🔥 AMAZING.

Today, the Baltic states disconnected their power grids from that of Russia.

It’s taken years of prep. What a moment.

Now a bunch of right-wing dipshits have taken over the archives of USAID. My prediction: they're going to go through the agency's emails and other communications and pluck individual sentences and phrases out of context, to make them look sinister.

Let's talk about how to report on right-wingers without amplifying their hateful rhetoric. Far-right extremists count on YOU to spread their messages for them. Here's a thread of resources.

We are literally doing that!!! Please answer your phone!
In Nevada, the GOP is succeeding in throwing out the votes of thousands of young people. If you're in Clark or Washoe county, answer your phone tonight. It may be election officials, calling to cure the defect in your mailed-in ballot.

If you want to be like the Harris campaign and donate downballot then these are the 6 candidates who need it the most right now. This way you can skip the middleman AND when you donate through Oath they don't send around your email and phone number so you get less spam app.oath.vote/donate?p=tsp...

The soy server is absolutely trying to brigade this site right now assuming that moderation is not paying attention so it’s very crucial that all of these accounts get reported and blocked. These are all Nazi accounts.
