The Miracle On Ice team was a bunch of amateurs playing for a democracy against professionals playing for a country hated for its desire for world domination and disregard for human rights. Now the USA is the latter.

To end Trump(ism), the anti-Trump(ism) coalition will need many 2024 Trump voters. Welcome them.

What are the chances the current administration will participate in the peaceful transition of power at the end of this term if the Democrats win the 2028 POTUS election? What are the chances we'll have free and fair elections in 2028? 2026??? Take nothing for granted.

TGIF! We made it to Friday of the first week of Trump II
Trump hit the ground running working on his two life-long priorities:

1. Accumulation of personal wealth and power
2. Vengeance for his personal grievances

Biden is saying he'd have defeated Trump had he run again, but he isn't sure that he'd be able to finish his second term. Dude, I'm not sure you're going to be able to finish out your first term and it ends on Monday.

Donald Trump wants you to believe that he is all powerful and that if you fight back you will lose.

He wants you to believe that if you fight back you face danger.

It is time for us to build not a temporary resistance but a long term opposition.

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.

At least 350 transgender and gender-diverse people have been murdered over the past year, according to the Trans Murder Monitoring Project.

This Trans Day of Remembrance should serve as a rallying cry for vigilance, protection, and action.

I dunno but this part seems important:

Matt Gaetz “has been accused of trafficking and having sex with a 17-year-old girl at a drug-fueled party in 2017. Gaetz’s friend Joel Greenberg has already confessed to having sex with the underage victim and claimed that Gaetz paid him to bring her.”
