As I listen to reports of honoring President Jimmy Carter, I can only imagine the mental gymnastics going on with some who voted for President Trump. Honor vs. hate. Diplomat vs. dictator. Integrity vs. liar. Faith vs. anger. Peace vs. war.

Mike Johnson claimed yesterday that he was reading a prayer written by Thomas Jefferson. Except it wasn't. Historians who are familiar with it say it’s not accurate to attribute it to Jefferson or to suggest he recited it daily. Clown. Show.

Until a member of Congress goes to jail for theft and/or fraud, these offenses are going to keep happening. It is time for us to publicly declare—if by no means accept—that both DOJ and the FBI have no problem whatsoever with politicians defrauding their donors or stealing money from voters. None.

Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry says the only way to defeat evil is with the guy who cheated on all his wives, who was found liable of sexual assault, convicted of 34 felonies, and incited insurrection against America. Sheer hypocritical stupidity.

You like Trump? Tell us why 24 of his own appointees turn against him? Even his second Secretary of defense says, “I think he’s unfit for office. … He puts himself before country.” www.cnn.com/2023/10/03/p...

Trumps, Fox, Marge, etc. all immediately rushed to pin New Orleans on immigrants, and Trump lied about the crime rate — but the suspect was a U.S.-born veteran who grew up in Texas, and the crime rate is down. In case facts still matter.

🧵 AN OPPORTUNITY TO SOLVE A PROBLEM We lost ground—not just w/young Black men, but w/men of all backgrounds. Let’s figure out how to make gains. The party has a listening problem. Showing up 2 weeks before an election won’t cut it. Engagement needs to be year-round, local, focused on real issues.

On Inauguration Day, I will be looking at the flags flying at half-staff in honor of Jimmy Carter’s life. In passing, he took some glory from Trump! Rest in peace & power, sir. We will keep her, continue to resist, and bring America back to all its glory -soon. Kiss Rosalynn -if that’s a thing! 🙏🏼

A GOP member of the House DOGE Caucus admitted yesterday that cuts to Social Security and Medicare are "on the table". Don't be fooled: the real mission of DOGE isn't to make government more "efficient". It's to slash the social safety net on behalf of the billionaires.

The incoming Trump Administration is stacked with billionaires. His cabinet’s net worth is greater than the GDP of 169 different countries. Their top priority is a tax cut and they plan to pay for it by gutting Medicare, Medicaid, and privatizing Social Security. Let that sink in for a minute…
