As someone who grew up in a home with domestic abuse, not only would I not have flown on his plane if I had any inkling of what he was doing—I would have turned him in myself and led the call for justice for his crimes, not sweetheart deals.

BREAKING: New data from CNN shows women are significantly outvoting men in critical swing states. Women are going to end Donald Trump’s political career. Let’s go.

[Arnold Schwarzenegger @Schwarzenegger]

I don’t really do endorsements. I’m not shy about sharing my views, but I hate politics and don’t trust most politicians.

I also understand that people want to hear from me because I am not just a celebrity, I am a former Republican Governor.

My time as Governor taught me to love policy and ignore politics. I’m proud of the work I did to help clean up our air, create jobs, balance the budget, make the biggest infrastructure investment in state history, and take power from the politicians and give it back to the people when it comes to our redistricting process and our primaries in California.

That’s policy. It requires working with the other side, not insulting them to win your next election, and I know it isn’t sexy to most people, but I love it when I can help make people’s lives better with policies, like I still do through my institute at USC, where we fight for clean air and stripping the power from the politicians who rig the system against the people.

Let me be honest with you: I don’t like either party right now. My Republicans have forgotten the beauty of the free market, driven up deficits, and rejected election results. Democrats aren’t any better at dealing with deficits, and I worry about their local policies hurting our cities with increased crime.

It is probably not a surprise that I hate politics more than ever, which, if you are a normal person who isn’t addicted to this crap, you probably understand.

I want to tune out.

But I can’t. Because rejecting the results of an election is as un-American as it gets. To someone like me who talks to people all over the world and still knows America is the shining city on a hill, calling America is a trash can for the world is so unpatriotic, it makes me furious.

And I will always be an American before I am a Republican.

That’s why, this week, I am voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.

I’m sharing it with all of you because I think there are a lot of you who feel like I do. You don’t recognize our country. And you are right to be furious.

For decades, we’ve talked about the national debt. For decades, we’ve talked about comprehensive immigration reform that secures the border while fixing our broken immigration system. And Washington does nothing.

The problems just keep rolling, and we all keep getting angrier, because the only people that benefit from problems aren’t you, the people. The only people that benefit from this crap are the politicians who prefer having talking points to win elections to the public service that will make Americans’ lives better.

It is a just game to them. But it is life for my fellow Americans. We should be pissed!

But a candidate who won’t respect your vote unless it is for him, a candidate who will send his followers to storm the Capitol while he watches with a Diet Coke, a candidate who has shown no ability to work to pass any policy besides a tax cut that helped his donors and other rich people like me but helped no one else else, a candidate who thinks Americans who disagree with him are the bigger enemies than China, Russia, or North Korea - that won’t solve our problems.

It will just be four more years of bullshit with no results that makes us angrier and angrier, more divided, and more hateful.

We need to close the door on this chapter of American history, and I know that former President Trump won’t do that. He will divide, he will insult, he will find new ways to be more un-American than he already has been, and we, the people, will get nothing but more anger.

That’s enough reason for me to share my vote with all of you. I want to move forward as a country, and even though I have plenty of disagreements with their platform, I think the only way to do that is with Harris and Walz.

Vote this week. Turn the page and put this junk behind us.

And even if you disagree with me, vote, because that’s what we do as Americans. https://t.co/eHFZ723I4H

Is there anything I can say to get you to chip in $3?

What if I told you Ted Cruz won by just 2.6% in 2018? Or that CNN says he's the most vulnerable GOP Senator in the country?

How about this: We're officially TIED in the polls. Would you give just $3 to help me pull ahead?

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

Donald Trump will be mad if you retweet this video that's going viral right now following Kamala Harris's decision to go on Fox News to be interviewed by Bret Baier.

[Sir William Browder KCMG @Billbrowder]

This is a terrifying moment. If Trump wins the election, he will cut off military aid to Ukraine. Unfortunately Ukraine is totally dependent on the US to hold Putin at bay. If Putin wins in Ukraine, he will then move on to the Baltics who are our NATO allies. Then Trump will have to decide whether to honor our treaty obligations. Based on his previous disdain for NATO, that’s highly uncertain. If NATO is no more, we should brace ourselves for a world of hurt.

"English universities offer to curb foreign students if they can raise tuition fees"

Great. So everyone is harmed. Fewer foreigners get to come to Britain, and Brits pay more for their education. A proper lose-lose.

And all to placate the xenophobes. https://t.co/AmA6JQASAV

🌹🌹🌹🌹KINDNESS🌹🌹🌹🌹

I was pulled over Wednesday morning
by a Tennessee state trooper.

As he approached my car he noticed the two little boys in the back seat and immediately asked, "Why aren’t they in car seats?"

I explained that they were my foster sons, whom I had just taken in
the night before. When I received them, they only had the clothes they were wearing—no car seats, no toys, no coats, nothing.
I showed him the paperwork to confirm their status.

The trooper was incredibly understanding and kind to both me and the boys. He asked for my phone number, which I provided.

Later that day, his wife called to ask more about the boys and their needs.
To my surprise, this morning, Officer Tidwell met me in Waverly, and he and his wife had gone out of their way to buy gifts for all three of the boys—not just the two
in the car, but also their older brother.
I can't express how grateful I am for the compassion Officer Tidwell
and his wife have shown. I never asked for anything, yet they
took it upon themselves to help out of the kindness of their hearts.
This experience showed these boys that there are truly good people in the world, and it left
a positive impression on them about police officers.

The boys have been excitedly telling everyone, "Cops are nice!"
In a world where we often hear
so much negativity, I wanted
to share this heartwarming story.

Officer Tidwell has made a lasting impact on these children's lives, and I am beyond thankful for his kindness.

“Water company plans £89m shareholder payout despite sewage conviction.”

And that boys & girls is how it works

We can spend £91.6m fixing the sewage works or dump that sh*t into the nearest river, pay a £2.6m fine and give the rest to our shareholders.
