Trump ripped up the walkway between the West Wing and the mansion to replace it with polished African granite carved in Italy. "Paid for by me," he claimed. Except that's not true. Taxpayers paid $689,232, per documents obtained by @michaelscherer.bsky.social www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man." A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

if you just went by media coverage you would think that trangender kids playing sports are a much more immediate threat to the public well-being than a billionaire becoming a trillionaire by pumping $2 trillion worth of fraud into every single 401k

You are clearly saying that he still has a tattoo he knows is offensive. That is false. Then you imply the first person to ever acknowledge the sexts was Amy Gertner. But when she confronted him years ago, he admitted it immediately and they went into couples therapy. You’re also obscuring that.

The implosion of the GOP is only beginning. And it will accelerate. But we can't just sit by and idly watch. We need to keep pushing for accountability—and ultimately for impeachment and removal of the president and his cabinet (of which the vice president is a member).

I live across the street from a retirement community. It would be a lot for some of them to go protest downtown. Limited parking, long walk/lots of standing. Got home this afternoon: scores of them on the sidewalk with signs. They won't be on the news, but I thought you should know.

They don’t want to hear from you. They don’t want to represent you. They want to outmaneuver you. That’s why SCOTUS dismantling the Voting Rights Act is such a priority. Because when more people vote, they lose. And they know it.
