Sears probably lost some Republican support tonight. Coming across as an angry Black woman always hurts.

Winsome's talking over Abigail is orchestrated. She doesn't want people to hear Abigail's answers - and she doesn't have any answers of her own.

I'm just gonna say, no male candidate could have kept their cool through these INCESSANT interruptions and talking over. @abigailspanberger.com has the infinite patience of a mom.

Let’s call this what it is: the President of the United States directing federal prosecution for his personal political agenda.

I stand with AG James β€” as we all should, for the sake of our democracy.

Winsome Sears is unhinged and doing her best Trump impression in this debate. Abigail Spanberger is remarkably poised and disciplined. The contrast is undeniable. Only one candidate is fit for office, Abigail Spanberger!

During the 4 years that Winsome Earle-Sears has been in office, the cost of living has gone up. No wonder she hasn’t released a plan on how she’d lower costs as Governor β€” she doesn’t know how.

As with Comey, the charges against Letitia James have no signature other than Trump’s handpicked personal attorney Lindsey Halligan.

No line prosecutor signed this document.

Impactivize: Shareholders of 30 Companies Worth $13 Trillion Vote Overwhelmingly to Defeat Anti-DEI Proposals EUGENE, Ore., July 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Shareholders of 30 major corporations, collectively valued at more than $13 trillion, have voted overwhelmingly to reject anti-DEI proposals during 2025 prox...

🚨 Missouri Attorney General announced yesterday he sued two proxy advisory firms for advising investors to vote against anti-DEI proposals.

AG Andrew Bailey's announcement comes days after news that investors in 30 corporations worth $13 trillion voted overwhelmingly to defeat anti-DEI proposals.

"The Constitution, of course, grants Congress no express power to strip people of their citizenship, whether, in the exercise of the implied power to regulate foreign affairs or in the exercise of any specifically granted power." - Afroyim v. Rusk, 387 U.S. 253 (1967).

Sure-Trump’s threat to revoke Rosie O’Donnell’s citizenship might be a distraction from Epstein

But he built a MAGA Supreme Court

Republicans in Congress are too cowed to fight him

And he wants to end birthright citizenship

Many of us warned he might go after citizens next

This is how it starts

But note, this is precisely what he's doing w/Rosie O'Donnell and people are falling for his spectacle trap.

He's threatening to strip her citizenship (which he cannot do) BECAUSE she tied his policies to TX failures.

But instead of focusing ON THAT, everyone is pointing at the tweet.

Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz after touring "Alligator Alcatraz": "These detainees are living in cages. The pictures you've seen don't do it just. They are essentially packed into cages. 34 detainees per cage...they get their drinking water & they brush their teeth where they poop, in the same unit"

I’m seeing many reposts of Donald Trump’s demented distraction from the Jeffrey Epstein mess about Rosie O’Donnell. What I’m not seeing is her sassy response. Here it is:

You would do well to disseminate this at least as much as the Trump tweet.

He attacked her to shut up any talk of accountability for his policies.

So rather than gaping at his tweet, talk about accountability.

Utah Sen. Mike Lee Says Selling Off Public Lands Will Solve the West’s Housing Crisis. Past Sales Show Otherwise.

The Wrong Moment to Reduce Judicial Power The Supreme Court has given a lawbreaking president an even longer leash.

The Supreme Court ruling against nationwide injunctions is one more example of the justices enabling executive overreach at a time when checks and balances are profoundly strained. bit.ly/3GqD8rF

The Paperwork Will Kill You How America Abandons Its Most Vulnerable

It was never the violence that broke them. Not the bruises or the broken ribs. It was the form they had to sign to prove they were hurt. The form that made it real, that made it official, that made them wait.

The Paperwork Will Kill You is not a metaphor. It is a death certificate in triplicate.
