Viva la Resistance And Sock le blur We are a Nation under siege by low brow, parasitical sociopaths, And entitled white supremacists longing for a new world order

This may sound corny, but seeing people come together like this actually gives me hope. There are still a hell of a lot of decent people in 🇺🇸 who give a damn. I’m dangerously close to feeling optimistic, and honestly, I’m not comfortable with it. 🤣

Groom surprised his bride by inviting her students with Down syndrome to bring the rings. because he knows they're her babies. In a world heavy with noise and hate, moments like this pull us back to what we're fighting for, love that includes, protects and celebrates every one of us. Happy tears 🥹

There it is. We are finally here. Trump has formally announced his desire to cancel a U.S. election. We said he would do this, and now he has. It doesn't matter that he probably can't. Or that he'll lose in court. The point is that we've crossed a line with respect to American democracy.

Trump: "It has just been determined Democrats illegally searched for, & recruited, a man named Dan Sullivan ... Peltola should suffer the Legal & Political consequences for A FRAUD ON THE PUBLIC, and Dan Sullivan should be allowed to run without either Peltola or FAKE Dan Sullivan on the Ballot"

Trump: "It has just been determined that the Democrats in Alaska illegally searched for, and recruited, a man named Dan Sullivan to run against our distinguished Republican Senator, Dan Sullivan, in order to defraud, confuse, and obfuscate the Election, thereby taking votes away from the REAL Senator, Dan Sullivan. The New York Times reports that, 'Democrats have insisted they have nothing to do with the other Dan Sullivan on Alaska’s Senate ballot. But aides with the Mary Peltola campaign and DSCC were part of a monthslong secret plan to recruit him to run — as well as other candidates.' The Democrats’ false statements were made under oath in Federal Court. Therefore, they perjured themselves, and should be liable for very serious consequences. Mary Peltola should suffer the Legal and Political consequences for what she has done, A FRAUD ON THE AMERICAN PUBLIC, and Dan Sullivan should be allowed to run without either Mary Peltola or FAKE Dan Sullivan on the Ballot. President DONALD J. TRUMP"

BREAKING: Texas Republicans announce they will “Pass on Paxton”: “I truly believe that he is the most corrupt politician Texas has ever seen.” “To send Ken Paxton to the Senate is adding another gator to the swamp.” “James Talarico is by far the best person in the race for the US Senate.”
