The best civic act we can do as US citizens is cast our ballot in every election.

Imagine if every eligible voter consistently went to the polls with their entire ballot marked.

We just might get the country we deserve. 🗳️

The Trump administration is REALLY allowing Qatar to build an air base in the US after they did a $5.5 billion golf resort deal with Trump and gave him a jet.

MAGA can take their ‘America First’ flags and wipe their asses with them. He is Trump First, and you are suckers.

Whew. I read this very long piece. Stream of consciousness and whack-a-doodlery.

Thiel tried to jam every bit of everything he’s ever read into his brain, and then spewed it out into a giant word salad.

Colorado AG Phil Weiser (D) is calling on Coloradans to turn out en masse for Oct 18 demonstrations against President Trump’s use of the military in American cities. “Don’t be afraid,” Weiser said. “Don’t be afraid to show up.” #copolitics

The corruption is taking place right in front of our eyes.

Just to be clear, this is EXACTLY what Pete Hegseth said, word for word, on video in a formal announcement:

“We’re signing a letter of acceptance to BUILD A QATARI AIR FORCE FACILITY at the Mountain Home Airbase.”

The felon just got his flu and Covid shots, per his physical exam report of yesterday.

Republicans are equating October 18 “No Kings” protests as anti-American.

The felon just greenlit Qatar government AFB access in ID.

The US House will not be working until October 20.

Meanwhile, not only are massive government layoffs happening; those that are working are going w/o pay.
