I have a pretty good idea who should be the next White House press secretary. (yes, this is a real photo)

"What Metro Surge showed the world is that people do not want to watch their neighbors be brutalized, shot, and torn from their homes, and no amount of Trump posting on Truth Social is ever going to change that"

Trump wants a race war. Minnesotans won’t take the bait.
We love our Somali neighbors.

“Most of all he hates that I win.” And that’s it in a nutshell, because it means Donald LOSES. And there’s nothing Donald Trump hates more than losing! The losingest loser of losers, Trump loses bigly to Marc Elias every time. 😀

When I tell people that Donald Trump hates me, they often assume I mean it in a generic sense — that he hates Democrats and people who fight him in court. No, I correct them: he hates me personally. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

NEW: Federal agents raided Rep. Ilhan Omar's home as part of an investigation that reportedly concerns her immigration history. The move, which comes weeks before she faces reelection, marks a departure from longstanding DOJ guidance meant to keep federal law enforcement from influencing elections.

Federal agents raid Democratic congressmember’s home weeks before Election Day, despite DOJ rules against political interference
DOJ’s rules caution prosecutors and agents against taking actions that could affect an election — or even create the perception that they are doing so.

Russia has not only provided intelligence support to Iran but, as it turns out, has also supplied missiles to the Iranians. (Bloomberg News) Americans were killed by Iranian attacks using these weapons. www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_ent...

Under Trump and his Republican enablers, the richest Americans and biggest corporations have made out like bandits. Average working Americans are paying dearly for what the bandits have stolen. The grift and the graft must end.

Let me see if I understand this . . . 1. The U.S. is at war with Iran. 2. Russia is helping Iran in that war. 3. The U.S. is now giving Russia money that it can use to help Iran destroy U.S. bases and kill U.S. troops. Donald is smart & patriotic like that.

I’ve known many other defense secretaries, starting with Cap Weinberger, who served as defense secretary under Reagan. I can say without fear of contradiction that Pete Hegseth is the stupidest and least qualified of them all. He is a danger to the entire world. He must be impeached.

The American Bar Association laid out the receipts. Big donors get appointments. Big money flows in, investigations disappear, pardons follow, regulations loosen and foreign governments get favorable treatment. The article calls it an “unprecedented pay-to-play culture.” #PayToPlayPresident
