One week until Election Day. America deserves better than the pedophile protection party.

Knock doors. Make calls. Get your friends to vote.

Let’s elect Democrats up and down the ballot and finally make Trump release the Epstein files.

Everyone needs to see Randi Weingarten’s powerful and deeply personal endorsement of Abdul El-Sayed.

At a time when fear and division are being weaponized, her message of unity, equality, and democracy deserves to be heard.

Please watch and share. ❤️

Q: Why shouldn't Alaskans find it insulting that the administration is suggesting they can't read the word 'incumbent' on their ballot and know to vote for Sen. Sullivan?

it is odd in retrospect how easy it was for the “but trump ended his friendship with epstein” narrative to be accepted as fact
Evidence "shows that Trump lied about kicking Epstein out of his Mar-a-Lago club," according to a new report from the House Judiciary Dem staff.

The report also reveals for the first time Beatrice Keul's account of allegedly having been raped by Trump.

Brexit has not been “reopened because of Andy Burnham”, but because:
- it’s turned out to be a costly mistake
- geopolitics shows we can’t rely on the US, but need to work with our neighbours with whom we share common interests
- the public has turned against it

Wow! I was not expecting that.
Alaska authorities strongly oppose the Trump DOJ’s attempted “interference” in the election.

This is significant because there were concerns the state—which sought to DQ the second Sullivan—would take the same side.

But it didn’t. Quite the contrary. buff.ly/EJHtDpX

I honestly was not sure if this was a new or recycled allegation, which says a lot about our President.
