Just take a moment to think about this. Last night PARIS RANG THE BELLS for America. London lit up the skies. Germans took to the streets. Our allies as giddy with hope and relief as we are. I'll never forget it.
So the RNC officially supports overthrowing the government. Good to know. Imagine what they will do if they return to power. If THIS doesn't fire us up sustained, nothing will.

John Fetterman's cognitive grasp of the issues, what's important to PA and our country sounded as strong as ever. That Fetterman will work on behalf of the people and democracy came through loud and clear. So sit down and shut up Joe Scarborough.

For the record and I admit, I was meh, meh, meh about Kamala. I thought Joe was boxed in gender-wise, and it was unfair that the outstanding Adam Schiff could not even be considered. Now, consider me convinced. All in. Just ordered this for my yard.

Officer Michael Fanone reminded us today on Morning Joe that “there were changes in protocol made to calling out the National Guard in the weeks and months just prior to January 6. That’s what we in the business call a clue.”

READ: The Case Against Donald Trump is outstanding. So blistering, so comprehensive, it's almost overwhelming. "He has shown a breathtaking disregard for the lives and liberties of Americans. He is a man unworthy of the office he holds."

formal response to what is overtly a polite and considered letter about safety during COVID, and why they fired this man. Frankly, the shoppers would be better served by increased filtration and ventilation too.

on voter suppression:
This is the only story from today b/c it is the only story historians will note from this era: Did Americans defend their democracy or did they fall to oligarchy?
The answer to this question right now depends on the Senate filibuster.
This is so obvious, but I couldn’t put my finger on what I was feeling. Catharsis, yes. But what else? It’s patriotism. Pride and hope in my country. It’s been so long I had to think about it to own it again. What a lovely feeling.

Can we please just STOP the charade that being a former president means ANYTHING legally? Trump is a private citizen - nothing more. If we did what he is alleged to have done we'd be in jail. He should have faced charges already. He should have been arraigned by now.

As long as I have been alive, Republicans have been lecturing the country that Democrats are soft on defense, and yet, the day it's reported that Trump, the leader of their party, ignored intelligence that Russia is paying terrorists to kill U.S. troops, they're totally silent.

Talk to me about the long terms effect of a virus. I have a very rare eye disease in my R eye from the chicken pox. Luckily it’s monocular. Yep, long term virus effect. I tell people long term virus fallout is a real thing. Nobody really listens.
This Watergate lawyer on
#MorningJoe
, says there is "special privilege for a President" saying there should be a Special Master. TRUMP IS NOT PRESIDENT!!! When will these talking heads stop saying that? When will media push back on that? He's a private citizen, like you and me.
"Merrick Garland is worried people will lose faith in the Justice system if they think it’s partisan." You mean like we did with the Watergate prosecutions? When that metering of justice did everything to RESTORE our faith? (The Nixon pardon notwithstanding...)
#MerrickGarland
Merrick Garland is worried people will lose faith in the Justice system if they think it’s partisan. But he is creating the impression it’s either corrupt or ineffectual. Peoples’ faith in the system matters. Garland has failed to keep it.

Riiiight, pay the debt off "fast" from the fraud who increased national debt by $7.8 trillion during his time in office. That's $23,500 in new federal debt for every person in the country.
Gotta love the Claim vs Fact board. MSM should have run that visual as a sidebar to every article about Trump from day one. I really appreciate how the GA officials are standing strong in integrity, and will not be intimidated, death threats and all.

Big Gus. Our big, beautiful Gus crossed 🌈 a few hours ago. He was up and down the past few weeks. Crisis this morning. He passed on his own without pain. We're crushed. 12.5 years wasn't long enough. Solace in “not gone forever, just gone ahead."
Cali and Gus finally exhale knowing Champ and Major will be in the White House. "It's been a long four years," they told me.

The moron right is saying that "no one EVER" disgraced the Capitol more than Zelensky in fatigues. Fatigues that maybe speak to the pain of his country? As Churchill did in a "siren suit" at the WH in 1941? Fatigues more disgraceful than Jan 6. Yep, that's where they went. FFS.

No one in the President’s inner circle has the decency to speak out against his perversion of our Democracy because they are showing us who they are too. All perverted, sick, cruel, insecure, intellectually challenged, and totally unschooled about history and our Constitution.
How naive am I? I had no idea what it meant, and literally lurched when I read it. I am truly shocked, stunned, sickened that this is a thing. And worn in public? This one, debased shirt tells us just how much trouble we're in as a country.

I want to find out more about the "defund the police" effort too. I *think* it's about creating "peace keepers" rather than police acting more and more like militarized aggressors. A change in thinking and culture for those who patrol our streets. That's what I've gotten so far.
At this point, $15 has been debated and put off for so long that adjusted for inflation, we're probably closer to needing $20/hour. And remember, we're at $7.25/hour -- criminal and cruel.

Who in the goddamn hell is back to rallies 6 days after getting out of the hospital with COVID? At 74 no less. No, he didn't have it and the whole lot of them are lying. "No big deal, the flu." That's what they want to make reality.
Who is weeping with me? Just watched the Tyre Nichols video. My god, my god, my god. Man’s inhumanity to man. How much more can we take in every way in our world everyday?

We know Trump is losing in the courts every damn day. But why is it always reported that it's a "Trump appointed judge" or not? Have we caved to the notion that the courts are now partisan above all else? And it's a surprise when they rule fairly?

To my younger sisters and brothers... I can see the day coming when we go back to when pharmacists had to see your marriage certificate before filling a prescription for the pill.
And yes, my younger friends, there was that day.
Reminder - President Biden won the presidential popular vote by more than 7 million votes. He was the first presidential candidate to receive more than 80 million votes. That’s a lot of people coming out to vote. That's what we need in the midterms and beyond.
