The alleged security breaches by John Bolton remind me of security breaches by another ex-government official who kept classified records in his bathroom and evaded justice with the help of a corrupt MAGA judge in Florida.

Find a No Kings 2 protest near you on 10/18 and let Trump and his band of fascist thugs know that we will not be silenced!

AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

I don't care if you're a Democrat, a Republican, an Independent, or a whatever, but you cannot be okay with Trump sending $40 billion dollars to Argentina, while there's a Republican Government Shutdown and while our Economy is in turmoil. America First My Ass!!!

Now I wonder if TIME wanted Trump viewed from this angle on purpose. Deborah who is professional film maker takes note of this photograph that shows absolutely no scar tissue visible on Trump’s ear where he claims to have been shot. More evidence this was an outright lie!

A devastating flood tore through Kipnuk; five months earlier, federal funding meant to help the village withstand disasters was abruptly cut. Lee Zeldin revoked the grant, citing a new push to eliminate what he called “wasteful DEI grants.”

Many of the chat members already work inside government or party politics, and one serves as a state senator. And Samuel Douglass, a state senator from northern Vermont is also the head of the state’s Young Republicans!

Why doesn't the GOP care?
