This week is going to be stupid. Next week will be worse, and the week after that even worse..., and then we will have elections. The days after that, it'll be so bad that we will miss these days.

It’s corruption on steroids in plain sight. He doesn’t even try to hide that he’s looting US and cashing in on insider trading. He’s the most corrupt president in American history.

This week someone targeted my family for harm with a false report. We’re physically OK, but that doesn’t mean we weren’t harmed. I am beyond furious. Whatever your politics, this is awful, wrong, and can never become normal.

😱😱😱 And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media. A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children. Lets make this viral again 👇

1/6 I have to laugh a bit when I hear people call Sanders a "Socialist." Mainly because they have no idea what Socialism is and think of Russia. That's Marxism-Leninism Socialism; it all belongs to the government. Then there is another reality that the American people don't seem to understand:

Corporations spend more than $1.5 billion a year on union-busting. That’s $1.5 billion they could have spent on higher wages, better benefits, and improving workplace safety. Remember: if they weren’t so scared of worker power, they wouldn’t fight so hard against unions.

Yesterday, a new generation of civil rights activists marched from Selma to Montgomery to fight for voting rights. As states across the country try to make it harder for citizens to be heard, we need to learn the lessons of those who came before us and refuse to take our democracy for granted.

Are you f'ng kidding me. Grandpa was gently led to the nursing home when he finally lost touch with reality not continuing as president.

This is utterly batshit crazy. FFS it's way past the time of some 25th amendment. He belongs in some mental institution babbling away every day. Absolutely he is projecting. His every accusation is a confession. Thank you for your attention to this matter, LOL!!
