#fyp #fypγ‚· #movies #tiktok #foryou TikTok video by Donna

Remember the movie, "The Newsroom" with Jeff Daniels? Came out in 2012.
Here's Jeff, as the news anchor, using real clips of politicians, talking about voter suppression:

Barack and Michelle Obama announce joint career move as Broadway producers Don Cheadle and Ayo Edebiri will star as father and daughter in the Broadway revival of β€˜Proof’

EGOT Watch!

Barack Obama already has three Emmys (Outstanding Narrator), and he + Michelle each have two Grammys (Best Spoken Word/Audio Book), though they were *not* individual Oscar recipients when AMERICAN FACTORY (which their production company acquired) won Best Documentary Feature Film.

πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦ ONE AGAINST TWO

Infantry and drones of the 155th Motorized Rifle Brigade and the 425th Motorized Rifle Brigade "Skelya" β€” defending Hryshyne, north of Pokrovsk.

Unequal battle: enemy assault group (PKM machine gunner and cover rifleman) against our infantryman.

Dozens of U.S. service members in Kuwait suffered serious injuries, including burns, brain trauma and shrapnel wounds, sources say About 30 U.S. service members remained hospitalized Tuesday after an Iranian drone strike in Kuwait.

Just like 2020 when Trump downplayed over 100 service members with traumatic brain injuries as β€œheadaches”, and downplaying covid deaths, Trump is never honest with the American people about this if he thinks it makes him look bad. Because Trump is all about Trump. www.cbsnews.com/news/strike-...

Trump DOJ’s voter rolls grab has unearthed a tiny number of illegitimate votes Dozens of illegitimate votes may seem significant. But 50 illegitimate votes would amount to just 0.000007 percent of the roughly 680 million votes cast in the last five national elections.

NEW: After accessing nearly half of the states’ full voter rolls, the DOJ's Harmeet Dhillon said it's only found β€œdozens” of instances of noncitizen voting.

Though seemingly significant, 50 illegitimate votes would amount to ~0.000007% of roughly 680 million votes cast in the last five elections.

Sen. Rick Scott in 2022: β€œThe buck stops with one person. Joe Biden made your gas prices go up. He did it. He actually did it.”

Brutal Reality of Pentagon Pete’s Massive Cuts Is Exposed Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth’s brutal staff cuts at the Pentagon have impacted the departments that would have investigated the fatal strike on a girls’ school in Iran. President Donald Trump, wh...

Pete Hegseth gutted Pentagon oversight, calling the rules of war "stupid." He slashed the Middle East casualty team from 10 experts to one.

Then came the Minab strike: 170 girls and 14 teachers dead.

The Pentagon’s "inability to confirm" its role is the outcome Hegseth engineered.

MAGA's rhetoric of western civilizational emergency is so weird. They look at ICE arresting grandmothers and they see the ancient Greeks defeating the Persians or the Franks stopping the Islamic invaders in 732.

Everyone else sees ICE arresting grandmothers.

Hegseth rejects the idea that the war in Iran is β€œspreading,” despite reality The defense secretary insisted that the ongoing conflict β€œis actually quite contained.” Perhaps he was referring to some other war?

Pete Hegseth keeps insisting that the war isn’t β€œspreading” to other countries and is β€œactually quite contained.”

Perhaps he’s confused about what β€œspreading” and β€œcontained” mean.

Lindsey is going to make an incredible council member- she’s smart, tenacious, knows how to communicate, SHOWS UP, and really gets the kind of coalition politics we need to get things done in the city. We need more electeds like her at all levels of government.

Before holding office: Lindsey made defeating Cuomo possible and helped construct majorities for multiple causes of NYC's marginalized.

Once in office: Lindsey will help us Trump-proof NYC, reclaim its public spaces for the many, fight real-estate investors for affordability, and invest in care.
