😃Al Sayad’s victory in Detroit, Michigan has the GOP in panic mode. Not for his policies or ideology, but because he beat a fellow Dem candidate with a $66 million wallet. These types of victories is how we get dark money out of elections. #Pinks #DemVoice1 www.rawstory.com/trump-267766...

Is this what you call being good on the economy? Manufacturing jobs are down, trade deficit is higher, and investments in US manufacturing capacity are in a free fall. Exactly what kind of “economic boom” leads to the loss of US ingenuity? rethinktrade.org/trumptradema...

When generals start emailing the ranks…begging for “creative and unconventional” ideas, you’ve moved past confidence …and into desperation. That’s not the sound of a winning strategy. It’s the sound of leaders…searching for an exit.

If you don’t pay taxes, you face consequences. That’s how our system works. But not for Trump. Trump forced his nominee for Attorney General to promise to make him immune from any tax crimes Trump may have committed.

Good morning ☕

Missouri lawmakers tried to rig democracy. Voters torched the plan. Amendment 4 would’ve forced ballot initiatives to win in all 8 congressional districts, a rigged system designed to kill citizen power. They said no. Hard. Power to the people. Keep the momentum going into November!

Why do we bother obeying the law and paying our taxes when the President does neither? He is playing us all for fools!

We must pay attention to the details of the deconstruction of justice & democracy & educate others. Trump fired over 100 immigration judges. That might sound mundane. But there's a 4 million case backlog & 12 immigration courts lost 1/2 their immigration judges & 2 lost all full-time judges!🧵

Hey, get in line behind *millions* of people, including Native Americans driven from their land and slaughtered, kidnapped Africans who were enslaved and lynched, women treated like property, LGBTQ people demeaned and treated like they didn’t matter, you crybaby, self-indulgent loser.

FYI: Blanche rescinded the ORDER establishing the slush fund, not the underlying “settlement.” The settlement says any changes must be agreed to by ALL parties, not just Todd. This “rescission” isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on.

The coming lies. I have written about LLM grooming - the process where large language models are intentionally poisoned with lies & disinfo.

This week, Newsmax — a far-right news organization with a strong allegiance to President Trump and a history of pushing wild conspiracy theories — announced it had struck a deal with Meta.

Yes. The underlying “settlement” ordering the fund is still in tact and can only be rescinded by all parties - not just Blanche.

Yes but the MSM is falling for it

Excuse my ignorance, but if Todd Blanche is confirmed, couldn’t he just issue a new memo under a slightly different framework that still gives Trump the slush fund and the immunity he wanted? We can’t trust these people.
