Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social, I'm no expert on cognitive illnesses, but it feels a bit detached from reality for a sitting POTUS to forget that he was in power during an attack on the U.S. Capitol, doesn't it? Do you know anyone in journalism with experience covering dementia-like symptoms?

Pritzker: "You just heard a tidal wave of lies from the VP. It's a bit shocking. And you heard over & over him just making things up. There's a reason why the judge here in federal court said that they admin lacks credibility and why even the Nobel committee chair said the admin lacks integrity."

This isn’t about politics; it’s about ownership of the scoreboard. When the scoreboard changes owners, the game changes. The sale no one voted on...and why you should care.🔥👇

Keep it mind the legislation sunsets after the 2028 election when re-districting
returns to control by the independent panel for the 10 review…

…even the independent districting committee agrees with Newsom’s bill

Vote YES on CA Prop 50! This is ONLY done in response to the GOP literally trying to steal the 2026 election and IF they succeed, Dems will PERMANENTLY be a House MINORITY party which means NO checks and balances EVER on the corruption in the WH. Don’t take my word on it. THEY’VE told us themselves.

Here’s why:

I knew Fox News was theater. I just didn't realize it was a repertory theater that recycles actors for different roles.

You'd think a company that had to pay $787,000,000 for deceiving its viewers would be a little more careful about blatantly continuing the practice.
