The Trump regime wants to dismantle the International Criminal Court because it plans to continue committing war crimes. The Trump regime is refusing to allow international election monitors because it plans to continue committing election fraud. They are not being subtle.

When she was running for governor 32 years ago she couldn’t afford health care, so she can relate to what Mainers are going through under the regime she supports and votes with 96% of the time. 🙄

New boss David Ellison has a press conference. @status.news gets to ask some questions. www.status.news/p/david-elli... Listen closely. It's like: "We want to be in the truth business, and thereby the trust business, so... yeah. In our conversations president Trump has been enthusiastic."

This (and pretty much only this) is why I think it’s important to not expend excess energy finger wagging at #NeverTrump Republicans even though I’m solidly in the camp that believes the roots of Trumpism goes back to pre-Reagan years.

This is true. In 2016, I got into an argument with a gay man on a menswear forum. I've since made it my mission to make every man dress gay, thereby destroying his ability to tell who is actually gay and, ultimately, his chances of finding love. I built my social media following to achieve that goal
Someone on Twitter writes to me: "People should follow your advise if they want to look gay."

I don't care what the courts say. The Press en masse should continue Not to cover wannabe #kingtrump. It is the only thing that will bother him. Give him no access to continue to spew lie after lie. Instead report on every lie he has told while in office, and every promise unfulfilled. #Boycotttrump
