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


Fed's preferred inflation gauge shows price pressures stayed elevated last month

#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?

This is terrifying. These “Constitutional sheriffs” are fascistic petty tyrants who believe they’re accountable to nobody. And their wingnut “posses,” hopped up on conspiracy theories, are gonna harass and intimidate voters. Or worse.

There’s no reason in the world to believe #Trump raised $50 million at that fundraiser but the quarter just started and the claim will be forgotten by the time they have to file FEC reports so, thanks to a credulous press, mission accomplished. #media #Election2024


It’s unlikely that Trump will wind up in an orange jumpsuit, and most likely not before election day, in any case.

But if he does, he would not be the first candidate to run for the White House from the Big House.

Here’s the story of Eugene V. Debs, a Socialist Party presidential candidate in 1920, who polled nearly a million votes without ever hitting the campaign trail:
