Major sources of hate speech are located outside the US. Well yeah, we have this conversation every few months. And every few months people reject the bright shiny evidence that easiest way to ruin America is to feed the hate and bigotry that already exists here.

NEW: When Andrew Tate landed in the US, Customs & Border Protection seized his electronic devices. But @propublica.org found that a White House official told DHS to return the devices, emphasizing that the request came from the White House.

The White House Intervened on Behalf of Accused Sex Trafficker Andrew Tate During a Federal Investigation
Federal authorities were chided for seizing electronic devices from Tate and his brother, and told to return them, records and interviews show. Experts said the intervention was highly inappropriate.

Democracy returns when society leads with humanity.
When foreign lobbies become a political liability.
True patriotism—being free from foreign influence, becomes our greatest political asset.
That’s the future we must build.

Just a reminder, the coward who refused to accept an election loss in 2020 and then committed crimes trying to overthrow that election will certainly cheat, abuse his powers, and break the law to try to win the 2026 & 2028 elections.
He’s a real threat to democracy. Believe it.

Yesterday, Chuck Schumer and his fellow cowards showed once again that our politicians do not serve the people; they serve their donors and themselves. This political system is broken and the leadership is out of touch. If Schumer is not immediately replaced, Dems should lose any trust that remains.

If you look at the White House demolition story and your first reaction is "no one gives a shit about this, they're worried about their bills" and not "this is the easiest proof point ever that the GOP doesn't give a shit about your bills" I'm afraid you have failed a fairly easy political IQ test

The gerrymandered map passed by the North Carolina Senate today is a shameful abuse of power that targets communities of color with precision. Republicans are selling out their constituents to Trump with another gerrymander. Voters won’t forget—or forgive—this attack on their voice. buff.ly/b6SZfOd

These are calls for mass political violence, against all Democrats. They openly call for the bombing of "Democrat" cities and for the jailing or killing of Democratic politicians. They are from some of the most influential voices in right-wing politics. Will anyone say anything?
