Truly evil to see MAGA lunatics and white supremacists issuing death threats to the mother of Nolan Wells in an effort to silence her and stop her from finding out why her 18 year old son is dead.

I don’t think the BBC cares to throw the convicted felon & pedophile in chief a lifeline. I’m happy as hell just knowing he’s freaking tf out! 😊

JUST IN: Convicted Felon Donald Trump is scrambling on an emergency basis to try to convince a federal judge to block production to the BBC of financial documents for more than 400 of his business entities

And instead of handing billions to the black market, invest that tax revenue in Texas communities. I agree with every bit of this…

Texans have a chance to elect this man who has ALL of your own BEST interests! Come on Y’all 🤠

Talarico’s argument is simple: Stop treating marijuana like a crime. Legalize it. Regulate it. Tax it. Stop wasting police resources on low-level marijuana offenses. Clear the records of people whose lives have been derailed by nonviolent marijuana convictions.

God bless my nerdy kids watching the election results. Lol. Tear of pride.

In no way, shape, or form does any thinking adult trust Todd Blanche. The Senate must refuse to confirm him.

Two wins for abortion rights: Voters in Kansas and Missouri easily defeated ballot measures that could have threatened abortion access in their states

The AP hasn't called either contest yet, but Missouri's Amendment 4 is losing 82-18 statewide and failing in every county with 10% of votes reporting so far. Kansas' Amendment 1 is losing 71-29 and getting crushed in numerous Trump counties with 26% of votes in. These look over

🚨BREAKING: Missouri voters defeated a GOP bid to limit their ability to amend the state constitution. The measure was the GOP's attempt to diminish the power of voters who’ve used citizen initiatives to expand Medicaid and protect abortion access.

Missouri voters reject ballot measure limiting their power to amend state constitution

Notably, the proposed amendment would not have affected constitutional amendments that the legislature put on the ballot. State lawmakers only wanted to make it harder to pass a voter-led measure,…

So now the next step is to find out what Capital One's months-long anti-money laundering review by professionals with decades of law enforcement experience discovered about Trump's 300+ accounts...

Phang: "Capital One said, 'We don't want the business anymore of the 45th president of the United States, his businesses, his failed sons, and his revocable trust.' So you can imagine -- I am just hypothesizing... but it suggests whatever Capital One uncovered was pretty bad. Makes you wonder..."

the ragnarok lobster guy deleted all his posts about how haley stevens was gonna win. that’s how cold politics is. ragnarok lobster is abandoning you before the polls even close

If you think Democrats taking back the senate is out of reach because El-Sayed is winning the Michigan primary, I don't know what to tell you. There is no planet where someone as odd/off-putting as Stephens was the more electable of the two.

The Rapepublicans set it up to make more cuts after the midterms so that their senior voters don’t realize they passed this crap last year in their Big Fugly Bill! They figured if Dems took back the House, as history suggests, the Dems would get the blame.

Your mom's Medicare Advantage dental coverage? Republicans just voted to cut it. Her hearing aids? Gone. Her vision benefits? Slashed. The Big Ugly Bill hits January 1st. We must vote Republicans out of Congress in November.

A major bank closing 300 Trump bank accounts because they were flagged for potential money laundering should be a far bigger story…

🚨BREAKING: Colorado Federal Court DISMISSES Department of Justice lawsuit to provide access to complete statewide voter registration database. Another victory for Elias Law Group and our clients. DOJ is now 0-20 in these cases. ELG is undefeated. www.democracydocket.com/cases/colora...

🔥 Here's Whitehouse's entire remarkable speech opposing Blanche: "What's left of this committee when we don't demand straight answers? How many times has DOJ been asked what became of the $50k that the FBI reported it handed to Homan? ... our R colleagues see no evil, hear no evil, & speak no evil."

Whitehouse on Blanche: "Today is a sad and embarrassing day"

I can remember in 2008 the sense of how the arrival of a better America would accompany this man's election. I still believe his message of hope is the right one. It is a strategy. Happy birthday, Mr President!
