Trump signed an exec order to ban TikTok in 2020, claiming it was a national security threat. Now that Congress formally banned it, he calls it a ‘disaster’ and vows to bring it back on Day 1. He didn’t change his mind—his billionaire donors did. #TikTokBan

We’re all about taking the high road, but SCOTUS literally told us to question Trump’s eligibility to be president on Jan. 6 when they blocked Colorado from disqualifying him. So why aren’t we even asking the question? #Democracy #SCOTUS #Jan6 #Trump #Accountability #ElectionIntegrity #WeThePeople

Disqualifying Fani Willis and her entire office over a personal relationship unrelated to the Trump case sets a dangerous precedent. Are we really going to let ‘appearance of impropriety’ be weaponized this way? This wouldn’t fly for anyone else. #JusticeNotPolitics #TrumpCase #FaniWillis

Trump says he wants to end DST, but as usual, he gets it wrong. We need to end standard time and make DST permanent. Who needs sunlight at 6am in Central Illinois when we can’t even take a walk at 4pm because it’s already dark? #MakeDSTPermanent

Shouldn't Biden pardon everyone Trump has said he'll go after: Fauci, Cheney, Jack Smith, etc?

Remember 2000 Mules? The “documentary” Trump and MAGA touted as “proof” of election fraud in 2020? Well, its creator, Dinesh D’Souza, is now admitting the claims were false—AFTER the 2024 elections, of course. Can we expect apologies from Trump and the rioters? #2000Mules #ElectionFraud #Jan6

Trump’s 2024 ‘mandate’? 43k votes across WI, MI, & PA—just 0.028% of the 153M who voted—decided the election. A razor-thin margin in 3 states doesn’t reflect overwhelming support. Let’s call it what it is: a narrowly won presidency, not a mandate. #Election2024 #MandateMyth

Pam Bondi, Trump’s AG nominee, took $25K from Trump while reviewing Trump University allegations—no action followed. Corruption is a given with Trump picks. That said, at least she’s been an attorney general before. Sadly, this might be the best we can hope for.

Senate Democrats allowing Trump to fill FOUR appeals court seats is a betrayal. Republicans blocked Garland and never returned the favor. Why do Dems keep conceding ground? Stand up for our courts! #DoYourJob #ProtectOurCourts

So let me get this straight: people voted for Trump because they were upset about high prices… and now Walmart, Lowe’s, and other companies are warning that Trump’s tariffs will raise prices even more. This is exactly what you voted for. Make it make sense #TrumpTariffs www.cnbc.com/2024/11/19/w...

McConnell stood on the Senate floor & said Trump was guilty of the crimes for which he was impeached. Yet he gave senators a cop-out, claiming the Senate couldn’t convict someone who left office, even though precedent didn’t support that. Now here we are, stuck in this nightmare. Thanks Moscow Mitch

Obergefell isn’t just about marriage. It affirmed that LGBT people are entitled to equal protection under the law, ensuring we can’t be discriminated against in marriage or ANY OTHER area. Overturning it risks undermining all those protections. #Equality

1/ 🚨 Constitutional crisis incoming? Some suggest Trump may bypass the Senate to install Matt Gaetz as Attorney General. Here’s how he could exploit the system to make it happen—and why it’s terrifying. 🧵 #Trump #MattGaetz #Constitution
