In the past 3 weeks, the #Biden admin has extended overtime pay for 4 mil workers, moved to cancel student debt for 25 mil borrowers, banned non-competes, banned drilling on 13 mil acres of AK wilderness, forced airlines to give refunds for delayed/ canceled flights and restored net neutrality.
Doesn't matter given that nobody knows this, popularism is BS, there's no liberal equivalent of Fox, the legacy media is relentlessly hostile and Biden's the elderly PM of Israel. #Election2024

Veteran Democratic strategist Joe Trippi warns us to be skeptical of claims now being pushed by Republicans that RFKJr's candidacy may hurt Trump. Trippi thinks that RFK's threat is primarily to Biden, and Republicans are trying to run a bait-and-switch with the claim that RFK may hurt Trump

#BernieSanders' approach to providing funding for low- and middle-income #US families to install #SolorPanels at their homes is the right way.

#Trump losing 17% of the vote in a closed swing-state primary to a candidate who dropped out months ago should lead to a lotta commentary about his weakness. It won’t, because the press is obsessed with Trumpers sticking with Trump regardless, but it should.
Imagine how they’d cover Dean Phillips pulling those numbers against #Biden.

Der eine verbrennt sich während des Trump-Verfahrens vor dem New York State Court aus Angst vor der totalen faschistischen Weltverschwörung. Die andere ruft zur Bewaffnung im Namen Gottes auf. Wer ständig wie #Trump in den Wald seine narzisstischen Verschwörungstheorien hineinruft, erntet genau diese Saat: Lügen, Hass, Zwietracht und völligen Irrsinn.
Wes Geistes Kinder sind das eigentlich?
