The foundational belief of the right wing is this:
I am rich because of my hard work, not just because I was born rich. You are poor because you are lazy, not just because you were born poor.
Raw Story:
Internet melts down as Trump identified as 'unindicted co-conspirator' in Arizona filing
Trump's own niece, Mary Trump, had this to say about the news from Arizona:
"Good. Now indict the unindicted."

New today: More than 1,000 captive trophy-hunting ranches operate in the United States, most of them in Texas. Some routinely offer hunts of endangered or threatened exotic species. This should not be allowed.

If you're an American born after 1969, you've never lived under a liberal-leaning U.S. Supreme Court.
If Hillary Clinton had been elected in 2016, that could have changed.
The U.S. could be much different.
Roe would still be the law of the land.
Justice and equality could move forward, not backward.
The Supreme Court, and federal courts, are reason enough to vote for Democrats.
Sent from a friend - honestly spot on.

“Alito doesn’t deny the flag was flying upside down, doesn’t deny its meaning, doesn’t express any disapproval for it and doesn’t disavow it.”
This wasn’t a random period of time. It was AFTER January 6 and BEFORE the inauguration.
ITS A SYMBOL OF INSURRECTION.
A Justice has never made a more persuasive case for the Legislature to kick them out on their ass for bad behavior than has Alito.

“The Board and the Governor have put their politics over justice and made a mockery of our legal system.”
Yesterday, Governor Greg Abbott issued a full pardon for Daniel Perry, who killed Garrett Foster, a protester at a Black Lives Matter march in 2020.
