Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.
Conservative Washington Examiner column confirms it: "TRUMP IS LOSING HIS MIND"
Thank you, Virginia, for understanding the assignment!
Sincerely,
Sane Americans

Starting a mid-decade redistricting war only to end up with -1 seats is the same fine strategic genius and subtle grasp of game theory that brough us the Strait of Hormuz.
I’m having deja vu…Around 2001 Hugo Chávez seized control of Venezuelan museums and cultural institutions, the expert staff was replaced with Chavista loyalists, art was focused on Chavista, nationalist propaganda. And lot’s of valuable art was stolen. Oh and Chavez was a narcissist too.
Judge schedules potentially pivotal hearing for April 28 in legal challenge against Trump’s plan to shutter & renovate Kennedy Center
Judge orders attorneys for plaintiff, Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-OH) & Trump attorneys to be ready to tackle wide range of issues in the case by then
Will the cruelty never end? These are the folks who risked their lives and their families to help our troops in Afghanistan. Is this how we thank them? And future wars? Forget it.
Afghan veterans need to stand up for these people & stand up to Trump & Stephen Miller.

Ford’s move into the Middle East comes after it set a record on Wednesday with 296 days on deployment. That broke the post-Vietnam War carrier deployment record of 295 days held by USS Abraham Lincoln. Ford departed its homeport in Norfolk, Va., in late June for a routine deployment to Europe. Since then, the carrier has operated in the Mediterranean, Caribbean and Red seas. It likely will go into a record-breaking 11th month of operations, the Navy’s top official has said. This is at least the second time Ford has been on duty in the Middle East during its current deployment. In early March, Ford entered the Red Sea, continuing its role in Operation Epic Fury, the joint U.S.-Israel campaign against Iran. On March 12, a fire broke out in the ship’s main laundry areas, causing damage to multiple compartments and displacing some 600 personnel. Three sailors suffered injuries that were not life-threatening.
Btw, the USS Ford set a record for longest post-Vietnam (which Trump could have won) deployment last week. I'm sure that has nothing to do with its toilet problem or laundry fire.
These sailors have been away from home since June.

President Putin's current FBI director Kash Patel, who is now persecuting former CIA Director Brennan, was paid $25,000 by film maker Igor Lopatonok, a duel Russian-US national. Lopatonok's previous projects include a pro-Russian influence campaign that received money from a fund created by Putin.
It is almost like the Trump administration has no idea what it is doing, beyond enriching itself of course…

I am begging every Senate Democrat to vote against confirmation of this clown. Take a stand. Don't try to triangulate. This is an easy call.
The newly reconstituted NATO will absolutely need Ukraine. It will represent the most experienced and technologically capable military in NATO.
Ossoff: "You were talking earlier about Jared Kushner. The guy leading our diplomacy in the Middle East is bringing in billions from Middle Eastern princes and sheiks and going around the region asking for billions more while he conducts nuclear diplomacy on behalf of the country. It's obscene."
He gets applauses and laughs at the end of every crazy thing he does or says, this WH is like a circus.
not good
Seems to me like Trump is desperately begging Iran to sign a replica of the Obama JCPOA he tore up. All for the low low price of thousands dead, global instability, high energy prices, and a toll on ships through the once-free strait of Hormuz.
Trump withdrew from the JCPOA in May 2018. He had more than 2.5 years left in his first term at the time.
He did not get a better deal then.
And he won’t get a better deal from the Iranian regime now - 8 years later, plus after his unconstitutional and disastrous war.
Measles has been spreading in the US, reaching infection levels not seen in decades and threatening the country’s elimination status. Some anti-vaxxers are now changing their minds.

BREAKING: Kash Patel sues The Atlantic & writer, Sarah Fitzpatrick, for her bombshell article alleging Patel’s “conspicuous inebriation and unexplained absences.”
I’ve got the specifics, including Kash’s outrageous demand for a minimum of $250 MILLION dollars in damages.

Translation:
This deal is about to be exactly like the JCPOA, minus Obama’s signature
What we had. vs What we got. 🤢
This is a remarkable and important step.
Ukraine, a country under full scale invasion for 4+ years, is signing deals to co-develop/produce weapons with other countries.
Saudi, UAE and Qatar are not only confident of but also banking on Ukraine being a functional nation state over the next decade.

🧵 The US censorship of artists, & the delegation of official artists, is a part of fascism. Hitler reviewed lists on who to ban, Trump can’t even be arsed. So instead a pet shop retailer is carrying out the work! In German history this is called entartete kunst or in English, degenerate art. [1]
