The current presidency in a nutshell.

Why was a convicted felon allowed to vote in Florida elections when desantis made such a big deal about arresting felons who voted in past elections?
Trump is going to be represented in his district by two things he hates the most: women and Democrats.
Al Gore. Hillary Clinton. Kamala Harris.
Just think where our country - and the world - would be today if the people who’d won their elections had been allowed to win their elections.
Abolish ICE and prosecute every single “agent” for crimes against humanity.
Legacy media is failing democracy. Rather than complain, I did something about.
Six years ago I started Democracy Docket from scratch. Now it has more than 400,000 subscribers. But to help protect democracy, it needs to grow and scale. Subscribing now. bit.ly/4qmEiFz
-A living wage
-Guaranteed healthcare
-The right to join a union
-The right to vote
-The right to choose when, how, and with whom you start a family
-The right for you and your family to live free from gun violence
Remember: These are the foundations of real freedom.
When I think about American boots on the ground, I think about how Project 2025 calls for all public school kids to take the military entrance exam, but not the private school kids.
Well, this aged exactly how I was afraid it would
Trump now has three options:
1) Retreat from Iran and lose the middle east forever, Israel destroyed
2) Put boots on the ground and lose thousands and thousands of U.S. troops
3) Bomb Iran with nukes and risk global destruction
Nice going you stupid MAGAts
The United States murdered defenseless Iranians at Sea and left them to drown, which is a war crime. We seem to be doing a lot of war crimes nowadays. Maybe Pete hegseth needs to stand trial of The Hague
100%😔
I was at first shocked that more people weren’t talking about how the US bombed a school full of girls in Iran, but then I remembered how little they pretend to care when American kids are killed in schools.
The Iranian president apologizes to the neighboring states - and is immediately attacked by the hardliners of the regime. Apparently there are power struggles after the death of Ayatollah Khamenei.

This could get ugly quickly.
Every republican accusation is a confession.
Reuters: Germany has pulled additional Bundeswehr troops out of the Middle East, per military spokesman.
Soldiers deployed with the UNIFIL mission in Lebanon are being withdrawn due to the security situation after the Bundeswehr already sharply reduced its presence in Erbil in northern Iraq.
Iranian hackers threatening to hack into the top 3 credit bureaus and wiping Americans debt… and I just wanna know who I gotta speak to in order to expedite this.
I can’t believe how stupid everything is
For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:
Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down
Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace
Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs
Folks, we’ve seen this all before.
NONE OF THIS IS GOING TO STOP UNLESS WE MAKE IT STOP.

I don't understand how some folks are unable to see that the illegal disappearing of people is a class issue. The wealthy and well-connected get due process. The rest of us don't. This is part of the oligarchy, not a distraction from it.
The good news is that the constitution provides ways for Congress and the Judiciary to reign in a power-hungry president. The bad news is those people are all scared of him.
Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism.
If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone.
Americans of conscience must stand against this now.
I knew it wasn’t a good idea to employ 12 year olds at the Pentagon…
