In Rocky Mount, Virginia, a statue was erected to honor 70 Black Union soldiers who fought in the Civil War. There are fewer than 25 monuments nationwide honoring the United States Colored Troops, and the memorial in Virginia is the state's first.

Trump posted this. He’d rather have us talking about his racism than about pedophilia. Contact your GOP lawmakers and insist they condemn this. Here’s how: www.senate.gov/senators/sen...

A Republican-led Utah audit of over 2 million voter registrations found only one noncitizen, who never voted.

The results undercut the right-wing narrative of widespread noncitizen voting, especially as Republicans renew their push for a proof-of-citizenship requirement in voter registration.
Utah reviewed its voter rolls for noncitizens. It found one. Who never voted
The results sharply undercut the narrative of widespread noncitizen voting Republicans are using to promote new nationwide restrictions on voting.

UK Armed Forces Undersecretary Alistair Carns on Trump’s statement that they stayed behind the front lines in Afghanistan: “I served 5 tours alongside Americans. We shed blood, sweat and tears together. There’s only one thing worse than working with allies - and that is working without them.”

Asked if he’ll attend the funeral of West Virginia National Guard member Sarah Beckstrom, Trump said:

“It’s certainly something I can conceive of… I won West Virginia by one of the biggest margins of any president anywhere.”

20-year-old West Virginia National Guard member, Sarah Beckstrom, died a day after volunteering to serve in DC so that others could enjoy Thanksgiving with their families. She deserves our gratitude, not political exploitation by a shameless president who scapegoats immigrants to swell his power.

Just a reminder that for the first several months of this admin it was MAGA activists who were calling for this to be released. And Bondi, Patel & Bongino all promised it. Then Trump freaked out and many of them reversed their positions. This was not initiated by Dems. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Barrasso: "What I know is that Jeffrey Epstein is a convicted sex offender and he is dead, and President Trump threw him out of Mar-a-Lago 21 years ago. To me what's going on with Epstein is this is the Democrats trying to appeal to their far-left base and trying to change the topic."

SCOTUS gave Trump immunity from prosecution.

Congress wouldn’t impeach him no matter what he does.

He ignores court orders.

Ignores Congress.

His cabinet does anything he tells them to even if it’s illegal.

DOJ does too.

And the military.

That’s how autocracies are born.

Has there ever been a weaker Speaker of the House than Mike Johnson, who just picks up the phone each day, says ‘yes sir’ a bunch of times, then hangs up and does what he’s told? Which is do nothing and lie constantly.

A new poll shows 75% of Americans believe Trump has not focused enough on lowering prices. Trump responds to that by just lying about prices. Don’t believe your lying eyes or empty wallets - believe a serial liar making billions in the Middle East!

It really is amazing how often you can repeat something Trump said verbatim without identifying Trump as the person who said it and Trump supporters will say it’s the dumbest thing they’ve ever heard.

So Speaker Johnson gave the congress another week off. Paid of course, while they shut the govt down.

The GOP has made it clear they have no interest in compromise with Dems. So they will have to figure how to reopen their govt that they closed.

And they get another vacation
