Donald Trump is already laying the groundwork to undermine this election.
We have election lawyers and voter protection teams at the ready to fight back and make sure every last vote is counted and certified.

BREAKING: House Democrats have officially introduced a resolution saying Congress should let failing AI companies go bankrupt instead of bailing them out if the AI bubble bursts.
It also calls for executives who took reckless risks to be held accountable under civil and criminal law.

New: you think you know Proton, but you really don't.
I spoke to 8 current employees, got Slack chats, meeting audio, and an AI manifesto written by its CTO.
“That’s bullshit and loser thinking,” Yen wrote. “Stop thinking always of how to be slower, and focus more on how to be faster.”
CEO Andy Yen critiques AI in public. But inside, he is pushing everyone to use AI, even those with security concerns 404media.co/manifestos-fear-…

‼️ Proton CEO Andy Yen called a staffer's plea to pentest new code before release "bullshit and loser thinking".
Yen wrote that workers should prompt “better.”
Proton's CTO told staff AI wrote 90% of its code in October, much of it with Anthropic's Claude.

BREAKING: Employers worldwide are pulling back on AI as they navigate a flood of errors and low-quality work that sap employee time, raise privacy and security risks, and drive up costs, per the Guardian.

Thank you, Emmanuel, for your condolences. Unfortunately, the death toll from the Russian strike on a commuter train in Dnipro has already risen to 14. And just a few hours ago, the Russians struck a residential neighborhood in Chernihiv with a drone and killed two girls. They were only 15 years old. In Kremenchuk, a Russian “shahed” struck an apartment building. Tragically, three people were killed. My condolences to all those who lost their loved ones. In these three attacks alone, 56 people have been reported injured, including 10 children.
These are deliberate strikes against civilians, brazen in their cruelty, and the Russians are carrying them out right as the humanitarian operation in Oleshky is unfolding. Russia’s signals are clear – they want the war to continue, and everyone around the world must still work very hard to achieve major de-escalation through strong steps and appropriate pressure on the aggressor.
Peace is needed – and for that to happen, Russia must end its war and terror.
Je viens d'apprendre avec émotion qu'un drone à réaction russe vient de s'abattre sur la gare de Dnipro, avec un très lourd bilan.
J'adresse au Président @ZelenskyyUa et au peuple ukrainien mes condoléances et notre solidarité.
Nous devons, dans ce contexte, aspirer à bien plus qu'un cessez-le-feu localisé comme celui qui vient d'être négocié localement à Olechky. Il est intolérable que la Russie continue d'opposer son refus à toutes les propositions en ce sens, en continuant de miser sur l'escalade et en visant les civils.
Nous devons ensemble redoubler d'efforts pour une paix juste et durable et amener la Russie à la table des négociations.

This election is our last chance to at least rein in some of the foolishness of this Administration.
We need real leadership with concrete plans to lower costs, make health care more affordable, make housing more affordable, and get utility bills under control.
Let’s do what we can to make @KeishaBottoms the next Governor of Georgia. Let’s go send Jon @Ossoff back to the Senate. And let’s put this country back on the path to a better future.

Europe’s security is under threat! Pro-Russian hackers are attacking critical infrastructure in NATO countries, causing real-world incidents
Since late 2024, such attacks have been recorded in around 20 countries.
In Spain, hackers disabled cremation furnaces, caused a fire at a factory and disrupted the operations of wineries.
In Denmark, a hack of a pumping station left around 450 homes without water.
In the US, hackers interfered with wastewater treatment facilities and refrigeration equipment. At one meat processing plant, more than 900 kg of meat spoiled, while an ammonia leak led to an evacuation.
According to US prosecutors, Russia’s GRU was involved in financing and managing the CARR group.
The Z-Pentest group is also suspected of carrying out attacks. Hackers often breach systems without understanding the consequences of their actions and seek to cause maximum damage.
One of CARR’s leaders, Yulia Pankratova, told Bloomberg that the group would continue attacking hospitals and water supply facilities.
According to her, there are no “red lines” for the group.

🚨 Alexia Putellas is set to present her third Ballon d’Or to the fans at Bromley on November 1st, ahead of London City Lionesses’ match against Manchester City!

The issue was never about the duration of the speech. The issue is how dare a woman take up space and voice her opinion in a sport and society solely reserved for men. Obviously, they don't know the extent of what she has achieved. Hoping the next winner speaks for a good 30 mins
Alexia Putellas ha dado un discurso de aproximadamente 6 minutos y Harry Kane, uno de unos 12 minutos, pero en las redes sociales, la pesada ha sido Alexia.

New: FBI agents have expressed deep concern that they could be ordered to take legally questionable steps to investigate dubious claims of election fraud, and state officials are wargaming how to deal with federal intervention. with @CarolLeonnig
