Trump is the first president to call for America to be attacked. And his Republican allies said nothing. They don't care about you, or the country. Vote Democratic this November. The future of America depends on it. youtu.be/DhIeyeqI2Ng

The Iran war, the mass deportation campaign, the trade war with Canada, the affordability crisis, the Kennedy Center, the Epstein mess, the measles, Jr.’s Russian wedding, the embrace of Putin—is there not one GOP leader who has the guts to say this ain’t working? That’s a rhetorical question.

With 50 days until the midterms, I urge you all to: 1) Help get out the vote. 2) Protect our electoral machinery from interference. 3) Not succumb to complacency, defeatism, or cynicism. We are the only ones who can end this nightmare. We are the leaders we’ve been waiting for.

Look at this photo we found from Donald Trump Jr.’s lavish Bahamas wedding. Can you spot the Russian oligarch close to Putin who bankrolled the event? 🧵
A group photo shows about 35 people, including Donald Trump Jr.; his wife, Bettina Anderson; Ivanka Trump; Jared Kushner; Tiffany Trump; and Russian oligarch Umar Kremlev.

Anyone accepting a $5,000 “GOP Dividend” from Trump for voting is looking at a $10,000 fine and 5 years in jail. It's illegal to offer, give, or accept money for voting. 52 U.S.C. §10307(c) Trump has already violated this law. But voters they will never be liable because they will never get paid.

He's now resorting to trying to buy the election. Federal law makes it unlawful to knowingly and willfully pay, offer to pay, or accept payment for registering to vote or for voting. (52 U.S.C. §10307(c).) Any type of incentive is considered “payment.”

The question is: why did Natalie Harp resist applying for a security clearance? What doesn't she want anyone to find out? www.ms.now/news/trump-a...

Trump aide Natalie Harp worked at the White House without security clearance for a year
The close aide to the president, known to filter much of the information reaching the commander-in-chief, ultimately relented in recent months after pressure from White House staff.
