There are a thousand things wrong here and the primary one is that Stephen A. Smith is intellectually lazy and uninformed. But the dangerous one is that he thinks there is some sort of draft "Stephen A. Shit For President" movement

It is literally zero surprise that they knew their hand-picked climate deniers weren’t putting out real science.

Their nonsense has never been real, but part of a fraudulent propaganda campaign, designed by fossil fuel to protect its “free-to-pollute” business model.

Rep Prez Eisenhower understood this. Rep Prez Teddy Roosevelt understood this. Rep Prez Lincoln understood this. Why do modern day Republicans not understand this? Because modern GOP are, truly, “Republicans In Name Only.” It’s time to call them out for the RINOs they are @hcrichardson.bsky.social

Trump tapped white nationalist Jeremy Carl for Assistant Secretary of State for International Orgs.

He called the Civil Rights Act an “anti-white weapon,” pushed the “great replacement,” called Juneteenth a “race hustle,” and compared J6 defendants to Black defendants in Jim Crow trials.

Trump can’t pardon election felon Tina Peters for state crimes, so he’s squeezing Colorado instead—moving Space Command, canceling $100 mn in grants, and vetoing a clean-water pipeline. This type of presidential coercion threatens federalism and rewards election misconduct, this CATO paper argues.

Partisan political speeches have no place on military bases to active duty troops. These soldiers have no choice - they are ordered to be there. No politician should ever make a speech like this to troops. The continued silence on this issue by Republicans is a disgrace. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Trump, speaking to troops in North Carolina, is now attacking ex-governor and Democratic Senate candidate Roy Cooper as a "disaster" who was culpable for a woman getting her "throat slit"

Anti #ICE protesters carried a MASSIVE U.S.
Constitution through the streets of Minneapolis.
Not a flag.
Not a slogan.

Thousands marched, demanding accountability and asking whether federal enforcement is aligning with the rights written on those pages.

If ICE still stands for "Immigration and Customs Enforcement" then why do Republicans want them anywhere near a polling location?
Because lawless ICE goons are harassing, arresting, and murdering people who are citizens, you idiot.
