If Twitter goes out of business, or if I decide there’s only so much fascism I’m gonna tolerate in 2023 and I leave, you can find me on IG at rkgoblue1. I’d be privileged to hear from you!

@BJStoner2 How apropos. I was shocked when I saw that movie ending so many years ago. I never imagined I would live it!

@sarahdavisagain You’re awesome!

Whatever the final outcome, the fact that Trump—a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, pathological liar, virulent bigot and utterly reckless manager who kowtows to Putin and despises democracy— is this close to regaining the White House is deeply disturbing.

Friends, we've been through this before in both 2016 and 2020. It is early, votes still need to be counted, as we saw in 2020 our vote comes in late, and Harris has multiple paths to 270. Lots of Dem vote out everywhere. It's hard but we need to be patient.

The hard part about election night is it’s a reminder that half of America hates America

[David Shuster @DavidShuster]

Big picture: Given the counties reporting so far in WI, MI, PA, and AZ...and the counties (mostly urban areas/suburbs) lagging/still to report, Harris is in good shape to win those four swing states and finish with 281 EV. Losing GA + NC would be irrelevant. #election2024

@Meagan_Thompson Pretty sure a lot of people won’t actually be working tomorrow morning!

Trump is winning in all the states where marrying your sister is okay.

If you choose to fall for exit polls, that's your choice.

If you choose to fall for red mirages, that's your choice.

But don't bring that kind of doomsday hysteria into my replies. It's inappropriate. Thank you.

BREAKING: Mainstream media sat on explosive tapes for weeks, burying the story until it finally saw the light of day at 11 PM on October 31.

I was one of the first to break the news, and within 24 hours, The Guardian picked it up.

Now, Jimmy Kimmel is out here questioning the media's deafening silence.

These tapes capture Epstein discussing his "friendship" with Trump for 100 hours—yep, 100 hours of damning revelations about a man Epstein called morally bankrupt.

Kimmel’s shock is justified; the American media went all in on manufactured scandals for years but went quiet on this.

When it’s Trump, suddenly legacy outlets have “standards,” like the truth here isn’t essential.

Kimmel’s point isn’t just another late-night punchline; it’s an indictment of a media complex that selectively buries real stories and expects us to forget them.

And his message is clear: this silence isn’t just oversight—it’s complicity. It’s up to the public to remember and act, to push back on the media's selective memory, and to keep these revelations alive.

If they won’t bring accountability, we sure as hell will.

Don't be alarmed by Trump taking an early lead in the electoral vote count. We knew Kentucky, West Virginia, and other deep red states would be the first to be called. Hang in there. And if you're still in line to vote, stay there.

BREAKING - 5-point shift to Harris in suburban Atlanta's Fayette County

With 80% in, he's only up by 2. He won it by 7 in 2020.

If Trump loses ground in these suburban/exurban counties around major metros, he will lose Georgia, multiple other states, and the election.

[Tristan Snell @TristanSnell]

Do NOT panic during this first part of the evening.

Rural counties report first because they have fewer votes to count -- tends to result in Republicans coming out to early leads.

Democratic count tends to come in later in the evening.

Keep Kamala and carry on a la.

[Donald Trump’s Neck Vagina @torontobaddy]

Prophetic. He died today.

BREAKING: RNC FAILS to toss Georgia ballots counted legally over the weekend

RNC tried "to tip the scales ... by discriminating against citizens less likely to vote for their candidate… does not withstand even the most basic level of statutory review and reading comprehension"

[Simon Rosenberg @SimonWDC]

Heading into Election night, Trump:
- is not leading in the battleground early vote
- is not leading in the polls or w/most forecasters
- did not raise more money, have more volunteers, or have anywhere as big crowds as Harris

There is no data right now suggesting he's winning

[Tristan Snell @TristanSnell]

I was just in Philadelphia. There is no "heavy law enforcement." Just long lines to vote.

Trump is LYING - again. Don't let him intimidate you.

Remember, if he's LYING - it means he's LOSING.

[Tristan Snell @TristanSnell]

Don't believe mainstream media's take on this race; they want it to be a "toss up" so you'll watch/click

- Inflation back to normal
- Economy best in over 50 years
- Harris has positive favorables; Trump has negative

All the key fundamentals point to a Harris win

Cory Booker was just asked: "IF Kamala Harris goes on to win this election, and you have to point to one hero of the story, who or what would that be?"
Booker said: "The patriotism of Joe Biden."
