For millions of Americans, today will bring the chance to be heard. If there's an election where you live, then you get to send a message on the policies and leadership you believe in - and begin changing the trajectory of this country.

All the conservatives blasting Tucker Carlson for whitewashing antisemitism should probably ask the administration why it’s still prosecuting journalist @bubbaprog.xyz for exposing Tucker Carlson whitewashing antisemitism.

NEW: The NAACP sued Virginia election officials, alleging they're unlawfully rejecting college students’ voter registration applications and same-day registration provisional ballots for missing optional information such as dorm name or room number.

Norway’s sovereign wealth fund announced it would vote against a $1 trillion pay package for CEO Elon Musk.

He wants to kill Obamacare, but has no other plan. He is not satisfied with his deportation operation because his ICE agents are not abusive enough. He plans to continue murdering people in the Caribbean Sea because the law and these humans are of no concern to him. All this thanks to John Roberts.

♦️ Dick Cheney dies. ♦️ Americans vote in the most important elections until the midterms. ♦️ The shutdown reaches its 35th day, sharing the record for the longest ever. Keep up with US politics

Hold the line. You know who isn’t tired of hurting Americans? Trump.

For all the women voting today…

Former White House Chief of Staff, Secretary of Defense and V.P., Dick Cheney has died. He was 84. After years of being a GOP powerhouse, 2-months before last year's US presidential election, Dick Cheney staged a major intervention: announcing that he would vote for the Democrats' Kamala Harris.

Vote Yes on 50!

Holder: The Supreme Court is a broken institution. And it’s something that has to be part of the national conversation in ’26 and in ’28. If there is a Democratic trifecta in 2028—and I think the possibility of that is pretty good—Supreme Court reform has to be on the table.

Free and fair elections are good for business. Having a stable rule of law is important to the economy. Not having people afraid to go to work because they might be beaten up or disappeared is essential to a productive workforce. Democracy is essential for a strong economy.

Breaking! Republican Party in talks to change animal symbol from elephant to ostrich to better demonstrate how they operate in DC.

COLLINS: Should the president know who he's pardoning? MARKWAYNE MULLIN: I don't know anything about this one. That's the first time I've seen that.

NEW:

Hey, what's the big deal, the president's sons got a pardon for their business partner who has made them billionaires?

“Did I pardon a billionaire who helped my allies? Sure. Do I know him? Nope.” Presidential integrity at its finest.

CNN put together a montage of Trump playing dumb about the pardon of the Binance founder twice in about a week

SNAP? "I dunno." ICE? "I dunno." Healthcare? "I dunno." Epstein? "I dunno." Shutdown? "I dunno." Tariffs? "I dunno." Jobs? "I dunno." Venezuela? "I dunno." Russia? "I dunno." Ballroom? "I dunno." Trump's health? "I dunno." Swearing in Adelita Grijalva? "I dunno." Democrats? "THE REAL ENEMY."

A truly extraordinary document. Judge Rodriguez throws out the indictment because "the Government’s conduct is so shocking to the universal sense of justice that it should be deprived of the opportunity to prosecute the Defendant." Hard to count all the different ways ICE lied throughout this case.

Brett Kavanaugh's behavior during today's second oral arguments has been incredibly obnoxious and rude. He is so eager to kill a service member's lawsuit against a negligent government contractor that he keeps interrupting other justices, raising his voice, and getting emotional. Weird and erratic.

Newsom: Prop 50 is not about drawing lines on a map. It is about holding the line to what makes us who we are.

The courts have ordered the administration to use its contingency fund for SNAP—and have made clear it can use its transfer authorities to fully fund SNAP. It is not enough to do the bare minimum—they should do everything they can to ensure Americans put food on the table.

Cuomo endorsements are rolling in.

This will increase Mamdani's margin of victory by double digits. #ETTD

The president of the United States thinks asylum-seekers come from mental asylums. He says it in almost every interview where the topic of migration comes up. How is this not 25th Amendment territory? How is he not an embarrassment to this entire country?

Grijalva: I do think that Speaker Johnson misplayed his hand. There are people all over this nation who were out there with signs that said, “Swear her in.” They wouldn’t have even known about me otherwise. Thank you for highlighting how corrupt the system you’re protecting really is.

Got tired of reading the news and getting mad. Feeding America backs 200+ food banks around the country and I've seeded with $500 for now. I'll match up to another $500 myself. Pass the hat, RTs graciously appreciated, etc.

One of America’s most affordable paths to homeownership is slipping away. Rents are rapidly rising at trailer parks, or mobile home parks, due to large-scale buyouts by private equity firms. A poverty law attorney explains: buff.ly/QHpnb1G

Fans of the MAGA movement melted down on Monday over what they described as a "passive-aggressive" interview of President Donald Trump on CBS News' "60 Minutes" over the weekend, according to a new report.

“I love being a fascist!!!!” he squealed.

They’re counting on you to sit this one out. Don’t give them what they want. Get loud with your ballot. Drop it off today or hit the polls tomorrow ASAP. #CAVoteYesProp50

This is an excellent idea!!!

NEW: The Republican chairman of the House’s election oversight committee revealed plans to introduce legislation that would ban states from counting mail-in ballots that were sent by Election Day but arrive after.
