"Taxing trust fund kids to create a trust fund for all America's kids."

We DEFINITELY want to own that phrase and keep it alive.

THAT'S A WINNER.
I want to be loved as passionately as Erika Kirk hugs literally every man.

There is no one promised way out of this.

There is, however, one way to make sure Trump and Miller prevail and achieve the goal Slotkin describes for them: “making sure that he and his ilk never have to give up power.”

And that’s to act as if they have already won.

When you kill innocents on the open seas as a justification for war, you're scared AF at what the public will discover in the Epstein files.
Working for the West Virginia vote.
Nothin to see here
Very normal, Christian behavior for a grieving widow and a man married to an Indian Hindu American who publicly said he wants her to change her religion.

Not sure who needs to hear this but we landed on the moon
You think they weren't pre-screened. Ffs. No way they would have made it to the camera line.
What if we started showing up dressed like ICE in masks with 'full battle rattle" to their enforcement actions and confuse the shite out of them. Carry your passport and just swarm them with 10 or 20 fake cosplay ICE. "Pitch in" to "help". Get in their cars when they try to leave. Keystone Kop it.
Can Noem pass that CDL English test? Ffs.
note how the messaging has shifting from "we're targeting criminals" to "we're deporting everyone"
Kristi Noem: "We will continue to do this work until there are no longer anybody in our communities that's here illegally."
OVER 120,000 polling places in US 2024 election. Of 450,000 active duty Army only 45,000-ish are combat troops & 405,000 are support staff. Stop pollyanna bullshite rhetoric. We sound like silly alarmists as Progressives when we seek to impact emotion rather than impart intelligence into discourse.
Gomez: He’ll use these troops all over the country unless we put a check on his power. Winning the House is just the first step, because once we do, we’ll be dealing with a trapped wild animal…
How many "troops" do y'all think there are? Of 450,000 active duty Army soldiers about 10-25% are "combat", point of the spear "troops", about 45,000. The other 9 out of 10 are "support" staff. Not sure the Navy or Air Force will have better "troop" availability to monitor elections in Iowa either.

Gilded. Not "guilded". Plus "gold guilded(sic)" is redundant.

Adelita Grijalva now holds the record for longest delay between winng a special Congressional election and being sworn into office.

Why the delay from Mike Johnson?

Perhaps it's because Grijalva would cast the final vote needed to release the Epstein files.

OK, regardless of source, credit where due: That's a great headline.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Undocumented people aren't eligible for food stamps, yet I guarantee that if you arrived at their door hungry, they would share their food with you.

REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”
Two things SUPER MAGA make me laugh. First 2 Commandments of The Ten Commandments get COMPLETELY missed by MAGA cultists supporting Trump. And White Nationalist, Christian Zionist MAGA when reading Revelations & imagining the "End Times" fail to recognize T-Rump as "The Beast". Hilarious.
