What are we to make of his aggressive turn into sexually harassing men? It’s a real head scratcher.
Trump on Ossoff: "I don't think he's a good looking man. I actually think Mike Collins is a good looking man. And he's all man. I'm not sure about Ossoff. And I think Rick Jackson is a beautiful-looking guy."

This week the Trump administration ran a 30-second campaign spot on Fox News and Newsmax, labeled "Paid for by the U.S. Government." This kind of propaganda using taxpayer dollars is unacceptable and very likely illegal.

This will make it nearly impossible to file habeas petitions, because attorneys won’t even know what federal district their client has been moved to to stage for their removal. Something like a third of all people in ICE custody. apnews.com/article/ice-...

Dems should run this as an ad, and then remind people that Republicans control all of government and could do this right now if they wanted to. But they don't. And these checks will never come.
@thebulwark.com did a supercut of all the prior times Trump said he was going to give Americans a $5000 check or whatever. It is glorious

94-98% seems fair for the top .01% There is zero quality of life gains between 10billion dollars and one trillion dollars. That money can however end homelessness, feed the hungry, provide free healthcare, free education etc. I mean at this point its huge tax hikes or guillotines. Take your pick.

A former campaign manager for Ross told law enforcement officers that Ross provided him with a black nylon glove that contained a small, plastic bag of white powder and a pink and white capsule, telling him to place it in Secker’s purse or vehicle while Ross was out of state on vacation. Missouri.🙄
Republican Thomas Ross, 37, is accused of asking a campaign manager to plant a small amount of cocaine and a prescription amphetamine pill on his opponent, Louise Secker, in the weeks leading up to the Aug. 4 primary, according to court documents.
