Pretty simple.

Hitler was elected chancellor of Germany with only 43.9% of the vote.

But because the anti-Hitler forces were divided, Hitler won.

Hitler then made himself dictator and abolished free elections.

The abortion-rights position won all 6 state ballot measures in 2022.

That included swing Michigan and red Kansas, Kentucky and Montana.

Looks like Ohio will add another red state to the list. And like most of the others, it's not close.

[QuoteDigger @QuoteDigging]

@PalmerReport Biden endorsed Andy Beshear. Trump endorsed Daniel Cameron. The result? Beshear beats Cameron in a red state.

Ignore the Anti-Biden media narrative. It’s fake.

The mass shooting tonight was in Lewiston, Maine.

Maine senator Susan Collins has expressed concern about the shooting.

Susan Collins voted AGAINST renewing the assault weapons ban -- and AGAINST a ban on high-capacity magazines that allow mass shooters to kill faster.

[Shannon Watts @shannonrwatts]

MAINE DOES NOT:

Require background checks on all gun sales
Have a red flag law
Prevent domestic abusers from accessing guns
Ban assault weapons
Limit magazine capacity
Require concealed carry permits
Restrict open carry
Have a waiting period

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: A bipartisan bill was introduced that would block members of Congress from getting paid if the U.S. enters debt default or if the government shuts down.

The No Pay for Congress During Default or Shutdown Act, introduced by Reps. Abigail Spanberger (D-VA) and Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA), would withhold lawmakers' pay for the duration of a debt limit breach or lapse in federal funding, an attempt to motivate legislators to prevent either situation.

The bill comes amid growing fears that Republicans will not agree to meet the June 1 deadline set by the Treasury Department to raise the debt limit and risk a catastrophic default on U.S. obligations.

“Lawmakers should not be rewarded with our salaries until we do our jobs," Spanberger said.

What are your thoughts? Should it pass?

The leading Republican candidate has been found liable for sexual assault and fraud, his companies found guilty of fraud, and he's charged with 91 OTHER felony counts.
That he is not dismissed politically out of hand says much more about us, than about him.

[Deacon Blues @lusstylucy]

Really NBC? For years we told you to fire Chuck Todd. So you replace him with Kristen Welker, whose first guest this Sunday will be - Donald Trump! No one watch. Give MTP the lowest ratings in history. There will people who have to watch who can tell us what happened.

[The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln]

From voting against cheaper Insulin, cheaper gas, more baby formula, veteran cancer care, upholding the 2020 election... The GOP routinely votes against things that will help average Americans, but a sham Biden impeachment is what they choose to focus on.

Vote them all out.

“Would you resign if the committee concludes that you committed wrongdoing?”

“….. no”

[Tracy Longo @luckylongo]

This is a must watch. Especially after all of the 9/11 remembrances, news clips and “never forget” posts.

[Ryan Shead @RyanShead]

You can’t fake this kind of passion and anger. 🇺🇸

This is why so many Americans want to see Jon Stewart run for public office. We need smart people who sincerely care filling seats in Congress.

…not representatives who can’t be bothered to sit in them when September 11th first responders came asking for better medical care.

The average FDNY and NYPD response time on 9/11 was 5 seconds.

…Congresses response time was 18 years.

That tells us all we need to know about those men and women that day and how terrible our government treated them.

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

Last year, 30 Republicans voted against the 'Fairness for 9/11 Families Act' that provided compensation and relief to victims and their surviving family members including widows and dependent children.

Today, they have the nerve to tweet 'never forget.'

22 years after 9/11, we’re still taking off our shoes at the airport, but you can easily procure a military grade assault weapon and bring it to any:

—Bank
—Casino
—Church
—Theater
—Workplace
—Retail store
—Public Event
—Supermarket
—School/Campus
—Synagogue
—Apartment Building

DON’T FORGET: The Trump administration tried its hardest to reign in TikTok, but under its watch, the largest oil refinery in the United States was sold to Saudi Arabia’s OPEC— A gang of the largest oil-producing countries.

The Motiva Refinery, recognized as the largest oil refinery in North America, underwent this significant division of assets. During this split, Saudi Aramco assumed complete ownership of the Port Arthur, Texas refinery, while Shell gained ownership of refineries located in Norco and Convent, Louisiana.

Which, by the way, was ultimately sold for over $600 Million dollars to who? … Saudi Arabia. 🛎️

The largest U.S. oil refinery, operated by Motiva Enterprises LLC, is jointly owned by Saudi Aramco, a Saudi Arabian state-owned oil company, and Shell Oil Company, a subsidiary of Royal Dutch Shell. Saudi Aramco holds the majority stake in Motiva. The refinery, situated in Port Arthur, Texas, has substantial capabilities for refining crude oil and manufacturing diverse petroleum products.
