The ignorant white supremacist conman got elected for a lot of reasons but they all boil down to: this is a country where that's possible

[Ed Overbeek @EdOverbeek]

America is a minority rule country. Thinking of it that way makes a lot of things click into place. https://t.co/ttDkBWkugk

Men, this goes for us too. Unless you’re the kind of insecure dipshit that thinks women don’t have just as much a right to vote as you do.

[Rachel Murphy Azzara @RachelAzzara]

Women, always remember that the Republican response to women turning out to vote for their rights was to say women shouldn’t vote against their husband or “repeal the 19th”. This is who they are. If you haven’t voted yet, Go Vote Today.

We gave it our all, but it was never just about this election. This is one step in a long march toward justice + freedom. If we keep funding year-round local organizing, we will go farther, faster, toward the world we want to see. Keep marching. https://t.co/GG9GE6NvJV

We need volunteers to TEXT BANK Nov 1-2 to help #GOTV for CURTIS HERTEL (MI-07) and ELISSA SLOTKIN (MI-SEN). #Michigan is a critical swing state and we need to get out every vote possible to protect these vulnerable seats. Join us! DemsWork4USA

BREAKING: 150 billionaire families have now poured a record-breaking $1.9 BILLION into the 2024 election.

That's $700 million more than 600+ billionaires spent on the 2020 election.

Billionaires shouldn't get to buy our elections.

End Citizens United. Tax billionaires.

We can’t talk about racial justice without naming the way patriarchy is foundational to white supremacy, and the ways “powerful qualities” of the patriarchy—control, domination, gatekeeping, entitlement, resource control—are the foundations of this country.

[Brian Beutler @brianbeutler]

They put their own, historic exclusive from retired marine general John Kelly—Trump’s own chief of staff calling him a fascist and danger to America—on A12.

[Ed Overbeek @EdOverbeek]

The trolls are out in force defending this, but I haven’t seen any of them call it “the weave”. Real missed opportunity.

[Sharon Yang @sharonjqyang]

Omg this moment from Trump. YIKES.

Victim of facial mauling still plans to vote for the Leopards Eating People’s Faces Party

[Lexi Churchill @LChurchilll]

1/ Lifelong Republican Mary Howard-Elley never thought her party's unfounded claims about noncitizen voting referred to people like her.

So the retired federal employee with the "whitest name you could have" was shocked when her citizenship and right to vote was questioned.

[Josh Marshall @joshtpm]

Some people debate whether polls or betting markets are more accurate predictors of election outcomes. Neither. The most effective barometer is whether or not Trump is currently going berserk lying about voter fraud.

[Ed Overbeek @EdOverbeek]

Doing racism in broad daylight and then acting innocent and outraged is peak Trumpism

[Ed Overbeek @EdOverbeek]

A lot of white men would rather burn democracy to the ground than have to share it, and a lot of obscenely rich white men see that as a business opportunity.

[Ian Sams @IanSams]

But I was told the joy was gone

[Thomas Zimmer @tzimmer_history]

Crucial piece by @Mike_Podhorzer on how polls are obscuring the extremism of Trump’s plans.

A related thought: Since the mainstream discourse stipulates that extremism must be “fringe” in America, anything that has broad support is reflexively sanitized as *not* extremism.

[Thomas Zimmer @tzimmer_history]

White innocence is achieved not by justifying and apologizing widespread support for political extremism - but by decreeing that whatever a significant portion of “regular folks” are supporting categorically cannot be extremism in the first place.
