The GOP is desperate. When I went to vote in Arkansas I had to sign a statement saying I'm not voting illegally and also the names on the ballet are preceded by the party association. All this assumes I can read. Is Alaska so different? I doubt it. www.cnbc.com/2026/10/23/a...

cnbc.comTrump says he ordered DOJ suit to block Alaska Senate race certification if Republican loses: 'I'm the one that said 'do it''There are two Dan Sullivans on the ballot in the Senate race in Alaska. The DOJ says that fact could help Democratic nominee Mary Peltola defeat both of them.

Russia is now exempt from the Lindsey O. Graham Russia Sanctions Act. The US government is clearly allied with Putin against Ukraine. Vote Republican enablers out.

Some voters will be fooled. As they say, you can't fix stupid. However, most of us see their desperation and need to call it out. They could have lessened the damage done to our country.

Republicans do not get to call it courage when they distance themselves from Trump only after the polls turn bad. Courage would have been refusing to enable him when it cost something. This is not a moral awakening. It is a campaign calculation. November is coming!

So trump blocked journalists from the White House AFTER a judge ordered him to restore their access. It's not like he doesn't have a history of doing this sort of thing. Still waiting for consequences though.

Restricting press access while creating a government-run 24/7 “Trump TV” is an attack on a free press. In my view, this is straight from the authoritarian playbook: discredit independent journalism, restrict its access, then replace it with government-controlled messaging. Goebbels would love it.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media. Airlines have merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

That's fine. A fortress can often become a prison. We can pick another city to run the country from while we starve the leach out.

You do understand that everything he's doing to Washington DC is about fortifying the city when he decides he's not leaving office

Just a reminder that it was a DEMOCRAT led administration that slow walked his prosecution. Of course I'm never voting for Nazis (GOP) but how do we insure the Democratic party has a spine this time?

No shit. We could have avoided all of this chaos and fuckery if our government had done the right thing. Now we all get to suffer since the MAGA GOP has no balls or patriotism.

📌Now that you soft-ballers in the press FINALLY understand this felon is playing hardball, it's time for you to band together and refuse to cover the WH. Start calling it the way WE see it. The way it IS: A lawless regime hellbent on destroying this country. Get your heads out of your asses.

I wish I could afford electric, but I do drive small cars, so while I will also feel pain... It will still bring a smile to my face when the yahoos in this red state go to fill up their beastly trucks! Have what you voted for MAGAts!
