🚨Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), says forthcoming report on Trump assassination attempt "will absolutely shock the American people."
"I think the American people are going to be shocked, astonished & appalled by what we will report to them about the failures by the Secret Service in this assassination attempt on the former President."
"I think they also ought to be appalled & astonished by the failure of the Department of Homeland Security."
The Republican primary in New York’s 3rd district has turned into a selection, not an election.
First, some background: The Nassau County GOP intended to never have a primary in New York’s 3rd district. The leadership of the Nassau GOP strategically decided to coronate their establishment candidate to prevent the people of the 3rd district from deciding who their Republican nominee would be in an open, free, and transparent election.
Before the ballot access period finished, the Nassau GOP endorsed their candidate to prevent the many other candidates from having a fair shot. This is a classic political machine tactic for which they are pretty famous. The Nassau GOP challenged the petitions of every candidate in the Republican primary except one—their candidate, Mike LiPetri.
The establishment elite intend to destroy the primary and prevent voters from having a choice. Four of the five candidates are now being challenged by two proxies for the Nassau County GOP and the Mike LePetri campaign. It's an effort to create a veil of secrecy to create plausible deniability by the Nassau GOP leadership.
The candidates who were challenged, including myself, are now uniting to take a stand against these undemocratic, opaque, and sleazy tactics of the republican establishment machine. Open the primary now. Today, we call on you, Mike LePetri, to stand against this blatant insider move to prevent voters from having a choice in the June Republican primary.
Tell them how you feel

It’s clear Americans want to break free from the two-party system. Let’s unite around our shared values and get down to business. Our elected officials spend more time fighting across the aisle than actually improving the lives of their constituents.
