Things I’d Like To See Happen (in no particular order):
1) Electoral College Eliminated
2) Law-Prez Candidates Must Release Last 10yrs Tax Returns & divest all business interests
3) Term Limits For Congress, FederalJudges & SC Justices
4) ERA Ratified
5) Year-Round Daylight Saving Time

Hey Pam Bondi. This is John Mitchell. Gird your loins because you actually work for the people and not the president and you will eventually find out what that means.

I’m wondering what @jvl.bsky.social is thinking about this vote right now @thebulwark.com. I better check for an emergency podcast.

Strong get-out-the-vote message for Dems.
Steve Bannon: If we lose the midterms and we lose 2028, some in this room are going to prison, myself included.

If he is saying billion, with a B, that's about 400 pounds per person, which seems like an unhealthy amount of weight to lose. bsky.app/profile/acyn...
Oz: We thought it was 125 million pounds. Our estimate is Americans will lose 135 billion pounds by the midterms

I seriously question the wisdom of interviewing on air a voter for whom English is obviously not his primary language when the president is claiming that illegal aliens are allowed to vote. Quit feeding the beast!!!

Trump did on 60 Minutes what he does every time. He spews a blizzard of lies, exaggerations and assorted other falsehoods, and if (as usual) the reporter isn’t equipped or doesn’t bother to push back, he keeps going.

Here is a detailed list, via @mehdirhasan.bsky.social
zeteo.com/p/factchecki...
![• "We have no inflation." Inflation is at 3%.
• "It's at 2%. It's-- it's the perfect inflation." Inflation is at 3%.
• "Right now [grocery prices are] going down." Grocery prices are up 1.4% since
Trump came to office.
• "A year ago, we were a dead country." Not only did the US have the fastest-growing economy in the G7 in both 2023 and 2024, but the Economist magazine called it "the envy of the world."
• "11,888 murderers were let into our country." Not only is this number inaccurate, but many of the non-citizens convicted of homicide either here or abroad came in during Trump's first term.
• "Washington, DC, was... almost like a crime capital of the world." In 2023, per PolitiFact, "at least 49 other cities in the world had higher homicide rates.
• "[Biden] hardly went anywhere. Guy couldn't leave his bedroom." Not only did Joe Biden visit roughly as many countries in his term of office as Trump did in his first term, but Biden was the first US president to visit an active warzone - Ukraine - not under the control of US forces.
• "I made Middle East peace. For 3,000 years, they couldn't do it." There is no peace in Palestine, no peace deal in place, and it isn't a 3,000-year-old conflict.
• "Communist, not socialist. Communist. He's far worse than a socialist."
Zohran Mamdani is not a communist.
• "I can't give them $1.5 trillion so that they can give welfare to people that came into our country illegally." The Trump/GOP claim that Democrats want to give free healthcare to undocumented immigrants has been repeatedly debunked.
• "They emptied their mental institutions and their insane asylums-- into the United States of America." Asylum seekers don't come from "insane asylums."
Obviously.
• "One thing I can tell you, the 2020 election was rigged." It wasn't. The courts agreed.
• "And a lotta people say when it's rigged you're allowed to do it again." A lot of people don't say this. The US Constitution doesn't, for sure.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:svawqo4jxobyyuqmixplvcux/bafkreicrg2pdihe5ntgygv6uxk37yldeygsbewwpbsjw7a7xwqjohmap6i@jpeg)

How sad is it that my first thought when I heard about the prevention of a potential attack was that it was BS?
MICHIGAN: “A lawyer who represents a man from the suburb of Dearborn who was said federal authorities haven’t given him many details about the investigation, said he doesn’t expect any charges will be filed…” 🤔

Democrats are expected to provide think tank level policy proposals for every societal ill under the sun (fully paid for too, natch!!) while Republicans are just like "we'll figure something out" and the media nods along.🙃
Rep. Jeff Van Drew on Republicans' healthcare plan: "The plan is to come up with something better."

Looks as if Trump is saying no Democrat will be allowed to win another national election—and he will use the FBI, the DOJ, and the CIA to make sure of that. This is a full-scale attack on American democracy, and every Republican, CEO, and conservative mouthpiece who doesn't object is complicit.
Trump: "We can never let what happened in the 2020 election happen again. We just can't let that happen. I know Kash is working on it, everybody is working on it. And certainly Tulsi is working on it. We can't let that happen again to our country."

Looks pretty thorough to me.
He hates American values and principles. He hates democracy. He despises the Constitution and its constraints. He hates most Americans. All he desires is money, power and staying out of jail. Am I missing something?

Just saw a scene of Hamas thugs with masked faces and carrying large weapons. Then I instantly flashed on images of ICE thugs and realized they’re dressed the same way. Yet the Republicans are claiming that Hamas supporters are attending the No Kings rallies. So now I’m really confused.
