The UK has a shadow cabinet - political positions within the party that isn’t in power - and so should we. Plus, we need weekly press briefings led by @petebuttigieg.bsky.social on the state of the union. Business-as-usual time is over.

67 fake bomb threats on Election Day 2024. Almost all of them targeting heavily Democratic cities — which had lower turnout than in 2020. Many of the threats were clearly traced to Russia. And the mainstream media and establishment have somehow COMPLETELY FORGOTTEN.

I’ve heard a couple of people propose an Opposition Cabinet - qualified people - to counter each of Trump’s unqualified, incompetent, lackey Appointees. I think this is a great idea. Who agrees?

At first glance, this photo of two fighter jets appears entirely commonplace. In reality, it is anything but. That's a Russian Su-57 Felon and an American-made Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II. They've been sharing the same space in India since Monday. Learn more:

The CFPB has returned $21 billion to 205 million consumers who were scammed at the hands of predatory banks. You can root out waste, fraud, and abuse... or you can eliminate the CFPB. But you can't do both.

The CFPB is one of the American people’s best defenses against waste, fraud, and abuse. Demolishing it will, of course, lead to more waste, fraud, and abuse.

So the rumor is all of this scared the crap out of the Trump Regime and they are quietly assuring that the tariffs will be very short lived. Looking for a face saving way to pretend Trump won something.

I absolutely love how quickly Canadians started placing signs in their businesses to discourage customers from buying any American products and I also love how Prime Minister Justin Trudeau specifically targeted Red States in retaliation. I love you Canada, I’m rooting for you.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg wisely said, “The true symbol of the United States is not the bald eagle—it is the pendulum.” Today, that pendulum has swung too far from justice, democracy, and freedom. It’s on us to push it back. To fight, to protest, to rise. The future is ours to reclaim.

I have reached 450,000 people today. My message is this. There is one way back to normalcy, and that way is the Democratic Party. We have special elections coming up in a just a few months and a massive backlash election that restores our government in 21 months. Ride Or Die 💙 ☠️ 💙☠️💙
