On this day 250 years ago, our forefathers gathered for a national day of fasting and prayer. Today, Americans will come together again as one Nation under God. This is who we are and who we’ve always been.

You presume (once again) George that there will be #FreeAndFairElections in the future. This is more doubtful than ever at this point. #Trumpistan. @georgetakei

#NuclearMadness and dubious finances in Utah. Go figure? #SMR #HALEU. #NuclearBros continue to run amuck while #NuclearGrifters siphon up funds everywhere. It will all end badly for you the taxpayer. #GriftersGonnaGrift until the money runs dry. Given the #Fact threat the US deficit now equals the US Budget it won’t be long. #Trumpistan. @dripping1911

The #GOP has always been a #CriminalEnterprise. Of this there is no doubt. Their thin veil of legitimacy was lost long ago. #GriftersGonnaGrift in #Trumpistan.

Has Trump's Republican Party Become a Criminal Enterprise?

Trump's purge of all political opponents, including Senator Bill Cassidy, leaves it with no purpose other than helping Trump achieve his lawless goals

Thousands gathered in Washington for an America-themed prayer rally

Thousands of people have streamed onto the National Mall in Washington for a daylong prayer rally. The event Sunday is billed as a “rededication of our country as One Nation under God.” President Donald Trump read a passage of Scripture in a video shown at the rally, the same footage used in a Bible-reading event last month. Most speakers celebrated Christianity’s ties to American history. It's a blending of ideas that critics flagged in advance of the prayer gathering as supporting Christian nationalism. The event was organized by a public-private partnership backed by the White House. Congressional Democrats see it as a Trump-controlled end run around a commission charted by Congress a decade ago to prepare 250th anniversary events.
