Hey I think it's great that all these news outlets are refusing to sign Pete's Propaganda Agreement, but they aren't heroes.

They helped bring us here.

And until they're ready to help us leave here by telling the truth about the failing rapist felon, who the fuck cares what they will & won't sign?

Democrats want to play it safe in Maine’s white-hot Senate race. That’s a mistake.

An absurd amount of energy is spent trying to avoid primaries, when, in fact, Democrats should want more of them.

There is no place for partisan political videos from the govt being blasted in airports attacking the opposition party. That is what authoritarian regimes do. This should not be a partisan issue - it is fundamentally un-American.
