“What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?” Frederick Douglass asked on 7/5, 1852. What to the women and girls is the Fourth of July? Lives shackled and cut off under a felon's reign; years of mourning, rebellion, shame.

The woman caller was a Republican.
She didn't know they would come for her too.
But they're coming for everyone - unless you're a billionaire, that is.

Social media post:

Republican C-SPAN caller to Mike Johnson:
"I have two medically fragile children ... lf
we see a lapse in pay come the 15th, my
children do not get the medication that's
needed for them to live their life because
we live paycheck to paycheck."

When a mother calls C-SPAN and pleads
with Mike Johnson, "My kids could die ...
you could stop this," it tells you everything
you need to know about his party.

🚨 Do ICE have MRE provisions? Oh, no. That’s a damn shame. All that income and no place to buy a meal. Hey, I know what they can eat… 1/2

祝贺委内瑞拉反对派领导人玛丽亚·科里娜·马查多获诺贝尔和平奖！
诺贝尔委员会表示：“当独裁者夺取政权时，表彰那些勇敢捍卫自由、奋起反抗的人们至关重要。
川普自己本身就是一个独裁者、民主体制破坏者、战犯普京支持者，妄想得诺奖，想多了吧！

Trump biographer Michael Wolff says Epstein showed him Polaroids of Trump with topless teenage girls

When asked if she's seen those pics, AG Pam Bondi wouldn't say "No!"

And litigious Trump hasn't sued Wolff for defamation

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

I am not fearful — I am fearless.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..
