I kinda remember there may be some amendment to the Constitution that might be relevant here. I vaguely recall it has kind of a low number and comes up high in the list

The guiding forces in today’s GOP are nihilism, narcissism, and sadism.

Notice how Zelensky conducted his strike in Russia WITHOUT using Signal chat.

🦋 Children with Covid end up in E.R more than all groups under 75 years old RFK Jr 'removed' the CDC vaccine recommendation for children, yet their own data confirms children aged to 11 years old are at higher risk of ending up in an emergency room if they contract Covid-19 Data & science matter 👇

@jamestalarico.bsky.social: "The Christians in Congress should be feeding the hungry, but they're cutting food stamps. They should be healing the sick, but they are cutting Medicaid. They should be standing up to the billionaire class, but instead they're cutting their taxes."

$45 million isn’t even close to what this will cost. theintercept.com/2025/05/29/t...

A worker making $50,000 a year contributes to Social Security with 100% of their income. A CEO making $20 million a year contributes to Social Security with less than 1% of their income. Does that sound fair to you?

Scalia's nakedly racist performance at the Shelby County oral arguments got about .1% of the coverage that it merited www.newyorker.com/news/amy-dav...

For too long, the history of the Tulsa Race Massacre–where a thriving community and lives were unjustly destroyed–has been ignored. But I’m proud to have passed out of the Senate…

7th District Congressman Eric Burlison won’t bother to engage with his constituents, but I will. I drove fours hours for this meeting and it was standing room only in Joplin, Missouri. #LFG

🚨 Tucked into the Republican BS Budget (section 70302) is a provision that would prevent courts from holding members of the Trump admin accountable via contempt rulings. Meaning, a judge could order an action (Ex: return illegally deported people), but couldn't force COMPLIANCE of those orders. 😳 🎧

Now THIS AND Our lunatic HHS Secretary RFKJR wants to halt bird flu vaccine ... This is happening here in Arizona, but I bet it's happening in lots of states And for sure they don't want you to know

Sens. Elizabeth Warren, Ron Wyden and Jack Reed cited our reporting on how one DOGE aide assigned to the CFPB helped oversee the mass layoffs of the agency’s staff while holding as much as $715K in stocks that bureau employees are prohibited from owning.

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

SpaceX supposedly enforces a zero-tolerance policy for drug use due to federal contract obligations with NASA and other agencies, which impacts security clearances and typically leads to termination. Why SpaceX’s board ok with this?

The Democrat’s top line ad theme for the midterms…

If it were ANYONE else, I'd be worried for them. Sigh, I really did used to be a nice person.

Alternet: The damage Elon Musk did to our gov't & its ability to serve people will be felt for years. His slash-and-burn tactics, his raids on data, and his almost cruel delight in firing gov't employees & closing entire agencies, leaves a horrific legacy. #ProudBlue #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

"Where are the Democratic leaders? We should have been dancing on this (the "We're all going to die!" remarks of Sen. Joni Earnst to her constituents who complained of healthcare cuts) two seconds after she said it!" -Rev. Al Sharpton He's exactly right. Where are they?

So, we have a President that reports would have it can’t control his bowels due to Adderall abuse, who turned power over to someone who reportedly can’t wee due to ketamine abuse? It’s like giving Olympic torch segments to arsonists. (Actually a million times worse.) Nicely done GOP. 🤬
