Republicans plan marathon debate for SAVE America Act But don’t call it a “talking filibuster.”

A talking filibuster is when you make the OTHER PARTY talk and talk. Republicans are so dumb, they are now planning a filibuster of their own bill! www.politico.com/live-updates...

Another word you might use for it is "looting".

"This appears to be the first administration to take such widespread advantage of taxpayer-funded military housing to accommodate political appointees who do not have a direct connection to the military..."

The Desire for Terror And the defense of democracy

A purpose of the war on Iran might well be to provoke a terrorist attack inside the United States, thereby justifying the need to “federalize” elections. We must anticipate it, with sadness and resolution, and not be surprised, if it happens.

Khanna: "Trump said the Iraq War was a disaster. He said Libya was a disaster. He ran bc a big part of the MAGA base did not want another war in the Middle East. They rejected Lindsey Graham, & yet here we have Lindsey Graham being the face of Republican foreign policy. I believe this is a betrayal"

Pres Trump told me tonight the US had identified possible candidates to take over Iran, but they were killed in the initial attack.

"The attack was so successful it knocked out most of the candidates," Trump told me. "It's not going to be anybody that we were thinking of because they are all dead. Second or third place is dead."

Trump's mass deportations are his Forever War:

*restive populations bravely resisting extended military occupations
*public-private war bureaucracy
*huge arms buildup
*war profiteers winning lucrative weapons contracts
*costly (MAGA) elite-engineered quagmire opposed by the American people

Just saying, but when people are trying to do everything they can to prevent you from voting, that’s when you absolutely need to vote.

Ready to make this the biggest midterm turnout in history?

Mayes: We’re talking about having to physically protect the machinery of democracy. And to me, it is surreal that we are at that place.

But what I want Americans to know is that you have a team of AGs that has been working together for more than a year now to protect democracy.

Our federal government killed a disabled genocide survivor and is covering up for a child rapist. And that is just today’s news. It is just unconscionable to be treating this as normal or acceptable in any way.

My team and I have been anticipating this for months. It is unconstitutional and illegal.

The media should note: Last time he issued an EO about voting, we sued and won. If Trump issues such an order we will sue again and we will win again.

Missouri volunteers say they were harassed by paid GOP canvassers. It’s likely the same group accused of forging signatures in Utah “They were like, ‘Actually, no. We’re here to stop you from getting signatures.’”

New reporting by Democracy Docket suggests that Patriot Grassroots’ canvassers also crossed a line in Missouri, where volunteers gathering signatures to put a GOP-backed gerrymander to a statewide vote said they were harassed by out-of-state paid agitators.
