Get ready for the unfolding of a Russian propaganda operation, carried out with the aid of the White House, in the battered town of Oleshky. From @ZarinaZabrisky, who has been reporting from Kherson, just across the river, since 2023 theatlantic.com/internationa…

Read this article and the investigative report from House Judiciary Committee Democrats. @AGToddBlanche is a monster. November is coming.

In REJECTING the Trump DOJ's request to sideline 20,000 California ballots, Judge David O. Carter calls it out as part of "a broad, ongoing pattern of attempted election interference by federal officials." Doc buff.ly/hSDF7SA

Dear American people: If any of you are called to serve as jurors or grand jurors in a federal case, remember that @AGToddBlanche brags that he has no independence from trump. When you vote, remember that the trump DOJ is enforcing the rule of trump instead of the rule of law.
It was once extremely rare for grand jurors to rebuff prosecutors and turn down a request for an indictment, given that the Justice Department has traditionally sought criminal charges only in cases it expects to win. But prosecutors have become increasingly convinced they will be unable to bring any indictment that is seen as political while Trump is in office. nytimes.com/2026/10/27/us/po…

"If the Executive can discount votes and threaten an ongoing election due to unproven allegations, then our democracy is in danger." — Judge David O. Carter, the first federal judge to observe that Trump likely committed crimes in his assault on the 2020 election. buff.ly/hSDF7SA

Completely agree and have thought the same. I suspect Putin/Moscow is giving these instructions, too. They might also fear they’re running out of time. Hence my earlier comment about their crime spree intensifying, too.

The circular firing squad on who ordered the Starshield slowdown shouldn’t obscure that it was one of a slew of measures taken almost simultaneously. It was in a ‘menu’ of actions drawn up in advance and held in readiness. The decision to launch them *all* had to come from WH.

Trump Witkoff and Kushner seem in a hurry to cash in in Russia while Russia escalating ballistic missile and drone attacks on Kyiv every night and rejecting any ceasefire. Lindsey Graham would be rolling his grave

In Israel, nearly all the votes have been counted in Tuesday’s election. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his allies emerged as the largest bloc, but lost seats and fell short of the majority needed to form a new government. The results leave Israel facing the prospect of political gridlock. @nickschifrin has more.

Interesting post here that puts things into perspective. All of these patches in the image below are the agencies that assisted in a single relatively small fire. The mutual aid, master mutual aid and ICS system in CA is second to none.
It's National First Responders Day! 🚒 During the Norte Fire, we saw the impact of mutual aid as agencies from across California came together to help protect our communities and residents.
