Greenland's Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen on choosing between the United States and Denmark:
"If we have to choose between the United States and Denmark here and now, we choose Denmark. We choose NATO, the Kingdom of Denmark, and the EU."
Is it a Crime?
If people, including elected officials, are lying about Mitch McConnell health... in an attempt to get by the Aug 3rd deadline that would establish a special election... have they committed a fraud?
.@KenPaxtonTX appears to have used an address where he didn't live while voting in 6 elections in the past 2 years, violating election laws...
...maybe someone should look into potential mortgage fraud, since GOP is happy targeting Trump's foes on that.

Let me be very clear: I am not here to defend Graham Platner. Democrats should not make excuses for him.
But the absolute hypocrisy from Republicans right now is breathtaking.
These are the same people who have spent years defending, excusing, worshipping, and politically resurrecting Donald Trump, a man who has been accused by dozens of women of sexual misconduct, was found liable in civil court for sexual abuse, and still became the face, soul, and standard-bearer of the Republican Party. They did not abandon him. They did not demand accountability. They did not say “character matters.” They put his name on flags, hats, trucks, churches, and ballots.
So yes, hold Platner accountable. Hold every Democrat accountable. Hold every public figure accountable. But do not let Republicans cosplay as the guardians of women, decency, or moral standards when their entire political movement is built around protecting one man from the consequences they demand for everyone else.
James Madison insisted that our bicameral Congress is America’s “preeminent” branch of government—not the president, whose primary job is to “take Care” to faithfully execute our laws, and the Supreme Court whose job is to say what the law is. I wrote in @thenation about the nonsense of “co-equal” branches and how we must advance the voting rights of the people and restore decisive power to our elected representatives in Congress. https://t.co/7XMSE90H1W
HOLY SH*T:
Florida Gubernatorial candidate, Byron Donalds, has just been accused of cornering and assaulting a woman, Kelly Mason, in a grocery store and threatening to "crush" her.
The woman's terrified daughter secretly recorded the entire incident.
Kelly Mason is now pressing charges on Byron Donalds.
Drop out, @ByronDonalds.
The courts blocked President Trump's illegal mail voting restrictions. Now it's time for the Postal Service to make clear it will follow the law.
Ranking Member Morelle and I demanded that commitment from Postmaster General David Steiner and called on him to testify before Congress. If he refuses, I'll pursue a subpoena.
The Postal Service should deliver ballots—not decide who gets to vote.

I know the answer: Too much Israel extortion and blackmail including defense kickbacks and Epstein files
When we were growing up, women running for office was a rarity. Three years before I was born they were debating if they should be allowed to wear pants on the Senate floor. Now, I’m part of a text chain with all of the 16 Senate Democratic women. We’ve come a long way.
I proudly served our country for 28 years and was the first female U.S. Ambassador to serve in a war zone.
I left my career to resign in protest and hold Trump accountable.
I'm running for Congress in MI07 to stand up to Trump and serve our community.

2:00 PM: 🇺🇸 U.S. judge ordered the DOJ to unredact Jeffrey Epstein files which name alleged co-conspirators.
5:00 PM: 🇺🇸 Trump REJECTED Court order to hand over redacted Epstein files.
8:00 PM: 🇺🇸 Trump began bombing Iran. The war restarted.
You connect the dots.
The Trump administration wants you to hate immigrants so much they blocked the release of a new study showing just how much money they bring in — through taxes they pay, and get NOTHING in return for!
$63 BILLION in the last 10 years.
That's enough to cover the majority of ICE's budget.
So just imagine how much money our country could rake in if we cut ICE and kept the immigrants ❤️
