Nevada Is Seeing Extremely High Youth Turnout
Young people are coming out to vote in Nevada to such a large degree that it is slowing ballot casting down in the state.Jason Easley (PoliticusUSA LLC)
Es eso! 🤜🤛 Es posible, que Trump y su equipo eran los pendejos más grandes en todas las elecciones presidenciales con aquella desgraciada"sátira" y la excusa "cubana" más tonta.

“As Maine goes, so goes the nation.” So proud of my home state for a ballot question seeking to limit the kind of massive corporate spending that has plagued this election cycle, and all elections since Citizens United.

"Yes, the UN can suspend Israel over its Treatment of Palestinians"
"The South Africa precedent
"At the start of each annual general assembly session, the credentials committee reviews submissions from each member state before they are formally admitted.
"Usually, this is a formality, but on September 27 1974, the credentials of South Africa – which was then operating an apartheid system – were rejected."
So, too, could Israel's.

OMG, YES, Lauren,that show was just so great!
#JohnOliver of #LastWeekTonight has made such a compelling case to vote for #KamalaHarris today, even if you are completely aghast at the #BidenHartis admin foreign-policy failures in the #MiddleEast, including #Gaza and #Afghanistan. Brilliant 👏.
PS:
OMG--I had completely missed that appalling new Trump ad about #PuertoRicans with Cuban music.

Working with individuals who tried to overturn the 2020 election, Leo’s $B dark💰NET (has more cash on hand than all the top pol parties combined) is amplifying #election theories promulgated by #TFG/]Musk/allies. These efforts could help set the FND for distrust & upheaval on election night & in the days to come.
Groups: invested in using scare tactics to sow doubt in the election process -could help lay the groundwork for partisan actors to challenge the results-

Trump refusing to come out on stage for his Raleigh, NC rally because so many seats are empty.
Edit: he eventually came out on stage but apparently seems extremely exhausted and defeated.
A pro-life senior pastor of a Baptist megachurch in Texas came out in support of Vice President Kamala Harris in a new op-ed over the weekend. Wm. Dwight McKissic Sr., the senior pastor for a reported 3,000 congregants at Cornerstone Baptist Church in Arlington, condemned former President Donald Trump’s character and his conduct during the Jan. 6 Capitol riots.

Analysis: Israel’s ban on UNRWA is a "devastating attack on the very existence of the Palestinian people." The US alone can prevent it. ~Tamer Qarmout
"UNRWA was established by the UN after the 1948 Nakba to protect & assist Palestinians ethnically cleansed from their homes. It provides education, healthcare, social services & emergency relief to people living in refugee camps in the Palestinian territory, Jordan, Syria & Lebanon."

Better late than never, the NY Times doing real journalism and showing how the Biden Harris administration actually fixed the border. The parts that weren't advertised.
