Pres. Obama keying into the blatant corruption on all voters' minds,💰 and that Republicans have done/will do nothing to stop it, leaves all Americans no choice but to vote for Democrats - - even if some must hold their noses. That message and video should play round the clock for the next week. 🗳️⚖️🇺🇸

this is total gobbledygook? the process to decide who should be certified as the winner is the election, and there is no federal law that says the courts get to decide who that is.
Blanche on CBS says his suit against Alaska is "asking the court to step in where the Alaska Supreme Court didn't, which is to look at federal law and if necessary to allow a process for Alaska to decide who should be certified as the winner." (So, the voters won't get to decide. Got it.)
"If you're not rich, you don't count...we've lost touch with what is really important in our lives...we also have got to re-find our north star...kindness, compassion...tired of anger, division...we're not gonna get outta this overnight...It's hard to stop change when its time has come❕" Pres. Obama

"'As a former president, I can tell you sometimes factors beyond a president’s control end up foiling the best-laid plans,' Mr. Obama said. But, he added: 'That is not the case here. In this case, this administration’s actions are directly responsible for rising costs.'" 🗳️⚖️🇺🇸❕

"So which will it be? A pre-Christmas dismissal or a deposition? My money is against Trump sitting down to be grilled by opposing lawyers." Dismissal! Every seasoned court reporter in NYC has sworn Trump in at a deposition. He always tried to control the proceedings. Bravo, BBC. Keep pushing. ⚖️
The BBC is doing something important, refusing to be intimidated by a powerful person trying to use the legal system to punish criticism and discourage scrutiny. They’re schooling the American press on what the 1st Amendment means. Read about it here: joycevance.substack.com/p/the-bbc-st...

He is remarkably consistent in supporting alleged perpetrators and enablers of sexual violence and attacking their victims
Trump: "Ramaswamy put up a very powerful Ad about a mother saying that her daughter, Acton, is a liar, and much worse. The Press is trying to get him to 'take down the Ad.' Frankly, anybody whose mother spoke about daughter that way would normally lead to the daughter being precluded from serving"

"'Hegseth is no Ike. The globe won’t give him Ike’s attributes of humility, intellect and judgment,' Seidule said."
Pete Hegseth wanted Dwight Eisenhower's globe for his office. His staff broke it. Photos obtained by The Post show a gash in the World War II-era artifact that resulted from a botched relocation attempt inside the Pentagon.
