🔔 👀 BEAMAN: “IT WAS A FAIR ELECTION.”

Tennessee Republican megadonor Lee Beaman, a Trump TVA board appointee, admits to @schiff.senate.gov he no longer believes the 2020 election was stolen, after previously calling for alternate electors.

Seems like a big deal! 🤷🏼

Reminder about Jan 6:

it really happened
It was a horror
140+ police were injured
A range of violent weapons were used by attackers
Chants to hang Mike Pence were heard
There was a gallows and guns
Pipe bombs diverted police as mob approached

That man has INFINITE energy for playing golf, sending mean tweets & being an asshole, but ZERO energy for doing the job a bunch of idiots voted for him to actually do.

I used to think Republicans fell in line because they feared Trump would attack them in a primary election. Now, I realize it's much worse. They are physically afraid of Trump's supporters and the risk of violence.

After I was cut from the team, I worked overtime for six years because I was determined to win a gold medal for my country. I'm campaigning just like I played basketball: by outworking everyone. It's time we had someone in the Senate who fights for all Iowans.

1/6 - Yesterday eve, Trump had a hypomanic episode borne of narcissistic rage. He made post after post after post. Short posts. Reposts. Hundreds of them. His gut was a simmering stew of agitation and desperation. His malignant pathologies rule him, projecting his malice outwardly.

Guy voted for a rapist and just can’t figure out why his daughters are mad at him. Clearly it must be something wrong with them.

The average age of U.S. homebuyers is now 56, up from 49 last year.

In 1981, the year trickledown economics began, it was 31.

Rachel Campos-Duffy, a working mother, promoted the antisemitic conspiracy theory 'Cultural Marxism' when she compared feminism to communism while interviewing Isabel Brown, another working mother. I'd bet Campos-Duffy makes more money than her husband does right now.

This is the mansion Alan Jackson built. It sold for $28M. Van Epps hobnobs with the GOP elite in private while excluding the average Joe. He is the epitome of the billionaire's club that Aftyn will be fighting when she goes to Congress! @aftynbehn.bsky.social The choice couldn't be clearer!

I worked for almost 30 years, paid my bills, including federal taxes. I saved for my future but what I did not plan was to have major medical expenses in my late 40s that would leave me bankrupt on disability and unable to work.

I never wanted free, just fair.

National Guard troops don't sign up to be used as political pawns. They sign up to serve their country, not needlessly deploy to American cities to pick up garbage. These two soldiers should be alive right now and at home with their families for Thanksgiving. I'm furious.
