This Veterans Day, let's recall some of the many ways Trump has denigrated our service members. 🧵

The Trevor Project reported a 700 percent increase in crisis calls from LGBTQ+ youth after the election.

Let that sink in.

i remember when trump won in 2016, the next morning my entire class of 13 year olds were stressed and instead of having our english lesson, we sat round in a circle talking about how horrible this situation was. we live in england.

Weird.

I don’t think we’re grappled enough with the psychic and dignity harm women have experienced in having a rapist elevated to a position of superlative power and authority by half the country and then kept there for the better part of a decade.

One reason pollsters might be failing to pick up what and Seltzer picked up in Iowa, is a lot of women are afraid to say they are voting for Harris.

Sharing stories yesterday after knocking doors in Pennsylvania, can't tell you the number of canvassers who had wives standing in the background while speaking to the husband and having them mouth something to the effect that they were voting for Harris. Or if they answered the door, they pretended to not say who they were voting for out loud and then whispered they were voting for Harris. It's kind of heartbreaking actually.

As of this week, Americans will get automatic refunds if their flights are altered because of a cancellation or significant delay.

That’s a big deal for folks who will be flying to visit loved ones this holiday season.

A reminder:

It was Jared Kushner and the Trump administration who gave @washingtonpost writer Jamal Khashoggi to the Saudis, dismembered with a bone saw and liquefied in sulfuric acid.

But in a contest between Harris and Trump, Jeff Bezos can't make an endorsement.

Dear Black Men Supporting Trump,
I'd like to introduce you to this man, Lee Atwater. Now, you may not know who Lee Atwater is, but he's had a profound impact on your life over the past 50ish years. You see, he's the architect of a thing called the Southern Strategy...

A new report from Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse finds fresh evidence the Trump White House tightly controlled the FBI investigation into the sexual assault claims against Brett Kavanaugh.

The Trump White House never authorized the agency to independently probe the assault allegations. https://t.co/TkBAX1FZGr

It was pretty easy to work out the vast majority of people identified in Jack Smith’s brief — which was partially by design. It makes the sealing exercise a bit silly, especially since most of the details in the brief were known, at least in broad strokes.

[Jake Sheridan @JakeSheridan_]

When local news outlets are bought by greedy corporations and run into the ground, people suffer. Critical information is unavailable, suffering goes overlooked, leaders aren’t scrutinized.

This is happening everywhere.

[Art Candee 🍿🥤 @ArtCandee]

Oh.

JD Vance didn't even to bother to vote in the 2018, 2019, 2020, And 2021 primary elections.

This man is a joke.

[Wajahat Ali @WajahatAli]

I think the main focus should be RFK JR, a married man running for President and current ally and supporter of Trump and MAGA, engaged in a sexting affair with reporter who was writing about him.
