Gross. So sick of the egotistical self-marketing of Joe & Jill Biden, Kamala Harris, Brett McGurk & so much of this entourage. The Biden years bequeathed us Trump II and some of the worst war crimes enablement in US history. Contrition, not self-congratulation, is in order.
My dad used to say, “Joey, when you get knocked down, get up.” I’ve leaned on those words my whole life, in politics and with my family, through the best days and the hardest ones. I write about that and more in my new book, PROMISE ME, AMERICA. It’s out November 17th, and you can preorder it now at PromiseMeAmerica.com. I’m looking forward to folks reading it.

Trying to wrap my mind around how absolutely heinous this order must have been for the **head of the IDF** to not be able to stomach going through with it.

To understand how Lula supporters are feeling right now, imagine Trump went to jail for his Jan 6 insurrection and then Biden/Harris defeated Don Jr in 2024.

Lemme pick that up for him: Yes, yes it is. A vote for Rogers is a vote for the Trump agenda.
Genuinely my favorite clip of the whole cycle

The Bernie team tried to get this into the Democratic platform in 2016, the Clinton team blocked it. We tried again in 2020, the Biden team blocked it. Glad folks are coming around but it’s absurd that it’s taken this long on what should be a noncontroversial point of fact.
One of many critical points in Jon Finer's excellent post-elections Israel policy agenda for Democrats: "A new approach should also start from the principle that U.S. policy will distinguish occupied territory and Israel proper." nytimes.com/2026/10/23/opini…

It is late October and people are voting every day, if you cannot give a full-throated endorsement to the Democratic nominee who could be the key vote in flipping the Senate, then stay the fuck off television
BASH: “You're still fully behind Abdul El-Sayed?” STEVENS: “Look, I'm on the Democratic ticket. I can't say that I agree with everything that's gone on… I'm looking to be on the team to support my next governor Jocelyn Benson, and frankly these great Democrats who are working their tails off, who are going to make Hakeem Jeffries the first black Speaker of the House.” BASH: “You didn't mention Abdul El-Sayed in that last answer.” STEVENS: “Well, look, I would just say, you had asked me if I'm still on the team, I'm on the team.”

Lula didn’t just take on Bolsonaro. He took on the technofeudalists, election interference by Meta, U.S. diplomats, and won. Impressive and inspiring. LFG.

wow -- a squirming Mike Rogers gets flustered as Kristen Welker points out that while he attacks El-Sayed over the Muslim Brotherhood, *Rogers himself* defended the Muslim Brotherhood during the same period of time that El-Sayed did!

🚨 BREAKING: Lula is projected to WIN reelection as president of Brazil, defeating Flávio Bolsonaro, son of former President Jair Bolsonaro and an ally of Donald Trump. The projection comes just ONE DAY after Reuters exposed a Trump administration effort to help return the Bolsonaro family to power. A major political upset in Brazil.

#KansasSenate Adam Hamilton on transgender rights: “I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself.” “I’m gonna love the trans person as well as the straight person, male or female. We have to do better than picking on small groups. What’s happened is we’ve turned a group of people into a campaign issue because it polls well.”

This is a coup attempt. They’re turning off traffic lights and canceling bus routes and flights and ferries on election day. The world needs to be paying attention
Multiple cities in Brazil including São Paulo and Salvador which both went for Lula in the first round are reporting having significant parts of their public transport system taken offline as part of vote suppression tactics by pro Bolsonaro politicians

Average red-state Democratic candidate: former Navy SEAL turned small-town pediatrician, has never once said a curse word Average blue-state Republican candidate:
The Republican candidate for Senate in Massachusetts has openly admitted to being a pedophile btw and no one cares

Unsurprisingly, Sen. Collins joined Clr, Flynn in calling for cancellation of today’s Southie block party, similarly mischaracterizing the host — a Southie resident — as a commercial event promoter.
Photos of the lovely block party that Councilor Flynn tried to cancel, and will very likely blow up in the Herald and Mass Daily News. Flynn has already trashed the host as “an influencer of some sort,” a Southie resident that I understand lives around the corner, on Broadway.

Remember when Florida Republicans paid a random guy with the same last name as the Democrat to run in a Senate race to confuse voters? Then the Democrat lost by 32 votes? Someone went to jail for that but nobody blocked the election results.
