What has corrupted Marco Rubio’s ethics and conscience? Is his lust for power and Trump approval so craven that he trashes the constitution and federal judges?

The mayhem at home in the US should not make us take our eyes off the decimation of Democratic Ukraine and the abandonment of our western allies.

Autism is not a disease.

The president of the United States and the president of El Salvador have conspired to kidnap a man and hold him hostage in an El Salvador prison. This criminality ignores the rule of law and thumbs its nose at a Supreme Court ruling to facilitate his return.

thank you 60 minutes for keeping the invasion of Ukraine on the front burner. The Ropublican about face on supporting Ukraine is disgusting.

Where is our humanity?

Some good news-Federal judge orders return of Kilmer Abrego-Garcia who Trump admin mistakenly sent to notorious El Salvador jail. They have until April 7th. Garcia came to the U.S. from El Salvador in 2011 to flee gang violence. He does not have a criminal record in the U.S. or El Salvador.

This is what you call two different readouts of the same meeting. Go Denmark, Go Greenland!

Interesting that Chief Justice Roberts is quick to state the process for correcting a judge but is crickets for stating the legal process for incarceration of immigrants. What have we become?

Reading "Careless People" right now. Highly recommend!! 🤓📚

Thank you William Keating from Massachusetts for doing what's right and decent. Kudos to Sarah McBride from Delaware for handling yourself with class and humor when that imbecile chair introduced you as Mr.

Attention Americans: You must see this video and share it with friends and family! We are being led by a fool, a traitor & an autocrat. Attention Democratic lawmakers: This needs to be your messaging as well! My favorite line: "In American history, the defenders of freedom have always prevailed!"

Transgenders exist and have existed for centuries. They just want to be who they are. They deserve recognition and respect. What’s so hard about that?

We can push back on principle and make arguments based on reason and the Constitution rather than being obnoxious or hateful towards each other. www.sacbee.com/opinion/arti...

The top 1 percent of income has grown nearly 5 times (4.47 times) more than the middle 60 percent of Americans since the 1970s. Massive income inequality hurts ordinary Americans.

My Drain the Swamp Act would outlaw the lobbying of White House officials and ban them from becoming lobbyists for two years after a president's term. Let's send this bill to Trump's desk.

love this @rokhanna.bsky.social We need more proposals like this that co-opt the chaos Please share off line as well !!!

interesting what JD Vance considers diplomacy. Yelling and scolding a guest and unleashing & prodding the Bully Trump. Ukrainians can be proud of the demeanor of their leader. I am ashamed of ours.

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

@sanders.senate.gov keep up the action but get off X

WTF?? His soullessness knows no bottom. Wasting $200M of tax payers money to stroke his ego with ads?? How is this helpful?

It is remarkable that the only Republican senators to vote against Patel were females, the braver more ethical gender.

Why are any news agencies showing up at the WH if AP is banned? Where is the back bone and solidarity to free speech? Where are the Republicans who back Ukraine? Has everyone gone to the mattresses?

We are going to abandon Ukraine, I am ashamed.

I trust Pete Buttigieg who do you trust?
