when you look at the powers trump is claiming and boil it down, he really does seem to see himself as the literal embodiment of the executive branch, if not the entire nation, and thus his authority extends to everything www.washingtonpost.com/entertainmen...

One passed laws for your kids. The other passed his hat for your cash.

If you know anything about RFK Jr the fact that he falsified the MAHA report should not surprise you in the least.

When you vote for the arsonist, don’t act surprised when he burns down your neighbor’s house.

"Well, we are all going to die." --Senator Joni Ernst That has to be the glibbest way any politician has ever told a constituent that they didn’t give a shit about them.

Exactly this! We on the frontlines saw a lot of pregnant women being very sick from covid. None of RFK Jr team members worked on the frontlines & they obviously cannot read & understand research data. 👇🏻 "As a practicing physician during the COVID pandemic, I saw too many of these women in the ICU."

RFK Jr. says the top scientific journals are “corrupt”. Yet his MAHA disinformation report includes fake references and grossly false statements. Reviewers and editors at any of these journals would have caught these, resulting in its wholesale rejection. Don’t give an inch to this charlatan.

Last year, a handful of Democrats tanked Joe Biden's impressive judicial nominee Adeel Mangi out of cowardice. Now Trump is ready to fill this U.S. appeals court seat with his pick: his own criminal defense attorney and "hatchet man" at DOJ. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

Why do people pay taxes if they receive no benefits? Reducing billionaires’s taxes does nothing for us. This bill that is now in the Senate needs to look at the revenue side. If millionaires/billionaires paid their fair share then we would have no problems providing essential services! Call Senators

F--k the New York Times. I just canceled my subscription.

-A living wage -Guaranteed healthcare -The right to join a union -The right to vote -The right to choose when, how, and with whom you start a family -The right for you and your family to live free from gun violence These are the foundations of real freedom.

Walter Cronkite never indulged in political fairy smut, but then he was a true journalist.

Donnie Batshit is threatening the lives of the Supreme Court Justices.

The house has passed a ban on coverage of gender care for all ages under Medicaid, CHIP and ACA plans. I don't know what to say to anyone this morning other than that the hundreds of thousands of people who are about to lose access to the care they need to stay alive deserve better than silence.

NEW: After four months of reporting, ProPublica found that the warnings about Helene were eerily accurate. Yet, local residents remained largely unaware of the enormity of danger approaching as the storm closed in. By @jenniferberryhawes.bsky.social @mrsimon22.bsky.social @cgaribay.bsky.social

AOC: When you wake up in the morning, you will realize that you voted to defund planned parenthood and take away health care from 13.7 million Americans and when this country wakes up there will be consequences to pay for this

BREAKING NEWS: Trump has taken possession of his bribe, in contravention of federal criminal statute and the Constitution. He’s hiding behind the USAF and DOJ to intimidate Congress—which must initiate impeachment proceedings. Bribery is one of two enumerated impeachable offenses. Much more here:

We only need four to grow a spine:

REPUBLICANS = DEATH. Never forget that.

Breaking news, no wonder they are voting on this vampire bill in the middle of the night. It includes 500 billion in cuts to Medicare, unravels the ACA, and would decimate Medicaid. Unconscionable and immoral.

Fact checking alone isn't enough when these people speak Fact-twist-checking is the new gold standard. Sheesh.

Bucharest is excited for their mayor, Nicușor Dan, to have been elected the new president of Romania! The world is rejecting Trumpism.

It seems to me that this administration will keep firing intelligence analysts until they can find one who will lie to justify the regime disappearing perceived enemies to foreign torture dungeons.

Yes, we noticed. You're still here.

A reminder that if the minimum wage had kept pace with worker productivity gains since the 1960s, it would now be nearly $26 an hour.

Where is RFK now? Sure he’s trying to get food dyes out of our food but that seems pointless if our water and air are filled with toxic chemicals.

Hey, Jake Tapper! White House aides are covering up the president’s decline! I look forward to your book about it!
