“The judge in #Trump’s hush money criminal case on Friday turned down TFG’s request to postpone his trial bc of publicity about the case.

It’s the latest in a string of delay denials that Trump has gotten from various courts this week as he fights to stave off the trial’s start Monday with jury selection.

@GottaLaff He literally won’t shut up, so he’s corrupted the entire population of potential jurors. It’s only TFGs fault.

Let’s get this straight, once and for all: Ashli Babbitt died committing an armed insurrection. She died following the orders of Donald Trump.

"The fact that Israel's government is far-right is in no small part due to the support (of far-right governments in general but in Israel in particular) of a lobby of far-right nationalist Christian extremists in the U.S. who see the gathering of all Jewish people in Israel as a part of the fulfillment of an apocalyptic prophecy that will end with a handful of true-believer Christian people" (continued in /2)

New fundraising numbers just out from the #Biden-Harris campaign:

$90 million raised in March (#Trump raised $65 million)

$192 million cash-on-hand (Trump has $93 million on hand)

The campaign raised $187 million in the first quarter of 2024.

@yosasocial @blogdiva @philip_cardella @GottaLaff @tersenurse The blue states want to abolish the EC, but not enough have signed on yet

wendinoakland , 2 months ago

@philip_cardella @yosasocial @blogdiva @GottaLaff @tersenurse There’s an effort to overturn the EC with current ECVs collected at around 205. If they reach 270, the popular vote will become law:

Things I won’t miss when we move to BC🇨🇦:

California red areas all the way home. Billboards for The Epoch Times. Trump banners. Fascist variations of the American flag. Anti-Newsom/Pelosi signs.

Instant anxiety inducers.
