I'm only half-watching this Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, but it is hard to overstate how unprepared the committee's Democrats are to fight these nominees. A bunch of elderly statesmen bringing decorum to a gunfight. Pathetic. Get these losers out of my face forever.

Trump says he just spoke with Putin and describes Ukraine's recent drone attack in a way that makes it sound like Russia is a victim

#ProudBlue More evidence that the #GOPWarOnWomen is far from over. 47’s decision means women will die! apnews.com/article/abor...

I was turned away at my pharmacy today from getting a Covid vaccine. Even though I was willing to risk a sore shoulder Makary and Prasad felt I shouldn’t have that right. They made the decision for me. My medical freedom and bodily autonomy meant nothing to them.

Elon just spent 6 months taking food out of starving kids’ mouths, and even he can’t stomach this MAGA Murder Bill.

There are a number of House Republicans in swing districts claiming that the "big beautiful bill" they voted for does not cut Medicaid or increase the national debt. Just to be clear, this is a bald-faced, massive lie. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/02/u...

Mike Johnson is straight up lying. maybe their kind of Christians can break God's commandments as long as they get that damn tax break.

I feel safer already.

With this awful terror attack in Colorado, Congress needs to ask how many federal resources have been pulled from counterterrorism to deport Hispanics?

An epidemiologist at Columbia said the research article RFK Jr. cited with her name is fake. The paper itself does not exist. Fake scientific papers used by the government to influence policy is fascism.

I don't respect people who respect him.

Needs to be said: As of 2025, the 10 states with the highest poverty rates: 1. Mississippi– 19.3% 2.Louisiana–18.6% 3.New Mexico –18.1% 4.West Virginia–17.0% 5.Kentucky–15.9% 6.Arkansas–15.3% 7.Alabama–15.0% 8.Oklahoma– 14.5% 9.Tennessee–13.5% 10. South Carolina–13.5% Who’d they vote for?

Priorities

Finally watched the Joni Ernst videos and… I mean, I…. It’s just infuriating how much they think they can get away with. They truly believe the the voters are so beaten down and so disengaged and so hopeless that they can do That to you, and still draw a salary from your money

Crashing a tank into a normal car is a death-sentence. Can't wait until we regulate these unnecessary fragile ego behemoths. Special licencing, additional infrastructure damage fees, and regulation on size and weight are needed yesterday.

Gee. I wonder why no one informed the security risk in the White House…?

Eliminate the cap and Social Security is fixed.

Today I watched a video in which the Governor of Iowa Jodi Ernst snidely pretend she didn’t understand that cuts to Medicaid would cause people to die. She then sarcastically used Jesus as a human shield for her total lack of morality. She is an evil person who doesn’t care who dies.

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?

Why are so many law enforcement officers wearing masks now? Embarassed?

"If what you're doing is legitimate and lawful, why do you need to cover your face?”

no it’s actually because of the slavery

#cdnpoli I so want this to happen.

The president of the United States is mentally compromised. He’s spreading the conspiracy that Biden was a clone.

Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social, Donald Trump is publicly supporting a conspiracy theory that Joe Biden was actually killed in 2020 and replaced by a robot clone. Just a heads up in case you know of anyone who might be interested in investigating the cognitive deterioration of the commander-in-chief.

Not sure if democracy remains on the docket? My law firm is litigating 53 voting and election cases in 22 states. ⚖️🗳️ When we fight, we win.💪

SecState Rubio claims that no on has died because of USAID cuts and suggested that I had lied in my reporting. So here I show him photos of specific children who have died because of the Trump administration's reckless cancelation of aid: www.nytimes.com/2025/05/31/o...

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. called the lack of healthy food options on Native reservations a “genocide.” But the Trump administration ended a program that helped provide fresh, locally produced food for tribal food banks, saying the program no longer aligned with its priorities.

The lion, the witch and the absolute motherfucking audacity of this lowlife bitch.

Trump is an idiot. Trans/genic/ mice experiments are bedrock medical science. Transgenic mice are indispensable in pre-clinical trials of treatments for virtually every human disease you can think of, including Alzheimers, cancer, diabetes, and strokes.

JUST NOW: CNN’s Pamela Brown shut down Stephen Miller as he spiraled into a full-blown meltdown “STEPHEN THIS IS MY SHOW.” Pamela Brown didn’t just fact-check Miller - she dismantled him. Maybe next time instead of an interview, CNN can arrange an exorcism.

This is so deeply embarrassing. How do these people look at themselves in the mirror?

When your economic policy causes a $6 trillion loss but your tee time waits for no man.

This kind of administrative sloppiness at ICE is *way* too common. Data entries are wrong, required procedures and welfare checks are skipped, and mistakes get made because corners are being cut. It’s happening even more with the White House screaming for ever-higher numbers.

Heed to advice from the CDC not a former heroin addict who takes his grandkids swimming in raw sewage.

As I note here, really zero reason to believe Elon is stepping away from anything. This is all a crisis comms campaign. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/dont-...

The Trump regime has declared that if you criticize Israel or point out they should not mass murder women and children, your visa will be denied. You can however criticize the US and any of its allies, just not Israel.

The corruption here is staggering #Cryptogate

‼️ ⚖️ SCOTUS RULING ⚖️ ‼️ SCOTUS will now allow Trump and ICE to immediately DEPORT Immigrants with “temporary protected status” fleeing from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela. 🧨 This could affect more than 500,000 asylum seekers. ☹️ 💀 PEOPLE WILL DIE 💀 #MakingAmericaWhiteAgain 👨‍✈️ ☠️ 🚔

Oh no! Anyway…

Duffy alone can fix it....or maybe not.
