LOL the chodes here who think there will be some glorious revolution to restore democracy post Trump. It will be GONE. Read a fucking history book. I have lived in and worked in authoritarian countries. You have absolutely zero fucking clue how to survive. You have no idea.

Look I never play this card but I studied German politics and the rise of fascism and this IS THAT. We have arrived at the end game. Not hyperbole or exaggeration this is THE EXACT LANGUAGE. Anyone who has studied this recognizes it like a meteorologist seeing a gathering hurricane

Oil companies have known for **decades** that fossil fuels would cause stronger, deadlier storms—and we have the receipts. We compiled internal documents dating back to 1979:

North America earlier this evening. Milton spinning in the Gulf. Apparently the wispy stuff further north is wildfire smoke.

Satellite image showing the southern and central part of the US. Evening of Oct 8th. The western part is in sunlight, but the Midwest ad east coast are in darkness, with city lights showing. Hurricane Milton is in the Gulf of Mexico. There is some wispy wildfire smoke over the central US.

If you live in one of these 10 states (AZ, TX AR, MS, FL, GA, TN, KY, IN, OH), today is THE LAST DAY you can register to vote. Even if you think you're registered already, double check to see if your registration is still active. Please do this, it only takes a few minutes. Pass it on.

If I were a journalist I would look into how desantis and the Florida legislature is using their state emergency management agency to coordinate sending migrants to other states given the republican criticism of congress directing FEMA to assist with migrant sheltering.
