This is what happens when you elect a FASCIST. Impeach and remove TRUMP from office. Put him on trial for TREASON and give him a sentence that fits his crimes.

Greg Abbott is a lackey of Donald Trump.

He’s going against exactly what he said he would do last year.

This is the enemies list. Presidents cannot use government resources to go after their political enemies. It is an impeachable offense. This post is enough to get cases brought against any of these people thrown out. Like AG Letitia James said Faith over Fear.

Trump’s order to deploy Texas National Guard troops to Chicago is illegal, immoral, and must be stopped by the courts. ICE is already wreaking havoc in our communities. Let’s call this what it is: an invasion by out-of-state troops coming here only with the purpose of tormenting Chicagoans.

Menendez Jr: They feel no weight of the law and no restraint on what they should be doing. And that was shown in broad daylight today when they not just arrested the Mayor of Newark but when they put their hands on two members of congress standing behind me. How is this acceptable?

I personally know several Iowans who have gotten COVID in the past month.
But if you're under age 65 and don't have an underlying condition, hard to get a COVID booster here. Our governor is doing nothing to help people protect themselves or their families.
www.bleedingheartland.com/2025/10/05/m...

Many Iowans can't get COVID boosters. Kim Reynolds isn't helping

Many low-risk Iowans can't get a booster to protect themselves and their families from COVID-19. The governor denies the problem exists.

Police in Airdrie, Alberta (just north of Calgary) say this driver hit a 17-year-old girl in a marked crosswalk, got out of the vehicle, and appeared to get upset at the teenager before driving away.

They released this video and are now trying to identify the driver.
