We are now one of the few countries that will no longer honor World AIDS Day

We join with Russia, Iran, Kuwait, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, Nigeria, Libya, North Korea

You know all the countries that hate humans rights

I find it shameful

Well said. The call isn’t coming from inside the MAGA house. It’s actually an international number.

Maybe he should have served the people of New York instead... 🤔

🔥 WATCH: “Republicans in Congress cut all THIS (Medicaid, SNAP) so they could pay for THAT (tax cuts for the rich)… follow the money.”

@warnock.senate.gov joins Coach Sully to use the cups to show who Republicans are really fighting for — the richest among us.

The intersection of MAGA and "Christian".

We're never going to live down the accusations that we just invade countries to steal their oil

We're falling fast.
Trump calls to hang Democrats who oppose him
US Coast guard no longer considers swastika a hate symbol
97.4% of (mostly) Latinos ICE arrested have 0 criminal record

This is what systemic white supremacy looks like. Trump is building a Nationalist Christian (Nat-C) state to violently stifle dissent.

Impeachment, the 25th, something.. come on congress, do something!
I've had a missile blow up next to my airplane, been shot at dozens of times by anti-aircraft fire, and launched into orbit — all for my country. I never thought I'd see a President call for my execution.

Trump doesn’t understand the Constitution, and we're all less safe for it.

Trump is dangerous.
A Trump supporter started murdering his way through an assassination list of Democratic law makers FIVE MONTHS AGO. He murdered my colleague Melissa Hortman, and her husband Mark — and attempted to assassinate my dear friend John Hoffman and his wife Yvette. I was also on the hit list. WTF
Insanity

The good news is Tennessee gets to vote against this guy right now. There is an election happening, polls are open for early voting, last day to vote is December 2.

If you're in Tennessee District 7, get out there and vote for Aftyn Behn, do not let this Van Epps creep win.
VAN EPPS: “I fully support ICE”

TN-7 candidate Matt Van Epps (R) makes it clear he will be a rubber stamp for Trump’s lawless masked racial profiling army currently terrorizing brown people across the country a grabbing people with no due process, including citizens

Another one? Another one!
Andrew Paul Johnson — a man Trump pardoned for storming the Capitol — has been arrested on child-molestation charges, according to Florida officials, who say he tried to use an anticipated Jan. 6 payout to silence the victim.

Interesting development...

Passed 427-1
Clay Higgins was the single no vote.

Makes you wonder why they fought the petition so vehemently.

I’m sure they figured out other shenanigans at this point to prevent the release. That’s the only reason Trump allowed them to vote yes.

This seems like a bad and undesirable outcome. We need a better system.
The top 10% of U.S. households hold 87% of all stocks, nearly 85% of private businesses, and 44% of real estate assets, per Ritholtz.
