Democrat. I voted for Hillary & I voted for Kamala because they were the most qualified not just because they were women. Fight not just for equality but equity for all. Support women. Support Black women. #boymom #catmom

Karoline Leavitt is a complete disgrace.

Her violent and unhinged rhetoric is going to get someone killed.

These extremists are sick people.

I founded and chair an "elite law firm" and we are not in retreat. I have spoken with many other "elite" firm leaders that are staffing up.

What the WSJ means is large corporate law firms. Please do not confuse quality with cowardice.

Musk plans to fire 7,000 Social Security Administration employees while calling Social Security β€œthe biggest Ponzi scheme of all time.” However, Americans have paid into the system their entire working lives!

French writer, Albert Camus once said-"Be careful, when democracy is sick, fascism comes to its bedside, but not to inquire about its health."

And with a thin smile, it fluffs the pillow, smooths the sheets, and whispers, β€˜Rest nowβ€”I’ll take it from here."

Thank you. We can only hope that someone with common sense on the other side is willing to stand up for our Democracy. It's like screaming into a void.
Watch for our midterm elections. They ought to be interesting to say the least.

I might add that Roswell is liberal. Roswell was gerrymandered into this douchecanoe's district too.

You can't gerrymander a county but a district is a whole different story. That's how rich mccormick got his seat in a blue Fulton County.

Roswell GA is in Fulton County. Fulton County voted overwhelmingly for Kamala Harris.

DOGE's spending has been secret.

No longer.

My colleagues have uncovered it.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot.

REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!
