Let’s be brutally honest about Donald Trump Jr.: he isn’t a businessman, a "patriot," or even a person—he is a human parasite that has attached itself to the jugular of American democracy and refused to let go. It’s a textbook definition of treasonous nepotism dressed up as success.

Here’s your daily reminder that when you go to cast your ballot in November please vote all the way down the ballot. The further down you go, those races really do get closer to your front door and ultimately your wallet. Let’s turn these laboratories of autocracy back into democracy.

Ron and Cassie DeSantis: These two crooks stole $10 million from a settlement with a charity, wired it to Cassie’s fake “charity,” laundered it through two puppet organizations, and then used it for political ads in an election year. They should be in jail.

This is brutality, not policing. He wasn’t the driver. He didn’t lead police on a 130 MPH chase. He was opening the door to get out when the trooper smashed the window, grabbed him by his locks, punched him, and dragged him by his hair. Watch the video, decide for yourself.

The irony is that Donald Trump has so little self-awareness he is oblivious to the fact that he has *never* be thought of as a nice guy. He went to the movies instead of visiting his dying brother in the hospital. He abondoned his pre-teen kids. He raped his first wife. And cheated on ALL of them.

I hope it’s clear to everyone who cares about the survival of our democracy that we need massive turnout and landslide margins to counteract the lies and cries of fraud that are coming after the midterm vote.

Much worse than an idiot. I believe that a more accurate litany is coward, fool, thief, liar, would be tyrant.

63 years later to the day, and the fight for equal rights is still very much unfinished. A new generation. Same responsibility. Keep marching. Keep fighting. ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼

. The people of the original 13 states of the USA were fearful of a hateful demagogue rising one day to rule over them. They invented a Congress and Judiciary to check gross overreach of a tyrannical criminal Executive. In cowardice and self-interest, both have abandoned that sacred role. .

I’m not sure how to convey this succinctly to legacy media who continues to go to Manchin for his opinion. But let me try: No one, and I mean no one, gives a fuck what Joe Manchin thinks about anything.
