Born on January 15, 1929, today could have been Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s 97th birthday.
Dr. King was only 39 years old when his life was cruelly cut short.
39!
He was just a KID by today’s standards.
Imagine where we’d be today…

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

The Montreal assessment test (MoCA) isn't a cognitive test in the sense Dump means. It's a cognitive impairment test, often used with patients who had a stroke to check their recovery rate. It doesn't test IQ either.

Governor JB Pritzker just sounded the alarm bells about Trump’s plan to steal the midterms and maybe even CANCEL them:
“He's challenging the integrity of the next election by sending troops into our cities. That's what I believe this is about. It isn't about fighting crime.”

This is the ad that ran in Ontario that got Trump all bent out of shape about Canada….and no lies detected:
"When someone says let’s impose tariffs, it may look like they’re doing the patriotic thing… but over the long run trade barriers hurt every American worker"

They don’t GAF about the Constitution, and they’ll do whatever it takes to keep Trump breathing long enough to seize a third term.
So when you start thinking your vote doesn’t matter, remember this: they know it does. That’s why they’re trying to take it from you.
This isn’t going to end well.

Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:

Please define “culturally conservative”.
Trump’s social media strategy is exclusively an appeal to his political base – largely white, working-class, rural or small-town, evangelical and culturally conservative, according to scholars who study communication in politics and the media.

Campy, exaggerated and partisan, many White House social media posts target the president’s base. But the communications approach may pose a risk to democracy.
