Prediction: If TRUMP somehow steals this Election, before May 2025, VANCE will invoke the 25th Amendment.
VANCE will certainly become president if TRUMP wins the Election. There are numerous scenarios whereby VANCE ascends to the presidency, while VANCE is a terrible candidate, he is very cunning and calculating, no one should underestimate VANCE’s ability to manipulate a given situation.

I was literally thinking about this all week. Vance has been incredibly smug to me, and emboldened for a man as repulsive as he is. A vote for Trump is a vote for Vance…to be President. He is spouting Project 2025 objectives more and more.
These are dangerous times. Vance was groomed, thanks to MAGA ignorance he was elected and the ball was in motion. The Heritage Foundation was so confident they openly shared their plans.
They are working overtime to steal every vote for Trump in Red states and using gerrymandered legislators and packed courts to deliver us on a platter into a fascist dictatorship, turn this entire country into a white ethno Christofascist nation cut off from the rest of the world with Vance at the helm..

🗞️ This week’s column: Biden’s policy on Ukraine is emboldening Putin and eroding European security. Ukraine must have the ability to strike back against the very military facilities visiting death upon its people.

The free world is sitting on €360 billion of Putins money parked in their bank accounts. It would be a crime to give this money back to this killer in Moscow. So Give this money to Ukraine. Now. You will feel good in doing so.

Reminder that @AOC's questioning of @MichaelCohen212 triggered Tish James's investigation when she asked "did the president ever provide inflated assets to an insurance company." That led to Tish James's investigation which forced Trump to $364 million.

.@AOC uses her questioning time to ask follow-ups highlighting some figures in Trumpworld who could help answer questions raised by Cohen's testimony -- David Pecker and Allen Weisselberg among them

Ok fellow mayosapiens, pay attention. Whenever Black people, particularly during February, are discussing their lived experience, history, and culture here is the rule:

Hey, MSNBC: You chose to air Donald Trump's victory night speech & gave him one fact-check, but he's now going on & spreading conspiracy theories incessantly again. It's time to cut out completely & stop giving Trump free air-time to spread his lies without any facts.

Bernanke is on his hands and knees right now begging for a bailout of his hedge funds masters.
This is the guy who killed moral hazard, the arsonist who sleepwalked into 2008, who has been RICHLY rewarded for his service to kleptocracy.
F*** you, Ben. @benbernanke
Bernanke and Yellen: “The Fed could ask Congress for the authority to buy limited amounts of investment-grade corporate debt.”

This is appalling. Cmon US Members of Congress! Approve new military aid to Ukraine next week. There is no more time to waste.
Russia is using five times more artillery shells per day than Ukraine, - WSJ.
Yes, Ukraine requires assistance. Yes, the commitment “as long as it takes” is more than anyone expected or wanted. However, NATO nations must acknowledge that there is no security architecture for Europe without Ukraine. This is an undeniable truth. Hence, there is a compelling need to intensify, not diminish, the defense support for Ukraine.

In a key exchange in the 1866 Senate debate, Sen. Reverdy Johnson asked why the offices of president and vice president had been omitted from Section 3 of the 14th Amendment.
Sen. Justin Morrill quickly clarified: "'Let me call the Senator's attention to the words 'or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States,' Morrill said, ending the discussion on that point."
A second quote sheds light on another major question the courts have grappled with: Was Section 3 a prospective prohibition for insurrections yet to come?
Here's what Sen. Peter Van Winkle said: "This is to go into our Constitution and to stand to govern future insurrection as well as the present; and I should like to have that point definitely understood."

The Ukrainian army could suffer serious losses next year without new U.S. aid approved this week. I hope Republicans understand this fact. A Putin victory in Ukraine would be disastrous for American national security interests.

By never commenting on Trump’s legal woes, Dems let Trump say, completely uncontested, that Biden’s directing all of it behind the scenes. It would be so easy to say “he has legal trouble because he’s a crook, we’ve done nothing.” I know Dems think it doesn’t matter. But it does.
Page 1: STATEMENT OF 45th PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP! AS EVERYONE KNOWS, I HAVE VERY SUCCESSFULLY & CONCLUSIVELY TESTIFIED IN THE CORRUPT, BIDEN DIRECTED, NEW YORK STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S RIGGED TRIAL AGAINST ME. WORLD RENOWNED EXPERTS, HIGHLY RESPECTED BANK & INSURANCE EXECUTIVES, REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONALS, AS WELL AS OTHERS, BOTH HONEST & CREDIBLE, HAVE STATED, CLEARLY & UNEQUIVOCALLY, THAT I, & MY VERY SUCCESSFUL COMPANY, DID NOTHING WRONG! MY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS WERE CONSERVATIVE, LIQUID, & “EXTRAORDINARY.” A TOP PROFESSOR FROM NYU STERN SAID, “IF MR. TRUMP WERE MY STUDENT, HE WOULD GET AN ‘A’ ON HIS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. IV’E NEVER SEEN A STATEMENT THAT PROVIDED SO MUCH DETAIL, & IS SO TRANSPARENT, AS THESE STATEMENTS.” PLUS, THEY ALL HAVE AN IRONCLAD DISCLAIMER CLAUSE STATING THAT THE USERS MUST DO THEIR OWN DUE DILIGENCE & ANALYSIS - NO RELIANCE! THE ONLY FRAUD COMMITTED WAS BY THE HIGHLY PARTISAN & OUT OF CONTROL JUDGE, & RACIST A.G. (WHO PROMISED THAT, “I WILL GET TRUMP”)….

When Italy invaded Ethiopia, many Americans said not our problem. When the Japanese invaded China, many said not our problem. When Germany & USSR invaded Poland, many still said not our problem. Then in 1941, they all became our problem. Let’s not repeat those mistakes today.
