Lyrics from Irving Berlin’s 1941 song about Hitler: “When that man is dead and gone” “Satan thought up a plan/dressed as a man/walking the earth/And since he began/the world is hell for you and me/but what a heaven it will be/when that man is dead and gone.” www.americaamerica.news/p/this-cant-...

Swooning over China’s repressive communist dictator and belligerently acting out at the United Nations. Yes, it’s a psychiatric emergency.

Let's be honest. The greatest threat to our country today is the rise of authoritarianism, not socialism. Let's commit to a little honesty in our politics, focus on economic growth for the most number of people, and restore a little trust in each other along the way.

Trump says Democrats forgot to rig the election in 2016, successfully rigged it while *he* was president in 2020, then forgot how to rig it again in 2024. So the only election Democrats supposedly stole was the one he himself controlled. You have to be a special kind of stupid to believe this BS.

Republicans in Congress have prioritized Trump’s whims, wishes and desires ahead of the welfare of the American people. Some because they worship him, others because they are afraid to stand up to him. They will pay a heavy price for that at the ballot box in November.

Yes, a corrupt president may pardon the crooks who act on his behalf, but a modest change in the law could give them pause. Violating civil rights should carry a profound cost, and the message to the Trump administration must be clear: Protect the integrity of the election, or we will make you pay.
