RBG PAC’s $20M last-minute pro-Trump abortion campaign wasn’t just shady (and completely opposed by RBG’s surviving family members)—it was fully bankrolled by Elon Musk, new campaign finance reports show. Billionaire meddling in our elections must be stopped.

Sometimes the combination of arrogance and ignorance is breathtaking. Yes, US health care has high admin costs; that's because it relies so much on private insurers. Govt-run health insurance has much lower overhead

FANTASTIC NEWS! Romania’s Constitutional Court has just annulled the first round of the presidential election due to heavy Russian interference. The second round will not take place on Sunday and the first round will be re-run. The electoral authorities will have to validate all candidates again.

A little reminder for all those who say segregation was “so long ago”: Ruby Bridges, the first black child to attend an all-white elementary school, is still alive and well.

You can put lipstick on a pig, you can polish a turd, and you can put an adjudicated rapist and convicted felon in the Oval Office, it won't change who they are.
He will forever be a convicted felon.

I have recommended everyone w/GOP Senators who aren't among those who voted for Rick Scott (like Tommy Tuberville) to call your Senators & implore them to insist on FBI background checks for Trump nominees.
DO THAT!
