Just tell old, decrepit Trump that you're taking ACETAMINOPHEN instead of Tylenol. [You'll get that if you watch the entire Kimmel clip.] Trump won't understand you when you say that, and not just because his dementia is increasing daily.

Is this the America that we want. I’ve got news for you, we are headed in that direction. I’m not for that either. Let’s all make our voices be heard. We want real freedom not Trump freedom or republican freedom or Christian nationalism freedom. Let your voice be heard before it is too late. TY

Voters in southwest Arizona are highly likely to elect a new Democratic House member in a special election today. That would-be lawmaker plans to become the 218th and clinching supporter of a bipartisan effort to force public disclosure of federal investigative files related to Jeffrey Epstein.

Don't try to tell me that this is not how fascist police behave. What Trump's masked thugs are doing is precisely what fascist bullies have done before.

Here's another view of state-sponsored violence. THIS IS HOW FASCISTS OPERATE. Until they are stopped. The nation stops them by refusing to cooperate. JUST SAY NO. No to every Republican officeholder, because none of them are doing anything to stop the violence, or the terrible corruption.

Stop the Presses www.stopthepresses.news?r=7p362&utm_...

A president who is crashing the economy, destroying public health and terrorizing immigrants keeps slipping in the polls. He could: A) stop his bad behavior to stem the slide or B) try to crush free speech to cover up his failures. Right now, he’s choosing B.

The Chinese understand that Psychopath Trump is "the mother of all paper tigers". Like the leaders of other major nations, they have psychological profiles of Trump and his top aides. In addition, Trump has a long, sorry history of acting from ignorance--he knew nothing about soybeans.
