Trump, who is on tape asking GA GOP to find him 11,700 votes, wants you to believe Democrats in GA are cheating.

Independence Day Trivia Three founding father presidents died on July 4. John Adams (90) and Thomas Jefferson (83) both died on the 50th anniversary of The Declaration of Independence in 1826. James Monroe (73) died 5 years later in 1831 on this holiday.

Seems to me that since its inception all those years ago, no one even mentioned the reflecting pool being dirty or the wrong color, or even talked about it at all other than in positive ways, before Trump made a big fuss about it. Now it’s getting equal or more publicity to the war in Iran.

In case you missed it: The debate between Phil Weiser and Michael Bennet for Colorado Governor is well worth watching. Moderators @imkyleclark and @marshallzelinger were fantastic. Who is your choice for Governor? youtu.be/Fb-nX5vlqLE?...

Will ABC/Disney provide a statement supporting Jimmy Kimmel? Or will they stay silent? Bend the knee and fire Kimmel? So far, they are silent. We know that Kimmel was not referring to an assassination attempt the day before the dinner. The joke was about Trump’s health and Trump’s people know that.

Now that Eric Swalwell has effectively lost his chances as CA governor at this point, whether the allegations are true or not, who do you think can actually win against the Republican candidates? Who has a strong campaign and backing? Will someone new enter the race? I’m worried…

I never thought I would see Pakistan and China stepping in to get Iran and the US to agree to the temporary ceasefire. And Iran will open and control the Strait for those 2 weeks, right? Was Trump always going to back down anyway? What is Israel’s role in this? Will they adhere to the ceasefire?

NATO defends and supports member countries when they are attacked. Not when member countries are attackers w/o informing anyone, even their own Congress. NATO is not there to be insulted, tariffed & then asked to send troops to clean up the mess that the US started w/o being initially consulted.⬇️

“May have casualties” is a chilling phrase for a president to say to our military when announcing our involvement in the Iranian strikes… Think about the military families hearing this said in a blasé tone.

So now Dr. Oz urges people to take the measles vaccine after outbreaks and deaths. A little late, no? If they had kept the measles vaccine schedule in the first place, the outbreaks that caused illnesses, deaths, and resulting disabilities likely would not have happened. www.pbs.org/newshour/hea...

Since Will Lewis, (publisher of the WaPo) is stepping down, who will Bezos and the Board install? Such a historically great news/invesigative reporting organization has fallen hard over the last several years, especially lately. As a former journalist, it really hurts to see the knee bending.

Gone for just 20 hrs and so much more bad news abt the administration  reported. More corruption, gaslighting, & propaganda to cover up their wrongdoings. So glad there are whistleblowers, cell phone documentarians, reporters, & those speaking out. There’s no way I can keep up! How do you do it?

From Robin Snyder‘s Substack: “It was never about the Second Amendment. It was never about ‘don’t tread on me.’ It was never about freedom. It was always about finding a way to dominate and subvert the Constitution and use any means necessary to stay in power.” open.substack.com/pub/robinsny...

After watching the thousands of videos of ICE behavior from Minnesota (and other locations), and reading numerous documents, I think the sole purpose of DHS and the whole Trump regime is to traumatize and hurt (even k*ll) as many people as possible. There is no other explanation.
