It is up to us as voters in the United States to vote in people who will strengthen institutions not weaken or pollute them. This is imperative not only on the federal level but even more so on the state and local level. #vote#registertovotehttps://vote.org
The corporate wing of the Democrats has objectively terrible political instincts, because the corporate wing of the Dems wants things that are very unpopular with the electorate (this is a trait they share with the Republican establishment).

Dear UK #Students, get yourselves on the #ElectoralRoll right now as you will be at home in July. Tell you families, tell your neighbours, tell your friends.
If you're not registered to vote in the UK, you have until 16th April to do so in order to vote in the May local elections. You can register online. You have until 17th April to apply for a postal vote. You can do the applications online. All you need is your National Insurance number. However, there will be some manual forms to fill in and submit after your initial application.
Today is a great day to verify that you're still registered to #VOTE!
With voter rolls being purged (especially in red states, but also by Republicans filing lawsuits in blue states), you might want to check periodically between now and November!
@TonyStark Not only did President Joe Biden create more American jobs than most other presidents so far, including especially jobs-flop Mr Trump, Joe Biden's also been serious about serving the American people right from the start, other than Trump, who egoistically & falsely believes, that presidential office obliges the people to serve the president's whims & hopes to escape the laws.

After having pleaded guilty to assaulting, resisting or impeding certain officers with a dangerous weapon, he was sentenced to 2½ years, or 30 months, in prison.
The 7th named storm of the season has hit the UK, the 5th to hit the place I live. In the nearby town of Cupar, they have been waist-deep in floodwater today. This is #ClimateChange in action. We must act now to stop unimaginable much more serious effects.
Hold our politicians to account. If you are a young person who hasn't ever voted, #RegisterToVote, there's an election coming. If you are not a young person, please pass this hint to someone who is.
The only way to get where ALL OF US want to go, is through using JOE BIDEN to get to the NEXT STEP. There is NO OTHER WAY. The only other candidate who can win, will make everything you want to see happen merely ACADEMIC. You'll NEVER be able to fight for whatever it is, EVER AGAIN. You won't be able to BE IT, DO IT, TALK ABOUT IT without serious problems. There's NOTHING TO THINK ABOUT.
This CHANGES to main topic of what the Nov 2024 election is about. It's not about helping Ukraine, building unity with South Korea and Japan and the Philippines, not about taxes being increased to the super rich. It's about keeping a corrupt guy out of office, to keep the Democratic Republic from becoming a government of a few White House appointed officials
Sickeningly, everything the right and its dis/misinformation machine did for decades to destabilize #US#education#media#judiciary#elections#politics (too long unchallenged as the threat seemed so unbelievably stupid), has worked—as evidenced by our now fatally anemic #voterturnout.
A minority of voters (especially if splintered by #thirdparty options) simply CANNOT save this #democracy.
In 2017, Donald Trump divulged classified intelligence including intel on Israel to Sergei Lavrov and Sergey Kislyak during a meeting at The White House
Also see this about a similar ⭕leak in 1943 #ww2 by a guy similar to Trump (US House Rep)
The US #navy subs could dive to 100 FEET (not the video in post), says 100m, THAT IS NOT CORRECT)

I'd like to hear every Dem in the House say that they don't need to defend President Biden from this bullshit circus meant to distract from the ONLY real criminal, Donald Trump. Then, list crimes.
Because IF the newsmedia gets the message out and IF many voters hear/understand (the clown show) there is the need to multiply the message to friends, neighbors, young new voters, etc.
