The Washington Post says 22 million people are set to lose healthcare subsidies by the end of the year with 80 percent of them living in states Trump won. Talk about reaping what you sow. #ProudBlue

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

This is a very interesting and truthful (IMHO) article. It's time for Europe to unite, comprehesively.

I love historical comparisons

Europe today finds itself caught in a strategic dilemma reminiscent of the Peloponnesian War of the fifth century BC. Led by Pericles

#HealingHearts

Going through healing from trauma or abuse doesn't feel good. It's not pleasant. Confusion, doubt, even fear are among the many feelings.

Why do it? You deserve a life free from the fallout of trauma. You deserve to be free. Keep going.

Convicted Felon Donald Trump is interfering in an election, & threatening a country if the election doesn’t go his way.

Open your eyes & grow a spine, Republicans. This mob boss needs to be removed, arrested, convicted (again) & jailed.

Some Young Republicans had their "I Love Hitler" group chat leaked. Only one person in that text thread has been fired.

Convicted Felon Donald Trump has said nothing about the texts, probably because he agrees with them.

Veiled threats: Speaking to a gaggle of reporters on Air Force One after departing Egypt Tuesday, Trump asked, “How’s Karoline doing? Is she doing good? Should Karoline be replaced?” It's getting very Caligula in the White House. newrepublic.com/post/201729/...

Why Would Trump Say This About Karoline Leavitt?

Donald Trump just gave Karoline Leavitt the weirdest compliment imaginable.
