Old time sixties liberal, never changed. I was born and raised in Connecticut and still live here. Afraid that our democracy is in mortal peril because of racist right wing crazies! Save us from MAGA!
Trump and his NFP hold a news conference

Imagine being so wedded to a certain style of horse-race political analysis that you "nothingburger" away the very likely possibility that the current President of the United States *raped children* and is using the vast and powerful apparatus of the government he controls to cover it up.

The irony is not lost on many in Washington that Trump says spitting on a DC cop is justification for hitting/punching back "hard" when he pardoned hundreds of Jan. 6 rioters who assaulted those same cops β and said attacks on them that day were "minor."

I am confused still. I thought Trump was insistent after January 6th that he didnβt have the power to order National Guard troops to DC. He and his cult followers all claim only Nancy Pelosi could do that.
Just the usual MAGA hypocrisy. www.bbc.com/news/live/c6...
The hell with the Republicans, go ahead with the redistricting. You know they would!

Donald Trump, if you will not stand down, California will be forced to lead an effort to redraw our maps to offset the rigging of maps in red states.
If the other states call off their redistricting efforts, we will do the same. And American democracy will be better for it.

What a champion for women!
Is anyone going to point this out?
Just because Congress is not in session does not mean you can't cry outrage from the rooftops! Get on every local TV/Radio outlet and press the case.

But don't spread it you wouldn't want to upset Netanyahu.

Fox calls it βrestoring gloryβ when Trump sends troops into DC on the pretext of fighting crime even though violent crime in DC is at a 30-year low.
Fox is poisoning our democracy with lies.
