It's a race to the bottom to decide who in the Trump administration can spew the most crazy, fabulous fiction aka "lies."

It seems a constant with the right wing news/propaganda sources to show videos or photos of supposed protesters burning the 🇺🇸 American flag. No source, no location, no date, zero identifying information to confirm it happening in L.A, Portland, Chicago - it's an insult to our intelligence.

I'm wearing an "Alexander Hamilton" costume. We defeated tyranny once, we will do it one better this time, by defeating it through peaceful protest!

I think that's a fair assessment. Press reported that in Norway they were preparing for retaliatory tariffs for when Trump learned he didn't get the Peace Prize.

Tish James, a true Justice Warrior, was indicted today by Trump's kangaroo Justice Department. It's a good time to send NYS Attorney General James a donation. No matter how small, let's have her know that she is not alone secure.actblue.com/my-express/e...
