I will never understand how a billionaire, the richest man on Earth, spent millions to buy an election for ANOTHER billionaire, and told us that his policies would cause all of us non-billionaires “temporary hardship...” ...and the public didn't tell BOTH OF THEM to fuck off.

Hi friends! I just wanted to give a quick update on The Onion’s purchase of InfoWars, which we can’t wait to relaunch as the dumbest website on the internet. The long and short of it: We won the auction and — you're not going to believe this — the previous InfoWars folks aren't taking it well.

Prediction: Gaetz will withdraw his name from consideration & blame it on a Democratic witch hunt (unless Trump makes good on his recess appt threat, but that would require the Senate to go out of session). When he does, remember that even the GOP couldn't stomach Gaetz as AG. x.com/JulieNBCNews...

Yesterday, I headed to DC to celebrate the unveiling of Justice Sotomayor's portrait at the Supreme Court. So proud that this gorgeous portrait, which reflects the boss so well, will now hang in the high court--the first portrait of a woman of color to grace its walls.

I don't want to sound alarmist or anything, but I'm not sure it's a good idea to skip FBI background checks and bury congressional ethics reports about nominees to the most important posts in the federal government.

When Obama nominated Tom Daschle -- a congressional leader with three decades of experience working on federal health care policies -- to be HHS secretary, the senator had to withdraw because a donor provided him with a car. If only he'd beheaded a whale! www.theguardian.com/world/2009/f...

For years now, the right has been accusing Democrats of running a shadowy conspiracy to protect politicians who are sex predators. Democrats need to scream "WHAT ARE THEY HIDING?" until they force the report's release.

Had lots of folks ask, so here’s the plan: I’m hoping tonight will be my last AMA on Twitter. I’m going to announce it that way with the goal of driving as much traffic as possible away from Elon. Starting next week, AMAs will be here as long as this platform works well for them!

I have two questions for Mike Johnson about the report on Matt Gaetz. If he's not a child raper, why are you hiding it? If he is a child rapaer, why are you hiding it?

Morning, friends. It's becoming clearer by the day: Trump plans to destroy governmental institutions by appointing unqualified, incompetent, dangerous agency heads. Hey Senate, YOU have a DUTY to protect the American people. Don't check your spines at the chamber doors. Don't feed the dictator!

At this point it almost doesn’t matter if the House Ethics Committee report on Matt Gaetz is released Although it certainly should be Because the most salacious details are probably going to come out anyway And-if the GOP has any decency left Big if They’ll reject him apple.news/AreP7ovrpRp2...
