Itβs bad. Ukraine is still effectively hitting both inside Russia and occupied Crimea almost daily, but Putin (as usual) is targeting population centers instead of legitimate military targets.
Every single Republican candidate for governor of Minnesota (including Mike Lindell!) makes clear that if Trump tried another Operation Metro Surge in the Twin Cities, they would support his efforts to brutalize residents

Seems like a bad sign for AIPAC that here In Tennessee even Republican candidates for governor want to ride the anti-AIPAC wave Worth noting: Fritts is an extremist who wants to unconstitutionally ban Islam, have women/men/docs potentially face the π penalty for abortions, etc
Talaricoβs 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.

This is why this is not just about Max Miller. Itβs about βdevout Christianβ House Republican leadership who is standing with this guy because they crave power above all else. Itβs the culture of MAGA and it comes straight from Trump. Vote them out.
ICYMI: In a win for voters, a federal judge blocked Trumpβs recent ban on nonpartisan groups helping newly naturalized citizens register to vote. The court found the ban was likely driven by intentional discrimination against new citizens. https://demdock.com/4xeEjiG

A reminder: when Zelenskyy offered to share Ukraineβs anti-drone expertise with the US back in March, Trump said he was βthe last person we need help fromβ. Trumps assessment was arrogant and naΓ―ve. Ukrainian companies are world leaders in drone production and innovation.
