Brain scan failed to find anything, and I mean anything. A soul transplant was attempted but her body rejected it.

The whole damn Big Ugly Bill is a poison pill. Millions will lose health care, progress on climate change will go into reverse, and the rich will get so much richer. Who imagined Senate Republicans would produce a turd even larger and more disgusting than House Republicans delivered? (Gift article)

@NYTimes, doing what it does best, assists the Trump administration by circulating pro-war propaganda. Are these four journalists' names just pen names being used by Judith Miller?

",,,his posture has gyrated." 😂 Trump has no foreign policy moorings, aside from doing whatever keeps autocrats like Netanyahu and Putin happy.

The "peace president" doesn't sound very "peace-ish" any longer. Tulsi Gabbard must be squirming. Earlier today, when reminded by a journalist that his DNI concluded that Iran is not ready to develop a nuclear weapon, he dismissed her analysis with an "I don't care."

Republicans truly hate it when citizens try to get involved in governance. They absolutely despise democracy.

I don't care what my Director of National Intelligence said. Bibi tells me they do. The "peace president" wants war. He wants it in Gaza, in Iran, in Ukraine, and in LA.

Senator Mike Lee of Utah is a poor excuse for a US Senator and a poorer excuse for a human being. His comments about the senseless murders in Minnesota were false, painful and entirely unnecessary. The Senate is derelict if they don't censure him. #ResignMikeLee

No. He's not doing shit with Israel/Iran. He left early because the other 6 refused to treat like a king. They hurt his feelings.

While the energy provisions in the Senate bill text largely help clean up some of the mess the House made, this here, the Medicaid and SNAP cuts, should lead the news every day and anyone who votes for it should never win another election.

Or...Smith or Klocuchar should demand that Mike Lee publicly apologize to the families of the dead and injured as well as all those he scapegoated...on the Senate floor.
