Just saw my first Trump “caravan” in New York - a grand total of 3 trucks, 2 of which had out of state license plates. Nope. Get your Klan shit out of our state!

Yeah Trump warned us about caravans in 2018. They’re finally here. Caravans of racist trash.

Vote them all TF out!

No, the race is not tightening: it continues to be stable, Biden is closing strong. Unlike 2016, when half the country did not vote, we are having a record turnout. No, they are not going to steal the election. Breathe, and get out the vote. We are headed for a big sweep on Tues.

If being anxious and nervous is a motivation for you, then by all means, stick with it. But if it stops you in your tracks and keeps you from being effective in helping get out the vote, then let it go. This is not 2016. Trump has played with our psyche for 4 years and is now.

Finally, there are a TON of trolls on every feed spreading fear and disinformation. If I click on comments that are negative, almost half are not real accounts. They are here to sow discord. Just focus on getting out the vote.

Trump is going down in flames. No one wants to say it out loud because of 2016. But....

@TheEconomist

On that note, shout out to @TheEconomist for being honest enough about what is happening in front of our eyes, and not overly adjusting with human error to compensate for 2016.

That said, we have 5 DAYS left and every moment should be spent getting out the vote. The Senate is FUCKLOAD important. As is picking up more House seats, and state legislatures. Work until the final moment to get out our vote!

PENNSYLVANIA‼️ain't playing - 2 million have voted:

by party affiliation:
Democrats - 1,354,624
Republicans - 426,431
No Party - 184,422

This is about 1/3 of the total votes in 2016, meaning Trump needs to make up nearly 1 million votes through Election Day.

Other stats on Pennsylvania:

Democrats have returned 70% of requested ballots, and have 609,994 outstanding.

Republicans have returned 54%, and have 359,777 outstanding.

Trump is going to need a HUGE in person turnout on Nov 3. Early in person voting is over.

And obviously Democrats - make sure you get in those 609k absentee ballots! Please do NOT use the USPS. Call or look at your district's website for other drop off options.

Federal law enforcement say a member of the “Boogaloo Bois” open fired on Minneapolis’ Third Precinct with an AK-47-style gun and screamed “Justice for Floyd” as he ran away, in part of a coordinated attack by the far-right anti-government group. startribune.com/charges-boogal…

"Ivan Harrison Hunter helped burn down and loot the Third Precinct building as part of a coordinated attack from the far-right group trying to ignite an American civil war."
