The federal government has no right to tell any state not to certify their winners and the people in Congress have no right to hold up seating any newly elected Congress people. #USDemocracy

All true. Is it a failure of Dems to bring it up when he declared candidacy? failure of the then DOJ? Failure of a public overcome by his personality? Too late now. He's now clearly incapable, his dementia clear to the whole world. History won't be kind to those who fail to act now. #ProudBlue

White House Officials: Sir, we're getting crushed. The polls are grim. The early voting data is even worse. What can we do to win over the American people in this final week? Trump: Charge Comey again!

So basically someone told Trump today what Cheesecake Factory was, and it probably took a little while to explain to him that they aren’t local factories that make cheesecakes. But he probably still isn’t quite sure what they are.

Thank God the courts are pushing back! Our firewall. 🚨 A federal appeals court just rejected Trump’s emergency attempt to set aside 20,000 California mail-in ballots.

Per a new report from House Democrats, Trump's DOJ is withholding evidence of his ties to Epstein and slow-walking the complete release of the Epstein files. It's time to end the cover-up and expose the truth. Remember this when you cast your ballot. www.ms.now/news/house-j...

ms.nowHouse Judiciary Democrats release 50-page report on Trump’s alleged involvement in Epstein filesThe report — issued just eight days before the election — makes multiple, uncorroborated allegations against the president while also detailing discrepancies in his statements about Epstein.

Donald Trump saying Barack Obama isn't a smart guy will be in heavy contention for 2026's Least Self-Aware Remark.

Trump is BIG MAD about Obama saying the White House now looks like Saddam opened a Cheesecake Factory: "He's not a smart guy. He's not smart at all ... for you to say it's a Cheesecake Factory, that just shows why you were a lousy president"

Republicans are being forced to fight for their survival. And Jeffries isn’t just talking about taking back the House, he’s putting Republicans on notice: Their voter suppression playbook won’t save them from the electoral reckoning headed their way. That’s how big this blue wave could get. 🔥

Trump’s DOJ has charged James Comey AGAIN, this time under the Espionage Act over a 2016 New York Times story. In DOJ’s own words, Comey had staff talk to a reporter to “correct misinformation” in a Reuters article.

MeidasTouch@meidastouch.com

Comey: Well, they're back again. It would almost be funny if it weren't such an appalling abuse of the DOJ. One that we cannot become numb to. Nothing's changed with me. I'm still innocent. I'm still not afraid of these people. And I still believe in the independent federal judiciary.

ICE thugs are sending immigrants to countries that they have never been to, because there are orders by judges protecting them from being returned to their home country due to persecution. But these third party countries are sending them back to their home country, anyway. #ICELawlessness
