What if Joe Biden gave Hunter & Ashley billions in government contracts & loans? The right wing would've been at the White House with pitchforks & torches! Well, Trump has given his kids $6 billion dollars in no bid government contracts & loans & Republicans are silent! VOTE #TrumpsCrimesOnYourDime

I woke up to fckery again! Frump’s Department of Revenge is targeting one of the hardest working politicians in Virginia because she fought against his fascist policies. And bc she’s a Black woman. When Black women fight fascism in this country, they are disproportionally targeted.

“Are we sleepwalking into WW III? Deadly missile attacks shut down Riyadh airport. Russian strikes on Ukraine kill more than 100 civilians across Poland warns of the danger of Russian attacks inside the EU. China begins a 6 day livefire exercise. All of these events took place over the past week.”FT

Why is the media not publicly exploring the thesis that trump is a russian asset? He’s way too stupid not to have fallen into the kremlin’s web of compromat. He’s been doing business with russian oligarchs since the 90’s. Wtf?

And for people trying to understand the Trump presidency, the deal is further proof of the accusation that Nancy Pelosi flung in Trump’s face in 2019: “With you, all roads lead to Putin.” From David Frum in the Atlantic.

TODAY is the last day to register to vote in several states. I urge you to double check your state's deadline, verify that you are registered, and make changes to your registration if needed. Then contact three friends or family members and have them do the same. https://whenweallvote.org/

“Trump described his political opponents as “vermin” and said immigrants were “poisoning the blood of our country.” When Robert Mueller died in March, Mr. Trump posted that he was “glad he’s dead.” When Rob Reiner and his wife were murdered, he blamed the killings on Reiner’s criticism of him.”

Is this the face of the thing that will save Zuckerberg? I wonder if his daughters helped inspire it? Oh no, they’ll never use Muse. It’s dangerous for children. Then why does it look so cute?

Ossoff: Did you see this business about Don Jr.‘s wedding in the Bahamas? Where he received, apparently, a cash gift from a Russian oligarch connected to the Kremlin? This man, Kremlev, was apparently in China with Putin two days before he flew to the Bahamas for Don Jr.’s wedding…

I’ll believe it when I see a bank statement! “President Trump on Friday said his eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., would pay back a Russian businessman with ties to the Kremlin who helped finance his wedding after-party in the Bahamas this year, while also defending the payments as “totally allowed.”

Legum of Popular Information reported today that Musk is funding an advertising campaign encouraging people in swing states to check their voting registration status at a different website than the one run by the Election Assistance Commission, which is an independent agency of the U.S. government.

These whistleblower allegations are extraordinary. If Trump Administration officials knowingly built a system designed to prevent Americans from receiving their ballots, that is not election security. It is a betrayal of our Constitution and the American people.

nytimes.comWhistle-Blower Says USPS Is Secretly Proceeding on Trump’s Mail Voting Plan Before MidtermsA report detailed “grave concerns” that a new system being rushed into use by the U.S. Postal Service could imperil millions of mail ballots ahead of the midterm elections.
