I look forward to the day when we once again do not have to identify federal court judges by which president appointed them. Another low bar that Donald Trump has infected our country with.

Aside from the fact that property taxes are state taxes, Trump is ticking up his already almost perpetual stream of lies to capture the any vote by any means necessary. They don;t care how stupid these statements make them look if it gets the stupid ones to the polls.

Someone brilliant recently said, "Companies are annoyed they have to go through you to get your money."

And I think Dems are the same way.
The DNC/Dem leadership is annoyed they have to appeal to voters to get our votes. They think they're entitled to our votes simply by being "not the GOP."

The mass censorship this administration is doing is happening in big ways (Colbert) + countless medium and small ways that many people are not allowed to say because their employer has forbidden them; they won’t risk losing their job to speak up. There are lists of forbidden words & images.

And what the fuck would these ruthless criminals know about "sensitive nature"?

The left-over MAGAts prove themselves to be increasingly ignorant... such suckers and fools.

That's not the way it works. Again, it's a political move with midterms not based on any sort of financial or legal reality.

"When Lewandowski was told Noem's personal items had been left behind, including a heated blanket, he yelled at Coast Guard staff

The pilot came out of cockpit to see what was happening & Lewandowski insisted plane return to collect Noem's items

When he refused, Lewandowski announced he was fired"
Noem's use of Coast Guard resources strains her relationship with the military branch, sources say
Some early decisions by the homeland security secretary, including to divert Coast Guard resources from a search and rescue mission to the deportation of immigrants, set the tone early.

Stephen Colbert says he was told by CBS lawyers "in no uncertain terms" that he could not have Texas State Rep. James Talarico on his program.

"Because my network clearly doesn't want us to talk about this, let's talk about this."

Trump has no memory of endorsing someone to fill Marge’s seat — which he did two weeks ago 🤷🏼

Can’t wait to read @jaketapper’s book about this!

Colbert posted the interview online. I do wonder if CBS and the FCC are aware of the Streisand effect? The interview has been up for 8 hours and has just over half a million views.

They had to get rid of the ones who might speak. And smut films were made.

This thing is so fucking deep.

It's disgusting that so many women were killed or suffer for their entire lives, so their sick AF attackers can live lives of luxury and fame.

Keep pushing hard for the remaining files.
