Having served as a Moscow correspondent in the early days of Putin's reign, this reminds me of how the Kremlin took over its own press pool and made sure that only compliant journalists were given access.

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

Everyone has things in their career of which they're ashamed. Nothing...and I mean nothing...in my career in politics makes me more ashamed and regretful than supporting and promoting Marco Rubio. He is the most craven betrayer of his stated ideals of any human I've ever met.

To those in red state Kentucky who voted for the orange felon, he has done literally everything but address your several days of dangerous flooding and has actually denied FEMA aid for other red states like Georgia. You chose cruelty and I hope he delivers what you wanted. FAFO.

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

Not that anyone cares but a bunch of senior doj officials resigning over a corrupt instruction to drop a case was what triggered the Nixon impeachment, and in the Trump era it's just the 2pm scandal of a random Thursday and every day now has ~3 such scandals that would have ended any prior admin

Of course the Democrats will be going to Houston to find and interview voters who were laid off , to ask them what their expectations of the new administration were and how they feel they are doing at the moment. And posting here and everywhere. Right ?

They have added things to doge.gov now after getting creamed for posting nothing. There is no way to verify the claims that they are cutting fraud since there is no documentation. They are simply copying tweets.
