Voter suppression doesn’t always announce itself with a dramatic speech. Sometimes it arrives as confusing rules, reduced access, administrative obstacles and endless excuses. Pay attention to who benefits when voting becomes harder. 🗣️ #JulesUnfiltered

The media just can’t make this guy happy. He throws them out and he’s not happy. They come back and he’s not happy. But the one thing that must make him happy is losing in court. Because he is very good at it and he does it all the time.

Wow — listen to these new comments from Trump. Thanking Putin, trashing Zelenskyy, characterizing Russia as eager for peace and Ukraine as intransigent. The mask is totally off.

It's very chilling to watch that crowd of disgusting yahoos trying to silence someone calling Trump a pedophile rather than being revolted by the fact that he is.

"I understand journalists want to be neutral. But if you're a journalist in the US, you have an obligation to be biased— in favor of democracy. And Trump is anti-democratic... The longer the press pretends that Trump is not an enemy of their profession, the more runway he has to undermine them."

Fascism is here. If you’re not alarmed you’re not paying attention. “Left-wing political terrorism” will mean those who oppose the regime — while actual right-wing extremism is allowed to grow and thrive. We are very far off the cliff, folks.
