Everything Putin says is a lie, and everything his puppet Trump says is a lie.
Why would Americans choose to live in a society built on lies?

Trump's "No Tax on Tips" idea is just another 𝐒𝐂𝐀𝐌.
When you look at the fine print of Ted Cruz's bill enacting it--it would give 𝗡𝗢 tax cut to someone making $28,000.
Trump’s Project 2025 enables lawyers to classify their fees as tips and get huge tax cuts. Meanwhile, he’s proposing to cut social security and Medicare for waitresses and restaurant workers who actually need tax breaks.
But hedge fund managers, lawyers can convert their fees into "tips" & get giant tax breaks.
Trump and his cronies of Project 2025 will destroy democracy. Here's a tip: stop voting for fascists.
Donors in Ohio who had asked him if he would condemn inflammatory remarks (lies) made by Marjorie Taylor Greene.
“And I say, ‘Why? Why do you want me to denounce this person?’” Vance said. “‘Well, she believes these crazy things.’ WHO CARES?”
He went on, “Believing crazy things is not the mark of whether somebody should be rejected ... and if they believe some crazy things on the side, that’s fine.

The Department of Homeland Security receives a bulletin from its intelligence branch warning that Russia is behind a scheme to promote Joe Biden as having cognitive decline.
“Russia Likely to Denigrate Health of US Candidates to Influence 2020 Election,”
It is an Op.
Do not be a useful idiot.
Homeland Security’s intelligence division submitted a report that Russia’s propaganda network was behind a campaign to smear President #Biden as having cognitive decline.
The intelligence report was blocked by weak Sycophant Chad Wolf.

The women of America don't have time for this.
Rapist, pedophiles and white nationalist, and Women haters must be defeated on Nov 5th.
We don't take an oath to a wannabe dictator.
As the felon tries to distance himself from his nazi Project 2025, here's a big flag:
The Heritage Foundation, the ultra-conservative group behind Project 2025, is a SPONSER of the Republican National Convention.
What's more: Heritage plans to hold a day-long 'policy fest' in Milwaukee on the opening day of the convention.
Remember the felon wanted to order our military to shoot peaceful American citizens in the legs?

So let's get this straight Clarence Thomas went to Russia, in secret, with Harlan Crow. The trip included helicopter ride to a palace in St. Petersburg. This is the first known yacht trip. Let's examine implications
First, a rich American with a #SCOTUS justice doesn't just show up unannounced, fly a helicopter into St. Petersburg. That shxt requires advanced notice and clearance AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL, so at minimum Putin and the Kremlin spy and kompromat operatives knew about this.
The Kremlin would also know that Thomas failed to disclose the trip on mandatory reports - so they knew in 2003 that Thomas could be bribed & was willing to lie to the US government. They knew in 2003 they had leverage over a SCOTUS justice.
I also find it impossible that US intelligence services did not also know about this in real time. George Bush & George waterboard Tenet CIA DIR must have known Thomas was in Russia on a bribe/junket. They kept his secret, too. Russia knew it had leverage there, too.
The international community refuses to release the #Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant from russian terrorists. The terrorists use the facility as a base to fire artillery across the Dnipro River at Nikopol’ district in free Ukraine, knowing defenders will never fire back at them.
Russia invaded and took hostage the workers at the NUCLEAR PLANT in 2022 and use it to attack Ukrainians! Putin's nuke terror.

Nothing to see here just a United States Supreme Court justice jetting setting off to Russia paid for by an American oligarch who needs decisions swayed in his favor.
As part of SenWhitehouse
and RonWyden's request that AG Merrick Garland appoint a Special Counsel to investigate Clarence Thomas, they include two lists, one of his likely undisclosed gifts from Harlan Crow.
No matter what the Supreme Court ruled, no president should be above the law.
A president should not be able to accept bribes for pardons.
A president should not be able to order the military to assassinate a rival.
We're a democracy. No one is unaccountable to the law.
Americans,
Here's the bottom line:
They don’t have the numbers.
Their plan all along was to divide those who oppose authoritarianism. Democrats, Independents and never-Trump Republicans.
They funded 3rd party candidates.
They flooded the zone with slanted polls.
They got their cohorts in the media singing their tune.
They had Elon flood this place with bots and right wing propaganda.
They still don’t have the numbers.
Not unless you give in.

Statement Rep Adam Schiff
Today’s Supreme Court decision on Donald Trump’s immunity claim is far worse than anything I imagined.
Effectively giving a president immunity for any crimes committed while in office as long as that president can plausibly claim the action was taken in some form of official capacity.
It must now be presumed that the president, as king, is immune from accountability.
The rule of law applies to everyone except the most powerful person on Earth.
It would be difficult to overstate how much this opinion shifts the balance of power away from Congress and towards the presidency, and how unshackled a corrupt president will now be. The Court gives the president absolute power, and it will corrupt him, absolutely.
As Justice Sotomayor says so powerfully, this new immunity ‘now lies about like a loaded weapon’ for any President that wishes to place his own interests, his own political survival, or his own financial gain, above the interests of the Nation.’
1/
Now the Supreme Court says he is immune from ordering his Justice Department to lie, and the evidence of his malice, his very words, may not be used as evidence against him.
Under this ruling, a president can order the assassination or jailing of their political rival, and be immune. They can take a bribe in exchange for an official act, and still be immune. They can organize a military coup to hold onto power, and still be immune. If that sounds mad, that’s because it is.
This is a day that will live in legal infamy.
When justices on the Court that bears Roberts’ name, paid back their appointment by a corrupt president with an opinion that provides immunity to all corrupt presidents, and weakened our democracy and the rule of law for the ages.
Our only remedy is the ballot box, a new congress, and a new Court — that has more reverence for the Constitution than the lust for power.
3/3

The Court holds that when a president acts within his ‘core’ authority, he is fully immune.
When he acts outside his core authority, but in an official capacity, the presumption of immunity is so strong as to be nearly absolute.
Even if he acts in a purely personal capacity, & the Court majority gives no indication of when that would be, his statements while acting officially may not be used as evidence, and his motives may not be questioned.
Having taken up a case they never should have, having waited until the last day to issue the opinion, having known it was the defendant’s strategy to deny justice by delaying it, the Court now remands the case for further proceedings of indeterminate length, ensuring there will be no accountability for Trump’s insurrectionist crimes before the election.
During his abortive #coup attempt, Trump told his acting attorney general and other top Justice Department officials to ‘just say that the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me and the Republican congressmen.’
Why would anyone ask for total immunity, unless he is looking to commit unspeakable crimes?
Who would grant such a request, unless they are looking to enable unspeakably atrocious crimes?
Law-abiding people do not ask for or permit total immunity.
Our constitution doesn't provide immunity, that is the whole point no one is above the law. The corrupt six will be removed, and their "opinion" is unconstitutional and corrupt.
We can not allow their perversion to stand. This is the beginning of their end.
Peace through strength 💪
