Perennial dunce MTG exclaims Fani Willis should leave Trump alone.

Instead she should be “going after rapists”

Agreed. BTW: “Judge clarifies: Yes, Trump was found to have raped E. Jean Carroll”

Gotta love those #Bidenomics. More people have jobs, but more people with jobs are homeless because the whores in Washington don't want to do anything about the housing crisis.

By prioritizing donors over voters, Washington politicians are convincing everyone that capitalism cannot work, and I'm not sure we should stop them from destroying capitalism on behalf of their wealthy donors.

The road to success for Black female lawyers has not been easy, especially as prosecutors.

Of the roughly 2,400 elected prosecutors in the US in 2019, only 45 of them were Black women, less than 2%.

Since then, two Black women have won high profile posts: Fani Willis in Fulton County, Georgia and Letitia James in New York.

They've proven to be two of Donald Trump's nemeses -- and the targets of his attacks.

"This is very newsworthy for #Canadians. Mike Roman, a MAGA Republican, who currently works under former PM Stephen Harper as assistant chairman for the IDU Right-Wing organization was indicted yesterday in Georgia along with Trump and 17 others.

This man assisted #Conservative leader Andrew Scheer in his 2019 campaign."

Police fatally shoot a Denver man. He was holding a marker https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/aug/15/denver-police-shoot-unarmed-man-marker-knife?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon

Did some digging on the pastor indicted alongside Trump (and 17 others) in Georgia:

He's a former police chaplain and (retired) pastor in the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod denomination, who served as an interim pastor in Illinois until this past weekend. https://religionnews.com/2023/08/15/pastor-indicted-alongside-trump-in-georgia-election-meddling-case/

Georgia and Michigan have now started prosecuting the Trump conspirators.

Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin need to follow suit.

They lied that Trump won when he lost.

They kept lying even when it was confirmed that there was no fraud.

They breached voting systems so they could try to change the results.

They pressured officials to change the election results so Trump could be declared the winner.

Jfc 😑 putin has his hooks so deep in our infrastructure it’s ridiculous. That pos is America’s number one enemy.

All I'm saying is a lot of Christians in this country should be a lot more careful.

Because if there really is a Judgment Day, they're gonna have to spend all 24 hours explaining how crappily they treated everyone.

This TOTALLY makes me want to move to New York City!! You've just gotta take a moment to browse these radical flower arrangements...

@hannu_ikonen A now-former friend, out of the blue, said this shit to me:

"Yes, the Holocaust was horrible and tragic, but consider how well the survivors did for themselves by starting independent businesses."

"Jews are hated everywhere, but consider how well they've done for themselves by starting independent businesses."

And…

"The 'Good Germans' were good."

This person knows I'm Jewish.

The audacity!

It was the last time we ever spoke.
