I love to speak Spanish, lived in Spain. I taught Spanish Language & Culture 4 25 yrs. I retired, & I'm enjoying singing in opera companies & audition choruses. I sang at Spanish masses & was a cantor. I have 1 sweet Bengal cat, Maya. Azteca passed away.
⚠️ There are 132 election deniers across 35 states running for statewide or federal office this year, according to the pro-democracy group States United Action.

These 19 election deniers and vote suppressors are on the ballot in the midterms. We should be worried
Many are running for pivotal state-level roles like governor or secretary of state that wield enormous power to undermine a fair election.

@velshi.com I'd love to hear what these authors want to tell us about the book.
Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor launch their new book, "End Times Fascism: And the Fight for the Living World" on Democracy Now! It examines how wealthy elites are preparing for “the end of the world,” even as they contribute to growing inequality, political instability and the climate crisis.

We will tear down camps. ICE will enforce immigration as we did BT, before Trump. Families will be granted visitation rights until everyone is processed. We will feed them & sanitize facilities. That's just the tip of the iceberg for what Democrats will do for the people living within our borders.

Democrats will enforce the laws that our Constitution authorizes. We will give people their right to a hearing immediately. We will eliminate corruption & payoffs. We will reunite families. We will reestablish communications with governments involved. If they have committed no crimes, they can stay.

They are doing many things illegally. It takes time to get everything through the court system from trying to take over mail in voting to not giving potential deportees their right to their day in court. Many were promised amnesty until a court trial could be arranged. They are separated & jailed!

I’ve been saying it since Trump retook office. They will privatize everything because it moves taxpayer money—our money—into their own pockets. Gardaworld owner, CEO and president Stephan Crétier owns a $22 million beachfront mansion in Palm Beach, FL just down the road from Trump’s Mar a Lago.

@gtconway.bsky.social I agree 100% with you. I called it a nervous breakdown. When he gets angry, his veins pop out & his face turns very red, like he's heading for a heart attack or a stroke. Right now it's time for him to get a time out to get therapy & anger management. Where's JD?

With breaking news that journalists from CNN and MS NOW were denied access to the White House grounds Saturday morning ... Here's my analysis of where this is headed:
I discuss the mountain of First Amendment case law that prevents President Trump's attempt to punish journalists (ban them from the White House) because he doesn't like their reporting.
Plus a good statement by Fox News' Jacqui Heinrich, president of White House Correspondents' Association.

The biggest mistake in American history was not dragging Trump off to prison within 24 hours of Jan 6th.
We’ll all pay for that for the rest of our lives, if the MIDTERMS go south…
Now, go VOTE! 😎✨

As an American political historian, I can confirm that this Congress has been "almost unmatched in history" in several categories -- sad abdication of its war powers, craven surrender of the power of the purse, weird refusal to conduct meaningful oversight, and an utter failure to pass actual laws.

GOP pushing out fake polls doesn't only hurt Dem turnout on election day. It sinks Dem fundraising leading up to it, among other things. They did it in 2022, and they're trying again now, focusing on Senate races, as @simonwdc.bsky.social explains.
It's fake. Keep giving and keep working.

Thanks to MSNOW, CNN, & POLITICO for standing firm and promising up to the minute from from the Oval. Apparently he's also pulled press badges from Congress and Pentagon. News is coming in now. @ms.now @cnn.com @politico.com

If only Republicans in Congress would rise up and take back the power of our Constitution. Trump can't fire Mike J, but he can threaten families and worse. I guess that's what they fear. Trump could also try to get voters not to vote for reps, but it's too late to get a new person on any ballot.

@stephruhle.bsky.social The Jury of one has a verdict on the new lineup. You are awesome. You give me some energy & get me excited. Your show is absolutely the best, esp. the "Group Chat". I just need to listen to business more, & I love what you do! I'm out there talking to the screen every day!
