A reminder when you vote 1000 FBI agents were assigned just to redact Donald Trumpโ€™s name from the Epstein files. I was in court with a guy. He was a monster. Ghislaine Maxwell was a monster. And itโ€™s the biggest cover-up in US history.
This is why homeschoolers and Christian Nationalists refuse to allow authentic educators to teach kids about good touch/bad touch.

We are destined for victory. There is no other outcome, and there can be no question of compromises or concessions." ................. I truly admire their determination๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Wow๐Ÿซก

There is no path (at least not legally)
BREAKING: Reuters reports the Trump White House is mapping out a path to govern without Congress if Democrats win on Tuesday. Donโ€™t tell me Trump isnโ€™t fascist ever again!

Seems like itโ€™s a good idea not to elect Republicans
WARS. Why do the republicans always start the wars after Vietnam??? George W. Bush started TWO of them. Obama and Biden ENDED them. Then Donald Trump started this current WAR with IRAN. For no good reason. Those brave people who serve in our military deserve so much better.

Fantastic news! Congratulations to everyone involved!
THE DIESEL DEAL COLLAPSES Legal departments at American terminals have introduced a requirement to include a Non-Russian Origin Guarantee clause in contracts, with severe penalties for violations. In addition, an attempt to bring a trial shipment of Russian diesel into the Port of New York failed because dockworkers refused to unload it. State authorities have also notified port services that logistics companies will not be granted permits to dock and unload tankers carrying fuel from Russia. P.S.

A lot is happening right now. Make a note to yourself to remember, heading into the midterm elections in a year, that GOP senators & reps asking you to vote for them were willing to starve their constituentsโ€”your friends, family, maybe even youโ€”for Trump.

The Trump Administration has now warned Middle East Countries like Qatar and Saudi Arabia that after the midterms most likely the day after intense strikes will start in Iran and the U.S will be using the Mother of all Bombs.These strikes will be worse than ever before and there will most likely be many lives lost including American soldiers. Someone better stop him and Hegseth now before they kill a Country of people.

THEY TRIED TO CANCEL HIM. SO HE BUILT HIS OWN STAGE. Macklemore just wrapped a 3-city European tour. Every arena sold out. โ–ช๏ธ 100% of proceeds went to 12 organizations providing aid to Palestinians. โ–ช๏ธ Guests included Hozier, Greta Thunberg, and UN Rapporteur Francesca Albanese. โ–ช๏ธ Lineups were kept secret until showtime to avoid backlash. Instead of backing down after being pulled from a massive US tour, he turned his platform into a fundraising machine for Gaza. A real one. ๐Ÿงญ

France is showing the world what real accountability looks like. Paris prosecutors have launched a major criminal investigation into Elon Muskโ€™s X, raided its Paris offices and summoned Musk and former CEO Linda Yaccarino for questioning. The allegations are staggering, political manipulation through algorithms, child sexual abuse material, sexually explicit deepfakes generated by Grok without consent, Holocaust denial, unlawful data extraction and election interference. While Musk parades around pretending to be a defender of free speech, his platform faces allegations involving the exploitation of children, the sexual abuse of women through AI-generated imagery, the manipulation of political discourse and threats to democratic elections. Bravo, France! This is what standing up to billionaire arrogance looks like. Democracy is not a billionaire's personal playground, social media platforms are not above the law, and Elon Musk does not get to buy himself immunity from accountability. France is making it clear that the rule of law still matters, and the rest of the democratic world should be paying attention.

Thank you! You are absolutely correct
Pretty soon, youโ€™re going to start to hear people tell you that itโ€™s time to move on. Theyโ€™ll say that accountability is too divisive, too hard, too costly. But here at The Rule of Law Project, we know that the rule of law is not self-executing. It is a culture sustained by the shared expectation that the law binds and protects everyone. Rebuilding that culture will take successful prosecutions. But it will take more than that. It will take a public that demands accountability, and elected officials who are committed to โ€œa government of laws, not of men.โ€ Thatโ€™s why The Rule of Law Project is committed to winning the argument that criminal conduct by public officials must carry criminal consequences โ€” and that no one, regardless of badge, office, or influence, is above the law.

Almost the entire US media and political establishment wants us to ignore this
Macklemore's support for HEAL Palestine directly benefits injured Gaza children. Last night, he met four injured Gaza children who attended his Paris concert. Saher, 8, Hala, 19, Dima, 16, and Malak, 7, They thanked Macklemore for supporting Palestine and the children of Gaza.

Proud and grateful that Ukraine has a friend like you, Josรฉ. Thank you to you and the entire World Central Kitchen team for the warmth of your dishes and hearts.
As the great people of Oleshky arrived to Ukraine after a long trip @WCKitchen lead by Yuliya is ready with borscht, and many other Ukranian dishes! The route was long: from Oleshky through Crimea to Anapa in Russia, then a flight to Belarus and onward by road into Chernihiv region. After a journey like that, warm, good food matters a great deal. #ChefsForUkraine Proud that the teams were first in Irpin and Bucha, in Khersonโ€ฆ.so many special powerful moments! now hereโ€ฆUkrainians are the best of us!

As Iโ€™ve been saying since 2014, if you think defending Ukraine is expensive, Russia winning would be exponentially more so.
JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon warns a Russian victory in Ukraine could shatter global alliances, reshape the world economy, and force nations to question whether they can still rely on America. ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Asked what a Russian victory in Ukraine would mean for the global economy, Dimon responded: โ€œIt could be a potential disaster. This is the first war in Europe where a free, democratic nation was invaded by 200,000 or 300,000 Russian soldiers under the threat of nuclear blackmail. Weโ€™ve never had nuclear blackmail before. Youโ€™re also teaching the whole world that maybe having nuclear weapons is a pretty good thing, because people will be afraid of you, and you can abuse a neighbor if you feel like it. Russia would be on the border of NATO. Obviously, NATO is rearming right now. But the other thing is, itโ€™s affecting all alliances, military alliances and global economic alliances. And the nexus of Iran, North Korea, and China makes it very hard, in my view, for the Chinese-American relationship. China says theyโ€™re neutral, but theyโ€™re helping. We are clearly not neutral. If Russia wins, you might see a lot of people deciding: Will America stand up for Europe? Can you rely on them? And if you canโ€™t rely on them, what are you going to do? That includes economically. Every nation is going to say, what makes me secure? Energy, food, all the things I need. Iโ€™m worried that if Russia wins, you could see the world enter a little bit of chaos as people realign alliances and economic relationships.โ€
