Integrity is doing the right thing, when No One is watching.
I'm not overly political, I just see a thread and slowly start pulling ..... just call me Rain Man!
Last month in Virginia, the people made their voices heard at the ballot box and voted for new Congressional maps.
Today, the Virginia Supreme Court ignored the will of the people and overturned those democratically chosen maps.
This ruling gives a boost to Donald Trump's effort to rig the 2026 elections and the Republicans' long game to attack voting rights.
We are rightfully outraged, but we will not give up. We must continue our fight to restore the power of the people.
I wonder if he used the "Blue" paint that he bought to paint AirForce 1 & 2, but couldn't because it was too costly & would affect the plane's efficiency?
Nah, Trump would Never reallocate resources to save taxpayer $$?
He only takes from the poor to give to the rich.
President Trump wants the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool painted blue. He used an exemption to steer a $6.9 million contract to somebody he said had worked on his own pools, despite rules about how government money is spent, The New York Times found. https://t.co/34zDxNAIq8
AOC: All those maps were passed by the state legislatures. Virginia was an election of three million Americans. This court did not overturn a map, it overturned an election. It’s one thing for a court to check a legislature or an executive but the end-all and be-all of power in America should be the people.
Beautiful weekend for a LIV golf tournament at Trump National in VA. Sure would be a shame if it were ruined by this ad running on heavy rotation on the Golf Channel in the club house and targeting every phone in the vicinity. Oh. Wait. 😈🏴☠️
The KKK is alive and well in Tennessee. The Sargeant of Arms blocks Representative Justin Pearson from entering a committee meeting about redrawing the map specifically for the district he represents.
FUCKING SHAMEFUL!
After Jesse Watters of Fox complained about my story on Trump’s ridiculous reflecting pool project, I decided to do a fuller report on many of the ways Trump is ruining DC. CRY MORE @JesseBWatters ! 😂 cc @WashProbs
Tennessee just erased its only majority-Black district, paving the way for a 9-0 Republican congressional delegation.
Florida, Alabama, and Louisiana are following suit.
The playbook is simple: pretend race has nothing to do with it while systematically stripping Black communities of representation.
One Tennessee lawmaker was asked if he knew Memphis is predominantly African American.
His answer: “I am not.”
No vote in Tennessee (+1 GOP)
No vote in Florida (+4 GOP)
No vote in Missouri (+1 GOP)
No vote in North Carolina (+2 GOP)
No vote in Texas (+5 GOP)
Virginia’s voter-approved maps thrown out.
MAGA has rigged the system.
This paint job—if you can call it that—is costing you $7 million, America, because Trump gave a no-bid contract to a pal
This would have been Exhibit A of the sort of shit DOGE was actually *supposed* to be looking for when it was instead cutting lifesaving scientific research
In Trump’s America, you get executed for disrespecting ICE, Fed Chairs get threatened with criminal indictments if they don’t lower interest rates, and our closest allies for decades are threatened with invasion. We are in a dark place, a place some of us very much expected.
The Kennedy Center was established and named by an act of Congress. No media outlet should call it anything different until Congress amends or repeals that Act. Trump is not a king.
The Kennedy Center was named after my uncle, President John F Kennedy. It was named in his honor. He was a man who was interested in the arts, interested in culture, interested in education, language, history. He brought the arts into the White House, and he and my Aunt Jackie amplified the arts, celebrated the arts, stood up for the arts and artists.
It is beyond comprehension that this sitting president has sought to rename this great memorial dedicated to President Kennedy. It is beyond wild that he would think adding his name in front of President Kennedy’s name is acceptable. It is not.
Next thing perhaps he will want to rename JFK Airport, rename the Lincoln Memorial, the Trump Lincoln Memorial. The Trump Jefferson Memorial. The Trump Smithsonian. The list goes on.
Can we not see what is happening here? C’mon, my fellow Americans! Wake up! This is not dignified. This is not funny. This is way beneath the stature of the job. It’s downright weird. It’s obsessive in a weird way. Just when you think somone can’t stoop any lower, down they go…
@RonFilipkowski Donald Trump has no morals
He exults Capitol rioter Ashli Babbitt, yet puts out this disgusting! rant about Rob Reiner, for no other reason than he disagreed with Trump’s politics.
He should’ve just said nothing.
