Donald Trump voted by mail in today’s special election in Florida.
Republicans want to take this right away from everyone else.
These extremists are complete and total phonies.
Pete Buttigieg just slammed Trump for fundraising off of the dignified transfer of fallen U.S. troops:
“If the president is willing to raise campaign funds over the bodies of America's war dead, he is unfit to be the commander in chief."
WHEN A PRESIDENT STARTS THREATENING TV STATIONS DURING A WAR, YOU KNOW THE TRUTH ISN’T GOING HIS WAY
When a President starts trying to silence the news during a war, it usually means the war is not going the way he claims.
Donald Trump says he’s winning.
He says Iran’s navy is crippled.
He says their leadership is gone.
He says the threat is finished.
And yet the Strait of Hormuz — the most important oil passage on Earth — is still closed.
Which means something very simple.
The war Trump claims is “over” is clearly not over.
Oil tankers are stalled.
Global energy markets are choking.
The world is sitting on the sidelines waiting for this disaster to play out.
And now, suddenly, the White House wants television networks to stop reporting inconvenient facts.
Enter FCC Chairman Brendan Carr — what I call “the bully with a briefcase.”
His message to broadcasters was simple:
Report the war the way Trump likes it…
or your license might mysteriously have “problems.”
Now let’s translate that into plain English:
The government is hinting that if journalists don’t repeat the official story, they could lose their right to broadcast.
That’s not democracy.
That’s what happens in countries where leaders hold press conferences and firing squads in the same building.
And here’s the part that should concern every American.
These threats are not about correcting “fake news.”
They’re about hiding the truth.
Because the truth is messy.
The Strait of Hormuz is closed.
Oil is stuck.
The world’s economies are watching nervously.
And the allies Trump insulted for years are now politely sitting back saying: “Good luck with that.”
Funny how that works.
You spend years mocking NATO, insulting world leaders, cozying up to dictators…Then suddenly you need help with the war YOU started.
And nobody shows up.
Now Trump wants the press to help him sell the illusion of victory.
Sorry.
This country doesn’t work that way.
The Constitution begins with three powerful words:
WE THE PEOPLE.
Not WE THE PROPAGANDA.
And no FCC bureaucrat with a clipboard is going to bully the truth off the air.
…
If you believe in a free press, help make some noise. Share the truth so others can see how this administration is trying to muzzle the media and hide what’s really happening in Trump’s War in Iran.

And that's the way this grandpa and political satirist sees it.
Ossoff: "Last night the White House put a video on social media that depicted this war as a video game. When American service members killed in action are returning to the US in flag-draped coffins, and even more Americans have lost limbs or suffered terrible brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this White House treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to the moral rot of this administration."
Good morning and Happy Sunday to everyone who agrees that it is GRUESOME and OBSCENE for trump to be using photos from the dignified transfer of soldiers who died in his illegal Iran war for fundraising.
EVERYONE should condemn this.
Buttigieg: "The president's political operation was raising money off images at a dignified transfer. Any politician who does that has no business leading American troops into war. If the president is willing to raise campaign funds over the bodies of America's war dead, he is unfit to be the commander in chief."
Trump's net worth has jumped $3-4 billion during his presidency. Meanwhile, many American families can't pay their bills because of his bad decisions. Public office is for serving the people, not yourself.
