The Politics of Fear As a Presidential candidate, Donald Trump made his world view plain: there was β€œus” and there was β€œthem.” Once he was in the White House, the fear factor would prevail.

Donald Trump was, from his formative years, a spoiled bully. Since returning to the White House, he has made his world view clear: there is β€œus” and there is β€œthem.” David Remnick writes about the President’s politics of fear.

I have a ton of photos and videos I am going through from today's No Kings protest in St. Joseph, but I wanted to share this one first: a 102-year-old WW2 veteran who has never stopped fighting for freedom and democracy.

It was an honor to meet her and thank her for her service.

WHOA! 102 Year Old has BRUTAL Message for Trump
WHOA! 102 Year Old has BRUTAL Message for Trump YouTube video by MeidasTouch

Incredible interview with 102-year-old Diane Volz, who lives in Mike Lawler's district and lambasts Republicans for attempting to gut Medicaid and abandon FDR's principles. Great job by @meidastouch on this. What a lady! youtu.be/94EhE2qjmjU?...

Mike Lawler refuses to condemn the Trump officials who put our national security at risk by using an unsecured channel. This is reckless and most likely illegal.

Demand that Rep. Lawler call for those involved to resign and that Congress hold emergency hearings into this matter.

Great conversation this evening with hundreds of @indivisible.org leaders and members from across New York.

This is exactly the kind of grassroots energy and engagement we need to put accountability back into our politics.

Show up at the Dramatic Hall for the #FightLawler Town Hall and not at all surprised to see that #MikeLawler was a no-show after his fake Tele-Town Hall on Wednesday

Also not surprised how many CD17 constituents showed up. Standing room only inside, and impromptu rally across the street
