NEW: Trump 2.0 has made extremist views acceptable. In November, candidates will run for critical federal and state-level positions who have expressed racist, pro-militia, anti-vaccine, sexist, antisemitic, and secessionist views. Many have been endorsed by Trump www.wired.com/story/these-...

37 more wounded troops. Added quietly. No explanation. Here's the No B.S. truth: when anyone (a vendor, a CEO, a government) revises the numbers without telling you why, the silence IS the message. 861 wounded. Their families deserve the full story.

Acosta: This is a Category 5 fuck-up of epic proportions. It is likely to go down as the worst presidency that we have ever witnessed in this country’s history. That tops the first administration that ended with an insurrection.

DHS SAVE database has long and documented history of producing false positives of non-citizens voting, leading to sensational headlines of alleged voter fraud that turn out to be untrue on closer inspection. In St. Louis County, MO, for example at least 81% of the names flagged were incorrect

The Hunting Ground is the documentary everyone should be watching to learn more about the scope of campus assault. Made in 2015 but as relevant as ever. Women's safety is sacrificed by college institutions for financial gain. Our administration is doing the same thing by protecting predators.

The Guardian: survivors allege girls as young as 15 were exploited in a group Trump's FCC chair belonged to for years. Carr denies knowing. Ask GOP senators if that's good enough for a man regulating your family's airwaves. Silence keeps him there. #TrumpsCorruptCongress #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

I found watching Trump’s UN speech today deeply depressing. It is a matter of national shame and humiliation that he is our president. Every country in the world, friend and foe alike, sees we are governed by a vainglorious fool.

With the midterm elections shaping up to be a massive reckoning for the Republican Party, it's worth remembering that they had a fairly easy offramp from Trumpism in the immediate aftermath of the January 6th riot but they completely chickened out.

Skipping the 2026 vote because of cynicism is a luxury belief. It is the view of those who do not face ICE vans, dying lakes, or surveillance cameras tracking family to clinics. Your apathy is a comfort they cannot afford. #GetReadyToVote #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory
