An addled president is shredding the Constitution to usher in white nationalism and fascism while destroying the economy and our health care, so if you’re going to write an alarmist op-ed because a mayoral candidate might open five (5) city-run grocery stores, you can kindly get bent.

“This does not just affect North Carolina,” Riggs said. “This is like dropping a match in a really dry forest. And if we let this kind of anti-democratic effort take hold, we will not be able to contain it. So this is a fight for the very soul of democracy. Today’s decision was deeply misinformed.”

Now, the USPS is preparing to push back as Trump moves to dissolve its leadership and bring the independent agency under his administration’s control. America, this cannot be allowed—protecting the USPS is essential.
Please share this and call Congress.

The article reported that a former senior Soviet KGB spy chief claimed Donald Trump was recruited as a spy by Russian intelligence 38 years ago and given the codename “Krasnov.”
We are not confirming its validity, only pointing out the unusual nature of its disappearance.

They’re right. . . It’s the American oligarchy.
I, like many of you, have been contemplating our predicament since election night.
We are in a losing war for our democracy and I'm not sure we collectively know who our true adversary is.
It's not the voting blocks...white women, Latinos, Gen X. It's not MAGA. It's not even Trump.

This should go without saying, but it's okay if someone you don't agree with goes on a certain show or podcast. It's okay to be exposed to dissenting opinions. It's okay to feel uncomfortable. The biggest danger for the Democratic Party moving forward is the imposition of ideological purity tests.

I’ve noticed some accounts trying really hard to bring their trolling enterprise over here from Elon’s hive. Just know they need engagement to thrive. Blocking and reporting promptly are better ways to keep this joint classy and civil. ✌🏿

I served as a US ambassador and know hundreds of others
Never met one before who hired a prostitute to seduce their brother-in-law or sent a videotape of the encounter to their sister
Or who committed 18 felonies & was pardoned by another in-law
I guess the job qualifications are changing…
