β€˜Nazi heaven’: Inside Miami campus Republicans’ racist group chat The chat is the subject of a Florida International University police investigation.

The secretary of Miami-Dade County’s GOP started a group chat for conservative students β€” and within 3 weeks, it was filled with over 400 instances of the N-word, Nazi rhetoric and writings of "dozens of ways of violently killing Black people"

AOC: This is about actual crimes happening in front of us. This is about shredding the Constitution and plunging us into war. This is about taking crypto money and money laundering… So if you’re asking me if I’d support impeachment, I do

We’ve got to keep the Epstein victims and survivors centered while we pursue transparency and accountability.

Their stories must be told.

So we’re just going to forget all about this and never ask Trump, Leavitt or Hegseth about it again after the first day because this is totally normal so who cares.

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.

Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

2 weeks after I entered the 2020 Republican primary for President to challenge Trump, 22 GOP primaries & caucuses - on orders from Trump - were cancelled. Here he goes again - trying to take the vote away from every Republican in Texas. What all good cult leaders/fascists do.πŸ‘‡

Every Republican: "It's not a war. Don't call it that. It's a limited and targeted military operation. Congressional approval is not needed."

Trump: "We're doing very well on the war front."

I get that supporters of Jasmine Crockett are disappointed, but all Democrats must come out in force to support James Talarico. We stand a chance of flipping this senate seat blue.

There were two great candidates. Now, it's about taking the senate and the Supreme Court that comes with it.

Lucy McBath telling story of GA man, present in GA since he was 2. He is a double amputee, who can't use a wheelchair. He is not permitted a shower chair. He is required to crawl thru feces to shower.

These are his wife & daughters, all citizens.

Noem is trying to filibuster describing med care.

One hundred and sixty-five children were killed in a U.S.-Israeli strike on their elementary school. This is an aerial image of the graves being prepared for their bodies.

I defy anyone to justify this.

That Ken Paxton can wield influence over the voting process of an election in which he is a candidate speaks volumes to the unhinged GOP corruption of Texas politics.

Objection: What Happened in Dallas County Was Not a Glitch What happened in Dallas County tonight should scare the hell out of you.

What just happened in Dallas County is one of the most blatant voter suppression operations I've ever seenβ€”and it happened in a *primary*.

In March. Imagine November.

I broke it down here:

Honestly, while everyone's fixated on Texas, the most promising news for Democratic chances in the Senate is what happened in North Carolina, where Democrat Roy Cooper got 758,808 votes compared to the 625,667 votes for all Republican candidates combined.

News: Commanders across dozens of U.S. military bases told troops the war on Iran is part of "God's plan" so Trump can bring about "Armageddon"

News: so Trump can bring about "Armageddon." The Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF) has been
"inundated" with complaints since the U.S. and Israel launched attacks on Iran over the weekend, receiving more than 110 complaints from U.S. military personnel stationed at dozens of sites across the Middle East.
Journalist Jonathan Larsen broke the story, sharing specific complaints made by troops. One such complaint made by a noncommissioned officer reported that their commander had
"urged us to tell our troops that this was 'all part of God's divine plan' and he specifically referenced numerous citations out of the Book of Revelation referring to Armageddon and the imminent return of Jesus Christ."
"He said that 'President Trump has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth," the NCO continued. "He had a big grin on his face when he said all of this which made his message seem even more crazy."
MRFF told Larsen that over 110 complaints came

The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has received 110+ complaints from US service members across 30+ sites about commanders using religious rhetoric

Including calling the war with Iran "part of God's plan" and Trump "anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon”
