When I cast my vote for President Biden, I wasn't expecting much. I just wanted trump out of office.

I knew he was old.
I knew he had a stutter.
I knew he had a rep for "gaffes."
I didn't care. Just wanted trump gone.

Four years later, things are different.
I wasn't expecting that President Biden would be the most legislatively successful President in my lifetime.

1/4

Today, President Biden announced a new security assistance package for Ukraine. The United States will continue to be with Ukraine every step of the way as Ukraine defends itself against Russia.

"The Republican Party is on the verge of an election win that could allow them to enact complete and total Christian Nationalism in the United States of America. This is true even though the far right’s signature policy, mercilessly banning abortion, is more reviled than ever. Rather than backing down, evangelicals have declared war on the separation of church and state and, thus, democracy itself."

@palin That rumor is a complete lie. ONE donor luncheon at the convention was cancelled. Biden campaign has cash on hand- google it yourself. Trump's using campaign $ to float his business- google it.
This is total BS that is aimed to demoralize Biden voters. I'm far from wealthy, and will continue to donate when I am able. I urge voters to give what they can afford.
Look to a future when we will overturn Citizens United. Dark money has no place in US politics.

NEW: Challengers to Florida's anti-trans ban on proper pronouns being used in classrooms got a boost from a federal judge Wednesday when he rejected the state's request to throw out sex discrimination claims brought by the teachers who are suing. https://www.lawdork.com/p/florida-trans-pronouns-ban-sex-discrimination

With its 2024 platform, the GOP isn’t even pretending to have principles. The GOP stands for whatever Trump says it does that day. The GOP is NOT a political party, it's a FASCIST movement.

@AlliFlowers I just took a walk from my air conditioned office to a Publix about a mile away - by the time I got back I was overheated.

I have no idea how the outside workers do it, and have immense respect for their plight.

F#ck any politician that doesn't support even minimal protection for these workers - and honestly I don't care if they go on strike and our grass doesn't get cut.

This is like the Epstein files....

Do you want voters to choose our next POTUS or for this SCOTUS to do it because if we were to try to replace Joe Biden on the ballots this late in the game than most likely it will be up to SCOTUS who the next POTUS will be.

The IDF has found another Hamas command and control room in a school and health clinic.

Why is this important?

It's important because there are people saying that the Israeli army is committing war crimes by attacking schools, but Hamas is committing war crimes by using a school and health clinic as a military center, thereby forcing Israel's hand in attacking schools and hospitals.

This is not the first, second, or third time either.

Fuck Hamas so hard for this.

It is truly disturbing to see middle students engage in organized harassment of teachers. It’s behavior like this that gives ammo to the moral panics leading to age limit laws for social media and TikTok bans.

Being a teacher is already tough enough without getting doxxed by kids.

Trump’s Wildly Unhinged Attack on NYT Should Wake Up Media: He’s Unfit

Quick thread on Biden's call-in this morning with Morning Joe, which began with him saying, "I'm more than presumptive. I'm gonna be the Democratic nominee." (1/6)

Columbia University removed three administrators for sending text messages that officials said included antisemitic tropes -NYT

Biden: And again, I'm here for two reasons pal. One, to rebuild the economy for hard working middle class people. Give everybody a shot. Just a straight shot. Everybody gets a fair chance. Number one. Number two, remember all this talk about how I don't have the Black support? Come on, give me a break. Come with me. Watch. Watch. I'm getting so frustrated but the elites in the party who say they know so much more.

Boeing has agreed to plead guilty to criminal conspiracy to commit fraud.

Boeing’s descent reveals everything wrong with American capitalism today.

Raw Story:
'Why are they hiding him?': Morning Joe points to bad news for Trump

After sharing clips of an invigorated President Joe Biden hitting the campaign trail over the weekend... Trump has been nowhere to be seen.

Sitting next to co-host Mika Brzezinski, Scarborough began, "Where is he? Why are they hiding him? Are they afraid that he may go out and talk about World War II coming or Barack Obama being president...
