This is the way.
Imagine if @aoc @sanders.senate.gov , every dem, SIMULTANEOUSLY held Town Halls where they allowed grant and contract recipients to explain to the country what it is they do and why it's important

Invite all media. Including RW podcasters. @spaces Flood the zone

Data released on "drop-off" votes shows that if excess Republican drop-off votes are due to manipulation/invalid,
5/6 swing states go to VP Harris, who wins the election.

But we must look at the actual ballots to prove it. #ForensicAudit

Jimmy Carter pardoned his brother Billy Carter who took over $200,000 from Libya as its foreign agent.

George H.W. Bush pardoned his son Neil Bush for his role in the S&L scandals of the 1980s.

Nobody thinks those pardons defined either presidency.

Joe Biden's pardon of Hunter Biden won't either.

Watching my team Fiorentina today against Inter. Edoardo Bove (on loan from Roma) collapsed today during the match with Inter. Game suspended. Players in tears. We lost our GM Joe Barone last March. Bove is only 22. 🙏🏻 www.nbcsports.com/soccer/news/...

Same as with Bezos:

'Won't Get Fooled Again'
The challenge before us as a people is not to ‘Make America Great Again’ - or help Trump implement the Christofascist ideology and theocratic inclinations of ‘America First’.

To people talking about 2026: Virginia is voting next year and often seen as a bellwether. We voted Obama twice, Clinton, Biden, Harris but we have a dumbass for governor. I will be working for Abigail Spanberger for Gov. and my friend Ghazala Hashmi for Lt Gov. I will post on this throughout 2025.

As you shop today for those Black Friday deals, here’s an issue that should piss off ALL of us: Visa & Mastercard’s duopoly on credit card swipe fees is costing retailers & consumers billions. That’s gotta end. And the Credit Card Competition Act (CCCA) will end it.👇 nhjournal.com/millard-cons...

We were today years old when we learned the founder of @CoreCivic/private prisons was a chair of the Tennessee Republican Party.

Boy does that make sense.

They run 4 prisons here even though state law allows for just 1. Now their CEO Damon Hininger now wants to be governor.
