The first thing Trump did when running for election was to disparage the press. He told 60 Minutes correspondent Leslie Stahl after his 2016 election win that he bashes the press to “demean” and “discredit” reporters so that no one will believe negative stories about him. 1/3

If you believe Melania Trump negotiated a ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia, you're the reason "DO NOT EAT" labels are put on soap. If you believe Donald Trump is going to give you a check for $5,000 if Republicans win, you're the reason irons have "NEVER IRON CLOTHES WHILE BEING WORN" warnings.

"The votes aren't there" is cowardice masked as savviness. There has to be accountability for their crimes. The House has a duty to make the case here and if some GOP senators want to weasel out, make them own that vote. Don't let pundits and "strategists" talk you out of doing your damn job.

Kamala Harris: I think that going in the direction of impeachment is not a good idea. I was in the Senate for the last go-round, and the votes aren’t there. I think after the election, we all have to just also agree that our attitude has to be to get stuff done…

🚨 Iowa Senate candidate Josh Turek calls out Republican Ashley Hinson over what he describes as a $400,000 campaign bus and a request for gas money. “I'm just in a small car just driving around Iowa.” “That is a Marie Antoinette level of ‘let them eat cake’ disconnect.”

House Judiciary Democrats have just released a 50-page report that pulls together years of assault allegations against Trump and his reported connections to Jeffrey Epstein. The report calls for a special counsel to investigate Trump's ties to Epstein.

NEW: "Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s," per new House Judiciary Dem report. Report has new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old and then promised the victim a visa & NYU admission, demanding she stay quiet.

David Ory reposted

The allegations against Donald Trump for sexual assault seem to have a common denominator: He is physically violent and intentionally inflicts pain on his victims. He likes to slam women and girls up against doors and walls as he roughly manhandles them. Donald Trump is a sick and twisted person.

Donald Trump's deployment of California's National Guard in Los Angeles was an unlawful and unconstitutional abuse of power. It was done over California’s objection — all in an effort to intimidate peaceful protestors advocating for immigrant rights.
