Holy fuck! Showing ZERO fear of retribution from a vengeance-obsessed TRAITOR who attempted to overturn the 2020 presidential election, usurp the constitution, and overthrow the U.S. government, Jack Smith, with ZERO fucks left to give is what a badass American hero looks like.

You literally cannot vote without ID.

You must be registered, verified, and matched to voter rolls.

This lie has been debunked for years. 👇

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable.

We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Democrats must remember this — and act on it.

WATCH — @jessicatarlov.bsky.social : “I felt like I was watching a Helsinki redux when Trump said Putin told him he didn’t interfere with the election… Trump just had the audacity to say Russia wants to see Ukraine succeed.”

So weird how Trump keeps doing Putin’s bidding!🤷🏼

NEW: Did Trump Just Confess to Attacking Venezuela?

They chose cruelty over competence, so it should come as no surprise that their grievances have not resulted in good governance. Trump’s supporters should have known: A movement built to worship a man rather than serve a country will eventually turn on itself.

Newly discovered recordings show how far Donald Trump went to attempt overturning the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia.

Trump told the Speaker he could call the session “for transparency, and to uncover fraud,” adding, “Who’s gonna stop you for that?” trib.al/wRqXCNU

An absolutely incredible and valid way to look at this.
Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama.

Us: Across your entire career?

Reiner: In a 6 year period.

Us: That sounds-

Reiner: -Each one will be arguably the best movie in that genre.

Don’t forget. Biden’s DoJ was investigating uncharged third parties in the Epstein files up until the last minute. Trump shut down the investigation, sent the files to DC, & fired the prosecutors. They went through them, redacted Trump’s name, then elected not to release them and closed the matter.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.
