Leaked document. Yikes, things are about to get much worse. It looks like we’re on the verge of becoming a military state across the country. Step out of line, and the man come and take you away.

The President of the United States is so upset about his failed campaign for a Nobel Prize that he's now trying to claim someone else's prize as his own.

It’s long past time for Speaker Johnson to do his job and swear in Arizona Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva. She won on September 23rd that’s 26 days ago.

Schumer is spending his time convincing a 77(!) establishment candidate to run for the Maine Senate seat to prevent an exciting progressive from winning, meanwhile…..
Chris Van Hollen for Senate Minority Leader.
We need someone at the helm who understands the fight we're in and is willing to fight it. As far as I've seen, no one in the Senate Dem caucus is speaking with more clarity or conviction.

These are the same kind of weasels who would’ve called George Washington & America’s revolutionaries “terrorists.” They spend their days sucking up to King Trump & demonizing peaceful protest just as some in America sought to appease King George III.
Looking forward to No Kings Day.

ICE has been deployed to *provoke* civilians, not to protect them. They want to throw tear gas canisters and get people on the streets riled up, all to create footage for Fox News and Newsmax, et al., that will be used as a pretext for imposing martial law to lower voting rates in Democratic cities.
The only violence I’ve been seeing in Portland is from the so-called Feds!!!
Keep sharing these videos; it’s evidence.
