MO Gov Mike Kehoe is calling a special session to gerrymander the 5th District which encompasses Kansas City. He is specifically violating Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, which bans any voting practice that denies or weakens the power of a racial minority to elect its preferred candidates.
Great news @KendallScudder the Texas Democratic Party Chair will be at the RISE Summit on Friday Sept 12, talking about all we need to know about the TDP! @texasdemocrats #RISESummit
He doesn't scare me one bit.
Yeah, we need to rename that medal.
If they enact a new illegal congressional map, Missouri will be sued.
Anyway, I’m glad to know the president is still technically alive so he can watch this tomorrow www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

I know something that is inevitable that happens more often to old people and can't really be stopped
If we will never be a Socialist [sic] or Communist [sic] Country [sic], then why are you giving billions of dollars to farmers to make up for losses from your stupid tariffs (SOCIALISM) and having the US government own part of Intel (COMMUNISM)?
I will not shed a tear for that idiot
Who cares......
isn't she considering running for Governor or something? This comment should end that pipe dream.
This.
"We’ve seen it before: the Trump regime attempting to clandestinely and illegally remove people from the United States under the cover of darkness, only to be ordered to stop operations mid-flight." Terrified children shipped off to somewhere dangerous in the middle of the night. WTF are we doing?
WELKER: Do you have 100% confidence in Secretary Kennedy? LANKFORD: I believe he's who the president picked. He's challenging some of the assumption - what is it about autism? He seems to be following the science WELKER: The science has debunked links between autism & vaccines for more than 20 yrs
FEDERAL AGENTS TAKE NOTE… It’s not just Chicago standing strong. Other blue cities and governors are ready to unite against Trump’s federal invasion. I’m not an attorney, but this point seems huge: if federal agents break state or city laws, they can prosecuted. And Trump cannot pardon them.
😆
"The lunatics are running the asylum."
Trump limits National Guard assignments to 29 days at a time to keep the called up service members from getting healthcare and housing benefits while on duty. And the NG troops are catching on. Stereotypical Trump. Don't give those losers and suckers an extra dime. www.rawstory.com/trump-infuri...
Have Melania write another letter......
He’s providing them with valuable mulching experience though.
"The straw man being put forward is that it's either we have the military or we're going to get our throats cut at night in DC. Is there no middle ground? Do local law enforcement account for nothing? We've got the National Guard GARDENING right now in DC. Is that an efficient use of our resources?"
Oh
Damn it!
There’s a word for that: corruption.

“It does not matter if you’re a citizen, here on a green card, or visiting Las Vegas for the weekend — you shouldn’t have to fear retaliation because the government doesn’t like what you have to say.”
Bill Pulte has weaponized his office to attack Trump’s political enemies, including economist Lisa Cook. However, critics argue that Pulte's abuse of office is "a far, far greater offense than any personal mortgage occupancy fraud by a federal official."
The fact that this administration is hell bent on punishing Kilmar Abrego Garcia while rewarding Ghislane Maxwell tells you all you need to know about their violent racism and misogyny.
After being kidnapped, trafficked overseas, and spending 160 days away from his family, Kilmar Abrego Garcia—who just finally reunited with family—was taken into ICE custody after his immigration check-in. The Trump regime is a white supremacist terrorist organization posing as the U.S. government.
Mississippi is now sending their National Guard to D.C. too. 🤔 Now seems like a good time to bring up that Mississippi has one of America's highest murder rates; roughly 40% of those killings go unsolved. Maybe THEY need the National Guard.
The day is rapidly approaching when National Guard or military will be ordered to fire on US civilians.
It's not just using the National Guard against People of Color It's gerrymandering in Texas-depriving them of representation It's ordering the Smithsonian to erase slavery from US history It's attacking birthright citizenship And it's all a reflection of Trump's warped, racist view of America
To any National Guard member that is activated in the coming months remember👇🏼 Following unlawful orders is a violation of your oath to the constitution! 🇺🇸💙
"If Joe Biden federalizes the National Guard, that would be a direct attack on states' rights." - Kristi Noem, Feb 6, 2024
Hey military, National Guard, Federal law enforcement officers, & community police! First they came for your oath. Then they came for your honor. Is this what you were born for? Is this going to be your legacy?
'A member of the District of Columbia National Guard, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told Task & Purpose that the move to arm Guardsmen was unnecessary. “Us being out there is not sending a message other than clear provocation to our own populace,” the National Guard member said.'
I wonder if the National Guard knew that the president had raped a 13 year old at an Epstein party they’d turn around from strolling DC and head to the WH to arrest him.
I feel for the troops. They have families, including kids starting school. Not that Trump or Hegseth care.
🇺🇸 National Guard soldier speaks out: “I swore an oath to defend our constitution… seeking refuge is not an act of violence. Locking people up for it is.”
Who thinks Trump is using the National Guard as a distraction from the Epstein files?
He just keeps pushing the envelope and no one stops him. He gets a high off the power he has.
"Only Nancy Pelosi had the power to call up the National Guard in DC."
Footage of yesterday’s rally in DC against Trump’s extremist regime and the deployment of the national guard. “Trump must go now” ✊🏻
Breaking: Trump's next terrorist attack will be on Chicago per WaPo. Several thousand guard and possibly active troops. It's unconstitutional of course but who's going to stop him? His whores on the Supreme Court? www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
Happening now in DC: protesters are gathering in the streets awaiting for the national guard and Trump.
Donald Trump's threat to bring the National Guard to Chicago isn't about safety — it's a test of the limits of his power and a trial run for a police state. Illinois has long worked with federal law enforcement to tackle crime, but we won't let a dictator impose his will.
So, has Pritzker ensured that he has constitutional loyalists leading the national guard, who are prepared and willing to refuse an order to federalize? Like, every Dem Governor needs to purge their national guard leadership of anyone they aren't confident would refuse an order to federalize.
My name is Captain Dylan Blaha and this message is for members of the National Guard across the United States of America.
This captain in the National Guard has an urgent warning for National Guardsmen who are being deployed and used as Gestapo pawns in the authoritarian dictator-wannabe's fascist power grab. 😳👇
INSANE
What every protester should hand to national guard members.
NYC — This Do Not Turn On Us webinar tomorrow (8/24) is a great way to get prepared for the National Guard being deployed to our city. Register here: bit.ly/oath0824
That got us wondering: How would those governors feel if National Guard troops from other states were ordered onto their streets, perhaps to patrol one of the 53 cities in those states with a higher murder rate than Washington’s? So, we asked them. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/the...
Former National Guard Vice Chief Major General Randy E. Manner says deploying the Guard to D.C. will ruin how the average American views the military.
I don't know how Pritzker will ultimately handle this. He may not know either. But he's establishing a line here: Federal troops and National Guard troops from other states are not welcome in Illinois.

Call in the National Guard to help the residents of Charleston. Oh, wait. South Carolina’s governor sent them to DC for Trump’s occupation.
But protecting pedophiles like Ghislaine Maxwell and pardoning insurrectionists? Is this why people enlist in the National Guard? To terrorize fellow Americans? www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
I will not authorize the use of the Maryland National Guard for any mission that isn’t mission critical or mission aligned. Full stop.
If a Democratic president starting sending Blue state national guard troops to occupy a red city as a power grab, the GOP officials in that state would arrest the invading guard troops to send a message that they are defending their sovereignty.
Epstein
Response to trump’s threat to send National Guard troops to Chicago. He is wrong on every level. #Pinks #ProudBlue
🤬
Gov Pritzker responds to reports Trump is deploying the National Guard to Chicago
This is great: a National Guardsman standing up to say every member of the National Guard and military "is legally obliged to disobey an illegal order."
I’m sure the South Carolina National Guard will be in hand to help the state’s resid— Hang on, I’m being handed something
Headline: Trump mobilizing National Guard in 19 states My mood: They didn’t start off wearing red robes…
My name is Captain Dylan Blaha, and this message is for members of the National Guard across the USA. I've served in the Illinois Army National Guard for over 12 years, including a deployment to Afghanistan and three years on active duty in Europe. What's going on right now is not normal.
The safety of the people of Illinois is always my top priority. There is no emergency that warrants the President of the United States federalizing the Illinois National Guard, deploying the National Guard from other states, or sending active duty military within our own borders.
Message to the National Guard
Sadly, we do not have a President who can hold an intelligent debate on this subject so there is no use in bringing it up to him. The GOP in Congress are only interested in what profit they can make off of policies.
Trump and the GOP don't give a shit.
I am pretty generous with what I buy for my grandkids, but these dolls are way too expensive.
Trump is the ignorant pawn; the Federalist Society and Heritage Foundation are the drivers.
The GOP is "doing all of this because they are in full panic. Should they lose the House, there will be accountability for the crimes and corruption ... There will be the prospect of free and fair elections in 2028—And they fear all of those things." trib.al/6FzhJ2o
From redistricting to the District of Columbia, we are facing a bona fide fascist takeover of the United States. trib.al/8gDdAl7
Not to mention a grown man choosing to wear a ridiculous hat. #MentalHealth
Change sexual abuser to murderer and then ask the same questions.
Key words, Trump's DoJ 🤬
INSANE!
In favor of Tucker Carlson or Sean Hannity?? 😡
I hope there is some type of compensation for these military officials that are being fire for no good reason.
Trump does realize the Kennedy Center is not one of his properties, correct?
Well I feel better now. I mean, Trump barely knew Epstein!! 🙄
So apparently JD Vance knew about the raid on Bolton's house, but Trump knew NOTHING?? I think not.
Here is how the media should be reporting this morning's news. As part of a growing pattern of political retribution, Donald Trump's FBI has raided the home of a prominent administration critic. In this instance it happens to be John Bolton. The pretense is largely irrelevant.
Someone has to stand up to Trump! This is getting ridiculous.
