This is about revenge, stay tuned.

She called herself a “battered housewife” because she tied her whole identity to Donald Trump and finally realized how abusive he’s always been.

Unfortunately, this isn’t goodbye, it’s a setup for her comeback swing.

To the six Democratic lawmakers who made that beautiful video reminding our military members of their duty and obligation to NOT obey illegal orders, I say this:

Make MORE of them.

To the men and women who wear the uniform...my brothers and sisters in arms...I know the message from those six Democratic lawmakers wasn’t just heard...it resonated. The nation will look to you to act with honor. I have full confidence you’ll rise to the moment.

Love this

So he's still president today?
After calling for the deaths of political opponents?
This is not normal.
This should never happen in the USA.

Sorry, George Washington Would Not Have Hanged Them. This week, Donald Trump continues to use his claimed power to kill people who have received no due process, in international waters, based on his administration’s assertion that they are narcoterroris...

I hope
you’ll read this piece that I wrote about Donald Trump, the price of having a president who openly calls for his political enemies deaths, & why we should be discussing this with friends & family during the holiday. joycevance.substack.com/p/sorry-geor...

ESQUIRE: “ICE is hiring literally anybody, and it’s terrifying… people who flunk the exam, criminal records… yet they’re allowed to tear children from their beds at night.”

CNN: In the last couple of weeks or so, she's become kind of an ally on some issues. What do you make of this?

Auchincloss: No, John, she hasn't.

Trump’s Angry Tirade Calling for “Death” to Dems Just Backfired Badly As Trump’s call for the execution of “seditious” Dems works against him, Rep. Chrissy Houlahan, one of his targets, explains why she and other Dems are warning servicemembers against carrying out ille...

Remarkable: Rep Chrissy Houlahan, one of the Dems that Trump called for executing, tells me her office literally filled out a Capitol Police threat report that listed "the president" as the person making the threat.

It's at 9:20 on our pod. Much more like that here:

I’ve said this every month for a year.

@Acyn Mamdani: I have spoken about the Israeli government committing genocide and our government funding it and I shared about the concern that New Yorkers of wanting their tax dollars to go to the benefit of New Yorkers and what we see right now we are in the ninth consecutive year of children being homeless…

Zohran Mamdani standing beside the President of the United States just said that the US is funding Israel's genocide and yet can't take care of its own unhoused children on live television.

I never thought I'd see something like that in my lifetime

AG Rayfield opposes Trump administration's efforts to expand expedited deportations without due process

AG Rayfield and a multistate coalition are fighting a Trump policy that would expand the ability to deport people without due process. This “expedited removal” policy has been in place near the border, but the Trump administration is seeking to expand it nationwide.

In an amicus brief, the coalition argues that the expansion of “expedited removal” could harm families, public safety, and the economy, while increasing racial profiling and deterring immigrants from seeking healthcare or reporting crimes.

We will always stand up for due process. That's why we are challenging the Trump administration’s expansion of the “expedited removal” policy, which would allow them to deport people without due process anywhere in the country. This is absolutely unacceptable.

What We're Bracing For Thanks to brave supporters in Congress and in the public, we have won one victory, the passage of the bill to reicase the Epstein files. But we know the battle is far from over. As we approach the release of the files, here is what we are bracing for: 1. Attempts to blame the victims for our own or each other's abuse. Years ago, Epstein got away with abusing us by portraying us as flawed and bad girls. We cannot let his enablers use this tactic to escape accountability now. Some of us were neglected children.Some of us were used to recruit other girls our age. These were tactics that Epstein and Maxwell used as they ensnared victims and they are standard tactics of all sex traffickers. These tactics reflect on them, not on us. 2. Incompicte disclosures. Other than redacting victim names, we want all the files disclosed. We ask our champions in Congress and in the public to continue fighting to make sure all materials are released, not selected ones. 3. Threats to our physical safety. Many of us have already received death threats and other threats of harm. We are bracing for these to escalate. We ask every federal and state law enforcement agency that has jurisdiction over these threats to investigate them and protect us. 4. Efforts to pull us apart. We are already hearing efforts to suggest that victims who had reached the age of 18 were not really victims anymore. We denounce this outragcous argument. Some of us were over 18 when we were victimized. Some were vulnerable because of childhood sexual abuse. Some were vulncrable because of poverty. Some of us were assaulted by Epstein and Maxwell and their accomplices using force, intimidation, and violence. All of us were vulncrable because of life circumstances our young selves faced that were manipulated by Epstein and Maxwell and for which we were targeted. A 20 or 22-year-old is no match for a forceful and determined pair of hardened, methodical, middle-aged predators. We reject any claim t…

The Epstein Survivors have issued a new statement in which they plead for a full disclosure of the files and express their fears as most of them received death threats.
Please take a moment to read their message. Let’s all give them a sound support.

Zohran Mamdani did to Trump through sheer charm what it took Elon Musk a thousand engineers to do to Grok

Judge dismisses charges against Chicago woman shot by Border Patrol Prosecutors had accused Marimar Martinez and another defendant of ramming their cars into a federal vehicle in October. Her legal team argued it was federal agents who rammed her.

I HOPE (🤞🤞🤞), they bother file charges against him for attempted MURDER!!!

I am LAUGHING HYSTERICALLY at this meeting! Republican campaign consultants built their entire midterm strategy around making Mamdani into the devil incarnate and the face of Democratic Party, then Trump slobbers all over him today in the Oval!

Working people have been left behind in New York. In the wealthiest city in the world, one in five can't afford $2.90 for the train or bus. As I told Trump today— it’s time to put those people right back at the heart of our politics.

I’m an American, but I was born and raised in Germany, so I know exactly what the Swastika represents. Displaying them is illegal there now. So imagine my surprise and absolute disgust at the news, that the U.S. Coast Guard, will now no longer classify the Swastika as a symbol of hate. WTAF?!

This is delicious.

So the new version of MAGA is that Marjorie Taylor Greene is a traitor, Rand Paul is a RINO, and Zohran Mamdani is great.

Got it.

Enten: "This is probably the worst 10 day period for the president in the polls his entire second term. The numbers are just atrocious ... when your best poll has you 14 points underwater, you know it's truly bad and it's as bad as 26 points underwater ... -43 with independents! They despise him."

Again, women.

Zohran Mamdani to release PSA video, "How to talk to your deranged racist MAGA uncle at Thanksgiving dinner."

OMG!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I’m thinking the bitter end is nigh and what was the GOP will never be deMAGAfied.

It goes from bad to worse. But, you're absolutely right. He isn't cult leader material. He lacks Trump's cachet, or should I say, audacity.
