Trump chief of staff Susie Wiles’ daughter posts a pic at a training camp with a pro-Russian militia in Bosnia that specializes in destabilization… totally normal stuff! “The photo raises Q’s about White House links to the pro-Russian politician”🤔 www.cbsnews.com/news/russia-...

We just wanted to thank you! More than 1 million comments were submitted to the USDA urging them to leave the Roadless Rule alone. Thank you to everyone who spoke up for our national forests! 💚

The daughter of Trump’s chief of staff, Susie Wiles, works for a US lobbying firm with a $35K-a-month contract to represent Republika Srpska. Here she is with its interior minister, a figure aligned with the pro-Russian government. www.cbsnews.com/news/russia-...

I think in reality what socialism actually means in the American context is that trillionaire Elon Musk got $38 billion from the U.S. government and you got rejected trying to buy a $1 soda on SNAP benefits.

My statement on the ICE shooting in Marble Hill ⬇️

"Today in Marble Hill, ICE agents fired multiple shots at a man in his vehicle while his 5-year-old child was in the back seat.
ICE's already unwelcome presence in our city has been growing more escalatory and dangerous by the day. Today's shooting is a grave development that requires a swift and immediate response to protect the safety of all New Yorkers.
First, we must have a full and independent investigation of this incident.
"There must also be a full and immediate release of all body camera footage of the incident.
In addition, the Target Corporation must stop offering their Bronx properties as private staging sites for ICE, in compliance with requests from New York officials. Target opening up large, active retail parking lots for paramilitary activity is unacceptable and places the entire community at risk.
ICE is a rogue, lawless paramilitary and surveillance agency.
It does not belong in New York City and it should not exist in the United States of America. Abolish ICE.”

Before everyone goes nuts saying the Ds need 66 seats, let me remind y'all that the rule is 2/3 of Senators PRESENT. If the Ds take just enough seats to control, & enough Rs are bitter about 🍊🤡 costing them control that they can be convinced to stay home, impeachment can happen. I choose to believe.

Prop. 39 is the GOP's attempt to convince CA that non-citizens are voting - everywhere, all the time, and in huge numbers - despite their own Heritage Foundation's accounting that it's incredibly rare. Far-right villain-aires have joined in, hoping we'll oppress ourselves. (tinyurl.com/39-is-a-scam)
