursday: that Donald Trump is actually popular with ‘normal’ gay men.”

I finally convinced partner that he’s queer.

I wonder if the Republican Party knows they are pushing for the first gay President?

“A number of them have been driven around in the back of a seatless U-Haul van, according to video obtained by WIRED, and threatened that their lodging at a local motel wouldn’t be paid for if they didn’t meet canvassing quotas.”

Coyotes at the border moving immigrants?

Nope.

Musk, the richest man on Earth, treating Americans as undocumented workers

This is Musk’s idea of how he will treat workers if Trump wins.

Because cruelty is the point.

This is murder in my book, and this must end. The only way it ends is if we deny Trump power and purge our government of the GOP. Roevember 5th is coming.

CNN: Trump is almost 2 billion in debt and the amount is growing

Bix: Our nation's secrets are worth hell of a lot more than $2 billion, a big reason why Trump wants into the White House.

Daniel Dale, CNN:
Donald Trump is running a relentlessly dishonest presidential campaign of staggeringly frequent and varied lying whose only precedent is Donald Trump’s own previous presidential campaigns:

“ Musk hasn’t responded to CNN’s requests for comment on the report. He also hasn’t responded to CNN’s requests for comment about remarks he once made describing his past immigration status as a “gray area.” In a post on X, where video circulated of President Biden referencing the Washington Post report’s claims, Musk denied that he’d worked without authorization.”

According to immigration lawyers it really isn’t a gray area. Is he a pretend lawyer as well?
