Let's not forget that trump's revenge tactics were used on two American citizens long before he targeted James Comey and Letitia James. Through Rudy Giuliani, he 1st targeted Ruby Freeman and her daughter, Wandrea "Shaye" Moss, two women who were just doing their jobs as election workers. They won.

He actually called this exemplary prosecutor, attorney and Attorney General scum. WE know who is scum and where they are. It is most definitely NOT AG Letitia James, who held him accountable for his crimes & who he's chomping at his bit to take his petty revenge on

WE know he's blatantly lying. WE are the protesters and WE aren't being paid to protest him & his fellow Republicans, including the corrupt felon in the White House. WE don't want the National Guard "out" or in our cities, anywhere. It's not what WE paid them to do.

Sen. Roger Marshall: "October 18 is when the protest gets here. This will be a Soros paid-for protest for his professional protesters. The agitators show up. We'll have to get the National Guard out. Hopefully it will be peaceful. I doubt it."

Capping off tonight's The Weeknight, it appears MSNBC has finally decided to untether their anchors, allowing them to speak truth. The 3 hosts talked candidly about trump's plans for 'ridding' the gov't of Democrats through their firings. Their 'game' plan that they inherited from Russell Vought.

21st Ed @21sted.bsky.social · 10h

Trying to revert to a legitimate, not-for-sale news network, MSNBC had a Friday evening happy hour. Their 1st guests tonight were Kwame Raoul; Charles Coleman, Jr.; and Corey Brettschneider on the regime's prosecution, primarily, against AG Letitia James. They 'drilled down' & 'brought receipts'.

If the Dems bail out a guy who is firing furloughed workers while he has his ballroom built on the taxpayers dollar and is sending 20B to Argentina and constructing an air base for Qatar in Idaho during the shutdown

This is so fucked up‼️Military families are having to go to food banks because #TrumpShutUSDown We bailed out Argentina to the tune of $20 billion and Qatar is getting a Air Force base in Idaho, but our military personnel have to resort to this. Republicans can’t govern‼️

One week ago: Trump told farmers that China was coming back to buy soybeans.

Today: He canceled the Xi meeting and is threatening massive new tariffs.

Trump lied. Again. And farmers get crushed. Again.
This isn't governing — it's arson.

And the president is holding the match.

The 2025 Nobel Peace Prize has been awarded... and, thank goodness, it wasn't the guy who's stolen our White House!

The Norwegian Nobel Committee seems to have agreed, seeing as they said...

'When authoritarians seize power, it is crucial to recognize courageous defenders of freedom who rise and resist,' the Norwegian Nobel Committee said as it announced Maria Corina Machado as the winner of the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize

Most Russians don’t know Putin is a dictator—because he controls the news media.

Same thing is happening with legacy and mainstream news media in the U.S.
