@WillMcAvoyACN@g_e_anderson When states are controlled by extreme gerrymandering, they are an anathema to the first amendment. The GOP owns the theater, starts the fire and doesn’t warn the people trapped inside.
In the D.C. gag order hearing, Circuit Judge Patricia Millett tells Trump's attorney the order doesn't threaten Trump's First Amendment rights.
"This is only affecting the speech temporarily during a criminal trial process by someone who has been indicted as a felon."
BREAKING: Bombshell investigation discovers that Mississippi's Republican Governor Tate Reeves has funneled a staggering $1.4 billion in state contracts and grants his top political donors — a blatant quid pro quo arrangement.
The right-wing corruption was discovered by an investigation conducted by Mississippi Today and found that fifteen donors who gave Reeves' campaign $50,000 or more have netted part of that massive aforementioned sum.
Reeves oversees the agencies that disburse the funds, meaning his grubby fingers are all over this scandal.
On top of that, even more contracts amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars have been awarded to the governor's donors from state agencies that he does not directly lead. It would have been a simple matter for him to exploit his political influence to get others to handle the corruption for him.
For example, the Mississippi Department of Transportation has awarded Reeves' top donors at least $552 million since 2020.
Unlike many other states, Mississippi does not have a general prohibition on "pay-to-play" schemes for the obvious reason that Republican politicians want this kind of behavior kept legal.
This is a cut-and-dry situation. Governor Reeves is taking taxpayer money and funneling it to his friends in return for them helping him get elected and stay in office. Mississippians should be outraged.
He must resign immediately.
Please retweet and ❤️ if you — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a “woke” new Twitter competitor that is exploding in popularity because it banned Trump for life and because Elon Musk banned Tribel’s Twitter account — but he forgot to ban this link to download the new Tribel app: https://t.co/HnJzSKjCwX
Of the 700 Israelis confirmed dead so far following the Hamas invasion, some 260 were young people murdered while participating in a dance party in the desert.
Israeli authorities believe Hamas knew about the party and targeted it specifically.
@krassenstein@maurice_lippy I’ve always sat on the fence. No more. If the remaining hostages aren’t returned safely, Gaza should be rendered uninhabitable.
I was among those who once called her a “loose Cannon.” That was wrong.
She’s firmly anchored — to one thing and one thing only: Donald Trump’s interest in escaping accountability until after the election.
It’s a complete disgrace.

Ponder how LOW our expectations have become when we don’t expect Jack Smith to do Jack Shit about more Trump treason.
People rot in Leavenworth for sharing nuclear secrets.
But Trump does it, and it’s just another headline, and we all just shrug.
SICK AF.
Far be it for me to suggest @nytimes is biased, but wallpapering A1 w/Hillary email stories but burying a story about Trump sharing highly classified secrets re: nuclear subs below the fold on A13 might suggest the Paper of Record is not quite as liberal as people think 🙃
"Reversal" is absolutely false.
Fact: Congress is forcing us to do this under a 2019 law.
Fact: We called on Congress to cancel these funds. They didn't.
We follow the rule of law.
Congress needs to stop delaying the effective border solutions @POTUS proposed.
Breaking ABC: Months after leaving office, Trump allegedly discussed potentially sensitive information about U.S. nuclear submarines with a member of Mar-a-Lago — an Australian billionaire who then allegedly shared the information with scores of others. https://t.co/GnNWHB8Max
