And nothing happens. Media attacked joe Biden, incessantly. They gave Yamtits the front page to print every comment, name calling and insult. Now, things have gotten waaay out of hand and not a peep. They are all afraid of him. They tip toe around his words or play deaf.

📜 PINKS | HER PLACE IN HISTORY She understood that progress meant little if entire communities were still being left behind. Her vision of equality demanded more than promises—it demanded change. Today, we honor Mary Church Terrell, a woman who refused to accept a democracy that excluded her. #Pinks

When we win, we need to deliver. If we do not, the backlash will be severe. Our nation and the world cannot bear that. We need to not only defeat Trumpism, but tackle the conditions that led to its rise.

1/ Russian propagandists had a problem Western journalists wouldn't trust Russian sources. So a leaked plan proposed an Israeli think tank that Western media WOULD trust. Do these Journalists now know? Investigators then found something remarkably similar #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy

Having the cultural orientation to absorb large numbers of immigrants into a vibrant, diverse society is nothing less than the key to what has made America prosperous and dynamic. Setting fire to that orientation, as we're doing now, will end in tears. We'll be a country for old men.

Funny how their “originalism” dissipates when there’s a Republican/billionaire imperative at stake. I don’t think “originally” corporations were people, or presidents had immunity, or agencies couldn’t make “major” rules, or Congress couldn’t set terms of office. What a joke.

This seems like a pretty big deal: donors made illegal contributions to Susan Collins and then were awarded lucrative contracts after her office intervened with the Navy. An FBI investigation was dropped under Trump. www.propublica.org/article/fbi-...
To skirt campaign finance laws and conceal the source of the funds, Navatek planned to funnel the donation through a shell company. The CEO wanted assurance that Collins would know where
the money came from. Reed confirmed that she would, the executive said - and that Navatek would get its government contracts.
After the Corner Bakery meeting, Navatek's CEO, Martin Kao, sent an initial $150,000 to the Collins super PAC using the shell company. Two months later, he told Navatek executives that Collins committed to getting the company $32 million in naval contracts, according to an internal company email reviewed by ProPublica.
