Hey Meta 👋 We are currently hosting a get-out-the-vote rally in Osceola County, home to a large Puerto Rican community, and our #LatinosConAngie Instagram page was suddenly taken down while we were actively posting content from the event.

Corrupt cowardly pendejo Marco Rubio helped dictator-wannabe criminal Flavio Bolsonaro and his family flee from Brazil to the US after losing the election and says he will issue them visas. The MAGA regime won’t grant asylum to people fleeing war zones, but they’ll protect a terrorist. Got it.

At least 18 early voting centers in rural Alaska have not opened as of Friday, state Sen. Bill Wielechowski says. The commonality? All the affected areas have at least a 60% Alaska Native population — with nearly a dozen having Alaska Native populations upwards of 90%: https://demdock.com/4yTW5Ze

Shouldn’t someone have the fiduciary responsibility to have made sure corporate research and development money was never spent on Musk’s masturbatory roadster. If you’re a stockholder in Tesla you’re being taken for a ride. Next step is Musk clawing back control by merging with SpaceX.

A.I. tells me… “I couldn't find any pollster, campaign, or organization tied to "Texas Polls" or us-polls-25.com. The name and domain don't match any known Texas pollster, and a generic name with a numbered domain is a common pattern for spam or phishing links, …”

JFC, get this man out of office

😳 Trump loses it and SNAPS at a string of reporters, says Ilhan Omar might "go to jail," calls Somalia "a shit house," and boasts that thanks to a new program he announced today Americans "will make millions of dollars by turning others in" during absolutely deranged Oval Office event Supercut:

“would be much quicker to decern what happened” don’t use your SAT words if you don’t know how to spell them, spellcheck knows all the words, including obscure legal ones

“As a mom of five [i never miss a lip injection and buy into anti-trans bullshit]” is a political add likely not best placed during the WNBA finals. Paid for by Elon Musk, racist, misogynist, bigot.

“Social Security said the maximum amount of earnings subject to the Social Security payroll tax would rise to $192,300, up from $184,500 this year.” remove the cap, congress (well salaried individuals subsidizing their neighbors is not unreasonable!)

“Several Republicans turn on Trump over diesel deal with Russia's Putin” -USA Today Headline or… Trump (and most Republicans) turns on America in diesel deal with Putin?

what I said, 3 days ago… www.offthekuff.com/wp/?p=125281 [Harris County] "District Attorney Sean Teare’s office is investigating the Saturday wreck involving an ICE agent who struck a fleeing construction worker as a potential aggravated assault with a deadly weapon."

assault of an unarmed man with a deadly weapon, charge him now

a reminder that Ted Cruise is not the zodiac killer, and his dad did not kill JFK but he did once call Trump a “sniveling coward” and something we all know, that Trump is “a small and petty man who is intimidated by strong women”

while checking on my upcoming ballot i notice one of the three gentlemen who share my first and last name (Floyd, Robert, and William is our middle name differentiators - along with our addresses of course) in my Texas county has a notice on his registration…

"You must submit a Statement of Residency (SOR) in order to update your registration and have your ballot counted." i suspect he's moved and hasn't voted in a while,…used to be two people of the same name there, 30 years in age difference, the other hasn't been on the registration roll for awhile

Trump and his lickspittle Marco think raising their voices at the International Criminal Court will prevent Netanyahu from being a war criminal.
