📌I saw Obama speak a couple of times in the lead up to the disastrous 2024 election. He was melancholy and clearly worried. I left those speeches dragging that worry with me. The Obama I saw today in Ohio was energized, optimistic and dealing fire. I saw the finest political leader in my lifetime.

In Oregon, you can return your ballot in three ways: put it in an elections drop box, mail it in, or bring it to your county elections office. Get it in by Election Day to make sure your vote counts!

Guys, We need to win next week to give Democrats the ability to investigate this. Fuck impeachment. Charge both him and Todd Blanche in state court. He had to have been in a state when at least one of these crimes took place. And preferably a state that has a blue governor #USDemocracy
