Okay, Kamala needs to choose a progressive VP to inspire people to go to the polls! Do you want to go back to 1950 or go ahead to 2050?

BREAKING: Donald Trump is hit with a mysterious scandal as it's unearthed that a shady company has received more than $3 million from his campaign so far this year — and the owners aren't disclosed. But the plot thickens... According to campaign finance records, the money in question has been funneled to "Launchpad Strategies LLC." It was incorporated in Delaware in November and has a Raleigh, North Carolina post office box as its listed address. Bizarrely, state officials in North Carolina told NBC News that they have no record of the company registered in the state. "We don’t have a business entity by that name in our Business Registration database," explained Liz Proctor, a spokeswoman for North Carolina's secretary of state. Thus far, the company has received $3.1 million from the Trump campaign and an affiliated joint fundraising committee. It's the second-largest vendor used this year by the Trump Save America Joint Fundraising Committee. Crucially, "Launchpad Strategies LLC" has never before done political work for state-level or federal candidates according to financial disclosures. This of course raises the obvious question: What is this company and who is benefitting from it? Their website offers zero information about its services or who operates it. NBC News reached out to the organization for explanation but heard nothing back. Watchdog groups are understandably concerned. "It’s concerning to see a company formed just six months ago suddenly receive over $3.1 million from Donald Trump’s network of political committees, particularly since there is virtually no public information about this company," said Saurav Ghosh, the Campaign Legal Center's director of federal campaign finance reform. "Who works there, what services they offer or have provided and whether Trump’s payments to ‘Launchpad Strategies LLC’ are for bona fide services or are, instead, actually payments to other vendors funneled through a mere corporate shell," Ghosh added. Something deeply shady is going on here and since it involves our presidential election, the American people have a right to know what.

The baby who remained under the rubble all night in Gaza has made it safely. I see no one sharing. If he were dead, everyone would share! Share positivity...

Tell the Senate: Support the CASH Act: serve us, don't starve us. #CASHAct #COVIDrelief #serveus
Those bringing suit to invalidate election results in four states is in violation of the 14th amendment as is supporting it.
Today I’m calling on House leaders to refuse to seat any Members trying to overturn the election and make donald trump an unelected dictator.
