Since America's founding, our service members have laid down their lives for an idea unlike any other: the idea of the United States.

Today, as generations of heroes lie in eternal peace, we live by the light of liberty they kept burning.

May God bless them, always.

(1). Here's a thread for anyone who's been conned into believing Donald Trump cares about the US military or our troops.

-Faked a disability 5 times to avoid a war he didn't oppose
-5 non-rich guys went to Vietnam in his place
-Tried to kick homeless vets off 5th Ave

As we mark Memorial Day, and honor the fallen, this thread serves as an incredibly important reminder.

If you don’t know what Project 2025 is — you should. Everyone needs to check this out. Keep it. Remember it.

Project 2025, simply put, is the Republican playbook for taking away our rights if they win the presidency.

The plan is to reshape the executive branch of the U.S.

Jasmine Crockett is a fucking star. Before Crockett, no one in congress had exposed the true agenda of Project 2025. Because of Crockett, we now know. The plan is to elect Trump, dismantle democracy and turn America into a fascist, authoritarian dictatorship.

Breaking: Supreme Court 6-3 decision by Alito (!) upholds South Carolina congressional district that lower court called 'stark racial gerrymander'

took 15 rounds to elect its speaker

removed a member of their party

had a failed impeachment of a President

.President Biden just confirmed his 200th judge – not an easy accomplishment with a narrow majority in the Senate. And more than half are women and people of color.
 
Judges have the power to roll back progress or keep us moving forward; to protect our basic liberties or take them away.

Reminder that the MAL docs case was and will always have been the cleanest, most straightforward criminal prosecution of the four against the former president.

That the public won't see it brought to fruition before they go to the voting booth is a stain on the judicial system.

“This was not a campaign video, it was created by a random account online and reposted by a staffer who clearly did not see the word, while the President was in court,” said Trump spokesperson Karoline Leavitt.
