In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Send me a copy Lindsey. I'm a retired Army JAG with 29 years of service. Killings civilians in boats because you suspect them of running drugs is murder and an unlawful order. I will advise any service members that they should refuse. And I'll defend them proudly in any court martial. And I'll win.

The Biden administration DID have an open and ongoing investigation into Epstein coconspirators. Trump shut it down, fired the prosecutors, and stole the files.

As Republicans blame Dems for a broken health care system, this is the thing to keep in mind.
The ACA made a bad system less bad. Republicans only have ideas to make it worse. (Hence the McCain vote)
The real answer is #MedicareForAllNOW

There are four leaks to plug for Trump: the survivors, Ghislaine Maxwell, the Epstein Estate, and the 1000+ FBI and DoJ employees he locked in a building and forced to remove his name from the files.
Good luck, asshole.

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

I got back to my office after the vote last night and recorded this. There's no way to sugarcoat what happened. And my fear is that Trump gets stronger, not weaker, because of this acquiescence. I'm angry - like you. But I choose to keep fighting.

Let me put this as simply as possible: If the 60 Minutes editorial team cuts out most of their interview with Trump to make him look his best, and he still comes across as completely demented, then it is extremely likely that Trump actually is completely demented.

When I explain that boycotting an election over an issue has never once forced a politician to embrace that issue, I'm not "scolding people to vote." I'm explaining reality.
Feel free to sit on your ass! Just don't pretend that your lazy apathy is somehow going to advance your agenda.
