COMMENTS:
I really needed this one today.
A president throws himself a $60 million birthday spectacle and only 16% of Americans think it’s okay. His fancy gold phone is fake. And in Georgia and Wisconsin, people are actually pushing back and winning.
It’s not everything, but it’s something real. Grateful for reporting that reminds me we’re not powerless.
Some days you just need a reminder that good things are still happening.
A judge held far-right lawyers accountable for lying in court. Georgia voters showed up in big numbers. And Trump’s fancy gold phone got exposed as a cheap fake.
It’s not perfect out there, but there are still wins worth celebrating.
It is true. Thanks for the reminders that good things are happening.
I'm loving Obama's remarks for opening his center.
I'm Looking forward to the opening show tomorrow.
I love Jon Ossoff. Wish I could vote for him.
But you can donate to his campaign as I do from California.
You folks have had an amazing impact! MAGA GOP fears YOU and they HIDE!
GEORGIA has a long, contentious history of voter purges, disenfranchisement, long lines at polling places where BLACK VOTERS vote - remember GEORGIA outlawed providing food or water to those standing in long lies, lack of parking, changing polling locations without public notice.....lots of lawsuits!
Maybe you can't vote in GEORGIA, but you can SPEAK OUT ABOUT MAGA MAGGOTS! It's time to write the EULOGY to HATE, DIVISIVENESS and work for
MEDICARE FOR ALL as a beginning!
SLASH the obscene PENTAGON BUDGET and support Americans!
FEED ALL AMERICANS & FUND FOOD!
We contributed to Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock when they first ran - GEORGIA deserves the best! The nation deserves the BEST!
In Senate Race, Michigan’s El-Sayed Hammers Message on Medicare for All
The former public health official has centered the government-run healthcare proposal in his campaign.
excerpt:
In his first TV ad of the US Senate primary race in Michigan on Tuesday, former Detroit health official Abdul El-Sayed emphasized his top three priorities as he vies to represent working people across the state.
“This campaign will take on the powerful with three simple ideas,” he said in the ad. “Money out of politics, money in your pocket, and Medicare for All.”

I need to start paying more attention to him. I live in Georgia so he's an automatic "yes," but it's a blind yes, mostly. I've been reading that he's getting attention as a possible Dem front runner, which I'd feel more comfortable about if Dems can finally take the governor's office away from Republicans, too.
Everything Trump does is unconstitutional and gaudy and wrong! He is the worst President in the history of the USA.
Every thing he touches dies.
The Georgia Republicans gave Jon Ossoff a gift when they nominated Mike Collins to run against him for the GA senate seat. Collins is the politician everyone hates!
I believe this country is more democratic than Republican, and true conservative Republicans cannot stand what the administration is doing. I’m praying that the democratic turn out continues to dwarf the republican.
I think the American people should not have to pay one cent for that horrible display of violence on the front lawn of our home. It’s not his. He needs to pay for his own freaking birthday party.
There are many Republicans that are sickened by this president and his administration. Democrats need to remember they also want their votes. Many of us are moderates and hate the grifter in office. We want him gone!
Having a cage fight on the WHITE HOUSE LAWN was a terrible happening and not an accurate or respectful representation of the American people. Sure, cage fights exist and there are fans, but our beautiful country is not represented in a spectacle like that.
Put Jim Jordache in the cage with others to cut cost, and let them
play Gladiator Roulette.
Trump’s birthday event was a shame, a shame and an embarrassment. Our nation has been repeatedly degraded by this delusional, idiotic criminal.
Agree. Trump couldn't find class with a flashlight and a compass. Just trash.
Birthday bash? Trash on the White House lawn to entertain trash.
There could be several reasons for the turnout in Georgia. The seizing of the 2020 ballots, MTG coming out against Trump and his cult, not to mention the damage that has been done at warp speed by this regime to our country.
The birthday bash was obscene. Clips I have seen show a trashy misuse of the WH grounds, all to appeal to the vanity of the Toddler-in-Chief. Like everything he touches, it was a heaping pile of you-know-what.
Q1: Democrats know what's at stake: stopping he destruction of our democracy. They know a win in November is critical and will turn out and vote to ensure it.
Q2: Another humiliating embarrassment. The world laughs at us again.
Fake Chinese phone???? Yeah and just spray paint it gold! Donald dick's MO - just spray paint it gold!
Anyone doing business with the Trump family gets what they deserve.
I think that people are fed up with the sycophantic rethuglican party. I believe that they may have finally come around to the idea that truth and fairness matters not just in daily life but is an absolute requirement for every branch of the government. I look forward to a full democratic trifecta. I want corrupt judges de-benched, especially certain SCOTUS judges. I want every executive order Frumpy ever signed to be rescinded and sent thru a shredder. I want to see that USAID is restored, SNAP becomes fully funded, Medicaid, Medicare fully restored, and insurance companies brought to heel. My instinct is that if they charge exorbitant premiums and refuse coverage, that company and especially the overpaid CEO faces a massive class action lawsuit.
The billionaires and a particular trillionaire and all big corporations must pay their fair share in taxes. Refusal to do so will result in jail or exile outside the USA. Yes, I am draconian in my thinking as regards those self indulgent, power hungry, “give me more” entrepreneurs, CEOs, politicians, lawyers, etc.
I have a massive want list. I want data centers and detention centers outlawed.
Not just closed down. The detainees released with the executive turkey’s assets seized to pay their legal representation and “ start over “ money to restore what they have lost. The government is to work for and not against the people. If the people elect a rep or a senator, that person must do the will of the people. Failure or refusal to act on the people’s behalf will result in immediate recall. I am merely one person expressing an opinion. I do not believe I am the only one.
You aren't. I like all your statements, wants and ideas. I, like you, hope the cowardly, corrupt Republicans have "cooked their own goose"; have finally gone too far, taken too much, proven their greed and alliance to a failure. Some old guard Dems are included in the criticism. We need new, committed, progressive, brave, caring people in government. We need to reverse Trump's destruction.
