Donors, patrons, performers, staff and crew must all boycott the Kennedy Center...all ticket holders must return their tickets and demand a refund.

"Be respectful to your superiors, if you have any; also to strangers, and sometimes to others. If a person offends you, and you are in doubt as to whether it was intentional or not, do not resort to extreme measure; simply watch your chance and hit him with a brick."

NO...trump did NOT send troops into CA to turn on the water.
Is there anything we won't lie about?
Is there any lie his cult won't believe?
We are the fact checkers now...put the truth out there at every opportunity.

"Whoever saves one life saves the entire world"

It seems we need to be reminded of this during these difficult times when so many are being threatened
'I take the words 'saves one life' to also mean 'protects one life'

In his ongoing effort to fill his administration with the most unqualified, and to please his white supremacist base, the felon has tapped Mel Gibson, a rabid antisemite, as ‘special ambassador’ to Hollywood

The felon is going to order that flags be raised to full mast during his inauguration and then be re-lowered.
Perfect that the flags will be lowered to half mast right after his inauguration... very symbolic.

Jack Smith's final report says the felon would have been convicted of election interference if he hadn't won the election.
He may have won...but America lost.

After the incoming felon said that the Gulf of Mexico should be changed to “Gulf of America,” Claudia Sheinbaum, the president of Mexico, suggested that states including TX & AZ could revert to their former name, “America Mexicana.”
“It sounds good, doesn’t it?” she said

I think we should return TX

A convicted and sentenced FELON doesn't belong in our White House...am I wrong?
January 10, 2025 at 3:00 PM
Yep… this is how it feels here in Kentucky right about now.
As a friend said..."Hey Alaska, thanks for the free trial offer but we'd like to cancel"

It must be good news Friday:
11th Circuit *DENIES* Judge Cannon’s decision to block release of Jack
Smith’s report
This, and his sentencing today, should be the lede during his inauguration
January 10, 2025 at 2:55 PM
Today is Sentencing Day... today trump officially becomes a convicted and sentenced FELON!
January 10, 2025 at 2:53 PM
Never forget! Don't let them whitewash this day or convince people that it was just a "day of love".

Trump ran on a platform as a peace candidate who would stop endless wars and would end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours; but in the last 24 hours conceded that was not going to happen, & he wants to invade Greenland & Panama, and wants to take over Canada through economic warfare.

It's time for Jack Snith's report to be mysteriously leaked ala the Pentagon Papers
January 8, 2025 at 2:54 AM
This would be unbelievable if it was anyone else:
"trump lashed out over plans for the U.S. flag to be flown at half-staff during his upcoming inauguration to honor the late Pres Jimmy Carter ‒ the White House said it isn't reconsidering the order."
In reality they should be half staff all 4 yrs

"…by many traditional metrics, the America that Mr. Trump will inherit from President Biden when he takes the oath is in better shape than that bequeathed to any newly elected president since George W. Bush came into office in 2001."

How long will it take Trump to screw up this up?
We can't let them forget how good things were when he took office...we can't let him take credit for what he inherited.
"trump is inheriting an economy that is about as good as it ever gets,” said Mark Zandi, chief economist of Moody’s Analytics.

I'd like to remind the rest of the world
that the majority of US voters
have voted against Trump
for 3 elections in a row.
Trump has fallen below 50% of the popular vote.

With 152.7M votes counted so far, he leads Harris 49.99%-48.22%.

This was not a landslide or a blowout by any means.

159+M total ballots in 2020.
