Once again, here is the BIPARTISAN Congressional report that documents all the links between the 2016 Trump campaign and Russia: www.intelligence.senate.gov/2020/08/18/p...

Lankford has read it, but he assumes you're stupid and lies.

Jesse, you're talking about your own mom. WTF is wrong with you? Maybe you should have a conversation with her instead.

Elizabeth Warren: "I'm just going to say something that a lot of people said on Saturday. We don't have a king in this country, and Donald Trump doesn't get to sit over in the White House and make all of these decisions by himself. At least he doesn't get to if Senate Republicans would grow a spine"

We’ve received a lot of questions about Trump’s demolition of the White House East Wing.

Here’s how the process is supposed to work:

From the Gulf of Mexico to the Department of Defense to the White House, Trump is a dog peeing on everything in sight while saying "Mine." And that's all he will ever be.

omg!

"Demolition crews have begun tearing down part of the White House...

"Construction teams Monday were demolishing a portion of the East Wing, with a backhoe ripping through the structure..."

It's no longer left versus right or even Democrat versus Republican.

It’s now democracy versus oligarchy. Freedom versus dictatorship. Right versus wrong.

Millions hit the streets this weekend in solidarity with each other and to affirm the foundations of the common good.

Maybe if we fried more between pizzas the coating would last longer. We may never know....

That skillet has been through a lot. It goes camping with us and everything. The sides stay nice and shiny, but I have to season the bottom a lot. Pizza eats through the seasoning pretty fast.

Donald Trump is now officially demolishing part of the White House to make room for his $200 million golden ballroom.

This comes as Americans can’t afford groceries and the government is still shut down.

No Kings couldn't have gone better - massive turnout, no violence, and it drove Trump so crazy his response was "Kings are good and I poop on everyone." Best of all was the effect on the millions of participants and everyone watching.

My latest at Public Notice: www.publicnotice.co/p/no-kings-p...

No Kings was a huge success. Just look at Trump's response.

Turnout was enormous. There was no violence. And the wannabe king is triggered.

Our confirmed count stands at 8.1 million participants worldwide for yesterday’s No Kings protest. Thank you to everyone who helped verify the numbers through our submission website. While some MAGAs attempted to submit false or misleading data (such as reporting “one person” for major cities)

@carlsengames.bsky.social Thank you for Cocoon. It has been a great game to play with my young son. Too many puzzle games aren't very puzzling, but this one is so clever. Sometimes my son figures them out, and sometimes I do.
