They don’t realize that the American dream is a dream of whiteness; and they do not understand that *they are not white.* ”I work hard, I obey the law, I am good American!” Right up until the “wakeup call.” “In this country American means white. Everybody else has to hyphenate.” -Toni Morrison

Told you. Here’s future AG Todd Blanche on a recent WH Faith Office call—tons of Christian evangelist leaders on the line. Blanche promises a NATIONAL ABORTION BAN coming soon. Then instructs them to rally their congregations to start demanding it. Right out of Project 2025. I tried to warn you‼️🇺🇸

Republicans will also introduce a nationwide abortion ban during this period; all part of the larger Project 2025 design to remake this nation into a Christian White Nationalist ethnostate. Think Handmaid’s Tale.

All eyes on Fetterman now. We already know what their game is. Collins is up for reelection & someone will provide her with a get out of jail free card.

Susan Collins announces she will vote against confirming Todd Blanche to become Attorney General. This comes after Cornyn and Tillis said they will vote to confirm him. Murkowski has not said how she would vote to confirm him. Same for Bill Cassidy.

I have carefully reviewed Todd Blanche’s qualifications to be Attorney General. This includes his record and responses to questions from Senators at the Department of Justice Appropriations hearing, his confirmation hearing, and in the weeks that followed. While I believe Mr. Blanche is a capable lawyer, the Department of Justice has become increasingly political. Mr. Blanche has taken several actions that have further eroded the Department’s independence, and that is the basis for my vote to oppose his confirmation: Mr. Blanche approved an order to shield the President, his sons, and the family business from IRS audits, protections unavailable to other American taxpayers. He approved the creation of a $1.8 billion anti-weaponization fund. He promised an anti-abortion organization that he would seek to prohibit the mailing of abortion medication to women nationwide. Under his leadership, the Department attempted to indict Senators Mark Kelly and Elissa Slotkin over their ill-advised, but constitutionally protected, videos encouraging resistance to unlawful orders. More than 1,200 former Department of Justice employees have opposed his nomination, arguing that he has undermined the institution. For these reasons, I will vote against this nomination.

These women are being held in the Brasile South Louisiana I.C.E. Processing Facility.🚨 Some have been there for months, separated from their families. One woman was recently put in solitary confinement for releasing a prior video. Multiple reports of abuse from male #ICE agents. Spread the word.

There are truly some shitty ass people in the world. The fact that this is still being done in 2026 is wild.

Depicting Jewish people with horns is a centuries-old, dehumanizing, antisemitic trope. Democratic Gov nominee Phil Weiser is outspoken about his mother’s birth in a Nazi concentration camp, his family members killed in the Holocaust, and the threat posed by antisemitism today.

🗳️ Michigan's primaries are today — but things might look a bit different for some voters. Though not unusual for the DOJ to send election monitors to observe primary voting, targeting blue cities in a key battleground is. And it raises concerns that Trump will attempt to interfere in the midterms.

Michigan election officials prepare for Trump DOJ to monitor primary elections

Local election chiefs say the Trump administration is trying to undermine trust in the election by targeting the Great Lakes State with debunked claims of voter fraud.
