Pritzker is a leader.

Too bad there aren’t any Republican leaders.

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 9h

Pritzker: "He said he was going after the worst of the worst. It's not going after the worst of the worst when you're just literally stopping children who happen to be brown & asking them for papers as if they're gonna have proof they're a citizen. Pull out your phones and film everything you see"

she is a huge part of the cover-up. Her reward was/is her current position.

Pam Bondi just reminded us that she's part of the Epstein cover up. Bondi's defensiveness/evasive at Tuesday's Senate hearing when asked about Epstein is what prosecutors call consciousness of guilt. Bondi is guilty of being part of cover up. My article: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/pam-bondi-...

Pam Bondi just reminded us that she's part of the Jeffrey Epstein cover up

Tuesday's Senate hearing gave us even more proof

“Frankly, we're not sure why anyone would consider purchasing a Model Y Standard when the Ioniq 5 SEL RWD can be had for almost exactly the same price.”

Yup, really no reason to buy a new Tesla. Or pretty much anything else for the same money.

ditto. spent two weeks deleting all my photos one month changing my name on FB. Then in late Jan, I got rid of it for good.

This is why I deleted my Facebook account.

Yes I can be friends with people who I disagree with politically. But that means disagreements like “should more or less tax money go to this department or that one?”

It doesn’t mean “are these people human, or not?”

Meme saying: It depressed the hell out of me that people I used to consider friends have turned into people I wouldn’t tell where Anne Frank was hiding.”

Stephen Miller goes on camera saying ICE is fighting Antifa on the streets because the country is a war zone with dangerous criminals out to destroy America and then the video will just cut to a video of a group of ICE officers suplexing a 110-year-old blind nun

The GOP won't swear-in Adelita Grijalva, leaving AZ-07 without a federal representative during a government shutdown.

She will also be the 218th and final signature to force a vote to release the Epstein files—I'm sure that's just a coincidence, right?

Speaker Mike Johnson is blaming the shutdown. Others think it may have to do with the Epstein files.

Today I wrote about why my law firm is currently litigating 63 voting and election cases in 30 states. While the legacy media focuses on other things, Trump has launched a wholesale attack on free and fair elections.

What will it take for regular people to understand that if they refuse to stand up against fascism they will not be spared? Fascism is a serial killer with no restrictions on who it targets.

Btw, THIS type of thing is a way to circumvent the character limits of posts here!

I do it on my Notes app. Patrick put it all in a post & screenshot his complete text knowing he could not post it because he went way over limit.

Get creative to break boundaries EVERYWHERE!
