Tommy Tuberville Opposes Contraception and All Other Polysyllabic Words
“I see the word ‘contraception’ and that’s a quick ‘no’ for me,” he said. “Don’t know what that means. Won’t look it up.”

Hunter Biden on Natalie Harp’s access to Trump: “It’s not just weird. Who is this person who’s a meter away from the nuclear football, has this level of access to the most powerful man in the world, went a year without a security clearance, and is basically around Donald Trump 24/7?"

Major food companies like Taylor Farms thought Trump's attacks on food safety regulation and public health agencies would boost their profits. Now they're finding out how quickly "deregulation" can spiral out of control.

The best measure of how America is doing isn’t the unemployment rate, or the stock market, or the rate of economic growth, or the inflation rate, or the average wage. It’s how well most Americans are living. And the reality is that most Americans are struggling.

If you have enough money that you can blow $100,000,000 on avoiding taxes, you have enough money to pay $100,000,000 *on* taxes that will help your fellow citizens, you self-centered prick.

📮 The Trump administration wants SCOTUS to hurry up and let it implement sweeping restrictions on mail voting for the midterms. But the order asks states to notify USPS that they will use mail-in ballots “no fewer than 90 days prior to a Federal election.” That 90-day deadline passed last week.

Voting experts have warned that the order, even if quickly implemented, would confuse mail voters and wreak havoc on ballot counts.

By August 2024, 40,000 self-proclaimed vigilante vote-fraud hunters had already challenged the rights of 852,381 voters — with a target of 2 million before the election. Did the voters decide the 2024 election, or voter suppression? Watch our movie and decide for yourself. youtu.be/P_XdtAQXnGE

By pardoning the most violent January 6th attackers, Trump is telling them to commit more violence in his name, and if and when they do — he will protect them. We are all in terrible danger.

Trump’s “First Buddy” is in deep shit
If you’re advising a president-elect, you don’t publicly push him to do what you want. That’s true of any president-elect. It’s even truer of Trump.

150 billionaire families spent $1.9B on the 2024 election through October. It's a huge amount of money — but it represents just 0.07% of their overall wealth. It essentially costs them nothing to drown our democracy in cash. We must get big money out of our politics.
