Don’t forget that the sandwich guy was released at the scene and then re-arrested in a raid by a full tactical team. They were willing to kill him and and any neighbors in the way to get propaganda footage of the “arrest”.

NEW: Aurora City Councilwoman Danielle Jurinsky has conceded. A stunning defeat for a MAGA media fixture who built a national profile on claims of a "complete gang takeover" of Aurora that led President Trump to visit and falsely proclaim the city "conquered" by an immigrant gang

HELL YEAH! I went to a statewide Maine Indivisible convening a few weeks ago, and defeating this was the top priority from the group.
RESULT: Maine voters reject Question 1, a ballot measure that would have implemented a barrage of new voting restrictions, especially for mail voting.

The President wants to use the military to crack down on Americans who are exercising their 1st Amendment rights to oppose him. I can’t think of a better reason to insist on exercising those rights.

3 signs that Republicans have no intention of allowing fair elections ever again:
1. Mike Johnson refuses to swear in a duly elected Democrat.
2. The Texas GOP does a mid-decade remap to steal 5 House seats.
3. Trump is still trying to bury the truth about his plot to overturn the 2020 election.
