The huge Dem performance in the early vote is the biggest and most important story in American politics right now. https://twitter.com/SimonWDC/status/1589217947998093313

@trinsec Okay. Should I delete my posting? Still new at all this.
RT @gsiskind@twitter.com
I have no plans to leave Twitter, but am impressed by what I am seeing at Mastodon so have set up an account and will start posting there too. If you want to follow me, my username is gsiskind@mastodon.social.
@trinsec Really? He posted the same on his active Twitter acct. 🤔
We are currently experiencing some technical difficulties after firing half of our staff.
Please be patient, and consider useing another social media platform if you have troubles connecting to #Twitter.
Poem by Langston Hughes
Democracy will not come
Today, this year
Nor ever
Through compromise and fear.
I have as much right
As the other fellow has
To stand
On my two feet
And own the land.
I tire so of hearing people say,
Let things take their course.
Tomorrow is another day.
I do not need my freedom when I'm dead.
I cannot live on tomorrow's bread.
Freedom
Is a strong seed
Planted
In a great need.
I live here, too.
I want freedom
Just as you.
Sen. Rubio of FL introduced, & in a bit of a sneak attack, got approved via Senate unanimous consent, a bill that would make Daylight Saving Time - the thing we just fell back from - permanent year round for all states. However! The House has not passed it & almost certainly will not do so before this Congress ends on 1/2/2023. Which means FL’s law will remain inoperative unless Rubio wins, re-introduces it in the next Congress and can get past the commercial interests that like the status quo.+
Here's a part of the Espionage Act I noticed this morning bc what else does one do on a Sunday morning but read the Espionage Act.
It requires those convicted to give the documents in question back.
Not a surprise, but of note give that DOJ believes Trump has NOT given the docs back.
So far, while a new journalist-specific mastodon instance has been created and is beginning to take off, none of the Congressional journalists that we rely on has shown up there (as of yesterday when last we looked). So, we’ll periodically be telling you about things we’ve learned on The Other Site, but we’re going to avoid just sending users there on the assumption that you’re here because you don’t want to go there. Whew. Enough prologue.
🚨🚨🚨 What the heck, DOJ? Time is of the essence! *Chop, chop!* Listen to Glenn 👇. #indicttrump #notabovethelaw

Why do these Republican voters clap against their own best interests? I really don't understand.

@JoyceVance Good morning, Joyce. I'm a big Twitter fan of yours and your chickens.🐥 So delighted to see you here! 😀
@JoyceVance
Joyce,
So delighted to see you here in the new neighborhood.
I wrote a post about my migration. My top advice:
1. Switch to light mode. Makes a huge difference.
2. Select. the advanced web interface in settings. It's like Tweetdeck; much better view of everything.

@Ncfwritereditor Ugh, the Census. I did that long ago. And, it was a mess even back then. I'm concerned too but I'm keeping positive thoughts.🙏 These wacky extremists are in the minority. Plus, the younger voters are motivated. They're showing up and waiting in long lines to cast their ballots. That's encouraging.😀
If a kid said to his game opponent, I'll accept the outcome as long as I'm the winner, why would you even play with him? Don't vote for any election denier. They don't play fair!
