This. Race. Is. About. Racism. Trump's followers are RACISTS as is he and that's why they love him. #racism

You sent your troops here without fuel, food, water or a place to sleep.
Here they are — being forced to sleep on the floor, piled on top of one another.
If anyone is treating our troops disrespectfully, it is you @realDonaldTrump.

PERFECTLY SAID:
Sen. Chris Murphy: “Trump is aligning with dictators to transition American into an oligarchy. If the U.S’s closest partner is Russia, then (it’s) easier for Trump, Musk, and their billionaire pals to steal from the American people.”

BREAKING: One of Norway’s largest fuel companies, Haltbakk Bunkers, will no longer provide fuel to US forces overseas after Trump’s mistreatment and disrespect of Ukrainian President Zelensky yesterday.
They say "No Fuel to Americans!" and they are encouraging other Norwegians and Europeans to do the same.
Trump is making America the adversary of our allies and the ally of our adversaries.

One big difference between Democrats and Republicans is that Republicans never stop campaigning, while too many Democrats still think it’s 1992 and they need to crank things up 6 months before an election.

Chris Hayes on Trump testing Senate Republicans with his Matt Gaetz pick: "He basically wants them to crawl through the Capitol in their underwear and eat dog food out of a can in front of everyone like some fraternity hazing ritual. This is a humiliation exercise." youtube.com/watch?v=dSCjst9x…

Matt Gaetz shouldn’t be able to resign away an ethics investigation.
RT if you agree.

Trump is a figurehead. The GOP a proxy
What we’re dealing with an oligarchical power grab designed to align the US with authoritarian regimes, crush our economy, dismantle democracy, and create an exploited labor force under the thumb of the wealth class

Democrats, find a spine. Play hardball. Talk about this nonstop and somehow get the report out there.

I just spoke to a Florida election lawyer: Matt Gaetz can’t resign his new term early, so his seat will be vacant from January 3 to February 28, 2025.
That leaves Speaker Johnson short a crucial Republican vote for nearly 3.5 months.

Kevin McCarthy on Matt Gaetz: “I'll give you the truth why I'm not speaker. It's because one person, a member of Congress, wanted me to stop an ethics complaint because he slept with a 17-year-old…”

I said it to @BlakeOnTheHill the day after the election and I’ll say it again, @POTUS you need to pardon your son.

The story of Matt Gaetz’s dead roommate needs more daylight.
Not enough people know about the dead college roommate... Some journalist needs to ask Matt Gaetz about this story from August 2016 before he became well known:

I've been saying this for ten years...
To catch a rat, you have to go into the sewer.
And Democrats have not been willing to do that.
IT IS THE ONLY WAY FORWARD.
IT IS THE ONLY WAY TO WIN.

"What's needed are well-funded and well-staffed legal, policy, political and media organizations that devote themselves full-time to deep dives on Trump abuses. They can coordinate with congressional Democrats and other anti-Trump officials."

BREAKING:
German Vice Chancellor Robert Habeck:
"The regulation of algorithms, of X or TikTok, through the application of European legal norms is a central task.
We cannot place “democratic discourse” in the hands of @elonmusk or Chinese software”

“And it’s the crucial one: Why didn’t a majority of voters see these things? And understanding the answer to that question is how we start to dig out of this tragic mess.
The answer is the right-wing media. Today, the right-wing media—Fox News (and the entire News Corp.), Newsmax, One America News Network, the Sinclair network of radio and TV stations and newspapers, iHeart Media (formerly Clear Channel), the Bott Radio Network (Christian radio), Elon Musk’s X, the huge podcasts like Joe Rogan’s, and much more—sets the news agenda in this country. And they fed their audiences a diet of slanted and distorted information that made it possible for Trump to win.”
"It wasn’t the economy," @mtomasky says. "It wasn’t inflation, or anything else. It was how people perceive those things, which points to one overpowering answer" — the right-wing media. newrepublic.com/post/188197/…
