Ossoff: We see a faithless president, self-dealing, while he depicts himself as Christ, while he depicts the Obamas as apes, while he plunges the nation recklessly into war, plunders our health care, and sends prices soaring. 

And while the people pay more than ever for groceries and housing and health care, he builds a monument to himself. 

While a cancer patient loses health coverage, he adorns his office in gold. 

Voting rights laws are dismantled, prisons for immigrants are full of children, and all the while we see this wickedness advanced and defended by those who wrap themselves in the banner of righteous faith. 

But we ask, where in Scripture are we commanded to deny care to the sick, to take from those with the least to give to those with the most, to violate the house of worship to hunt down the refuge

Trump says that any money that is unfrozen for Iran will be used to buy food exclusively through the United States from American farmers.

Here’s another bullshit promise to bookmark.

Retired 4-Star Navy Admiral and former Navy SEAL William McRaven on Donald Trump: "Through your actions, you have embarrassed us in the eyes of our children, humiliated us on the world stage and, worst of all, divided us as a nation."

RETWEET if you stand with Admiral McRaven!

BREAKINGNEWS Trump lied by claiming the vandalism was done by a knife and the contractors aren't at fault. Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool has 24 hour live feed. There is no evidence of any such claim. Trump should be held accountable for lying. 🚨

BREAKING: RUB IT IN! Gov. Tim Walz takes a well-deserved victory lap after a federal judge tossed out the "unlawful" subpoenas that Trump's corrupt Justice Department filed against him.

Share this far and wide to trigger MAGA fans...

"Today's ruling is a victory for the rule of law and our democracy. A federal district judge found that the U.S. Department of Justice’s investigation into me and other Minnesota elected officials was politically motivated, unconstitutional, and meritless," Walz stated.

"I am proud to have joined Minnesotans in exercising our fundamental American freedoms - of speech, assembly, to disagree with our government. These rights are enshrined in our Constitution. And, they are what makes America great."

"An independent judiciary is a pillar of our democracy. It’s one reason why the U.S. has been that shining city on the hill for nearly 250 years."

"The U.S. Justice Department is pursuing criminal investigations into the President’s political opponents. This case was just one example of that, but we are seeing daily reminders of this administration’s lawlessness – in Minnesota and around the country. We all must continue to seek justice and uphold the rule of law."

"I will never stop exercising my constitutional rights to stand up for Minnesotans and the American freedoms that we hold dear," the governor concluded.

Earlier today, U.S. District Judge Patrick Schiltz threw out grand jury subpoenas against Walz, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, St. Paul Mayor Kaohly Her, as well as commissioners in Ramsey and Hennepin counties. They had been targeted for daring to stand up to Trump's draconian immigration crackdowns.

Judge Schiltz stated that there's "no doubt" that the Justice Department pursued the subpoenas in order to "harass" the President's political enemies.

"And, of course, this campaign played out against the backdrop of the Trump administration’s well-established history of using criminal investigations to retaliate against and pressure the President’s political and personal adversaries,” the judge added.

This amounts to a humiliating public defeat for Donald Trump and total validation of the Democratic Party's messaging about this President's blatant corruption and weaponization of the once nonpartisan Justice Department. We have to spread this news far and wide!

Please ❤️ and share to congratulate Tim Walz!

If you steal a paint chip it's 10 years in prison but take what you want from our Capitol, that's worth a pardon.

[James Tate @JamesTate121]

Step 1: Remove filters in Reflecting Pool because Obama put them in.
Step 2: Give your criminal neighbor who runs "Greenwater Services" a $20 million no-bid contract to paint the pool.
Step 3: Fill the pool with water from the Potomac River, the phosphates from which cause algae blooms.
Step 4: Freshly sealed pool and extreme heat result in a super scum event
Step 5: Direct National Park Service to dump hydrogen peroxide into the pool which causes the paint to peel.
Step 5: Deploy US National Guard to stop people from taking photos of the swamp as a perfect metaphor for the administration.
Step 6: Blame someone else.

So let me get this straight: Pulling a chunk of paint out of the Reflecting Pool gets you arrested for vandalism, but trump’s terrorists who attacked the Capitol, killed cops, broke windows, stole shit, and smeared their feces on the walls get to go free?

BREAKING: THANK YOU! Music legend Sheryl Crow shreds Trump's UFC fight on the White House lawn and the smear of Michelle Obama as "disgraceful" in a scathing takedown.

She put into words EXACTLY what we're all feeling...

"To stay quiet means to turn a blind eye. And so I am saying this. What happened last night on the lawn of the White House was disgraceful and void of decency," the singer wrote on her Instagram story.

"Powerful, rich people filled the lawn to watch a violent sport that ended with a vile and racist comment. All while the average American cannot afford healthcare, gas, and cost of living," she continued.

"Do not be fooled. This administration is corrupt and does not give a damn about the American people," she went on. "It only cares about making money hand over fist at the expense and in spite of our democracy. If we continue to support this kind of distraction from reality, we are no better than them."

"Let's be better, America.”

The "vile and racist comment" in question came from fighter Josh Hokit who yelled out "Michelle Obama is a man!" It was a racist trope, with a long history in America, which asserts that Black women are inherently less feminine than white women. It's designed to dehumanize and humiliate people of color.

Hokit has a history of bigotry. At a previous UFC event, he called WNBA All-Star Brittney Griner, a Black woman, a "man." Clearly, this man feels at home in the MAGA movement because he's surrounded by other white racists.

Trump, predictably, didn't condemn Hokit's remarks. In fact, CNN reported that the President was seen showing a "half-smile” in response to the insult.

The American presidency has hit rock bottom.

Please ❤️ and share to thank Sheryl Crow for speaking out!
