This is deeply disgusting. Wearing his pathetic campaign hat to the West Point graduation.

Rand Paul: "Somebody has to stand up and yell, 'the emperor has no clothes.' Everybody is falling in lockstep on this -- 'Pass the big beautiful bill. Don't question anything.' Well, conservatives do need to stand up ... if we don't stand up on it, I really fear the direction the country is going."

GALLEGO: You requested $50m for a Gulfstream jet. Meanwhile, Rs are about to kick 13m off Medicaid. How can you justify that? NOEM: It's to replace a jet that's over 20 years old G: Would you be using it for travel? N: No idea G: We've seen the Instagram photos. Some really bad weapons handling.

House GOP is holding a hearing on their tax bill at 1:00 AM because they don't want us to know about their scheme to strip 13.7 million people of health coverage & they think no one will stay awake for it. I’ll be there, testifying & offering amendments to protect our families.

Cato has published my comprehensive review of the ~240 Venezuelans the US government renditioned 2 months ago to Salvador’s notorious prison. We identified FIFTY who came legally, never violated any immigration law, but are imprisoned at the US government’s request and at US taxpayer expense.

When we get through this despicable period in America—and we will get through it—Americans will have learned why and how important government is to making life better.

Now we see Walmart is raising prices bc of Trump’s brainless tariffs, which are violently assaulting both big and small businesses! Didn’t have to be this way! Congress has the power to AXE THE TRUMP TAX, but Republicans are too afraid to do it. Their weakness costs YOU money!

I’m just a girl staring at my screens waiting for the media to focus on the CURRENT president’s cognitive decline (as well as his DAILY corruption) instead of focusing on the FORMER president’s health.

An electorate who thinks it’s OK to vote for a man who has zero interest in public service but just exploiting public office to enrich himself is a broken electorate.

Good morning to everyone but the most corrupt president to ever exist, who is at this moment selling out his nation to the funders of terrorism so his boy can sign another $2 billion deal. Oh and Tom Holman

Let’s clear something up: SNAP stands for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program — the LARGEST federal program to fight hunger in the country! It blows my mind that the party that touts its “Christian values” is the same party that is SET on taking food from the hungry.

What if a South African is mixed race? Can they come too or do you have to be 100% white?

Paul: They started out at 145% got down to 80% now 30%. It is 30% more than we have on currently. It will be a 30% rise in goods coming from China, and somebody will pay that, it will be the consumer.

the helix nebula has always been one of my favorites cause it looks like a giant space eyeball

The Afrikaner stunt is the kind of thing that has backfired so far -- it creates legal arguments for other refugees about animus. But holy hell he's not hiding the white sheets.

"Your agency acts as if laws don’t matter, as if the election gave you some mandate to violate the Constitution and the laws passed by this Congress. It did not give you that mandate." --Sen. Chris Murphy confronting DHS Secy Kristi Noem www.americaamerica.news/p/confrontin...

Let’s set aside that Pam Bondi used to rake in $115K a month from Qatar, and now says that “flying grift” is totally fine. On its face, this jet makes no sense as Air Force One. Hear me out: There’s supposed to be two identical Air Force One jets…

Same day he strips our Afghan allies of their protected status after fighting and working by our sides for years. Just absolutely monstrous.

These fucking cowards.

As a former AUSA and federal criminal trial lawyer, I’m here to tell you that no prior Administration would have publicly announced a criminal investigation of an individual before there was an indictment. www.cbsnews.com/news/letitia...

Trump says he wants to fight antisemitism—then nominates Ed Martin, a Nazi sympathizer’s fanboy who lied about it, to be U.S. Attorney for D.C. Call your Senators and tell them: Enough lip service. If they really want to fight antisemitism, they need to reject Ed Martin. @dougjones.bsky.social

Dr. Hayden has been such a transformative and inspiring Librarian for the past decade. If you haven't had the privilege to spend time with LC staff, you may not realize what a sea change she brought to our national library. One of the all-time greats. A huge loss for millions and millions.

We should be grateful to the Lord to now be blessed with having an American on the world stage who embodies good and not evil.

the right to defend your country is a *crazy* thing to take away from people.

Congratulations to His Holiness Pope Leo XIV on his historic selection. Doug and I join millions across our nation and around the world in praying for him as he steps into his new role and leads the Catholic Church.

When we say we’re organizing everywhere, we mean it. Our groups are organizing the pro-democracy majority in all 435 congressional districts to reclaim its power. Find your local group: indivisible.org/groups Or let us help you get started: indivisibleproject.f...

MAJOR BREAKING: Congresswoman Sara Jacobs has introduced a bill called the DELETE DOGE Act that would completely defund and stop Elon Musk’s operation. This needs to pass.

I know some of you may do this anyway, but I nonetheless urge you NOT to send items like these to the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia, 601 D St. NW, Washington, DC 20530. Please do NOT do that. Thank you.

So the useless Republicans spent today arguing over this so-called “Gulf of America,” instead of doing their jobs and axing this pathetic TRUMP TAX, also known as tariffs. You’re paying the biggest tax hike EVER because these puppets want to play fantasy over some water! Sad!

What can we do about $90 million jets continuing to fall off carriers into the Red Sea? When are going to get around to that stuff?

the planes falling of aircraft carrier thing would carry republican messaging for the next 3 months if it was a dem in charge

im beginning to think its a bad idea for america to antagonize its allies while at the same time completely isolating us from the rest of the world both economically and militarily for no real reason and with no stated goal

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.

1. BREAKING A hacker has breached and stolen customer data from TeleMessage, an obscure Israeli company that sells modified versions of Signal and other messaging apps to the U.S. government to archive messages. TeleMessage is the platform that Mike Waltz was seen using during a cabinet meeting.

Warnock: Georgia officials said they were sorry but their hands were tied, you can’t vote the first weekend of the runoff after the holiday so I decided to untie them, I sued them. And I won… They appealed asking for emergency relief. Emergency relief from what? People voting?

“Maybe your kid gets just 2 dolls instead of 30”.

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x convicted felon & adjudicated rapist Trump did.

Hey, is life imprisonment with no chance of parole a normal sentence for crossing the border illegally or

"My faith in the Constitution is whole; it is complete; it is total. And I am not going to sit here and be an idle spectator to the diminution, the subversion, the destruction of the Constitution." — Rep. Barbara Jordan in 1974 ⚖️

Kemp won’t run for Senate in GA. Marge Greene “seriously looking” at it. Trump pushes tariffs on movies, wants to reopen Alcatraz, & lashes out over questions about his Pope AI image. And yes, that’s just the beginning. Catch up now:

REPORTER: The president says he doesn't know what his responsibilities are under Article 5 of the Constitution. Who would it be who would educate him about that? HOMAN: I think the president is one of the most if not the most knowledgeable president that we've ever had

So... 1. Alcatraz is not "in the middle of the Pacific," it's in the SF Bay 2. There won't be a "cost savings" because the reason they shut it down was it was more costly to operate than any other prison (and not by a little bit).

A gift to the NRA.

Page One must have been crowded. So NYT puts it on Page 13. 🤡 @schooley.bsky.social

Pass it on…
