"Fox News hosts are professional propagandists. I think they looked at Zacharia as someone who was not capable of covering for Donald Trump when he gets in trouble, someone who wouldn’t be able to lash out at the media for daring to cover him, and they helped her off stage because of that."

publicnotice.coHow Fox News whips viewers into a pre-midterm hysteria“The rhetoric is about as hot as you can get,” Matt Gertz tells us.

Trump imagining a new ocean, a third term, and an award worthy of himself. Oil topped $115, Wall Street stumbled, and a $1.2 billion startup unveiled plans to genetically engineer dogs for war. Marz and I have objections. #uspolitics #midterms open.substack.com/pub/marygedd...

open.substack.comOceans, Oil, and the Dogs of WarTrump wants a new ocean, another term, and a better trophy while oil hits $115, Wall Street wobbles, and Silicon Valley sets its sights on man's best friend.

Trump spent Friday discussing doorknobs, renaming oceans, and RFK Jr.’s physique. His DOJ is challenging election procedures in Alaska and California, and Musk’s political contributions topped $442 million. #uspolitics #midterms open.substack.com/pub/marygedd...

open.substack.comDoorknobs, Billionaires, and Ballot BoxesTrump wanders through a Florida rally while his Justice Department challenges election procedures and Elon Musk spends hundreds of millions on the midterms.

Receipts include a potential $825M golf-course tax deduction and Trump boasting, “We’re making a freaking fortune” on oil. Meanwhile, 5.5 million fewer Americans receive SNAP. Somebody’s getting rich. Somebody else is paying. #uspolitics #midterms #kakistocracy open.substack.com/pub/marygedd...

Trump says “we’re making a freaking fortune” on oil. Drivers are paying the bill. His consolation? Gas prices didn’t double or triple. From the imperial “we” to the ballot box: who profits, who belongs, and who gets to count? #uspolitics #midterms open.substack.com/pub/marygedd...

Obama: "You got the defense sec who is like a laser focused on important matters like the jawline & testosterone level of our troops, and livestreaming executions because that's how he thinks you cultivate that manly warrior spirit. How much time do you think this man spends in front of the mirror?"

Impeachment is not enough? Sure, but there will be absolutely no accountability without impeachment. Impeaching and removing Trump is a *essential* first step toward all of other goals like reestablishing the rule of law, restoring democracy and our constitutional rights.

Trump should be impeached — and real accountability will require more than impeachment.

For Mike Rogers to bring into question my commitment to the Constitution is beneath him. It's shameful. I'm proud to be an American. I'm proud of our Constitution that guarantees all of us the right to pray as we choose to pray.

Trump says Russia got “nothing” for releasing an American prisoner, then explains why he withheld sanctions. Witkoff calls Putin a “humanitarian.” Ukraine offers a ceasefire; Moscow fires missiles. Who's calling the shots? #uspolitics #midterms #kakistocracy open.substack.com/pub/marygedd...

Trump discovered that $1,775 + $1 = $1,776. The $5,000 dividend remains unfunded. Camp Lejeune families get conditional promises, fallen NATO allies get a punchline, and Ukraine gets customer support. #uspolitics #midterms open.substack.com/pub/marygedd...

Outstanding. More of this, please. Elon Musk is a white nationalist troll using the billions he made off government contracts to destroy this nation. Light. Him. Up.

Sure it did. Just like how the Trump administration sorta happened to stop sharing information with Ukraine-so they no longer get warnings about impending Russian ballistic missile attacks-and more innocent civilians die These bastards have morphed from callous thugs to full blown war criminals

“It sort of happened,” Rubio said. That’s the governing manual: announce first, find an explanation later. Starshield, Putin’s diesel, Kentucky’s promises, the pieces don’t fit. Meanwhile, Ukraine builds and No Kings protesters bring ballots. #uspolitics #midterms open.substack.com/pub/marygedd...
