We all need to be getting our minds right about what we'll do if Trump and his fellow MAGA fascists steal or cancel the midterms.

Every State that trump accuses of voter fraud and cheating needs to immediately file a lawsuit against him personally and make him prove it. Sue for Billions, you know, like he does. Like he just sued our Government for 10 Billion.

People like Donald get worse if they’re allowed to. His disgusting racism is increasingly blatant and dangerous because the Republicans, with their silence, encourage it. They are complicit in every awful thing they allow their hideous leader to do.

The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023. The Cato study provides the first-ever 30-year analysis of the fiscal effects of immigration on government budgets. https://ow.ly/jy8a50Y8kM3

I get called radical because I want affordable housing and rational, compassionate immigration policy and gun reform that helps keep kids safe. Radicals like me are never going to kill people for our ideology because that’s literally not our ideology.

There is literally no Western politician alive that I can think of that has incited more hate, bigotry, and violence than Donald Trump. That so many in our public life, in our 'liberal' media, have just memory-holed 10 years of nonstop incitement and abuse from him is shameful.

I dare you to go to Annunciation School and tell our grieving community, in effect, guns don’t kill kids, antidepressants do. Just shut up. Stop peddling bullshit. You should be fired.

Donald Trump has committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era. Almost everything he said—on history, economics and the technicalities of trade—was utterly deluded econ.st/3YbbFjq

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.
