The early voting blog is updated! As @G_BAILOR has found -- I steal his research with credit -- Dems looking strong in their 3 CDs while they still have an uphill climb in CD2. If turnout patterns don't change, Ds could have an Assembly supermajority. thenevadaindependent.com/article/the-ea…

Leaked WhatsApps between ex-EU commissioner Reynders and senior Belgian spy reveal attempts to bury allegations of his possible Russia ties – EUobserver euobserver.com/243287/exclusi…

The GRU hacked into Jared Kushner's iPhone. Dutch military intelligence (MIVD) then recruited a GRU spy who gave them access to the hacked phone. What MIVD discovered was that Kushner had access to two bank accounts --one Azerbaijani, the other Israeli --where Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Emirati ruler Mohammed bin Zayed deposited money. It sounds like a slightly far-fetched episode of "Slow Horses," but it's real. And it proves just how eye-poppingly corrupt this administration was and continues to be as its "special envoy" decides the fate of tens of millions in Europe in the Middle East. Simply incredible reporting by Matthew Cole, drawn from his new book on Kushner. vanityfair.com/story/jared-ku…

As someone who publicly came out against Trump 8yrs ago, and ended my career as a Republican by doing so, and have endured hate & threats from the MAGA base these past 8yrs, I have zero sympathy for, and utter disdain for, all 3 of these groups of cowardly former Republican colleagues of mine.👇

BREAKING: A GOP senator asked for anonymity to reveal that "everyone in Congress knows Trump's second term is a disaster," but 1/3 of Republicans are grifting his supporters, 1/3 are afraid of Trump ending their careers, and 1/3 are afraid his cult is a danger to their families.

NEW: ICE is trying to deport a mother of 4 while her husband is at Fort Benning in Army basic training. When she went to pick up the family's military IDs, Navy personnel turned her over to ICE. She's been in the US since age six. Story with @nancyayoussef theatlantic.com/politics/2026/…

If Putin stops fighting, the war ends. If Zelensky stops fighting then his country will be occupied, leaders murdered, language banned, businesses stolen, children kidnapped. That's what happens in Russian-occupied Ukraine.

This extraordinary, unjustifiable and grotesque pressure on Ukraine occurs after Russia, not Ukraine, rejected Trump's energy cease-fire and after Russia rejected Ukraine's cease-fire proposal to hold new elections. The U.S. isn't just "unreliable," it's becoming unhinged.

Another way to think about Trump announcement today: If he increased US diesel imports from Canada by 4%, he would gain as much fuel as from this Russia deal. But the Canadians are global super-villains, so who wants to buy from them when you could enrich Putin instead?

Donald Trump again spitting on the graves of every dead Ukrainian. He’s again spitting on the graves of every American service member killed in his war against Iran. He’s making crystal clear again that he is not on the side of the free world. Tell me again that he’s not a Russian asset. Go ahead.

Put this ish on blast! No matter how much Republicans BS and bully Jack Smith in this hearing they can't escape this truth and their complicity in perpetuating a lie.

Incredible: another Ukrainian famine is unfolding, this time in Russian-occupied Oleshky. The remaining inhabitants of what used to be a thriving small city, now down to about 6000 people, are blockaded by Russian forces and cut off from food and water. bbc.com/news/articles/…

While Western lawmakers shook hands with Islamic Republic officials at the UN and Pezeshkian claimed his regime doesn’t kill its own people, Mahboubeh Shabani has been sentenced to death for using her motorcycle to take injured protesters to the hospital in the January uprising.

Reminder to those who apparently don't know: the Kennedy Center was financially robust, with many private donors, before this administration undermined it, chased out the National Symphony, Washington Opera and others. Trump has forced it into bankruptcy out of sheer vanity.

BREAKING: Donald Trump made nearly 29,000 securities trades in 17 months, more than every member of Congress combined, per Bloomberg. The stock-purchasing ban he’s pushing would also leave him exempt.

Since 2025, Americans in and close to the administration have worked to weaken and break up Canada; to use money to influence the loyalties of Greenlanders; to shape elections in Germany, Poland, Argentina, Brazil. No longer seeing themselves as the leaders of the democratic world, the new American elite are looking instead to enrich themselves, using the federal government. Read more here: theatlantic.com/magazine/2026/…

Bloomberg News: “President Donald Trump has traded more securities than every member of Congress combined since he returned to office — even as he seeks to pass a stock-purchasing ban for lawmakers that would exclude him from any restrictions.” bloomberg.com/graphics/2026-…

The President of the United States is at war with you. He’s trying to disenfranchise you, he’s trying to take away your vote, he’s trying to steal the midterms. You need to accept this horrible truth, and you need to fight back/retaliate against him. So for starters, when voting this year: 1. Use drop boxes. 2. Vote early in person. 3. If voting by mail, put your ballot in the mail at least 2 wks before Election Day. 4. Share these instructions with everyone you know. He’s at war with us. We must be at war with him. And defeat him.

Evil. This is just evil, plain and simple.👇
