I am just going to keep posting that the TX governor recently pardoned a political murderer.

The dude texted "I'm going to shoot protestors", then went and shot a Black Lives Matter protester. He was convicted in a jury trial.

Hard to find a more blatant example of celebrating political violence.
Gov. Greg Abbott pardons Daniel Perry, veteran who killed police brutality protester in 2020
A Travis County jury sentenced Perry to 25 years in prison last year, prompting Abbott to ask the state parole board to review his case.

BREAKING:

The White House lashed out at the creators of this ad for "fear-mongering".

It must have really struck a nerve. Maybe they don't like being outed as fascists.

You know what to do: SPREAD THIS EVERYWHERE!

🚨EXCLUSIVE: Rep. Mark Pocan just blew the lid off a MAGA cover-up: FOUR Republican Senators switched their votes to confirm Trump’s cabinet after their families got death threats from MAGA lunatics. That’s not democracy. It’s terrorism - and it’s infecting the GOP from inside.

This feels like something that shouldn't be (but undoubtedly will be) difficult to discover.
Van Hollen indicates he'll be looking into how/where Trump got the money to pay El Salvador given Congress had not appropriated funds for that purpose.

BREAKING: In a blockbuster revelation, Senator Van Hollen reveals the Trump Administration has promised to pay El Salvador $15 million, over double previous estimates, “to detain these prisoners, including the illegally abducted Kilmore.” This is illegal to do without Congress.

Exiled Russian journalist Mikhail Rubin said last week there was little resistance when press rights began to disappear in Russia. “We did not resist for the small things." Everyone was waiting for the worst to occur before resisting, but when it finally did they had already lost ability to resist

You have $100 in your checking account.

One day, you check your balance and it's $60. You haven't made any withdrawals.

You call the bank. They say $40 was taken as part of their "waste, fraud and abuse" program.

Would you be ok with it?

Coz it's happening to your social security and Medicaid.

Rejecting the ad was an act of service.

It saved the group $115k and got them vastly more coverage than they would have had otherwise.
The Washpost, which is bleeding millions of dollars and shrinking its staff, accepted -- and then rejected -- a $115,000 ad that criticized Elon Musk.

Anyway, here's the ad that the Post's business side didn't want its readers to see ⤵️

The President-elect, his son, and the world's richest man are spinning webs of fiction to distort what's actually to blame for a wildfire that's destroyed thousands of homes and killed at least five people.

(What's actually to blame is, you know, climate change.)
