Folks don’t miss a beat 😂

This is the worst political messaging since “they’re eating the dogs.” The corporate media is gaslighting us when they say that Dems messaging is bad and Republican messaging is good. Stop believing them. Especially if you’re a Democrat. Just stop it.

GOP Sen. Joni Ernst responds to voters saying that cutting Medicaid will kill them: “Well, we all are going to die.”

Real Presidential Leadership focuses on the majority.......not the financial elite.......

Hanna says dismissing trespassing charge v mayor “for the sake of moving forward.” That’s a good one. As I said at the time, he was invited in then arrested outside the property. It was 100% overkill & cd never stick Now going after Congresswoman. This will fail too. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/19/n...

Statement from the NJAG Matt Platkin

"Political fairy smut" is a keeper

NYT: “.. The United States is the only country .. that is forecast to see an international visitor decline in 2025.” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/05/13/t...

Just FYI because evidently Fox or OAN or whatever is pushing the lie that America accepted the Statue of Liberty and that’s equivalent to the plane. Congress VOTED to approve receiving the statue. So congress should vote on the jet

It's tough to refer to someone as a criminal if you've given them no due process to determine whether they're a criminal. Like if you get arrested and get a trial and are convicted of 34 felony counts. That's due process. You can call that guy a criminal.

Walz: When did government get to tell you how many dolls your child has? Government just big enough to fit in your bedroom, your womb, and apparently now in your toy chest.

Remember when we said that what Signalgate is REALLY about is ensuring American pilots don't get shot down because attack plans are shared in non-secure Signal chats? Now not one but TWO F/A-18s have been lost over the Red Sea. Where is Pete Hegseth? And what is he texting?

Chicago is on to something.

When you realize the tacky Versailles-wannabe trash on the fireplace is just Chinese polyurethane spray painted gold.

Cognitive decline. And we all know who I’m talking about

Some expected. Some surprises. www.newsweek.com/donald-trump...

Given that most, if not all MAGA merch is made in China, I'll be really curious to see what happens to their pricing and availability 😁

The VA has abruptly ended the only low-interest, affordable loan modification option for thousands of vets who are behind on their mortgages. If you're a vet at risk of foreclosure, we want to hear your story.

Krishnamoorthi: Well, look—you’ve heard of artificial intelligence. I think what you see right now in the White House is just natural stupidity.

The proposed Trump budget is brutal, unless you’re the military or Homeland Security. Here’s what gets cut: - State Department: -84% - National Science Foundation: -56% - EPA: -54% - HUD (housing): -44% - Labor: -35% - Interior: -30% - Health & Human Services: -26% - NASA: -24% - Education: -15%

This isn't hypothetical. The coming days are bringing higher prices and disrupted supply chains, this time not because of a pandemic or a war, but self-inflicted by our country's government under this president.

you can say 'Merry Christmas' again. you just can't have any presents

The protests will be far bigger apnews.com/article/army...

Socialism is what they called public power.  Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

The people of TX-30 elected me to speak up and speak out for them — and that’s exactly what I’ll continue to do.

This deserves some good coverage: tariffs giving “cover” for other price hikes that are unrelated to trade.

‘Kennedy told reporters that there were "many, many good ways to treat measles and doctors need to know that and to know those methods.’ One problem; there is no treatment for measles. Signed, a doctor who’s been forced to deal with measles because of this stupid fraud.

We've been saying it since day 1: presidents are not, and never will be, kings.

Dr. Anthony Fauci urges Americans not to accept "Normalization of Untruths".

Dear ICE Agents: When your parents told you that you could be anything you want when you grow up, they didn’t mean masked kidnappers.

“This is taxpayer-funded, state-sponsored religious indoctrination. You’ve just got to call it what it is.”

Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978? 100%? 500%? Try 1,085% Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

U.S. Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) warned that the danger Trump presents to democracy isn’t looming. It’s unfolding in real time. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Good news: CLIMATE COUNTEROFFENSIVE California, Illinois, New York, and Washington signed a climate compact to maintain emission goals abandoned by the federal government. “If D.C. won’t lead, we will,” said Gov. Ana Zhou of Illinois. Thank you.🌎

Kamala Harris: The courage of Americans who are speaking out to say, it is not ok to violate court orders. Saying it is not ok to detain and disappear American citizens or anyone without due process. The courage of judges to uphold the rule of law in the face of those who would jail them.

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.

See. He forced a vote. But he doesn’t have the numbers. Math.
