Jasmine Crockett isn't being quiet about it—when it's time to elect the next House Oversight Committee ranking member, she wants the job. And she’s earned it. Let's back up @repjasmine.bsky.social . We need her voice in leadership—ASAP!

This should really be all anyone needs to know. He only cares about giant corporations and the oligarchs that fund him. Everyone else? Good luck.

A gift to the NRA.

Is this bad? I'm no international shipping expert, but this sounds bad.

Donold, you can’t be pope. The job requires humility, grace... and literacy skills.

My god i hate this timeline...

Joel Osteen’s mega church got $4.4 million in PPP loans, pays zero in taxes, owns two houses in Houston with one a 17,000-square-foot residence features six bedrooms, six bathrooms, three elevators, a one-bedroom guest house, and a pool house that Jesus died for.

🇺🇦🗣️ Zelensky: This war will end, just as eternal dictatorships fall. Just as any empire built on the principles of war, disrespect for people and their rights, disdain for human life, comes to an end.

Things the president of the United States said on meet the press today: He doesn’t know if he has to follow the constitution He’s fine with a recession Americans can do with less Small businesses are just “a couple of little businesses”

Because movie tickets weren’t expensive enough.

I’m no lawyer, but if a president doesn’t support the Constitution, then maybe he should just run for mayor instead. We’ve got a country to run, not a guessing game about the rules.

"There was not a single uniformed personnel on that Signal chain – which was very clear that it was purposefully done to keep the military personnel with the experience off of that Signal chat." Senator Tammy Duckworth

The folks that organize around school board races to make sure right wingers don’t take over are heroes

Duckworth on if she's open to voting to confirm Mike Waltz: "I think everybody on that Signal chain needs to be fired ... he's failing up ... I'm not open to voting for him, no, because he's already demonstrated he's incapable of doing the most basic thing, which is handling classified information."

These m’fers are so corrupt and are all racists

Fixed it…

Billionaires get a tax cut. Big Bird gets laid off. Congrats, Trump voters. You defunded kindness for nothing!

It's absolutely wild that DOGE is cutting spending everywhere they really shouldn't but Republicans are trying to increase defense spending by 13% to $1 trillion with their budget. This cartoon is spot on.

First Germany said NO to fascism and Trumpism. Then Canada said NO to fascism and Trumpism. And now Australia has said NO to fascism and Trumpism. The people of the world are speaking with their votes and we want democracy not authoritarianism. #SheShed
