Trump has added new plaques under his ‘presidential walk of fame’ in the White House.
On Obama: “Barack Hussein Obama was the first Black President…One of the most divisive political figures in American history.”
On Biden: “Sleepy Joe Biden was, by far, the worst President in American History...”

"Marriage isn't for disabled people" is an utterly insane thing to say.
Here's Trump judicial nominee Justin Olson today, admitting than in 2015, he gave a sermon in which he said that “marriage was not intended for all people,” including “our handicapped friends or our persons with physical disabilities that might prevent the robust marriage that we’re called to.”

This is an important moment, and we need to explain to the public why it's important.
An agency with the power to decide who gets to broadcast is supposed to be independent from the president so it won't abuse that power. If it's not, then we are letting the president seize the power to censor.

The Republican propaganda that Trump “inherited” a bad economy from Biden and is making it better is the exact opposite of true. The numbers don’t lie and people know what they are experiencing.
