Something Jack Ciattarelli said in tonight’s NJ gubernatorial debate had me dumbfounded. He said the way to fix NJ’s broken education system is to emulate what they’re doing in Louisiana and Mississippi. He said it TWICE.

Amazing turnout this evening in Pitman, NJ, by activists protesting a town hall given by GOP gubernatorial candidate Jack Ciatterelli, a trump loyalist. Protesters outnumbered the MAGAts entering the town hall venue. A favorite chant coming from the protesters was, of course, “Hit the road, Jack!”

Regardless of Tyler Robinson’s motives, a strong national leader would be calling for calm. Instead, trump said “we just have to beat the hell” out of “radical left lunatics.”

Jack Ciatarelli, self-proclaimed MAGA candidate for governor in NJ, said "Shame on any Republican across the country that doesn’t support" trump’s tax hike bill. This will gut health care access and raise food and housing costs in NJ and across the US. Shame on YOU, Jack.

Flag Day isn't about celebrating the president.
That’s why we're hitting the streets on June 14 to say No Kings and show that organized people power is stronger than authoritarian aspirations.
June 14, we are taking back OUR flag!

Today I attended a #HandsOff rally in Pitman, NJ. The organizer expected 75-100 protesters; 500+ showed, people of all ages, families w/kids. There were speakers and a guitarist who sang and played protest songs. Along with Sen. Booker’s 25-hr speech, it offered me the most hope since the election.

When asked how he could come to the conclusion that diversity hiring had caused the crash, Mr. Trump had a swift reply.
“Because I have common sense,” he said. “OK? And unfortunately a lot of people don’t.”
MAGAts: Show your support for this eloquent and thoughtful statement!

When a leader with great power is asked to show mercy to the powerless, that speaks to the leader’s humanity. Rev. Budde spoke meaningfully and graciously as a Christian, but her words represented the teachings of many religions, as well as no religion at all…

…Her words were a plea from one human to another. She tried, and failed, to appeal to trump’s humanity. He is completely devoid of the one thing that a leader must have, and that Biden had in spades.

This will be a disaster. Zuckerberg has no ethics whatsoever.
Zuckerberg conceded there would be more ‘bad stuff’ on his sites. Here’s the latest. (Gift Article)
The social networking giant will stop using third-party fact checkers and instead rely on users to add notes to posts. It is likely to please President-elect Trump and his conservative allies.
