State-level efforts to beat back #WomensReproductiveRights restrictions continue: #Missouri is the latest state where organizers have announced a drive to put the matter directly to voters.
If successful, the ballot measure could undo the state's near-total #abortion ban.
@Thebratdragon Never got to watch that. I imagine he was believable. @GayDeceiver
#NathanWade purchased tickets for himself & #FaniWillis on 2 occasions… — a trip to Miami in Oct 2022 on American Airlines, & a 2nd trip in April 2023 to San Francisco on Delta.
Fmr #Trump campaign aide Mike Roman, who is charged alongside Trump in the #Georgia case, has argued that Willis improperly benefited from hiring Wade as a special prosecutor by receiving free travel from him. Wade, who is an atty in private practice, has earned >$650k from Willis’s office for his work.

Many Americans are in disbelief at the probability of a Biden-Trump rematch?
Not this American.
I'm in disbelief that a man who led an insurrection is permitted to run for the presidency.
I'm in disbelief that a man eminently unqualified for office has the solid backing of almost his entire party.
I'm in disbelief that so many Americans are right on board with this.
As always, your both-sidesism is spectacularly missing the point, New York Times.

@KatM @Green_Footballs good point.
If he takes the witness stand, which I am certain he wants to do, and he now finally has an attorney who does what he tells her to do, then E Jean Carroll's attorney should ask on cross, "what is the point, what are you trying to accomplish with this series of posts?"
He won't say that he wants her dead, but he probably will visibly lie, and it puts the question into the minds of the jurors. And points out that he didn't even stop during the trial itself.
Biden’s strengths are mostly hidden. He does not have a cult of personality and does not dominate the media. His party is not afraid of him. He has a long list of gains that are broadly popular. Elect #Biden and he will continue to work with GOP to pass laws that create jobs, invest in infrastructure, reform the least-popular parts of gun laws, etc.
Otoh #tfg has no actual policy rationale beyond personal retribution, “stopping” immigration, and oil drilling.

I have heard it said
(we have all heard it said)
that adversity builds character
but here in the fifth year
of this ongoing pandemic
I truly believe
that I have built enough character.

Speaking of terrorism, what about these state legislators?
"In addition to “a member of a criminal street gang” and someone who “has been convicted of a gang-related offense”, the bill defines a terrorist as “any person who is of Hispanic descent living within the state of Oklahoma”.

@EugeneMcParland Unfortunately, Trump’s solution would work. He would just have Ukraine surrender immediately.
See???
Rampant election fraud as Trump tried to steal the 2020 election!
