Okay! Another question for the media to throw in next to the 1,000th time they ask if Biden is too old:
"Does knowing that Donald Trump has promised to become a dictator make you more or less likely to vote for him?"
OR
"Is building a wall a good reason to become a dictator?"
Trump: You know why I wanted to be dictator? I want a wall and drill, drill, drill..
Crowd and Trump: build the wall
Trump: We did

NEW: Jack Smith’s team asked virtually every top intel official in Trump’s administration if they had evidence of a single voting machine vote being flipped. “The answer from every single official was no.”

Let's not bury the lede in yesterday's DC Circuit decision on the gag order: its statement about the trial date:
"IN THIS CASE, THE GENERAL ELECTION IS ALMOST A YEAR AWAY, AND WILL LONG POSTDATE THE TRIAL IN THIS CASE.” p. 48.

The ONLY reason the Texas Supreme Court can harm women with their insane abortion ruling is because Trump caused Roe v. Wade to be reversed.
The two parties are not the same. You have a binary choice in November.
Not voting, or voting for a third party candidate, helps Trump.

Incredible. The Texas Supreme Court tells a woman whose fetus has a non-survivable defect (trisomy 18) she can't get an abortion even though the pregnancy is dangerous for her & may result in her being unable to have more children. Let her make her own decision!

They believed all the misinformation on social media instead of the hard facts about why the these buybacks work. It is truly tragic. What’s also is troubling is that a lot of people were expecting gas and grocery cards for the holidays.
This is inexplicable to me. I don't understand how gun owners are harmed by others turning in guns.

I know I was too complacent & never imagined this codified cruelty.
It's worse than rolling back the clock 50 years.
It's hateful to women & punitive & downright dangerous to our survival.

This back pay should be coming out of Tuberville's bank account.

Scoop: Sens. Rounds & Manchin unveil bill that would award back pay to military officers whose promotions (& pay raise tied to it) were blocked by Sen. Tuberville.
Would make their promotions retroactive to 30 days after submission to Senate.

I want the entire country’s eyes on Texas.
Courts are arguing with each other about whether a woman can have a medically necessary abortion while she continues to remain pregnant with an unviable pregnancy.
This is not a hypothetical nightmare— it is a living one.

BREAKING: Late tonight, the Texas Supreme Court temporarily halted a lower court ruling that would have allowed Kate Cox, our plaintiff with severe pregnancy complications, to have an abortion to protect her health and future fertility.

Impossible to believe that Ryan O’Neal is gone. I felt so welcomed by his Peyton Place, the first big production brave enough to welcome me back from the blacklist.
An incredible talent, an incredible beauty. A gift of an artist we’re lucky to have so much of captured forever.

U.S. aid to Ukraine is a bargain for advancing our security interests.

In 1980s, US Defense spending averaged 7.3% of GDP. It dropped to 5.3% of GDP in 1990s after Soviet threats ended. So Americans were spending 2.0% of GDP to block Russian aggression. Now US spends just 0.3% of GDP to block Russian aggression in Ukraine.

Not only does this clip show us what a sham Comer and co. are inflicting on us, but it also reminds us that this ‘impeachment’ is about Trump’s criminal attempt to blackmail Zelenskyy. All roads lead back to Ukraine and Russia with Putin’s @gop.

Why do so many Americans always think crime is going up and the economy is going down? Both beliefs are currently wrong.

If Ukraine fails, Putin will not stop at Ukraine’s borders. Partner and NATO countries could be threatened.
The US also has 100,000 troops in Europe that could be threatened.

Amen.
Key part of DC appellate decision: Trump is NOT above the law and is entitled to no more than any criminal defendant. That is what the rule of law means.

BREAKING: New stats show inflation has fallen by two-thirds since its peak over a year ago. President Biden’s leadership and emphasis on building an economy from the bottom up and middle out has resulted in MASSIVE job growth, falling prices and increased economic resiliency.
