Trump raised a record-breaking $34.8 million the day after being convicted of election interference. That's nearly double their previous largest single-day online donation amount.

29.7% were new donors.

This is not a drill. He will get reelected unless people on the left step up to oppose him. And makes it clear how much worse things can get, both domestically and abroad.

May 31, 2016 – Donald Trump attacked Gonzalo Curiel, the federal judge who presided over the Trump University fraud case, saying that Curiel’s assignment to the case represented "an absolute conflict because the judge was “of Mexican heritage.” “I’m building a wall,” said Trump, “It’s an inherent conflict of interest.”

outside the Manhattan courthouse aren't taking the 34 verdicts well. One was just screaming "FUCK YOU!", while his buddy told everyone that their children were all dead, and some woman screamed, "1776!!!" over and over again. I really hope has these people on some list.

May 30, 2020 – Trump condemned people across the country who protested the killing of George Floyd, threatening them with “vicious dogs” and “ominous weapons.” In a tweet he wrote, “Tonight, I understand, is MAGA NIGHT AT THE WHITE HOUSE???” He later suggested he didn’t mean to incite any violence. “I was just asking,” he said. “By the way, they love African-American people. They love black people.”

What the #OhioRepublicans are demanding isn’t “compromise,” but #extortion. Again, there is a clean bill ready to go in the state house, allowing #Biden’s name to be added to the #ballot. It’s a very simple matter to pass that bill, without any additional provisions. #Republicans are simply taking advantage of the situation in order to advance their own interests to the detriment of Ohio #voters.

Political webcomic I quickly drew on my phone right below I step into the shower. Wild how self-deluded the "Biden and Trump are eQuAlLy BaD" self-centered privileged children are. It's easy to pretend like it doesn't matter who you (don't) vote for if you're not part of a marginalized demographic who will suffer far, far, far more at the hands of Trump (or are already suffering and somehow don't think it'll get even worse). The time to vote against Biden was in the primaries--in the general election, a third party or non-vote IS A VOTE FOR TRUMP, and no amount of smarmy foot-stomping is going to change this.

I know it's so much harder than not bothering to vote, but the way you stop the US from funding genocide is ORGANIZING, is physically showing up to protests, is continued calls and letters to your elected officials, is working AHEAD of voting day to for your chosen progressive candidate. If not voting or wasting your vote is what will cause the "revolution" you dream of, then we would have revolted a long time ago.

It's , so the Trumps are seizing the opportunity to tell the world how much they've sacrificed for America. No, seriously, that's what (the dumbest ) decided to proclaim on this day when we honor those who have actually served their country. Of course, Trump thinks are 'losers' for serving, but he and his family never miss an opportunity to put themselves up on an unearned pedestal. This family is scum.

On Memorial Day, we remember those who lost their lives protecting their nation. They didn't agree with every policy or decision in Washington, yet they served and sacrificed.

This November, you also have an opportunity to protect the nation, even though you may disagree with many of its policies. You can do so simply by voting.

Read about the GOP's Project 2025. Then to protect democracy, voting rights, the environment, women, the LGBTQ community, immigrants, and all Americans.

So the U.S. “advises U.S. citizens overseas to exercise increased caution.” due to terrorist-organization inspired threats. Sec of State Blinken said in a statement, “people in the LGBTQ+ community continue to face insidious forms of stigma and discrimination."

Bitch, you gotta be kiddin’ me. There are currently 515 anti- bills in U.S. states right now. Facing insidious forms of stigma and discrimination?

Trump at Libertarian convention tonight:

"It will be my great honor to pardon the peaceful January 6 protesters, or as I often call them, the hostages. There has never been a group of people treated so harshly or unfairly in our country's history."

The right to privacy is a fundamental right in this country. The discussions a patient has with her physician were protected by Roe v Wade.

This isn’t about being pro life. The republicans have shown time and time again they wouldn’t give two squirts of piss for anyone’s life. If they did, they would quit trying to defund social programs that are proven to save and improve lives of children and adults.

No. It’s about control.

“If the voters put [Trump] back in power after the Jan. 6 insurrection, we are unlikely to keep the republic. If voters cannot be bothered to show up and choose the only candidate
who has pledged to abide by the Constitution from day one (and never to "suspend" it), then our democracy is doomed. But we can get it right this time, as we did in 2020.”
