Two of our elementary schools were just evacuated due to threats. Both of our colleges have gone virtual this week due to threats. The city just canceled our annual CultureFest because of threats. None of this was happening before Trump and Vance opened their mouths.

A message to every MAGA Patriot on X: Donald Trump lied to you. Donald Trump told you that Republicans would steal the 2016 primary for Ted Cruz. He wanted you to call it fraud if Ted Cruz won, so he lied to you. He told you Democrats would steal the 2016 general election for Hillary. He wanted you to call it fraud if she won, so he lied to you. He told you they would steal it again in 2020, through mail-in voting, “illegals,” “ballot harvesting,” Dominion voting machines, and more. He wanted you to call it fraud if Biden won, so he lied to you. He expected to lose every time. When he finally did, you still fell for it. But it’s not your fault. Every single person, news outlet, and organization who would profit off a second Trump term repeated his lies so you’d stay firm in your belief and so you’d distrust our system. They thought if they lied enough and got you angry enough, you would help Trump stay in office by doing something crazy... something like storming the Capitol during the electoral college certification. Then they lied to you and said J6 was Antifa and the FBI in disguise, not real Trump supporters. Four years later, Trump is planning a ceremony next month to thank the MAGA supporters who were there that day. If you look at the actual facts and ignore everything Trump and people on TV and social media have said to you to trick you… Here is what we know: Every Trump administration official who testified under penalty of perjury about the 2020 election confirmed there was no evidence of widespread voter fraud or illegal voting. Every lawsuit regarding the 2020 election was dismissed, even by Trump-appointed judges. The only reason you think that you can’t trust our election results, that there is widespread voter fraud, or that Democrats can somehow rig elections is that Trump lost ONE TIME. That’s it. Just once. Is that really so hard to believe, especially considering that so many Americans knew someone who had died from COVID? Folks, he’s already lying to you again. Trump’s team is working on new phony lawsuits for November. They’re even filing lawsuits early to un-enroll tens of thousands of voters in swing states like Arizona. so the margin of victory is close enough to claim “FRAUD!” when he loses. Trump’s team also has a plan to end all election monitoring if he’s re-elected, so Republicans can yell “FRAUD!” again in 2028 with no way for the government to tell if there was fraud or not. They are doing exactly what they accuse Democrats of doing: destroying the integrity of our elections. Don’t. Fall. For. It. If you still can’t believe it, think about this... Here’s Trump last month saying that the Republican Party will have lawyers at every poll booth in November. He’s still going to say there was widespread fraud despute attorneys watching every voting location and despite telling Fox News viewers that he doesn’t need their votes. If you think he’s telling the truth, then you should trust that the election will be safe and secure. The lawyers will stop non-citizens from voting and stop Americans from voting twice. You have nothing to worry about, right? So if he still blames widespread fraud for losing, then he’ll be lying, won’t he? On the other hand, if you agree that having a lawyer at every poll booth isn't possible, then you know he’s lying to you already, right? There IS a corrupt, globalist elite who want to destroy our country and our democracy. But it isn’t the Democrats. It’s the party led by the man who has over a dozen countries around the globe invested in his companies and his presidency. If you are a Trump supporter and this post has made you start to wonder, even a little bit, if it’s true that Trump has been a conman this entire time, you might find some answers at our website. Wishing you all a safe and healthy future, TrumpFile.org

1) inflation-adjusted wages are the highest in US history 2) inflation-adjusted wage growth has been strongest for poorer workers 3) wages at the bottom rose so much, income inequality is down, undoing 1/3 of its growth since Reagan

⚠️ Any racist Manchester United fans 𝗧𝗼 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝘀𝘆𝗹𝘂𝗺 𝘀𝗲𝗲𝗸𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗘𝗿𝗶𝗰 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗼𝗻𝗮. Eric Cantona 🗣 Football gives meaning to your life. I really believe this. But your life, your history, your essence, also gives meaning to your football. I am going to talk about some things that I almost never discuss. I need to tell you a story that shaped everything that I am. It happened before I was even born.We have to go back to 1939, during the Spanish Civil War. My maternal grandfather was from Barcelona, and he fought against the dictator Franco until the bitter end. At the very end of the war, he was a wanted man, and he only had a few minutes to make an escape before the Nationalist soldiers captured the city. He had to cross the Pyrenees mountains on foot to get to France, and he did not have time to say proper goodbyes. This was the end. Life or death. So before he left, he went to find his girlfriend, and he asked her, “Are you ready to follow me?” He was 28 years old. She was 18. She had to leave behind her family, friends, everything. But she said, “Yes, of course.” This was my grandmother. They fled to the refugee camps in Argelès-sur-Mer, on the coast of France. There were more than 100,000 Spanish refugees accepted there. Can you imagine if the French had turned them all away? But no, they showed compassion, as humanity must always show compassion to those who suffer. My grandparents had arrived with nothing. They had to start their lives over. But after some time the refugees were given an opportunity to go to work building a dam in Saint-Étienne Cantalès. This is the life of immigrants. You go where you must. You do what you must. So they went. They made a life for themselves. My mother was born there a few years later, and then the family eventually moved to Marseille. This story is in my blood. It shaped me as a human being.

Many followers not familiar with the military are asking me “so what’s the big deal about a command sergeant major?” Walz joined at 18 as a private. Rose through the NCO (sergeant) ranks, each requiring extreme competence at increasingly demanding jobs with more people & responsibility at every rank. When you reach “Master Sergeant” you are selected to serve as a First Sergeant (1SG) of a unit…if you’re good enough. Then, those 1SGTs compete for selection to Sergeant Major. Only the best Sergeant Majors are selected for Command Sergeant Major (CSM) billets. CSMs serve as the senior enlisted person in the unit and the advisor to Commanders at battalion and above. Having served with dozens of CSMs as my unit & command “battle buddy” I will attest they were all awesome. They know what they’re doing. They uphold standards. They speak their minds to all ranks (private to generals). They’re not afraid of getting bad news because they know how to fix things when they go wrong. And they serve the command (their commander and their soldiers) with a selfless integrity and a complete dedication. During social events and informal occasions, they’re usually a whole bunch of fun. And they always have great stories. But they’re always professional. So, those are my thoughts on Command Sergeants Major. While I don’t know the details of @GovTimWalz career wearing the cloth of our country, just the fact that he volunteered to serve and wore the CSM rank tells me a lot about him.
I like, & am inspired by, Tim Walz, Kamala Harris's VP pick. He has military experience, as a SGT/NCO. Those of us who served know that it's the NCOs that make it all work. He was a HS social studies teacher & football coach. He's direct, plain-spoken, & an honest, honorable man.

Take it from me: These guys don’t know anything about family values. Family values means protecting IVF, feeding children, and expanding the Child Tax Credit to give families a fair shot. It means helping your neighbors and investing in kids.

Unmentioned in the NYT piece: Biden just signed a major Parkinson’s bill into law a week ago. Obscured by the copy: At the very end of the 8mo period (Feb 2024), Biden’s physicians publicly reported no findings consistent with Parkinson’s. whitehouse.gov/wp-content/up…
An expert on Parkinson’s disease from Walter Reed visited the White House eight times in eight months from last summer through this spring, including at least once for a meeting with Biden’s physician, according to official visitor logs. @Emily_Baum nytimes.com/2024/07/08/us/po…
