Moskowitz: I want to end on a happy note. I got you a new Coast Guard blankie, the one you lost.

The assignment is to destroy the United States.

The State of Illinois has eliminated over $1.1 billion in medical debt for our people as of this month.

Combined with our partners in Cook County, we’ve delivered nearly $2 billion in relief to over a million Illinoisans in all 102 counties – with an average of $1,200 per patient.

There is remarkably little appreciation of this inside he Washington Beltway.

Great Democratic commercial

Thank you Denmark 🇩🇰

Turns Out There Was Voter Fraud in Georgia—by Elon Musk The state board of elections found Musk’s PAC sent prefilled ballot applications.

The story that Elon Musk committed voter fraud has gotten next to no coverage -- one of those things you can't make come up on a Google search.

But I think it's time for Dems to go on offensive abt right wing coddling of this immigrant interfering in our elections.

Sadly, ICE learned what not to do in Minnesota… they have not left… but are spreading out in disguise tricking and nabbing people before we can respond. We need a new plan….

Fox News is poison! Sorry about your father!

New York checking in - Loathe him!

Trump tries and fails to extort Canada It's Bridgegate 2.0, only much dumber.

"Trump no longer has the bandwidth to enforce his own edicts. His popularity is in free fall, Ds are over-performing in every election, and, while he can certainly punish Rs who fail to parrot his increasingly unhinged narratives, he can’t make them commit political suicide." — @lizdye.bsky.social

if you remember the FBI + ICE + local raid on a horse race track in Wilder, Idaho that detained hundreds of families (including many kids & U.S. citizens) the @acluidaho.bsky.social just announced a lawsuit.

The complaint is just as disturbing as previous reporting www.aclu.org/press-releas...

Please call the Senate they will vote very soon on whether to allow dangerous sulfide-ore copper mining on the edges of Minnesota’s Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. Tell them to vote NO on House Joint Resolution 140 (H.J. Res. 140).

Turns out firing career diplomats and replacing them with Trump loyalists who learned international relations from Truth Social has consequences. Who knew. #holdfast

Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

🚨NEW: A federal judge out of Oregon has issued a sweeping rebuke of the DOJ’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls.

The opinion released Thursday concluded that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warned that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.

Steve Bannon says the federal government is planning to send ICE officers to patrol polling stations during the midterms.

"We're going to have ICE surround the polls come November."

"We're not going to sit here and allow you to steal the country again." www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

This is voter intimidation! Illegal!
But states should pass laws barring ICE from polling stations!!!

“We’re going to have ICE surround the polls come November,” Steve Bannon.
Again I’m saying we need states to pass laws barring ICE from polling places!!!

1. This 2016 exchange between Jeffrey Epstein and Peter Thiel is so essential, really gets to the heart of Epstein's project.
Epstein: brexit, just the beginning.
Thiel: Of what?
Epstein: return to tribalism... finding things on their way to collapse , was much easier than finding the next bargain

Here’s a top CDC official claiming that the U.S. losing its measles elimination status would be “the cost of doing business.”

We are governed by the dumbest people.

States need to pass laws barring ICE from polling stations!!! #NoKings #ICEOUT
