Not a day passes that someone doesn’t tell me that they are exhausted or, more candidly, afraid. It is okay to be tired and understandable to be afraid. Courage doesn’t come from being well rested and feeling safe. It is found in overcoming those emotions. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-a...

#Biden, wake up! Don't miss your chance to: 1) prove you said what you mean...women deserve equal rights & #ERA should be added to Constitution & 2) preserve your legacy by standing up for women. We've waited 248 yrs! Publish the #ERANOW! We will not be democracy while 51% still marginalized.

This strikes me as a bit like mcCarthyism…..
Trump and his Secretary of Defense nominee have proposed purging military officers they view as too "woke."
A Heritage funded group is proposing names: offers who served on a DEI panel, or written about race, or sought to recruit at a historically Black college.

Remember the FBI informant who claimed President Biden took millions in bribes from Burisma?

He admitted today in federal court that he made the whole thing up.

And that he started spinning new lies after meeting with Russian intelligence.

BREAKING: Special Counsel Jack Smith files a motion to dismiss the federal indictment against Donald Trump, citing DOJ policy barring prosecution of a sitting president. Smith reaffirms the strength of the case but says the Constitution mandates dismissal before Trump's inauguration. (link in reply)

PCE inflation has fallen to 2.1%—nearly at its 2% target—and incomes are up nearly $4,000.

The economy has grown 12.6% under President Biden—more than any presidential term this century.

16 million jobs created and the lowest unemployment in 50 years.

🚨 Do not let Trump take any credit for this.
