Notice DOJ doesn't talk about its efforts to obtain state voter files anymore. They are 0-20 in those cases and today is the beginning of the quiet period -- states can no longer do systematic removals of names from the voter rolls. TLDR: We won!🥳
The simple GREED of the bully PedoFelon is what is doing it & it’s family in. The funds in those closed accounts were ALLEGEDLY moved to Deutsche Bank. The PedoFelon went after JPMorgan Chase (& BofA) earlier this year and they said no. Let’s see that discovery. Let’s watch the rats jump ship now.
An alleged pedophile promoting a book by another alleged pedophile is a professional courtesy.
This is an astounding loss for the US if it comes to fruition. One of the biggest strategic losses the US has ever endured—perhaps biggest?—and all from a war the US chose to start for no reason, illegally.
Iran and Oman have reportedly agreed that all ships transiting Hormuz have to go through an Iran-controlled corridor, and are finalizing tolls of 3, 5, or 7%. This would close off the path outside Iranian waters the US encouraged ships to use during the MOU, then started bombing again to keep open.

For a year and a half, we’ve been subject to the daily onslaught of Trump and his cruel, corrupt, and incompetent second regime. My question to you now, in the middle of the summer of our discontent, is what strategies you’re using to cope with this horror.

At the risk of ruining my mentions, I want to remind my centrist friends that “vote blue no matter who” also applies when Dems nominate a leftist. We need to be single focused on winning back the Senate. We cannot do that without Michigan.
