Trump to New York Magazine in 2002:

"[Jeffrey’s] a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side."

NEW: We’re suing the Trump administration.

They have refused to respond to our FOIA requests on whether Trump plans to deploy troops to polling places and drop boxes.

Trump is trying to cheat and intimidate his way through midterms he knows the GOP will lose. We’re fighting back.

@GasBuddyGuy: The most commonly encountered price for diesel has jumped from $3.69/gal a week ago to... $4.99/gal today. Can't underscore what a massive jolt this is to the logistics, trucking, ag sectors.

Good example of how this isn’t just about the cost of filling up your car. ANYTHING that gets shipped (such as our food/produce) gets dealt a massive blow.

Stephen Miller Tweet from 11/4/24: If young men don't want to be drafted to fight in Kamala's and Cheney's 3rd World War they better get out and vote for Trump.

There’s never enough money for schools or healthcare or veterans.

But there’s always enough money to bomb people on the other side of the world.

We can support the democracy movement in Iran without bombing innocent schoolchildren and sending our American troops off to die.

I traveled to Alabama for the 61st anniversary of the crossing of the Edmund Pettus Bridge, and had the opportunity to thank the volunteers with @aldemocrats.bsky.social and hear about their vision for our party and the future.

I’m so grateful for what these volunteers are doing on the ground here.

Americans are seeing the costs of everything go up — including groceries, housing, and now gas. Trump promised to bring these costs down, but he hasn’t.

Don’t let this President lie to you. We’re in an affordability crisis.

A monochromatic image of Markwayne Mullin with the following overlaid text:

Markwayne Mullin is Unqualified

Trump's pick to lead the Department of Homeland Security is the latest addition to a wildly incompetent cabinet.

No law enforcement experience.
No national security experience.
No emergency response experience.

A DOJ source says FBI agents found the woman who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her as a child to be credible:

"They would not have interviewed her four times if they thought she was lying."

A graphic comparing two quotes.

Donald Rumsfeld on Iraq (2003): "It could last six days, six weeks. I double six months."

Donald Trump on Iran (2026): "It'll take four weeks, or less."

Other things Kristi Noem has purchased with your money:

–$172 million for private jets
–$2.4 million for gold-detailed ICE vehicles
–$700,000 for tricked-out trucks for ICE
–$120,000 for 2 Mustangs

Did Trump also authorize these?

One thing is clear: we’re about to take back Texas.

To the billionaires who have taken over our state and our country: your unchecked power is coming to an end. 

To the people of Texas: this election is our chance to take power back for ourselves and our communities.

Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy. But right now, they’re under attack.

Several Republican-controlled states have redrawn their congressional maps to give themselves an unfair advantage in the midterm elections.

Texans are ready for a governor who fights for quality health care, combats rising costs, and strengthens public education.

Statement from DNC Chair Ken Martin on U.S. Service Members Killed in Trump’s War with Iran
My heart is with the loved ones and fellow soldiers of Capt. Cody A. Khork, Sgt. 1st Class Noah L. Tietjens, Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, and Sgt. Declan J. Coady.

I pray for the service members who were killed as a result of Donald Trump’s war with Iran, for their families, and for all who are serving our country.

The decision to put our men and women in uniform in harm's way should be made with the utmost care and serious deliberation, but Trump has only exercised gross incompetence as U.S. troops are killed and American citizens are stranded in the crosshairs of a war that he started.

Donald Trump’s reckless war in Iran has already shattered too many lives.
