Important: House Dem leaders just said Trump's call for execution of Dems has prompted them to contact US Capitol Police and House Sergeant at Arms to "ensure the safety of these members and their families."
Treat Trump like an unhinged menace. He's weak and in deep political trouble. Don't let up.

Can we circle back to the part where the NY Times never disclosed that they have incriminating information on Donald Trump from sent by Epstein that's been sitting on their email servers for nearly a decade?
Stuff like this makes me wonder why there hasn't been any reporting about Trump having affairs during his presidencies

Democrats chalked up massive wins on Tuesday night in governor's races, with the CA ballot initiative, in the NYC mayor's race -- but some of their most astounding victories played out down lower on ballots www.huffpost.com/entry/democr...
The Wildest Democratic Wins You May Not Have Heard About
Elections for school boards and public service commissions aren’t as sexy as a governor’s race, but they matter — and Democrats swept them everywhere.

Putting the ‘Public’ Back in Public Editor.
When the NYT eliminated its Public Editor position, it said that ‘readers across the internet’ could do the same job, better. Here is what I learned from unexpectedly giving that system a try.

Still eating a Snickers. Also the NBA is culpable for turning sports into an addiction economy. This was all inevitable. Even the mafia cards games, which if you read the indictment, are connected to alleged game betting. The sharks are attacking the minnows at the behest of the whales.

Columbus bragged in letters about raping 9-year-old girls & selling them into slavery.
So of course, Trump is using him to replace Indigenous Peoples' Day,
calling Columbus the "first American hero."
Maybe he can rename it, Trump-Epstein-Columbus Day. #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles
