Impeached Texas AG Ken Paxton is saying he stopped 2.5 million mail-in ballots, which flipped Texas from Biden to Trump.

This is not the own he thinks it is.

Smells more like a pile of felonies.

On this day in 1937, Chicago police attacked a Memorial Day gathering of unarmed, striking steelworkers and their families, killing ten in the "Memorial Day Massacre". Chicago PD banned local screening of film footage of the massacre.

Happy #MemorialDay everyone today we honor those who lost their lives fighting for our country and kept our freedoms our rights our democracy in tact. The fight is far from over today we have a new foe to fight and that is fascism from within and we have to do everything we can to make sure fascism never comes into power

This did me in. I walked all around it, taking in the details, and stood under it, absorbing the punch of the limp body draped over the imperial horse. Seeing the representation of Black life extinguished at such scale catalyzed a wave of grief and loss. I don't know if others experienced it the way I did.

Well y'all, back inside from a morning of brush cuttin n hedge clearing. And now I'm pretty much exhausted myself for #today.

Loads done too. Another day like #today n I'll be caught up to where I was last year n ready to move onward.😊

The nephews are out of school so they came over to #joinin. They are young yet, 8 n 10 years old, so they still find such things fun and thought the electric weed trimmer was just the coolest thing. Took turns trimming everything that the thing could handle, with me following behind to tackle the bigger stuff.😁

But it's noon n getting hot in the sun and I've pretty much run out of energy for #myday. I have the habit of pushing myself a little bit harder than I should. Keep standing there saying "just this bit more" then do it again and again until, well.. I'm about to fall over if I don't stop.🥴

Well, have reached that point. Time for a nice long rest, a cool drink or two and lunch. Hope y'all are enjoying a wonderful n satisfying day too.👍😁🖖

The permanent end of the needless obscenity that is war is the only thanks for my service I want.

There really is more than enough to go around for everyone, now and far into our future, if we want such an existence for humanity.

Biden deserves and won't get credit for negotiating with the worst-faith Republicans every to “run” government. I hate the fact that he had to agree to cuts; I love that we’re (likely) not driving off the cliff, which Republicans were apparently absolutely prepared to this time around. Businesses and major donors failed to raise the hue and cry at the GOP about default—they’ve gotten too used to brinkspersonship.

President Biden showing his empathy and humanity in contrast to Trump who shows his criminality and infamy.

@AlliFlowers The new low, just how low can the GOP go? As low as they need to…🤬

Older man comes unglued making demands unreasonable for a civilian.

Even TFG’s lawyers are so stupid they don’t realize only the sitting president has pardon power.

“… goes down in flames…”

“A closely-watched and controversial piece of legislation in #Texas that would have required public schools to post the Ten Commandments in every classroom failed to pass on Tuesday night…

The bill could theoretically be reintroduced, but there is very little time left in in legislative session to do so.“ #religion #SeparationOfChurchAndState https://www.rawstory.com/texas-ten-commandments-bill/
