Grok refuted this lie
Flávio Bolsonaro: 56.78% Lula da Silva: 43.22% Without extending voting until 7 PM. @grok, confirm this.

Not a good election day for autocrats. Huge vote for change in Serbia, and Lula has come back from a first round deficit to be poised to win the Brazil presidential runoff. Up next: Israel elections on Tuesday.

A stunning defeat for a Trump-aligned right-wing leader in Europe. Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić, whose government cultivated close ties with Donald Trump and his family, has conceded defeat to a student-led opposition movement in a historic parliamentary election. Trump's son Donald Trump Jr. personally met with Vučić, while Jared Kushner pursued a major luxury real estate project with his government. Now, after nearly two years of massive student-led protests against corruption and authoritarianism, Vučić's ruling party has been defeated at the ballot box. The student-backed movement is projected to win a parliamentary majority, ending more than a decade of dominance by Vučić's party.

Experts think that team that wasted 2 outs with sacrifice bunts that resulted in 0 runs earlier should have done it again in 9th inning.
.@JakePeavy_22 and Brian Kenny offer their initial thoughts on the 9th inning decision-making in Game 2. 📺 #MLBTonight coming up on MLB Network

The people complaining about Obama’s Cheesecake Factory line sound like performative humorless scolds, maybe this is Woke 2.0.
This line is getting praise on X, but it’s actually elitist garbage written by a speechwriter who clearly hasn’t spent much time in a Cheesecake Factory, which has none of the gaudy Trump aesthetic, and just feels good to say because it represents flyover MAGA “night out.”

Trump swaggered into Georgia right before the midterms, breathlessly announcing a huge new Audi factory, a massive win for the state he claimed. Here's the receipt: Audi had absolutely no such announcement, no plans to build a plant in Georgia, and no knowledge of this supposed commitment. This wasn't just campaign exaggeration; it was a bald-faced fabrication, invented out of thin air just days before an election, banking on voters not checking if a major international corporation actually agreed to a multi-billion dollar investment during a political rally. It perfectly illustrates how quickly reality gets benched for a headline grab, promising prosperity that only exists in a speech bubble, all while the people who supposedly value "truth" never question the actual facts. thehill.com/homenews/state-w…

I'm gonna take a stab: When you're afraid to mention your party's signature economic policy in campaign ads, that might be a sign that the policy is unpopular because it didn't work as promised.
Just such a fun chart here from @greg_ip. If only we could tease out some meaning. Ah, well, nevertheless. 🤣

Good to know that Henry Olsen has finally decided that Trump might be problematic.
Very problematic if the President actually believes his job approval is at 60 percent.

Trump shakes down consultants
After @JamesBlairUSA & @ChrisLaCivita donated $$$ they were paid to advise the pro-Russian government of Republika Srpska to the Trump presidential library, Trump said he is no longer concerned about whether their work represented a conflict of interest. nytimes.com/2026/10/23/us/po…

The strangest thing about Trump's attempt to interfere in the Alaskan election is how stupid the rationale is. It's a rank choice election; anyone confused about which Dan Sullivan is which can just rank both of him; the confusion, to the extent it exists, should not cost the incumbent a single solitary vote.

It’s not a “conspiracy theory” when the administration’s ATTEMPT to upend the election via the USPS is blocked by the courts. scotusblog.com/2026/09/supre…
What's been memory-holed is the Democrats' conspiracy theory that Trump was stealing the election via the Postal Service.

When first reported, 2025’s jobs reports added up to 1.2 million new jobs. After revisions, the economy added just 116,000 — 90% less.

Trump: "I alone could secure a prisoner release from Russia without giving anything in return" Trump literally ten minutes later: "Now you idiots know why I had to waive sanctions on Russia, no shot I got that prisoner release otherwise"
