Mark Warner: "That cabinet meeting earlier this week where everyone went around and basically paid kudos to the great leader -- it was something that frankly I would've expected out of North Korea, not out of a cabinet meeting in America."

March 2022, Russia occupies about 30 percent of Ukraine. Today? Less than 20 percent at the cost of over 900k casualties. Tell me again how Russia is winning?!? youtu.be/lvVI64jVXuI?...

When A President Isn’t A Criminal Propped Up By A Corrupt Supreme Court…

“Holy rusted metal, Batman!"

“See you in court.”

We hadn’t won World War II by May 8th. I know because my family and I were still in an internment camp in Tule Lake, California.

I like telling authoritarians where to shove it in multiple languages

Should this happen, the event would be countered by a massive turnout of citizens protesting his birth.

I was among the people interview for this piece. Glad to see 60 Minutes standing behind it.

Here it is. A timetable of 100 days of corruption. Breathtaking. Heartbreaking. We cannot let this stand.

Your kids get a max of two toys and then grow up to work in the same factory as their father and grandfather screwing in tiny screws. It’s called The American Dream.

Important story from the NYT this morning: The President running a crypto operation with largely anonymous offshore investors at a time when he regulates the industry is a huge red flag that you can’t imagine being tolerated by Washington or the public in any other era.

The Attorney General of the United States gushing on camera that the President has saved two-thirds of the entire population of America from dying of a fentanyl overdose was a gut-churning lurch towards the absurd flattery lavished on personality-cult dictators by fawning subordinates.

Kamala Harris has rarely spoken out after leaving Washington in January. In her first major address since then, she acknowledged Democratic fears and warned of a constitutional crisis. Read more: nyti.ms/4cUxR7v

The facts are the facts: their proposed budget is not going to make life easier for 99% of us. I can’t WAIT until the day that Republicans decide to show up and work for the people who elected them.

the jobs of the future, where you will be a hereditary serf producing goods for your betters

It’s a beautiful thing to see people put aside their differences, their politics, and unite in their love of country. Well done, Canada. 🇨🇦 Your citizens stood on guard for thee.

Donald Trump is now so unpopular that he’s losing elections in OTHER countries.

This is your regular reminder that executive orders are not royal decrees. Because America has no king.

This should be the top story in Axios’s morning read. But it isn’t. It’s the FIFTH top story. @axios.com www.axios.com/2025/04/23/t...

NEW: In a news release published Monday, the City of Hyattsville Police Department said: “At no time did any member of the HPD identify or file any reports classifying Abrego Garcia as a member of any gang,” HPD’s statement read. This contradicts DHS' claim. www.dcnewsnow.com/news/local-n...

We have a dictator....right f*cking now. We're not in a "grey area."

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Pete Hegseth did share classified information with wife and brother despite White House’s claims, report says Defense secretary accuses media of trying ‘to slash and burn people and ruin their reputations’ www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Everything is bad except for dogs

In Pope Francis’s last public address, he preached care of the marginalized, the vulnerable, and migrants, saying: “I would like all of us to hope anew and to revive our trust in others, including those who are different than ourselves.” May we heed his wish.

Because when you look around at education in Arkansas, the first thing you think is man, these kids need to learn not to covet their neighbor‘s wife… www.ky3.com/2025/04/19/n...

BREAKING NYT: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared detailed information about forthcoming strikes in Yemen on March 15 in a private Signal group chat that included his wife, brother and personal lawyer, according to four people with knowledge of the chat.

Confirming Hegseth really was insanely reckless.

Ah yes, Mr. Six-Time Bankruptcy is here to lecture actual businesspeople—who correctly understand that tariffs will crush their businesses and raise prices for consumers—that they are the ones bad at business.

“It’s not my fault you couldn’t stop me”

In the darkest times, there is cause for hope. May we find strength in each other and our shared belief that a better world is possible. Wishing everyone celebrating a blessed Easter.

If someone is arguing against due process, just ask them if they believe someone is innocent until proven guilty. It's the same thing.

Van Hollen on Fox News Sunday: "My whole point here is if you deprive one man of his constitutional rights, you threaten the constitutional rights of everybody ... if you threaten the rule of law for one person, you threaten if for everybody in America."

A Friendly Reminder….😊💙

Q: "How do you respond to Governor Newsom?" Sen. Van Hollen: "I think Americans are tired of elected officials or politicians who are all finger to the wind...Anybody who can't stand up for the Constitution and the right of due process doesn't deserve to lead."

Happy Easter from the Antichrist.

"I fought for it once, I'll fight for it again"

We have two Supreme Court Justices—Thomas & Alito—who have come out of the closet about their contempt for the Constitution.

Hey, NBC News -- you might want to look in your headline for the solution to the mystery.

Friendly reminder. In the United States, criminals are entitled to due process. Even if you pay hush money rig an election, steal top secret documents, or incite a mob to overthrow the government; no matter how egregious your crimes, you’re entitled to due process.

Happy 250th Anniversary of Lexington and Concord from the Supreme Court of the United States

The fact that an entire administration and fully 40% of America thinks it’s ok to send people to a concentration camp in the middle of nowhere, without an OUNCE of evidence they committed a crime is INSANE! It’s more shocking and frightening than anything I have seen from my countryman.

Odd that the VP continues to visit several European counties but the coward steadfastly refuses to accept the long standing open invitation from Ukraine to visit that country, talk to the people, hear the truth, & see reality. But he prefers his right-wing social media dystopia.
