Trump wasnโ€™t satisfied fucking up just the USA, he had to start a war of choice in the Middle East. Iran was not close to having anything that could strike the USA. Trump himself told everyone he โ€œobliterated Irans nuclear capabilitiesโ€. His words, not mine.

The reason we have โ€œstupid rules of engagementโ€ is to make sure we donโ€™t bomb elementary schools.

ICE is staffed with members from 8+ different domestic terrorist organizations

Disband ICE.
It is terrorizing us domestically
as it shoots citizens (like Good & Pretti)
while calling them domestic terrorists.

Politicians are there to help the people of their country. As you can see, that is not happening. Soโ€ฆ..this is what you have instead. You must stop him. Now.

Buried in the "fog of war" are reports that 47,635 files were removed from the Epstein files that were made public by the Justice Department in accordance with the Transparency Act..

In 2016, there were 16 Republicans seeking the nomination, and they chose the worst one (by far). Hope we can do much better.

This is why he bombed Iran. So no would be watching him remove files about his crimes and corruption with Jeffrey Epstein. The DOJ is covering up the crimes of our rapist president.

I keep thinking about voter intimidation. People may not want to go to a dropbox or fear they need a passport, so they won't vote at all. I feel like we need to start training for ballot collection or make Know Your Rights cards, election style.

And don't come at me w/ "midterms aren't happening".

4 March 1974, ABBA released 'Waterloo', the 1st single from their album and the 1st single to be credited to the name ABBA. It later became the winning entry for them in the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest & a No.1 hit in several countries. It went on to sell nearly 6 million copies. #ABBA

Iโ€™m ordering flags to be flown at half-staff as we pay our final respects to Reverend Jesse Jackson ahead of his interment this weekend.

Reverend Jacksonโ€™s lifetime of lessons and wisdom leaves a righteous path that is well prepared to carry forward his vision of a better world.

Virginia Supreme Court clears way for voters to counter GOP gerrymanders The decision restores the referendum and allows election preparations to move forward immediately.

Good news!

The Virginia Supreme Court ruled Wednesday, for the second time, that voters can decide whether the state can redraw its congressional map โ€” clearing the way for a referendum that, if successful, could help counter GOP gerrymanders nationwide. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Texas is close to not being a functioning democracy

Itโ€™s the hardest place to vote because Republicans have put impediments in place based on totally bogus vote fraud concerns - that they just make up

The courts have become complicit in this effort

What weโ€™re seeing in Texas now is a disgrace

From U.S. CENTCOM: โ€œweโ€™re only concerned at shooting at everything that is shooting at us.โ€

So obviously a battalion of 165 adolescent schoolgirls was shooting at the Americans. Right?

Not that we needed more proof, but the GOPโ€™s indifference to the American soldiers deaths, that were directly caused by Trumpโ€™s stupidity/recklessness, shows all their โ€œoutrageโ€ of Benghazi was political theatre

Just like everything else they whine about
