I’d highly recommend that nobody download this app.

At best, it’s unfiltered propaganda.

Interview Trump and FCC fascist Carr did not want you to see has now topped 8.3 million views on YouTube

If Carr’s FCC had allowed the interview on Kimmel’s broadcast it would have been seen by only 1.3 million viewers

The U.S. Mint had released a new $1 coin featuring the image of a simpleminded gargoyle.

With inadvertent candor-through-incompetency it also commemorates the end of LIBERTY in 2026. That will probably be true if we don’t take the midterms.

Trump can’t get the Save America Act passed nationally, so his sycophants are trying to pass it at the state level. Prop 39 in California is a trojan horse to enable Trump to restrict voting at the state level. Vote NO.

Tomorrow, the House will vote on the NDAA, which includes a provision to merge parts of our military with the IDF.

This amendment is an existential threat to American sovereignty and democracy.

Every member of Congress must vote NO.

Hey Everyone
Here's a great idea
Join me in tagging @govandybeshear.bsky.social Governor Andy Beshear
Tell him
Hey Governor
Try announcing you want a special election for Mitch McConnell's Senate seat
Let's see what those Republicans will do ..
Where's Mitch?

But seriously, @govandybeshear.bsky.social needs to just call a special election. Let the Republicans prove Mitch is alive.

Trump was first impeached after he tried to extort Zelensky. He wanted Ukraine to announce it was investigating Joe Biden

It was a lie-cooked up by Putin. Trump knew it. So did members of Congress like Jim Jordan and Ron Johnson, plus Fox hosts like Hannity

This is fraud
There must be prosecutions

📌Trump is going to do everything he can to make sure November’s vote has no effect on his powers.

if you can’t tell us what can be done to prevent it, then at least have the decency to admit that we have been right about him and his revolting party all along.

“You said the 2020 election was rigged by either Venezuela or China. When you called that fella in Georgia pleading for 11,780 votes, was that part of the rigging, or part of the 6-year investigation? Just one more thing, sir, who was president while all this rigging took place?”

Just a random reminder that trickle-down economics was invented by conservatives in the 1980s to justify massive tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations. It’s been nothing short of a disaster.

The Supreme Court must be reformed or dismantled at this point. It's a rogue body filled with 6 right wing extremists who want to replace democracy with a white Christian King. If a politician doesn't support Court reform then they arent the leaders for this moment. Step aside.

SCOTUS today:

- States can count mail in ballots arriving late as long as they are postmarked prior to the election

- won’t hear Trump’s E Jean Carroll appeal

- won’t hear Dersh’s CNN appeal

- Trump can’t fire Lisa Cook

It becomes more obvious every single day why he wanted to be prez again. It definitely isn’t that he cares about the country, only getting away with his many crimes and increasing his family’s dirty money wealth.
It is simply a FACT that a jury found trump had sexually abused E. Jean Carroll.
