So far Trump has tried to rig the midterms by: 1. Attempted to nationalize voter registration & voting requirements. 2. Mid-decade gerrymanders. 3. Tried to use the USPS to obstruct mail-in balloting. 4. Used taxpayer money for ads. 5. Intimidation of election officials.

No matter what side of the aisle you’re on, this argument should be chilling. Trying to limit freedom of the press under the guise of national security is what tinpot dictators do. That’s not how a functioning democracy works.

LMFAO -- Trump is holding an event at the White House right now but there's no audio because the press pool isn't there. The Newsmax host notes that this is an example of Trump's attacks on the press "backfiring just a little bit"

GOOD. Sue the hell out of them. CNN, MS NOW & Politico are taking the Trump administration to court after the White House stripped their journalists’ access because Trump didn’t like their coverage of him. The First Amendment doesn’t come w/a “unless the president gets his feelings hurt” clause.

Will voters be fooled by this act 6 weeks before an election by desperate Republicans who have gone along with every single one of Trump’s whims, wishes & desires, refused to stop his war or tariffs, voted for his incompetent appointees & turned a blind eye to all his corruption?

OOF -- Enten details how Trump went from +2 on Russia-Ukraine in 2024 to -33 (!) now, and how Zelenskyy polls among Americans at +13 compared to Trump's -18 (in other words, Zelenskyy is 31 points more popular in America than Trump!)

Forbes says more than $11.6 trillion in U.S. debt was added under Trump, while crypto and foreign deals poured over $1 billion into his pockets. You pay the interest. Trump pays off his mortgages. That is corruption hitting your wallet. #CorruptTrumpRegime

Trump promised $5,000 stimulus checks from DOGE cuts. You got 0. Trump promised $2,000 stimulus checks from tariffs. You got 0. Trump promised $1,000 checks from Obamacare cuts. You got 0. Trump promised $1.98 gas. You got $4+. Trump now has more promises for you.

I want to strengthen my last statement—this *is* an election-rigging scheme. And the fact that there was a conspiracy in the executive branch to hide it makes it likely this constitutes a Criminal Conspiracy to Commit Election Fraud headed by Donald Trump.

Footballers are in the news paper again for sexual abuse. aAnd all the headlines say football has a misogyny problem. Yes it does, very much, but can I ask is there any institution filled predominantly with men with access to money and some power that doesn't have a misogyny problem?
