Yes, this public execution is about training the crowd to be even more accustomed to state-sponsored violence, and to sow just a little more hate against non-white, non-Christian people and immigrants.

Montana “Democratic” senate candidate Alani Bankhead is an opportunist and a spoiler, I would bet using her candidacy as a platform for something larger. This ridiculous WashPo op-Ed only confirms it. Bankhead will be Montana’s version of Tulsi Gabbard. 1/3

Opinion | Democrats can ask and ask. I won’t drop out of Montana’s Senate race.

The political establishment is trying to override the voters.

🎯 'A man raped her' instead of 'she was raped.' Have you ever read a headline that reads "A bank was robbed by a suspect?" Nope. It's "A suspect robbed a bank."

Immigrant New Yorkers belong here. ICE does not. If you need help, call our free, confidential Immigration Legal Support Hotline at 1-800-354-0365 or dial 311 and say “Immigration Legal.” Help is here in your native language, no matter your immigration status. More info: nyc.gov/knowyourrights

Trump doubling down on his obscene dog whistle for an act of war &/or terrorism to “take out” Los Angeles & San Diego, along with a depraved planned live stream of a firing squad execution are peak desperation by Trump/GOP! They can’t wash the stench of corruption, failure, high costs for Americans!

Who would have thought that importing 661 million pounds of beef from South America which 1) hasn’t made it significantly cheaper 2) hurts consumer confidence 3) undermines American cattle farmers/ranchers would be dumb politically?

Trump, ICE, and Republicans could not care less about human life -- this is evil. ICE will "open a child & family detention facility on an airpark in Alexandria, LA, [that will] house children & families...where contamination levels are 5,000 times higher than recommended limits." #MomSky

Trump gets asked the one obvious question, why push mail voting if it’s fraud, and answers with California and “you are fake news.” Where’s the evidence? Never there. He just dares reporters to quit asking. Don’t let it slide. Use your power. Vote. #momsky#sheshed

Most corrupt POTUS in history. Call it what it is: a pay-for-access grift. The top 185 Trump coin holders get a costly dinner, the top 4 get a gold watch, and buyers have lost an estimated $4.7 billion while Trump banks $635 million. The most corrupt meme coin dinner in history. #momsky#sheshed

Public executions are cruel and meant to intimidate the public - they’re straight from the authoritarian playbook. In this case, I suspect they also want to visually amplify the race of the shooter to further stoke anti-Muslim and anti-immigrant hate. So diabolically horrible and evil!!!

Fort Hood shooter’s execution will be live-streamed, Defense Dept. says

🚨Holy shit, brilliant animators just made a devastating ad against Republican corruption: “A massive flood of money… impacts every part of our democracy.” Trump’s corruption is putting our democracy, our rights, and our future up for sale. VOTE. #CostOfTrumpsCorruption

Lost jobs, bankrupt businesses, higher prices are just a few of the many many #CostOfTrumpsCorruption. In fact, I can't think of a single thing that Trump has done that hasn't cost us!

The pattern is simple and it is everywhere now: donate to Trump or do business with his family, and the rules stop applying to you. Skip the donation, and the rules suddenly apply with a vengeance. #CostOfTrumpsCorruption

Do you feel increasingly insecure and unsafe? That's the #CostOfTrumpsCorruption. Trump's most obvi directly responsible for making worse the checked items. Fears of government tracking data & economic collapse jumped the most. These problems are real, the fear is warranted!

What better proof of our lost standing in the world than the EU parliament installing this golden statue of Trump crushing the man below him ? The US has gone from the Shining City on the Hill to a tragic joke destablizing the world economy & security. #CostOfTrumpsCorruption

Remember when they promised to root out waste, fraud and abuse? Turns out they just had to look in the mirror. Over $1.8 billion on vanity projects while your groceries, rent and health care keep getting pricier. Want to cut the waste? Vote early and send a message. #momsky#sheshed

I am hopeful that years from now the jurisprudence of Samuel Alito is pushed to the same corners as Plessy and Korematsu. His notion that “religious freedom” requires elevating a brand of Christianity above criticism turns the First Amendment on its head. abcnews.com/Politics/thr...
