![“From the standpoint of eternity, there is hardly any difference between a ‘long’ and a ‘short’ life. Therefore, it’s not whether one’s life is long or short, but how one lives that is important. It is what we accomplish, the degree to which we develop our state of life, the number of people we help become happy―that is what matters.”—Daisaku Ikeda

BREAKINGNEWS; Secretary Pete Hegseth claims that only one or two countries contributed to Afghanistan war. This is a lie. 32 countries had two or more deaths. 16 countries had over 10 deaths. 3 countries had over 90 deaths. Canada 159, UK 457. 🚨

This is great.
Georgia Senator Jon Ossoff on Trump’s Corruption:
“If you're involved in any of this, next year, you'll be raising your right hand and swearing to tell the truth, the whole truth, and and nothing but the truth, so help you God in front of the United States Congress."
This should be enough for you to vote Democrat in a few weeks.

Unbelievable and shameful.
Latest: Zelenskyy tells reporters over WhatsApp that restrictions on Ukraine's Starlink systems remain. Interceptor drones can't function, logistics and operations hobbled. The maximum speed is 161 kph; "exceeding this limit causes the Starlink connection to cut out completely, resulting in the loss of the drone."
He says Ukraine has done tests to determine whether SpaceX is truly facing technical issues, as has been told Kyiv by the US side, or if this is a "deliberate operation... to restrict us, cut us off, and prevent us from defending ourselves and protecting our people, both at the front and among the civilian population."
He says Ukraine "sent a couple of vehicles equipped with Starlink terminals into European Union territory."
"They moved at speeds exceeding 180kph, and the Starlink systems worked perfectly. We have the relevant logs and evidence to prove this."
He adds: "The conclusion is clear: the restrictions are in effect within Ukraine but do not apply within the European Union. In other words, this is a planned operation."

A blue wave isn’t enough. We need a BLUE TSUNAMI.
From New Hampshire to California, we have an opportunity to send a message across this country that we’re BETTER than this.
November 3. Let’s TAKE IT BACK.

If our leaders in Congress actually did their jobs, came together, and did even one thing to save lives after every school shooting, this would end. Every other developed country has figured out how to stop school shootings, and so can we. We can disagree all we want on solutions, but we can't let that distract from what we all agree on: doing nothing is not an option.
Authorities in Bend, Oregon say a shooting at Silver Rail Elementary School has left behind multiple victims, including children. A shooter was shot and killed, police say.
At least two people were taken to a local hospital for treatment, but information on their conditions and total number of injuries remain unclear. cbsn.ws/4zy6Mky

It’s good to know we can all agree they’ve “gone too far” when they want to execute someone live on TV.
Resign, Pete Hegseth.

This is who Trump is supporting.
Russia just attacked a supermarket in Odessa. Ukraine filled with innocent civilians.
Why are we supporting the bad guys?

The Supreme Court is losing respect in the eyes of the people because of its naked partisanship. We need reform - and now is the time.

A teenager used a gun to murder innocent children.
An educator died in a job that should not be life threatening.
And yet the GOP majority will again resist any meaningful effort to stop the next school shooting.
This is the reality of the current Congress. And it’s heartbreaking.

Ukraine to resume strikes on Russian refineries, Zelenskyy says.
This is the most honest interview with Zelensky I’ve ever read. He drops all niceties about Trump and says it how it is. I don’t know how he held his tongue for so long.

James Talarico is what American politics needs. He represents logic and unity.
.@JamesTalarico: My decision to stay home for a week sent my opponent and his conspiracy theorists spiraling. I opened up social media and learned I had apparently dropped out of the race, had flown to a mental hospital in Ohio — that I had died.
False claims got millions of views online — and this is an example of what I call the ‘rage economy.’ Billionaires who own these platforms get rich, we all get angry, and nobody’s life gets any better. Conspiracy theories don’t put food on the table, put gas in the tank, or improve our communities.
I’m going to stay focused on the very real problems facing Texans.

Governor Shapiro is totally correct no matter if you stand for the death penalty or not. It’s outside the realm of human decency to publicly kill another human being no matter what they have been convicted of. It is a Roman (with the Cross) form of killing for all to see. Sick.

It really is crazy how much of a difference there is on this platform right now after Ukraine started bombing Russian data centers.
UKRAINE, if you were listening keep bombing the data centers.
