Health insurance premiums are going up next year — unless you work at these companies As U.S. health insurance costs rise, some companies are paying for all of their workers' premiums. It's a big expense — but they say it pays off.

A Ballot Measure Targets Mail Voting in Maine - Bolts Question 1, on the November ballot, would set up a barrage of new restrictions on absentee ballots that would considerably affect older voters and people with disabilities.

There’s 1,000 times more chatter about the Maine senate race in a year than about Maine’s ballot measure in 3 weeks that’d bring voter ID and crack down on mail voting… maybe let’s start there??? boltsmag.org/maine-questi...

Tony's smart in that he always frontloads these shows with the most important stuff bc he knows that's when viewership is highest. I think this is gonna be the norm going forward on ppv weeks to fulfill their Collision contract, 1 hr after Dynamite, 1 hrs before the ppv. Last hr almost always dull.

Totally not creepy bro

Long story short, an actual Nazi doxxing ring. Enough people reported them that they went away for like 12 hours and then Elon personally brought them back. The site is dead. If you’re still on there, go lock your account right now

"Attendance record" - we all saw the end of that show and how empty it was. They gave out a ton of comps, and the comped people left because they didn't care.

I'm still pissed "Friends of the Parks" fucked us out of the Lucas Museum. To save what's essentially a parking lot right now. #Chicago

I think Silva let the cat out of the bag when he said "we'll be on a new platform." To me that says streaming deal, not TV but they'll still call it a TV deal. I'm guessing they join the FAST channel on Roku with NWA and WOW. 🤼‍♂️

You heard President Obama—vote Yes on CA Prop 50 and return your ballot ASAP. Then, pick up the phone to help others make a plan to vote on or before November 4th.

CityNerd — Shockingly, They've Been Lying to Me About Chicago I went to Chicago to see if it's really the crime-ridden, third world hell hole I've been told. You will NEVER BELIEVE what I actually saw.

Up on Nebula now: I went to Chicago to ground-truth the “crime-ravaged third world hell hole” allegations. You will NEVER GUESS what I found

That Saturday to Wednesday lull always feels like forever but I'm excited to see some quality graps tonight. 🤼‍♂️

Call me a shitlib but I'm not trusting Graham Platner until I've seen some debates and a deep dive on his past. Janet Mills stood up for trans kids in Trump's face and won. Anyone can say shit, she has a record to back it up.

She's cool as hell. Super funny and has a natural charisma. I think she was underutilized and pigeon-holed in the fed.

Shit market WWE too, this is the same city where they had to switch to a smaller venue for NXT even after Orton had been advertised for weeks.

I keep seeing people refer to people like @aoc.bsky.social and @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social as radical Democrats, and ... I dunno, I don’t really see it. They just seem like competent young politicians with a fairly mainstream progressive message. Which is why they got elected.

U.S. Attorney Was Forced Out After Clashes Over How to Handle Russia Inquiry

Extraordinary NYT story:

Trump’s DOJ pressured out another US Attorney in WESTERN Virginia for finding that a grand jury probe his bosses demanded was unwarranted.

They wanted a case discrediting the Russia probe — evidence be damned. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/14/u...

Hey #IU alums, it's time to pull your funding from the University.

“Money in politics,” the most feared topic in the American political system

Graphic by Swing Left highlighting the most flippable Republican seats across a U.S. map, showing districts won by Kamala Harris in 2024 by a margin of 4% or less, marking them as competitive for the 2026 elections.

Promotional image for Swing Left featuring a map of New York and Pennsylvania highlighted with districts NY-17, PA-07, PA-08, and PA-10. It lists Representatives Mike Lawler, Ryan Mackenzie, Brad Bresnahan, Scott Perry, and Jen Kiggans. The background is bright red.

Graphic showing a map with highlighted areas and text for Swing Left, focusing on districts IA-01, IA-07, and WI-03 with respective representatives Mariannette Miller-Meeks, Tom Barrett, and Derrick Van Orden noted. One area, NE-02, mentions an open seat. The map outlines are in white on a red background.

Graphic for Swing Left featuring a map highlighting specific electoral districts in Alaska, Arizona, and Colorado with corresponding text annotations.

These are some of the most flippable House seats in the country.

These Republicans either:

🤏 Won their seats by 4% or less in '24
🔵 Represent districts that also voted for Harris

Democrats can flip the House in '26. And if we win, the GOP loses their majority—and the ability to push their agenda.

The Stephanopoulos interview with Vance is all you need to know about how woefully unprepared Republicans are for a post-Trump world.

Trump on Charlie Kirk: "He was able to fight people that were enemies. And he didn't necessarily love those enemies so much. You know, I heard 'he loved his enemies' and I said, 'Wait a minute, is that the same Charlie that I knew? I'm not sure.' But I didn't want to get into it."

The Speaker of the House Is Abetting Authoritarianism Every Trump needs his Johnson: a flunky who will rationalize his crimes.

"To bring a democracy under authoritarian control, you need more than a strongman. You need politicians who will assure the public, as we slide toward one-man rule, that nothing odd is happening." Wouldn't you know who one of them is!

Swing Left graphic titled ‘Our 2026 Must-Hold House Districts.’ Text explains that these first-term members of Congress either won by less than 3% or represent districts that voted for Trump. Blue background with large bold navy text and an arrow pointing right.

Swing Left graphic highlighting East Coast must-hold House districts for 2026. Text lists NJ-09, Rep. Nellie Pou; NY-04, Rep. Laura Gillen; NY-19, Rep. Josh Riley; and VA-07, Rep. Eugene Vindman. A map of the northeastern U.S. shows red pins marking district locations.

Swing Left graphic highlighting Michigan’s must-hold House district for 2026: MI-08, Rep. Kristen McDonald Rivet. A map of Michigan with a red pin marking the district location appears beside the text on a bright blue background.

Swing Left graphic highlighting West Coast must-hold House districts for 2026. Text lists CA-13, Rep. Adam Gray; CA-45, Rep. Derek Tran; and OR-05, Rep. Janelle Bynum. A simple map of the western U.S. shows red pins marking district locations.

If we’re going to flip the House blue, we have to defend these competitive Democratic seats.

These first-term Representatives either:

🤏 Won by under 3% in 2024
🔴 Represent districts that also voted for Trump

Swing Left volunteers are organizing now to keep these seats blue in 2026.

And the China groveling after he called Taiwan a country. I think he's a total fraud that sees himself more as a brand than a human being.

Even my boomer mom likes AOC.
