Cue Trump attacks on the “lunatic” parliamentarian.

My state has had a legislative GOP supermajority for 22 years. Missouri is ranked: 50th in classroom funding 49th in starting teacher pay 7th highest in gun deaths 6th highest in maternal mortality Republicans can’t govern and you can look at every red state to come to that conclusion.

Where is Melania? Are she and poopy ants still married? Why is the media not talking about this? She has not even restated her “be best” campaign. If Dr. Biden or Michelle Obama were not living in the White House, Faux News and Jake Tapper would only be discussing that.

Who had “housing market collapse” on their 2025 Bingo card??

Bibi Netanyahu being boycotted by UN diplomats. It’s time for this criminal to face the consequences of his atrocities.

So this sad excuse of a Governor signs a law requiring 10 Commandments in public classrooms and vetoes summer meals for those same students…Crippled racist zealot he is

Oh

Day 58 of photoshopping @lastweektonight.com's John Oliver with fossils in the hopes that he saves the Paleontological Research Institution Our Tiktaalik roseae plush is ready to run...er flop away with a special comedian (H. sapiens), don't let the sun set on their home #savePRI #JohnOliver ⚒️🧪

Trump bombing a country, declaring a ceasefire, then awarding himself a peace prize for it is peak MAGA.

It should say “White men find work terribly difficult when they can’t insult, molest, or demean coworkers.”

#ResistanceUnited Let's have a round of applause for Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough. She's washed some of the ugliness out of the Big Ugly Bill: kneecapping the judiciary, killing the CFPB, auctioning off federal land, and more. It's still big and ugly, but we need some wins right now.

This is exactly right!

The Trump administration moved to roll back the 2001 Roadless Rule, opening 58M acres of protected forest—including Alaska’s Tongass—to logging, roads, and development. The change threatens critical habitat for species like the rare Alexander Archipelago wolf. bit.ly/44t75k2

They’re assaulting the mothers and fathers of US soldiers. Roving gangs of masked men grab human beings off the street. They send them without due process to prisons in countries they’re not even from where they are then sold into slavery. Make it stop!!!

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @kenmartin.bsky.social Still on the fence as to whether I blame bonespurs or your party's ineptitude for where we are today....

If there's not already a Patriot missile battery at Mar-a-Lago, don't be surprised if one rapidly gets installed, or Navy ships with anti-missile weaponry are stationed right off shore.

When Iranian terrorists inevitably strike us in retaliation, remember that the damage, injury, and death will be securely in the hands of Donald Trump, Pete Hegseth, and this Administration.

AOC: “It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”

New in PN: Trump’s reckless Iran strikes could backfire spectacularly "America has entered few wars with less forethought, less deliberation, and more contempt for the public. Trump has recklessly endangered the country and world. It’s not much consolation that he may also have endangered himself."

I sure would love to see all the democrats in Congress on the Capitol steps calling for impeachment in one voice. I know we can't do it without republican votes, but it sure would be nice to see a loud, unified message. I'll be calling my reps today and asking them to please do this. Join me.

No money for Medicaid or SNAP or museums or schools or sidewalks or gun violence prevention or art or libraries. Always money for war.

Trump started his war on Iran because he's lost America: new polling shows his approval UNDERWATER in FIFTEEN states he WON last November. And now he wants regime change too. New Countdown podcast at midnight eastern

Who did this? 😂

REMINDER: Obama admin and US allies had reached a deal with Iran to ensure they would not develop a nuclear weapon. But in 2018 Trump ended that deal at the request of Netanyahu. This is 2018 article from Times of Israel www.timesofisrael.com/in-recording...

Shout out to the residents of Sitka Alaska. Great protest today! 💙 Huge potential issue of Yam Tits trying to sell large chunks of the Tongass National Forest to the north and south of the city for major timber extraction. If you have ever been on a cruise to SE Alaska, you know the beauty of this.
