Trump: "Diese Menschen wurden in unser Land gebracht, um zu wählen, & wählen illegal. (...) Die Republikaner sollten die Wahlen verstaatlichen. Es gibt Bundesstaaten, die ich gewonnen habe, in denen jedoch angezeigt wird, dass ich nicht gewonnen habe."

Die Wahlen im November werden nicht frei sein.

If we could get billionaires to pay a reasonable tax rate, we could eliminate the national debt. I like this plan better.

Wave goodbye to elections, America.

That's it for you.

March, kick and scream...
It's to no avail.
And you know it.

It's going to cost you, either way.

But the world will only watch as you plummet into the darkness, of a toppled empire.

We all tried to warn...
We fires hoping to motivate.

If you campaigned for the presidency on a promise to destroy these assholes, you would win a landslide the size of FDR in 1936, when he campaigned on a promise to destroy these assholes.
Yes, Peter decided that the continued existence of our democracies isn't compatible with his desired level of personal freedom.

A good thing happened today: Haitians in Springfield, Ohio and elsewhere are (for now) safe from the planned ethnic cleansing operation. This happened because people came together — organizers, reporters, and those who care — and made it happen. Let’s take the win and continue the work.

Politics are often treated like radioactive material on Grammy night, writes Post pop music critic Chris Richards.

But on Sunday, something changed. The world outside had finally become too loud to ignore.

Klöckner: Es werde „schwierig, wenn die veröffentlichte Meinung sich immer mehr von der öffentlichen Meinung verabschiedet. Da muss es dann auch eine selbstreflektierende Korrektur geben“.

I got to chat with Aaron Rupar about his publication, his video clipping, and what it takes to document American politics in real time for the millions of people trying to keep up with the nonstop flood of news. One of the nicest guys in media. 👇🏼

Erinnern wir uns an Jens Spahn: "Können wir bitte aufhören eine demokratisch gewählte Regierung in den USA eine autoritäre zu nennen?"

Rund ein Jahr her. Das Ergebnis sieht wie folgt aus.
