Communists aren't trying to take over the government.
Sharia Law isn't coming to America.
Immigrants aren't the reason you are struggling.
These are the lies told to distract you from the questions they don't want you asking.
Why has the economy worsened while Republicans have full control of the government?
Why did a promise of no new wars turn into a pointless war with Iran that created high prices and ended in our surrender that gained us nothing?
Why is the number of uninsured Americans increasing from 27 million to over 35 million during this presidency?
Why does the top 1% now hold as much wealth as the bottom 90% when hard working Americans can't afford groceries, rent, healthcare, or anything else?
When politicians try to scare you about some group of "others" to get your vote, ask them what their plan is to improve your life. They won't have one.
While Democrats are not perfect, when they win the majority, you will still have your freedom, democracy, and capitalism. The only change will be that hard working Americans will struggle less, and have greater opportunities.
It is time to let the culture wars end, and focus on the real issues.
Litman: It's such a devastating way to go into celebrating 250 years of America by kicking out the people who make America great….
Sunshine: Was the Haitian migrant who killed 11 year old Aiden Clark, making America better?
Boykin: What about all the white people who commit crimes? You going to kick them out too?
The sequencing matters. Pulte issued the order to identify 400 counterterrorism cuts before he was confirmed in the role - before Gabbard had even left. Trump told the Wall Street Journal he wanted Pulte operating without the "shackles" of Senate confirmation. He then blew up Clayton's confirmation hearing hours before it was scheduled to begin, specifically to keep Pulte in place.
The National Counterterrorism Center exists because seventeen intelligence agencies failed to share information before September 11. The specific lesson of that morning was written into ODNI's founding mandate. A housing finance executive with no national security background was handed that institution, ordered to cut it before his first day, and Republican members of the intelligence committees have been silent.
Levin is right. The oath was not conditional.
Senator Richard Blumenthal is demanding an investigation into reports of a secret, $500m investment by an Emirati Royal into the Trump family’s cryptocurrency business: “Probably the most overtly corrupt deal by an American president with any foreign official in American history.”

"The SAVE America Act will not be implemented in time for this election," Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) told reporters on Thursday, adding that Republicans "simply don't have the votes."
Tillis noted that November's midterm elections are only five months away, but some early voting and voter registration will take place prior to then. "Does any rational person who's ever had any experience with implementing election law really think that it's possible to have all that in place in time for this election and not be disruptive?"
Imagine how dope the America 250th would have been if Kamala had won. Massive concerts, foreign dignitaries, millions of visitors to DC, a year long celebration culminating in a huge party on the 4th. Instead, we get meth head Kid Rock, a Gatorade colored reflecting pool, and a traveling carnival.
Amy Coney Barrett adopted Haitian children for a federal tax credit but ruled to let Trump and Stephen Miller remove TPS status from 350,000 Haitians who fled violence in the country. A lot of Haitians work in the healthcare industry as nurses, nursing assistants, personal care aides etc.
It's doesn't get any worse than this. These people are assholes.
Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick intervened to stop the opening of a bridge between Canada and Detroit and is pushing for a cut of revenues and other provisions as part of a deal, per sources. The White House backs Lutnick’s gambit. https://t.co/FsiFoAluBd
TENNESSEAN: “Nashville judge blocks TN Dept of Health from reporting 400 disabled immigrant kids receiving state-funded care to ICE as required by a new state law drafted with the White House… opponents say it deters families from getting necessary care.” https://t.co/u5jWEvFLC8
This is correct. I attended the Supreme Court arguments. Trump DOJ argued alongside Bayer/Monsanto that because the EPA had already blessed glyphosate, no state government could require labels disclosing cancer risk. The EPA & DOJ in this instance was only there to protect Bayer.
The United States has for the first time approved a text stating that it is no longer a neutral mediator in the Russia–Ukraine war, Macron said.
“The document states that the United States supports Ukraine’s territorial integrity, provides military assistance, helps with energy, and imposes sanctions on Russia.”
Mike Rogers 9 days ago: "Send me to Washington. I'll get this bridge open."
Mike Rogers today: "It's no money out of our pocket having that bridge closed for another six months."
Huh! Who'd you talk to between then and now, Mike? Why the change of heart?

BREAKING NYT:
A New York City panel just voted to freeze rents for nearly one million rent-stabilized apartments — fulfilling one of Mayor Zohran Mamdani's key campaign promises and handing the mayor a major policy win six months into his tenure. https://t.co/hs8vrRZ5bW
Both Haiti and Syria are categorized as Level 4 on the U.S. State Department's travel advisory. "Due not travel for any reason due to kidnapping, crime, terrorist activity, civil unrest, limited health care, hostage taking, and armed conflict."
Yet today's SCOTUS ruling has upended the lives of some 350,000 Haitians and 6,100 Syrians who have spent decades rebuilding their lives in the U.S., and is likely to have implications for TPS holders from about a dozen other countries. This blatant hypocrisy and disregard for human life are impossible to ignore.

Trump sued the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) for $10 Billion for “intentionally, maliciously, and deceptively doctoring" a speech Trump gave on 6 January 2021, before the US Capitol riots.
In court, the BBC asked Trump’s lawyers for the following:
Your move Mr Trump…
