Medicare for All - "That's socialism!"

Social Security - "That's socialism!"

Debt free education - "That's socialism!"

Universal childcare - "That's socialism!"

Billions for Argentina, ICE, refurbishing Trump's Qatar jet, and tax cuts for the rich...

"That's just how it is."

I will repeat this every single day for the next three years: Any Democrat running for president in 2028 must pledge to immediately tear down/bulldoze/demolish Trump’s ballroom and fully restore the East Wing and any other piece of the People’s House Trump has or will destroy.

The company brought Junior in right after the election as part owner. They just won the largest drone motor contract awarded by the Pentagon.

This is their playbook for the midterms. Intimidation and harassment - if we are lucky it will only be that. Because their full playbook is most likely much worse but this is the warmup act.

Forcing a political opponent into court on sham charges is straight out of the authoritarian playbook

Trump is tearing down the rule of law just like he’s tearing down the East Wing

This chart—using data from Catalist, in this article by @scottanderson.bsky.social—is a Rosetta Stone for how the presidential map changes over the next decade. We've got to turn WI MI PA blue before 2032—because at that point, they won't be enough to get to 270.

If a temporary resident of the White House can totally demolish the East Wing to build a gaudy ballroom, without any authority, approval, or regulation, he can tear down the rest of the White House to build a Walmart. That this destruction is allowed underscores how off the rails our country is now.

All Democratic politicians should be using the destruction of the White House as a backdrop to talk about how Donald Trump is destroying everything we value to enrich himself.

Trump’s tearing down the East Wing to build himself a $350M ballroom while Americans struggle to afford health care.

Senator Ruben Gallego went to the site of the Trump teardown.

Feds play more games over where to dump Kilmar Abrego Garcia on the global map. Now: Liberia.

Reminder: Abrego's lawyers agreed that he'd go to Costa Rica, but feds' insisted on sending him to Uganda, Eswatini & Ghana. A judge's patience is running thin. www.allrisenews.com/p/abrego-gha...

Federal Defendants hereby provide notice that they have identified a new country for removal that has agreed to accept Petitioner: the Republic of Liberia. Although Petitioner has identified more than twenty countries that he purports to fear would persecute or torture him if he were removed there, Liberia is not on that list.

Feds want to send Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Liberia by Oct. 31.

That's days before Abrego wanted to get Todd Blanche on the hot seat for vindictive prosecution hearings schedule for Nov. 4-5.
