It's tough to refer to someone as a criminal if you've given them no due process to determine whether they're a criminal. Like if you get arrested and get a trial and are convicted of 34 felony counts. That's due process. You can call that guy a criminal.

New from @davidarmstrongx.bsky.social: When I was diagnosed with cancer, I set out to understand why a single pill of Revlimid cost the same as a new iPhone. I’ve covered high drug prices as a reporter for years. What I discovered shocked even me.

Which Trump officials will be on Fox today blaming Biden for stuff when they should be doing actual work for the American people at their agencies? At this point, taxpayers are just paying the salaries for a bunch of daily Fox contributors.

Trump said thousands of times that Russia never would have attacked Ukraine if he was president. He said Hamas would’ve never attacked Israel if he was president. Said he would end both in 24 hours. Wars continue in both places, and India & Pakistan are now at war.

THE PENTAGON BUDGET JUST HIT A TRILLION DOLLARS. Not a single pundit from either political party said “how are we going to pay for it?!” Don’t dare tell us we cannot ALL have healthcare, housing, and education.

Crockett: Instead of the President cosplaying as the next pope, he may want to cosplay as an actual President of these United States. That means he may have to do a little bit of research and understand that he swore a an oath to defend and protect the constitution.

Apparently, for Republicans… Sexual abuse is ok. Statutory rape is ok. Sex trafficking is ok. But don’t you dare try to forgive college loan debt. Now THAT’S a red line.

Congratulations to Mike Johnson for trying to pressure the House Ethics Committee into burying a report that found the then-nominee for attorney general had engaged in sexual activity with a minor. Party of Family Values, am I right?
