It's shameful.
The 2020 Georgia election case is going to be dismissed in its entirety, with the prosecutor offering less-than-persuasive reasoning. A miscarriage of justice that weakens our democracy.

Since Trump really start declining in early June nothing he and his regime have done have been able to stop his fall. He just keeps dropping. It's pretty remarkable.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Gender-affirming care saves lives
1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.

It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.

It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

Transgender care saves lives.
Study In The Journal Of Pediatrics Finds Trans Youth Care Lowers Suicidality, Few Detransition
The groundbreaking study found that suicidality dropped for transgender youth receiving hormone therapy by nearly 70%, with only 7 patients of 432 discontinuing treatment.

Narrator: Never is the correct answer, at least for them.
When Trump admin officials get asked why a certain sector of the economy is so bad, 90% of the time their answers begin with “we inherited.” Did everyone forget what Biden inherited in Jan 2021? Or what Obama inherited in Jan 2009? When are Republicans ever responsible?

Zohran Mamdani standing beside the President of the United States just said that the US is funding Israel's genocide and yet can't take care of its own unhoused children on live television.

I never thought I'd see something like that in my lifetime

trump is normalizing mamdani, not the other way around
Trump also just posted these photos to Truth Social, including the one with Mamdani standing next to a portrait of FDR. Trump mentioned Mamdani asked if he could have his picture taken there.

"It's an amazing portrait in the cabinet room," Trump said. "So he's a big fan of the New Deal, I guess..."

What a goddamn legend. Every big tough conservative masculinity guy has been crying about how terrifying cities are to live in for the past two years and now Trump wants to move back to NYC
Reporter to Trump: Would you feel comfortable living in NYC under a Mamdani mayoralty?

Trump: "I would. I really would. Especially after the meeting, absolutely."

ROFLMAO. Trump has essentially just endorsed Mamdani to his base.

I can't stop laughing.
Trump on Mamdani: "I think he's gonna surprise some conservative people, actually. And some very liberal people he won't surprise because they already like him."

Q: Why did you fly here? Aren't trains greener?

MAMDANI: I will use every form of transit and I want to make sure they are all affordable in NYC

TRUMP: That's a lot quicker too, in all fairness. I'll stick up for you.

Full stop win for Mamdani. No chaser.
Q: You have differences when it comes to ICE agents in NYC. How do you reconcile them?

TRUMP: We're gonna work them out. The mayor wants to have a safe New York. We're gonna work together.

I feel like I'm losing my mind LOL. Mamdani charmed him into admitting his worst qualities while simultaneously getting him to endorse Mamdani on all things.
Q: Just days ago you referred to Trump as a 'despot.' Will you retract?

MAMDANI: We're both very clear on our positions & what I really appreciate about the president is our meeting focused not on places of disagreement but shared purpose we have

TRUMP: I've been called much worse than a despot

Zohran: I dunno you want to sink the GOP nominee for governor?

Trump: no problem!
Q: Stefanik has called Mamdani a 'jihadist.' Do you think you're standing next to a jihadist right now?

TRUMP: No, I don't. I met with a man who's a very rational person

I really didn't think Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries could look more out of touch. Then the president just exchanged friendship bracelets with Zohran.

By the way, Jeff Bezos, you fucking pathetic coward: Zohran Mamdani got the pragmatic things he needed to get as a leader without ever submitting to the likes of MBS and disrespecting the memory of Khashoggi and every journalist in America.

The weird thing is with Donald Trump just said about Zohran Mandani is what every Democrat should’ve said about Zohran Mamdani the moment he secured the Democratic nomination.

Mamdani is a freaking Jedi and this timeline is unendingly wild.
Q: would you feel comfortable living in NYC under a Mamdani administration ?

TRUMP: I would. I really would.
