Elise Stefanik objected to electors from Pennsylvania even after the January 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol. It was terrifying to see how accomplished a liar she was that day. No sympathy for her whatsoever. www.adirondackdailyenterprise.com/news/local-n...

Why don’t you read Washington Post yourself and decide? The editorials are embarrassingly biased; the reporting is outstanding.

Be very skeptical of polls. Polls in 2016, 2020, and 2024 underestimated support for Trump because GOP voters are less likely to respond to telephone surveys. Pollsters tried to adjust the biased estimates due to non-response, but their weighting schemes didn’t work.

WaPo reporters are doing excellent reporting on the Trump administration and other news. You likely can read it via your local library’s online subscription.

The assassination attempt was real. A victim and the shooter died. We have a photo of the bullet going close to Trump’s head. How about leaving unjustified conspiracy theories to the far-right?

The assassination attempt in Butler, PA was real. A victim and the shooter died and others were hospitalized. Nobody claimed that Trump had his ear shot off - he had a minor wound. We have a photo of the bullet going past Trump’s head. Please delete your post.

The GOP Administration claims to be pro-life but their removing the recommendations for COVID-19 vaccines is endangering the lives of U.S. newborns, pregnant women, and children. GOP and Trump also are fine with the hundreds of thousands of lives lost overseas due to shutting down U.S. AID.

The Supreme Court keeps issuing overtly biased rulings such as allowing Trump to revoke the permission of 500,000+ legal refugees to stay in the US while their appeals still are being heard by lower courts. And the decision allowing Trump to evict transgender service members from the military.

Enemies of USA are gleeful that the GOP Administration is:

3. Removing international students;
4. Spreading vaccine disinformation;
5. Slashing aid abroad;
6. Attacking judges and courts that protect us from tyranny.
