Amen.
I'm watching the entire Jack Smith hearing.
I adore Jack Smith and am so proud of his dignity.
This is grace, personified.

Trump said if Kamala was elected there would be a world war three. If you’re paying attention, you know that everything Trump accuses someone else of, he does.

May it be so that the only political party in America wins the House AND the Senate; with the help from the few true, honorable Republicans behind The Lincoln Project, assisted by Dems in that organization, to defend and preserve democracy.
FOLKS NEED TO REALIZE HOW HUGE THIS IS
For the first time in modern Texas history, Dems have candidates running in every state and federal race on the 2026 ballot.
That includes all congressional seats, every state House and state Senate race, plus statewide judicial and State Board of Education.

Not sure about the self-confessed compulsive serial sexual assaulter of married women having pedophilia as another criminal habit. The probability ratio is high that he has Epstein's disease, OR HE WOULDN'T BE TRYING TO DISTRACT US WITH SUCH VILE RACIST LIES.
Let's move on from "Release the Epstein Files" to "Call Out Their Names".

Uh, other intel agencies around the world made that determination before the Trump appointed the current CIA head. Glad that department head had a moment of honesty.

Yes! I will call both my Senators and Congresswomen.
Since Mike Johnson won’t do anything about the DOJ’s illegal slow-walking of the Epstein-files release, we have to.
Write to your Rep here and tell demand Pam Bondi release ALL of the files!

It's too bad that the Wall Street Journal uses editorials like this to sell lies that they can't use in straight news stories. This, to help Felon 47 end democracy so he won't get impeached and imprisoned for the rest of his life. The Journal USED to be a reliable source of responsible journalism.

Brave Americans look out for law biding neighbors. I had to find that sort of courage when I returned from Canada, surrendering to The Draft. I fought under this 🇺🇸 in Nam. Felon 47 invented magical bone spurs to avoid STANDING UP FOR IT. Racism: not patriotic, no matter many $billions sell it.
At MPR now: Across the Twin Cities, ICE agents and activists are playing a high stakes cat-and-mouse game. The goal is to make ICE agents' jobs as difficult as possible, and protect their immigrant neighbors.

Felon 47 dreams up new lies about Black immigrants, and EXPECTS all good Make America WHITE Again types to believe them. Part of the most famous living racist in the world today's is the underlying scam that racism is patriotic. Nope.
In a powerful moment, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey made clear he will NOT back down to the 47 regimes efforts to terrorize Somali immigrants.
This is powerful. This is what real leaders do!

One fun thing to do vis-a-vis this would be to avoid National Parks entirely on June 14.
Trump is just the worst! The National Park Service is reshuffling its free-admission schedule so that visitors get in free on Donald Trump’s birthday next year, while Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth (previously free days) will now require regular entrance fees.

Did you know that before Nixon and Reagan, health insurance companies in America were non-profit? Yep, they screamed about "socialized medicine" and gradually shifted the focus of our entire healthcare system from public welfare to... making bucks off illness.

He doesn't care. The white privileged felon sees our tax money as free money. Why? Because, putting America first was never anything more than a slogan to sell the scam that having a Black President made America as bad a place to live as he, Felon 47 has made it. Hell no, I won't go elsewhere.

Why? Oh. Got it. Felon 47 will break any law in order to protect pedophiles and those terrorists he recruited and got Charlie Kirk (RIP) to pay for chartering all the busses that brought his chosen violent extremists to DC on Jan. 6th, 2021.
It is absolutely wild that the guy who won’t stop yelling about law and order is now personally stepping in to keep January 6 documents hidden from the police officers who were attacked that day. He knows exactly what’s in those files and he is terrified the country will see it.

Trump: If you don't like my nazi policies, I will revoke your citizenship and deport you to that gulag in El Salvador.
Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.

BREAKING
Jeffrey Epstein's grand jury records from the 2019 prosecution must be released, a federal judge ruled.
That means all three will come to light.
Victims' privacy must be shielded, and feds can't use protective orders to block release of other files, Judge Berman rules.

Yup. A MAGA in Minnesota has conducted a private investigation into Somali ownership of nursing homes in his State. Only problem is his facts are as accurate as Trump's claim that he won in 2020. Or, that Haitians are eating the beloved pets of Springfield Ohioans!
This is all a set-up and MAGA performative bullshit.

If there is a way to purge legit registered voters from the registration rolls, Felon 47 will order Republican governors and secretaries of state to find a way.
🚨🚨🚨I’ve talked before about how our records are NOT the most up to date and should NOT be used in this way. It WILL result in citizens being denied their constitutional right to vote. You can submit public comments until 12/12 and I urge you to please do so!! Spread the word!! #AltCitizen alert🚨🚨🚨
In May, the Trump Admin secretly--and probably illegally--began using SSA data to verify voters' citizenship.
One big problem: Social Security data don’t have complete or up-to-date citizenship info, so this could disenfranchise U.S. citizens ahead of the midterms.
