Medgar Evers was killed in his driveway because he refused to accept a Mississippi where some were denied the right to vote.
He stood with thousands who marched, organized and sacrificed so future generations could have a voice. We owe it to them not to take that right for nor their legacy. Vote.

NOVEMBER SURPRISE.
Former Miss Teen USA, Dr. Larissa Portnoff, just came out with disgusting, disturbing allegations against Donald Trump.
Portnoff is a highly respected New York–based clinical psychologist and clinical director of New York Psychology Practice, She earned her Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Columbia University.
Every republican running tomorrow needs to get on record as to whether they support Donald Trump’s attacks on this poor woman. x.com/smalls2672/sta…

You know things are bad when Ukrainian families from Kyiv are begging the citizens of the United States to vote Blue in the Midterms to save their lives because they know that Trump is a Dictator that stands with Russia and cares nothing about them. They say this isn’t who most of us agree with them.

Political power, or the desire for it, does strange things to people. Sad, pathetic example of someone craving attention more than integrity. This 👇🏼 was 90 days ago.

The guy who compared a Trump rally to Jonestown on live Fox News was invited by the Trump campaign. They called his work phone on Monday and asked him to come.
His name is Tom Hoyle. He's 57 and runs a small custom printing shop in Charlotte called MadPark Designs with his business partner. He's hated Trump since 1989, back when he was a sophomore in college. And he really, really doesn't like getting sales calls on the shop line, from anybody.
So when the rally people called, he said yes. He even signed up with his real name and contact info, because he wanted it on the record that they invited him.
Then he had to get through the door. A private security guy asked him straight up if he was a Trump supporter. Tom told him he supports the Constitution, then started talking about his shirt, which was for an old death metal band called Death. He kept going about the history of Florida death metal until the guard gave up and let him in.
His plan going in was honestly pretty juvenile. He and a buddy he grew up with figured he'd wait a few minutes into the speech and yell something filthy.
Then a Fox News reporter, Lucas Tomlinson, found him standing off by himself and asked if he could interview him live. Tom thinks a white guy with a big beard and a ball cap was pretty much exactly what they were looking for.
He told himself he wasn't going to cuss on national TV, so he made it up on the spot. He says the first line and then just waits. The reporter goes "Wait, the Jonestown Massacre?" and that's when he finishes it.
He told The Handbasket he picked that up from Billy Crystal, who said on Letterman back in the '80s that you always let the other guy set up your punchline. Tomlinson set it up for him perfectly.
A few minutes later some men who said they were Secret Service pulled him aside. He asked if this was about the concession stand, because it closed early and he was starving. They didn't love that and walked him out. On his way out he passed the guard from the front door and told him, hey man, you didn't vet me too well.
Think about how many people had a shot at stopping this. The campaign's call list found him. The signup form had his name. A guard questioned him to his face. A Fox crew put him on live TV. Every one of them took one look at the beard and the hat and filled in the rest.
That's how almost all of this screening works. Asking somebody what they actually believe takes time, and looking at them takes a second, so everybody just looks.
The one check that actually caught him came after he'd already said it on national TV.

Fox: Why are you here this morning?
Trump rally attendee: Well, in the late 70s, I was a little too young to go to South America for the Jonestown Massacre. But this is as close as I'll ever get, so that's why I'm here. There's nothing like seeing a cult right up front.

Federal agents going door to door checking on whether people intended to vote and for credentials is the stuff of democratic nightmare. Normally, DOJ would have stopped this cold because in modern times, DOJ was committed to combating voter intimidation, not condoning it. But now the call is coming from inside the house. The Rule of Law Project exists to function as DOJ did in ordinary times.
Sending armed ICE agents door to door to question voters days before an election is intimidation.
We filed an amicus brief urging the Ninth Circuit to keep DHS’s “Unlawful Voter Initiative” blocked. Law enforcement must protect the right to vote. justiceconnection.substack.com/p/federal-law-…

Putin is not a "humanitarian."
Putin is a killer.
Trump's pivot to help him and abandon Ukrainians is one of the worst U.S. policy decisions ever.
It needs to be reversed.

🚨NON-FEARMONGERING RED ALERT: This is a military spouse. We don't typically fall for these. I believe her. This is an extremely ominous message with some breath stealing predictions.
"It's going to get worse. A whole lot worse and the young people will pay for it."

Everyone must get out and vote. Get these Republicans out of Congress or, as Miles Taylor lays out here, we will have total dictatorship. Read this if you’re skeptical.
