Trump’s Presidency was a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

@MarcoFoster_ @joncoopertweets @jamestalarico @TeamTalaricoHQ This is one of my biggest resentments about the rich. I pay about 25% of my earnings taxes and I’m glad to do it. After a million they could at least pay 25% of the rest. And everyone could have good healthcare. And we could house our unhoused.

James Talarico: “Young people can’t afford to buy a home, but Jeff Bezos has 12. Young people can’t afford to fill up their gas tank, but Mark Zuckerberg is launching helicopters from his mega-yacht. Young people pay more than their fair share of income taxes, but someone like Elon Musk can get away without paying a penny”

@KenRoth @gma4resistance Pedos stick together. Nasty small membered men for the most part. Criminal at best.

Trump blocks visas for Costa Rica's leading newspaper because it broke a sexual abuse scandal involving the country's current president, who is a Trump ally. trib.al/Dx8kpjY

@MAGACult2 @TheFive Hitler 101.

He doesn’t have 8 or 9 months!

@OfTheBraveUSA @ProjectLincoln Things were great when Biden left office. Let’s tell the truth why don’t we?

Florida resident on Trump's ballroom: "He should be focusing on lowering these prices that he jacked up, because it wasn't this high before he became president…He don't need to be talking about ballrooms, man. You need to be trying to fix the economy."

@PlanetTyrus Trump has no empathy. If you think he does, I want your view of how he has shown empathy.

@tedlieu Mark of a dictator @TheFive.

I have a red line in determining which Democrat I will support for President. That person must commit to removing the stain of trump’s name from every single federal building, and kick it off with a grand public ceremony. With fireworks. You think I’m kidding. I’m not kidding.

Yes. True all dat.

Mockler: Republicans have the power right now to pass a national ban on gerrymandering, but instead they’re allowing Trump to drag the country into the depths of hell.

This is what fascism looks like I’m America. Trump’s judicial nominees refuse to say that Trump is ineligible to run for a third term, The 22nd Amendment, ratified in 1951, specifically says: “No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.” There is no interpretation needed. These nominees should not be approved.

It should probably be a bigger story that Donald Trump offered John Fetterman a significant “financial windfall” if he switches parties and becomes a Republican. I know nobody bats an eye at the corruption oozing out of this White House anymore, but that’s fucking insane, and we shouldn’t ignore it.

BREAKING: Senator Raphael Warnock unleashes hell on the Supreme Court for weakening the Voting Rights Act, calling it "21st Century Jim Crow." This is the fiery passion of a Baptist pastor on full display... “Gerrymandering turns our elections on its head, so that rather than the people picking their politicians or their public servants, the politicians are picking their voters!" Warnock said on CBS News. He was attacking the Republican-controlled Supreme Court's jaw-dropping ruling that Louisiana’s majority Black district is illegal, essentially gutting a pillar of the Voting Rights Act in the process. The decision amounts to a blatant endorsement of MAGA gerrymandering and serves as a sobering reminder of just how corrupt and partisan the court has become. “What happened this week is nothing less than a massive and devastating blow, not only to our democracy, but particularly to people of color in the South," said Warnock. "This question about intent is on its head, misleading, and it ignores our history.” Justice Samuel A. Alito wrote on behalf of the right-wing majority that anyone who wants to challenge a map must prove "intentionality" on the part of the map makers to weaken the voting power of a specific race. The decision flies directly in the face of the text, design, and spirit of the Voting Rights Act because, as Justice Elena Kagan wrote, it's "well-nigh impossible" to find irrefutable evidence of racist intent. Congress knew that, which is why the designed the Act the way that they did. With this ruling, the Supreme Court is directly challenging the right of Congress to pass legislation and is doing so for nakedly political reasons. “We had 100 years after the 15th Amendment was passed, which, on paper, gave Black people the right to vote, but with supposedly or putatively race neutral methods. For 100 years, the right to vote was denied,” Warnock continued. “We will see a devastating impact as a result of this, and now, more than ever, we’ve got to stand up and fight for our democracy,” he added. The senator called the ruling “21st Century Jim Crow tactics in new clothes” and said the court has "given the green light so that politicians can play games with the lines, so that even when you overcome those barriers and show up, your voices will be muted." “I think that the court sadly poured fuel on this redistricting arms race,” he said. Do you think that Democrats should gerrymander back even harder? Please ❤️ and share if you support the Voting Rights Act!

INCREDIBLE! Washington Post journalist Hannah Natanson who had Trump’s FBI raid her home and take her phones and laptops, just won the Pulitzer Prize with the Washington Post. Congrats!!

@TheFive Hitler would ban voting by mail, while always voting by mail himself. That’s a fascist dictator move.

@TheFive Trump Hitler is out of control. He’s a dictator using our government against us. Threatening our voting rights?

In 1981, Jimmy Carter walked out of the White House. He had been the most powerful man in the world. Leader of the United States. Commander-in-Chief. A man with access to anything, anywhere. Then suddenly, it was over. Most former presidents take a different path. Million-dollar speeches. Book deals. Private jets. A life far removed from ordinary people. Carter didn’t do that. He went home. Back to Plains, Georgia. A small town. No spotlight. No luxury lifestyle. And then he did something almost no one expected. He picked up a hammer. With Habitat for Humanity, Carter started building houses for people who couldn’t afford one. Not posing for photos. Not supervising. Working. Sweating under the sun. Carrying wood. Hammering nails. Side by side with volunteers. Year after year. Into his 70s. Into his 80s. Even into his 90s. This wasn’t a one-time gesture. He helped build and repair thousands of homes across the world. The same man who once sat behind the most powerful desk on Earth was now on rooftops, fixing homes for strangers. No cameras needed. No applause required. While others chased wealth after power, Carter chose something else. Service. He lived longer than any U.S. president in history. Long enough for people to look back and realize something simple. Power didn’t define him. What he did after power did. And in a world where leaders often take, he kept giving. Story based on historical records. This post is for educational purposes.

@WNBA Dallas ‘bout to bust a bill on Vegas.

@RossKneeDeep @SoulReaper2222 I believe Musk hacked into the computer system.

When we look back on why Trump won this election, it won't be because he was a better choice. Kamala was more than qualified. She was one of the most qualified persons to run for office in a very long time. She offered Americans $25,000 towards their first home. She offered $50,000 to small businesses. She offered intelligence and critical thinking. Yet, Amerca decided to go with dimwitted criminal with 34 felony counts, a convicted sexual abuser, a fail businessman, accused of being a pedophile who tried to overthrow the government. As we look at the absolute chaos trump has caused in one year, the is was it worth it? Who's benefiting from Trump being the president? Why didn't Kamala win?

@atrupar I’m glad he interviewed him. Barney is still sharp. He’s dying with dignity and relevance. Good for him.

CNN brought on Barney Frank this morning and suffice it say he's in pretty tough shape
