I really think we (the ENTIRE world lol) need to settle on some sort of celebratory action when *it* happens. I dunno - fireworks or poppers or orange balloons or whistles or marigolds. C'mon people, let's get organised!! #IsHeDeadYet?

America should take a good example from Brazil and Serbia. The people rose up to fight for democracy and against dictatorshipβ€”and they won that fight. As a result, Donald Trumpβ€”the greatest loser in world historyβ€”became the greatest loser in world history twice in a row.

Ossoff: β€œTrump begged Putin for diesel. Meanwhile, the White House is brokering the sale of billions in Russian energy assets to people who fund the Trump family and campaign. Oil fields, refineries, and gas stations worldwide are being sold to Trump cronies in a deal backed by the US government.”

The β€œTommy” shown in this viral video from Abdul El-Sayed is a former staffer for Sen. Josh Hawley and the son of a GOP strategist. For nearly five minutes, El-Sayed questioned the man about his understanding of the Constitution and the religious freedom it affords all Americans. Simply brilliant.

Per CBS 60 Minutes: "The midterms are just two weeks away, and President Trump is using his power to intimidate the people who run our elections, putting the voting system under remarkable stress."

When JFK ran, they said the country would never elect a Catholic president. When Obama ran, they said the country would never elect a Black president. Michiganders care a lot less about how I pray than what I pray for: peace, dignity, basic goodness for all of our kids.

Ossoff: "Tech titans dig bunkers while warning us the AI they're creating risks human extinction. Meanwhile, our Congress debates youth sports and the president builds a ballroom ... I refuse to leave my girls a world as dark and dangerous and cruel as this one threatens to become"

Politicians use their office to get rich. Those days have got to end. No revolving door for lobbyists, no congressional stock trading, no corporate PAC money.

I love that this might be the thing that tanks Paxton, and not the biblical divorce or letting a child rapist out early.

🚨 WOW: WSJ reports Ken Paxton partied in a luxury Dubai high-rise with 2 FUGITIVES, Anosh Ahmed and Sameer Suhail, facing fed charges over an alleged $15 MILLION hospital embezzlement scheme β€” alongside his gf (not his wife). Ahmed donated $190K to Paxton, including $25K AFTER his indictment.

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.
