Don Trump Jr shooting wild animals with Russian Oligarch and GRU minders. Had enough yet?

While Trump is blocking delivery of air defenses that European nations purchased for Europe his piece of shit son is on a several day hunting trip with one of Putin's cronies, the same obe that paid for the Trump family's 2-day island party. It's all incredible and MAGA will cheer for more.

Every organizer and activist I spoke to for this piece had the same message to share: "we're ready" "When and if we have an uptick in federal enforcement at the polls, it's going to get documented really, really quickly, and it's going to be beamed out to the world that it's happening.” 8/8

It’s just so appalling and enraging how casual and commonplace this has become. I’m out of words.

Bill Maher wants Trump to like him. Bill Maher wants Elon and Zuck to like him. They all hate him. Everyone hates him. Bill Maher will end up with his only friend- Ted Cruz.

Interesting approach by Mike Rogers to make his loyalty to Elon Musk & the oligarchy an explicit part of his campaign earlier this year. “When you stand with my Senate campaign today, you are directly shielding Elon Musk,” Rogers wrote. www.metrotimes.com/news/mike-ro...

TRUMP OFFERS ONE MILLION DOLLARS TO ANY CITIZEN FINDING VERIFIED AND PROVABLE VOTER FRAUD…. BECAUSE THE DOJ/FBI CANNOT.

INFLATION WAS 2.7 when Biden left office. It’s now 3.4 officially but in reality is far closer to 5 pct with gas, food, and soaring interest rates. The Biden economy was booming. Trump has created a financial train wreck with the war with Iran and tariffs. BE PRECISE. Trump has failed MASSIVELY.

Congrats to Lula on overcoming Mark Zuckerberg and Donald Trump to defeat Hospital Pervert Jr., even as his opposition literally blocked off roads and turned off bus service during election day. Fascists are scary but they are always, 100% of the time, ultimately gigantic fucking losers.

We don't build streets like this anymore. I'm not talking about the brick pavers. Nor the centuries-old Dutch architecture. I'm talking about the scale. The feeling. The idea that a 2-year-old can just ride his balance bike in the middle of the street, equal to anyone else.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

From Zelenskyy. Patriot interceptors that could save innocent lives are sitting in European countries for weeks, which they paid for, unable to be transferred to Ukraine because Hegseth refuses to sign off.

Bill Maher wants to be Trump’s friend. Trump literally hates Bill Maher. Trump is a horrible person. Bill Maher wants to be his friend, What does that say about Bill Maher?

Lula: "We had to overcome foreign interference through digital platforms, which we will have to regulate. A crime in the digital world must be treated the same as a crime in the real world. We cannot have monstrous companies earning millions... not paying taxes... wanting to steer elections."

So Trump’s closing argument is that high gas prices are good because his donors who run oil companies are making bank, Jon Husted has a nice ass but not quite as good as Nicki Minaj’s ass, after 7 months the Reflecting Pool is almost done, and we get a ballroom, arch and helipad.

In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.

Trump tells his supporters that GAS & OIL companies are making $$$ BILLIONS While they get screwed. And they cheer him.

Trump: "While oil prices are temporarily high ... the United States oil and gas business is making hundreds of billions of dollars"

Trump is straight up saying during speeches that he wants white people coming to the country but not black. I don’t know what else people need to see.

I don’t get it. If the tariffs are great for America and are bringing back manufacturing and are one of Trump’s signature policies, why won’t the Republicans who refused to overturn them even mention them?

If you want know who Jon Husted is fighting for, just look at who’s been funding his campaigns: - Epstein Co-Conspirators: $116,000 - Big Oil: $191,000 - Data center industry: $636,000 - Health insurance companies: $679,000 - FirstEnergy: $3.5 million - Big Tech: $45 million

We are making the oil oligarchs rich. We are making Trump and his cronies rich. It is literally at our expense every day. There’s no trickling down happening. And Trump is bragging about it knowing nobody in the Republican Party will stand up to him and say enough.

ICE said Antonio Moreida jumped onto the hood of their vehicle. Now a local police investigation concludes that an ICE agent struck him with his SUV. The routine lying by ICE is the result of the example set by leadership of the Department of Homeland Security.
