Finding As Wretched A Candidate As Jasmeet Bains Won't Be Easy For California Democrats

She also claimed the attacks on her were “an attack on all healthcare providers.” It’s a cynical play straight out of Trump’s playbook— reframing documented facts as “violence” to shut down scrutiny.

In Praise Of The Messiah

Do Americans not see how embarrassing this is?” Ishaan Tharoor quipped that “The United Nations ‘was not created in order to bring us to heaven, but in order to save us from hell,’ the organization’s second secretary general once said. But what happens when it’s stuck in purgatory?… In his first term, Trump liked to grind his MAGA ax from the chamber’s dais.
Tucson progressive Adelita Grijalva won her late dad's congressional seat tonight, beating Trump lackey Daniel Butierez 57,953 (70.6%) to 22,709 (27.6%). Last year, Kamala won the district with 60.5%

From Saul To Manasseh to Trump: The Bible’s Long, Sordid Warning About Corrupt Leaders
