Mamdani: "To have a potential governor who embraces ICE and has gone so far as to create effectively a private militia in Nassau County, that is in many ways the antithesis of what people hope for is the future of the state, and yet that is exactly what Blakeman is offering."

I have some balance/mobility issues that lead to clumsiness. I want to be kind to the environment and save money. Thus, I ride a trike. Do I look like an adult toddler? Maybe. Do I give any 🖕😝🖕? Nope.
My Lectric XP2 trike when it first arrived. Safety first! Photo of me in my helmet. First day of riding. Very awkward. Very me. 

View of me (white woman, brown hair) in purple helmet, cream shirt, green pants, making an awkward gesture, standing next to my trike.

and there it is -- Trump says that if the Supreme Court doesn't allow him to put his name on the Kennedy Center then it will close down for good
The Board of The Kennedy Center today agreed, almost unanimously, to close the Building for Safety reasons, and so that it can begin the process of Reconstruction. The closing will take place immediately, however, the Renovation and Reconstruction, which is a very large and complex job, cannot begin until such time as the D.C. Circuit rules on the Board’s approved name. If the ruling is a negative one, which it should not be, and is not overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court, the Reconstruction and the Renovation of The Kennedy Center will not take place. The attorneys from the DOJ will ask for an expedited appeal. In the meantime, 17 Million Dollars, raised by President Trump, has been put into The Kennedy Center account to keep it afloat. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Trump & his admin were going to frame an innocent Marylander for "vandalizing" the reflecting pool, when Trump's handpicked contractor now admits it was their own shoddy installation.   Yet another shameless attempt to weaponize our justice system against Americans. This must end.

Reflecting Pool Contractor Blames Its Own Repairs, Not Vandals, for Damage
The contractor said the pool’s new blue liner peeled and tore because of “human oversight” and a flawed plan that involved layering two incompatible chemicals, documents show.

For those who are new, Joe DiGenova has spent the last 30 years baselessly accusing Democrats of committing crimes. If he is saying publicly the Trump administration pushed him out because he wouldn’t bring cases because there was no evidence, things are really bad.

It's disgusting that this unpopular clown is using Dolly Parton's death to ride on her legacy of generosity and popularity. He has to use AI because Dolly Parton was never photographed with Donald Trump in real life. Because he is everything she disliked: selfish, dishonest, mean, and rude.

Trump: "America has been carrying Canada for decades, but no longer! The US will always be far bigger, richer, and stronger. Without the US, Canada couldn’t survive ... Someone should get these clowns to 'fall in line' or, the consequences for Canada will be far WORSE!"
Trump: "Lots of 'bluster' from Doug Ford, who is the Premier of the Canadian Province of Ontario, but who is better known as the less charismatic, intelligent, and overall unimpressive brother of the late, great, Rob Ford. America has been carrying Canada for decades, but no longer! The U.S.A. will always be far bigger, richer, and stronger than Canada. Without the United States, Canada couldn’t survive — It’s where they get all of their money and, because of their current bad leadership, primarily Governor Carney, and his Flunky, Ford, they will not be allowed to keep taking advantage of the United States — Their key to survival. Remember, much of the Electricity, Oil, and Gas that Canada gets is transported through the U.S.A. Someone should get these clowns to 'fall in line' or, the consequences for Canada will be far WORSE! Canada’s Unemployment Rate is now at 10%, and rapidly rising. Their businesses are fleeing for the United States, and it’s all because of their failed policies, and inept leadership! The days of ripping off our Farmers, and other Businesses, are OVER! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP"
