🔥 Mark Jacob, a former Metro editor at the Chicago Tribune and author of newsletter 'Stop the Presses' calls out The New York Times for normalizing and minimizing Trump during "one of the biggest crises in American history." Trump is building a fascist, authoritarian dictatorship. WATCH:

🚨BREAKING: The DOJ sued California for sending mail ballots to 20k people the Trump administration claims are likely noncitizens. The lawsuit comes after the DOJ threatened legal action if the state did not set aside cast ballots of those flagged until their citizenship status is confirmed.

Instead of Texans sending Ken Paxton to Washington, they should ask where the hell he’s been for the last decade. Here’s what investigators uncovered: 📌 730 workdays: Left blank on Paxton's official calendars, equivalent to nearly 3 years of standard workdays

A local New Jersey election board sent warnings to voters that their right to vote could be challenged. None of them were Republican. Now, a judge is allowing an investigation into those voters to continue — with an important caveat: demdock.com/4zzitaR

Look at the shabby state and increasingly authoritarian trajectory of the country and ask yourself if we can endure 2 more years of a lawless Trump administration wreaking havoc with no check from Congress, then vote accordingly. This is not the time for a protest vote or purity politics.

Look: I lament to say that I am only three years younger than Trump. Zero times (0) in my experience has a doctor asked me to take a basic-cognition or dementia-screening test. We've mainly talked about what I was writing. Trump apparently gets these all the time. But not frequently enough.

This is a sitting member of Congress who called for immigrants to be executed by throwing them to their deaths out of helicopters. Mike Collins personally amplified neo-Nazi propaganda online. It's disqualifying for a member of Congress and for a candidate for the U.S. Senate.
