Trump is loathsomely evil. Small, nasty, and cruel. Racist and corrupt. And increasingly delusional and vengeful. Congress must act to remove him now.

"...because your empathy has nowhere left to go. So it turns to anger, which is what happens when the part of you that knows something is wrong keeps getting ignored."
If you’re not angry, you’re not paying attention or you’ve checked out. Now is not the time for silence. Please take a moment to read and share this piece by my friend @out5p0ken.bsky.social.

Nah, it was real —- old enough to remember Trump and family not renting to Black tenants, — Tim Scott who prays Trump’s Obama post is “fake,” and said:
“Praying it was fake because it’s the most racist thing I’ve seen out of this White House. The President should remove it.”

Just hopped off a phone call with my grandmother. And she said something that I’m going to carry with me today: “God doesn’t care about how much people talk about you, but He does care about how often you talk for people who can’t.”

Everyone should call their local election officials and ask them what they're doing to prepare. Our governors should deploy the Guard to protect polling places from voting machine and ballot seizures.
Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) to ABC about Trump: "I think he intends to try to subvert the elections. He will do everything he can to suppress the vote. If he loses the vote -- I think the Republicans now expect they will get a drubbing in the midterms -- he will take action to overturn the result"

It's a well known fact in Ukraine and China that agreements with America are not worth the paper they are signed on.
Sign a deal with Trump now, have it torn up after next election. Sign a deal with president Newsom, have it torn up when it suits them.
America is not trustworthy.
