Dems are going to continue to have a problem with the fact that more conservative minority communities are opposed to their attempts to impose far-left ideologies and simply trying to portray those minorities as pawns of the right won’t make it go away.
This sets up an intersectional conflict on the left, where someone’s identity is often used as a trump card for winning arguments. What happens when those on the intersectional pyramid reject far-left doctrine?

You can try to frame them as traitors or pawns, but not convincing.
You really think anyone will buy Muslim parents in Dearborn are upset over gender ideology in schools because they are ticked by the GOP? Or that Asian-American parents are upset over their kids getting rejected at Ivy Leagues because they were tricked by the right?
Same with the minority parents rejecting CRT in the curriculum. I mean you’re free to argue that those minorities no longer count on your pyramid because they are rejecting these views, but simply attacking them as ignorant pawns likely won’t help.

Trump faces 38 counts, not one of them is related to mishandling of classified documents.

Here is the indictment: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
Let’s go through what Trump is actually charged with. Counts 1-31 relate to willful retention of national defense information. Here is the relevant statute.

Basically says he had docs he wasn’t supposed to and fails to deliver when asked for them back. Image
The actual legal defense for Trump here is going to be argue the documents belong to him. What Trump could have easily done is hand over the docs when asked for them OR go to court and argue that they are his. Instead, he did things that led to the rest of the charges.

This is just dishonest. They promised 100% would go toward the wall.

Here is the indictment. Bannon receive $1 M. He spent hundreds of thousands on personal expenses and used fake invoices to transfer much of the rest to Kolfage.

They went out of their way to tell Trump supporters they wouldn't get a penny, then used fake invoices to steal the money.

Saying they spent some money on a barrier doesn't change the facts and donors couldn't have complained because they didn't know they were being scammed. Image
It is very revealing who is comfortable with someone running that type of scam on Trump supporters.

I mean read this quote from Kolfage vs reality: ImageImage

This is indisputably false and it was debunked over a day ago. A news organization that intentionally spread misinformation on something like this can’t be trusted to report on just about any topic.

And it’s about time we start calling out reporters directly. While @FRF_12 likely didn’t write the false “banned” headline, she did claim the book was put on a restricted list in the article.

Where did she get that from? There is no such list.
The school had to send out this message to parents today correcting the record because of the mob egged on by the press spreading falsehoods: Image

New rule for the primary: Every time Trump, who claimed to only hire the best people, makes a post attacking one of his own former hires, I will donate $10 to the DeSantis campaign.

*Limit of $50 per day because this could get expensive.
This is definitely going to get expensive… ImageImage
Grateful that Trump was golfing at the Saudi-sponsored event today so the hit wasn’t that bad on day 2. ImageImage

Now @DrJBhattacharya is on the space talking about his experience w DeSantis during Covid and the efforts to open up schools. Now asks about plans to reform the public health institutions.

DeSantis says we need to start with an honest reckoning and acknowledgment of failures.
Congressman Massie asked about overreach of executive agencies. DeSantis talks about agencies far exceeding their mandates, need for executive limits, pairing back Chevron deference, and Congress using the power of the purse so agencies don't distort previously granted powers.
Now @realchrisrufo is joining.

DeSantis points out that there have been no books banned in Florida. Instead says Florida has empowered parents to review and have a voice in setting the curriculum.

How are you guys so clueless and gullible that you fall for bogus stories every day.

No book was banned and it had nothing to do with the state. A school district reviewed 4 books, and decided 3 of them were more appropriate for middle school kids than elementary kids. Image
This is seriously becoming an every day thing. Someone makes a bogus claim and reporters like this clown help spread it:
Here is another one.

Did @abbydphillip take even 2 seconds to learn what actually happened? No, she just ran with the idea the book was banned (instead of being moved to the middle school section of the library)?
