Ossoff: "This is a seismic event. This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal. This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County Elections office ... This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020."
Just wanted to flash back to the best President in my lifetime. He was for All Americans regardless of what they thought of him. I miss the safety I felt with President Obama at the helm. Integrity, intelligence , class and honor. Good days ….

We're in a time in American history where the president of the United States is sending FBI agents out to help rig the midterms. This is not an administration, it's a mafia doing their dirty work for all to see & I am FURIOUS at everyone who helped normalize this level of crime in our government.
I hope Georgia sues to get their ballots back like trump sued to get his classified documents back. But I think Georgia would win.

Trump will attempt to corrupt the midterm elections anyway possible, to avoid the inevitable articles of impeachment waiting for him, should the GOP lose. Which they would in a free and fair election.

Amazon just announced another round of 16,000 layoffs, months after it laid off 14,000 workers.
Reminder that Amazon CEO Andy Jassy raked in over $40M in 2024.
And Amazon is spending at least $75 million producing and promoting the Melania documentary.
The system is rigged.
Yesssss. Separate out DHS and shut it down.
Frey: "In Mpls, we heard them say they'll end this siege when we hand over voter rolls. The DOJ is being used as a weapon. They're investigating me and several other local elected officials not because we've done something wrong because we speak on behalf of our constituents.
We did not properly punish the confederates. We did not properly punish the insurrectionists on January 6th. We have to punish ICE.
They can’t be allowed to slink back into their communities quietly. Expose them. Arrest them. Convict them. Imprison them.
That would make all of this so much worse.
The coolest Congresswoman there’s ever been.
