    As a reminder, The US has had 46 presidents. Among them, there have been 91 criminal felony charges indicted. Those charges are distributed among the presidents as in the following list: 1/2

    Biden made banks stop surprising you with hidden charges. That's gone now. $35 insulin is gone. Medicare negotiating drug prices--gone. EPA, HHS, Dept of Energy--gone. All consumer protections--gone. Dept of Labor. National Hurricane Center. NOAA. National Parks. 1/6

    This is spectacular. Right on the money. Whoever wrote this absolutely understands our popular culture.

    I'm sure you know this by now. Others have mentioned it. Germans voted in 1933. They did not keep Hitler out of power. They did not have the chance to vote again until 1949, after Hitler and 20 million other people had died. Defeat Trump. 1/3

    Good. Biden is a private citizen. This is what his doctor is supposed to do.

    This is the Loire, the longest river in France. It's gone now. It evaporated. That hasn't happened in at least 2000 years, and likely not at any time in recorded human history.

    Keep in mind, Amy Coney Barrett has said that given the chance, she would reverse Brown v Board of Education, because, she says, the Constitution does not provide a protected right to an education. You do not want a Republican President or Congress when she gets the case.

    Fun trivia. The people who wrote our Constitution weren't sure whether they were going to include a procedure for impeaching the President. Benjamin Franklin made the final argument to convince them. Want to know how he changed their minds? 1/3

    Medicaid provides reimbursement to medical providers for medical services. This means NO ONE can sit at home and collect Medicaid checks. The payments don't go to "Medicaid recipients." They go do doctors and hospitals. 1/5

    Harris spent most of the last month campaigning in swing states. I hope we can finally drop the ridiculous canard that Clinton lost because she didn't visit WE, MI and PA. No, that wasn't the reason. Harris and Clinton both lost for the same reasons. 1/2
