Appeasing Russia is just GOP orthodoxy now. American weakness is the MAGA plan.
Rewarding a dictator-aggressor always leads to another war. One that is usually even worse.

Released on this day in 1995, "The Ghost of Tom Joad" remains an album of steady voices, giving shape to the characters whose stories are often overlooked.

I think it’s basically because he has a lock, ironically, on the evangelical base which doesn’t really care about this immorality or inhumanity.
Trump pulled his support of MTG in an obvious attempt to intimidate Republicans into not voting for release of the Epstein files.
But why would anyone care if they lost the endorsement of an obvious pedophile? 😂

The lesson of the last 10 months (for those who didn’t know in 2016 or by 2020) is that character counts. Don’t throw your vote away on trash like Trump.

Funny. It seems that a lot of American voters just got in their metaphorical fighter jets and dumped a lot of brown liquid on Trumpism.

One lesson to take from tonight. Moderates can win. And, those on the left can win. Both can win big. A healthy party runs all kinds of candidates and doesn’t listen to pundits who tell it to have one strategy and only one candidate type. It will take all kinds to win the majorities America needs.

MAGA is picking Pennsylvanians’ pockets but at least Trump is redecorating his bathroom and building a ballroom. MAGA can’t govern; Trumpism is a failure.
BREAKING: Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro released $5 million in state funding for food pantries as a SNAP freeze looms on Saturday. The declaration expedites the delivery of those funds.
