Tom Homan asks "where is the line of impeedment?" I'm not sure what he's trying to say, but I'm certain that AOC telling people what their rights are does not meet the standard of criminal impeedyness necessary to open an investigation.

👀 DOJ acknowledges making two significant errors during a court hearing last week on efforts to dismantle USAID 1) It said only 500 employees had been placed on leave. Actual number was 2,140. 2) Said only future contracts were stopped. Existing contracts were also stopped.

I was at the National Archives in November & took this photo of my favorite inscription, showing the relationship btwn studying our past & our pursuit of democratic institutions. The illegal GOP destruction of our public resources & institutions relies on the suppression/erasure of our shared past.

From time to time, history has produced mediocre, immoral, vain, and anti-social men who seek to punish the world as payback for being shunned socially. We are presently being held hostage by one such unpleasant man right now.

Having served with many career civil and foreign service employees, I am comfortable stating with conviction that these dedicated, non-partisan public servants are the essential backbone of our society. What Trump is doing is a gift to our adversaries and catastrophic to a functioning government.

Trump to Democratic Rep. Brad Sherman, who earlier spoke up to him: "Brad, we're the party of common sense. You're not, in all fairness. We like water to put out fires. It's really quite efficient."

Dear price of eggs Trump voters, Not only aren’t they any cheaper, there’s an actual shortage because of the raging Bird Flu we’re not getting any public information about because the food safety & public health agencies responsible for that shit have basically been shut down. Bravo.

Fucking HILARIOUS that these hypocritical Christian Senators have so much forgiveness in their souls for Pete Hegseth abusing women and cheating on his wives but they couldn't find any grace for private citizen Hunter Biden, who isn't running for anything. Give me a fucking break.

Biden: "I want to warn the country of some things that give me great concern. That's the dangerous concentration of power in the hands of a very few ultra wealthy people and the dangerous consequences if their abuse of power is left unchecked. Today, an oligarchy is taking shape"

Even after Donald’s two impeachments, his disastrous handling of Covid, and his Jan 6 insurrection, the Press never owned up to their failings. Then they spent the last four years attacking Biden and Harris, helping tilt last month’s election for maga. We’re looking at you, CNN.

When there are school shootings, Republicans say, “Now’s not the time to talk about gun safety—lives were just lost.” When blue states face disasters, including thousands of people losing homes to devastating fires, Trump wastes no time slamming them, driven purely by spite! Must watch…

What is there left to say about the mass murder of our children that hasn’t already been said? We know the solution. We know the obstacles. And not enough changes to prevent the next mass shooting. But at least CEOs are getting free therapy & security & terror charges against peaceful detractors.😐

Conservatives are now testing a new defense of the health care insurance industry by saying all of this is Obamacare’s fault. Definitely hurt my brain recording this response.

Trump’s going to try and gut Obamacare (the ACA) again, but he’ll soon realize there’s one thing the left and right agree on—they want the Affordable Care Act to stay! The right is about to find out: we ALL want better healthcare and are tired of feeling played.

So when we remove birthright citizenship can we go by the mother? Because: Don Jr was born in 1977 Ivanka was born in 1981 Eric was born in 1984 Ivana became a US citizen in 1988. Barron was born in March 2006 Melania became a US citizen in July 2006. Trump’s entire family would be deported.
