A scholar from the right-wing Claremont Institute cowrote Florida's Black history standards. It's the same radical think tank where John Eastman, an architect of Jan. 6, works and Christopher Rufo, who fabricated the notion that CRT was taught in secondary schools, served.

Gov. Ron DeSantis said Florida’s new African American history standards were crafted without political influence. But there’s evidence authors may have been chosen for their far right-wing political views that align with DeSantis’s own fringe views of Black history. Thread🧵

Trump is now pardoning a guy who set up a dark network to sell drugs. Evidence during sentencing showed that he was also involved in attempted murder for hire schemes. And Trump’s reason is that the criminal was prosecuted by some of the same people who prosecuted Trump.

BREAKING The President has granted a full pardon to Ross Ulbricht. Ulbricht was convicted on seven charges related to his role in creating and operating the Silk Road, a darknet marketplace. Charges included conspiracy to commit money laundering, conspiracy to commit computer hacking, conspiracy to traffic narcotics, and engaging in a continuing criminal enterprise (often referred to as the “kingpin charge”).

Trump lost by more than 5 million votes in California.

Trump: If I ran with an honest vote counter in California, I would win California. The votes are not counted honestly. It’s a very dishonest system you have in California

I'm old enough to remember when cheating on your pregnant wife with a porn star that reminds you of your daughter would hurt you with the evangelical vote in a Presidential campaign.

Trump told her that she reminded him of his daughter, who was also “blonde” and “smart,” Daniels testified. huffpost.com/entry/donald-tr…

The Republican candidate for Missouri Secretary of State made an actual campaign ad threatening people commenting on with social media posts with an assault rifle.
New Republican campaign ad just dropped.

Radical Oklahoma Superintendent Ryan Walters absurdly claims teacher unions are taking orders from President Joe Biden to teach children to hate Jews. "We have never had a more pro-terrorist, anti-semitic, anti-American president than Joe Biden."

Mayorkas will be acquitted and he'll get Republican votes. Everyone knows this impeachment is a sham.
I’m proud to have led the impeachment of Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. Impeaching Biden’s Secretary of Homeland has been the only accountability against the Biden admins deadly border invasion. Schumer must hold the trial in the senate!

Do you know what the 22 countries ranked ahead of the U.S. in happiness all have in common? Universal healthcare. Turns out people are happier when they don’t have to choose between food and seeing a doctor.

Remember when the 14th Amendment didn’t allow insurrectionists to be president?
"If I don't get elected, it's gonna be a bloodbath. It's going to be a bloodbath for the country" He's taken a political party and transformed it into a cult of political violence & chaos. The only way to stop the madness is to vote against him in Nov.

For those of us who called out @TheJusticeDept for dragging its feet on prosecuting Trump and even saying Merrick Garland was the wrong man for the job, we were right. Watch this. For those who vehemently pushed back, saying that justice moves slow, and we needed to give Merrick Garland time to do his work. You were wrong. Watch this. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Merrick Garland didn’t really get started until the January 6 Committee presented its case and public pressure was on. All hands should have been on deck for this on day one!

The January 6 Select Committee report addresses this. Trump suggested the day before that 10,000 troops would be needed to protect his supporters, not the Capitol, but he never ordered the National Guard to deploy, even as Mike Pence and congressional leaders begged for help.
They impeached a perfectly innocent President who did his part and tried to provide 10,000 National Guard troops ahead of J6. Nancy Pelosi and DC Mayor Muriel Bowser REFUSED to secure the Capitol and the city. They must be held accountable! thefederalist.com/2024/03/08…

John Stossel, who has always been a libertarian who skews his stories with cherry-picked, one-sided, and inaccurate data, was once a co-anchor for 20/20 on ABC News.
The "Southern Poverty Law Center" is more like the Southern Poverty SLANDER Center. It blasts @Moms4Liberty & @MomsForAmerica as "extremists" while excusing actual violent extremists like Antifa, which it calls: "individuals organizing against... injustice.” The SPLC is a scam:

‼️Republicans are lying to you about supporting IVF‼️ Rep Nancy Mace, Rep Byron Donalds and Speaker Mike Johnson claim to strongly support IVF, but have all sponsored versions of the Life At Conception Act. They know IVF bans are a losing issue, but don’t have the balls or the votes to pass binding legislation to protect it.

He'll stay on in the meantime to try to block Democrats from accomplishing as much as possible leading up to the election. 🙄

Families can’t afford groceries but are needed to “chip in today” to fund election campaigns to “save Democracy.” This is not sustainable. Publicly financed elections with spending caps and no independent expenditures from special interest groups are how we save Democracy.

If you poison someone, it's a felony and you get prison. When corporations poison millions, it's "business" and they get tax breaks, because they spend millions donating to politicians. If corporations were really people, more CEOs would be in prison. motherjones.com/politics/202…

Wow! Trump won’t say if he wants Russia or Ukraine to win the war. Zelenskyy’‘s reaction — “If Donald Trump doesn’t know who he will support, Ukraine or Russia, I think….he will have challenges with his society. Because to support Russia, it means to be against Americans.”

⚠️Florida, you in danger girl⚠️ As of Friday, there were 6 confirmed cases of measles at a Broward County public school. As of today, it has increased to 8. Health officials typically recommend that children who aren’t vaccinated for measles isolate for 21 days after they’ve been exposed to keep the disease from spreading. In a letter to parents, FL Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo said it was up to parents and guardians to determine when their children can attend school, even if they haven’t been vaccinated. Yikes!

Oklahoma Superintendent Ryan Walters uses the tragic death of Nex Benedict to play the victim, shrugging off criticism that he has stirred hatred against the LGBT community. Benedict, a nonbinary student at Owasso High School, died after being beaten in a girls' restroom.
