"If it wasn’t Shirley’s video, it would have been something else. If it wasn’t MN, it would have been somewhere else. If it wasn’t about daycare fraud, it would have been something else. Everything this administration does is about creating a fig leaf to justify its violent dismantling of democracy"
The blame for alleged fraud in Minnesota belongs to conservatives
Privatization and a lack of oversight creates a vicious cycle.

Justice Brett Kavanaugh isn’t happy that his name has become synonymous w/racist immigration enforcement.
ICE’s policy of detaining people based on ethnicity is called a “Kavanaugh stop,” named after his ruling that allows it. He’s afraid the name will ruin his “legacy.” Too late!

Trump vetoes a bill with bipartisan support that would provide clean drinking water to rural areas of Colorado because the Governor won't pardon Trump loving Tina Peters. She broke state laws by tampering with voting machines. Trump is a a traitor to our nation. He should be charged with TREASON!

The alleged attack on Putin’s residence shows how fragile U.S. security guarantees could be. Russia can claim it, Ukraine deny it, and Trump says he was angry without evidence. I would not trust Russia not to stage a false flag, nor trust Trump not to take it at face value and void the guarantees.
