the media all helped cover up the biggest story of 2024's campaign - trump's senility and mental health. if you want an explanation for what's happening now in the stock market, the incident where trump seemingly had a stroke on stage and zoned out to music for 40 minutes is a good place to start.

Carney: The system of global trade anchored on the United States.. is over. Our old relationship of steadily deepening integration with the United States is over. The 80 year period when the United States embraced the mantle of economic leadership… is over.

THIS, THIS is why I’m going to reserve my fiercest criticism for Republicans. I don’t have the time or energy to critique a Dem after going down the line of Republican bullshit that looks like this. This is insulting, disgusting betrayal of an oath to serve that he clearly never understood.

The emails obtained by our Committee are damning. Acting Social Security Commissioner Dudek called the Governor of Maine a “petulant child” and then he canceled Social Security contracts with the state in retaliation for getting under Trump's skin. Leland Dudek must resign.

Mahmoud, Rumeysa, Lelo. All for their political speech and activity. Also Rep Omar is the first I’ve seen to demand Rumeysa’s release and I appreciate the leadership. Release all of them.

3.4 million Illinoisans are covered by Medicaid. These are working parents, seniors, and people with disabilities — these are our friends and neighbors. And just like Jessi shared her story today as a home care aide, Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans need to hear from you.

TCE is a chemical that can cause cancer and put holes in babies' hearts. It also ⬆️ risk of Parkinson's. Biden's EPA banned it. Trump's EPA wants to delay that ban, and Republicans in Congress want to repeal the ban. By @fastlerner.bsky.social and me www.propublica.org/article/tce-...

Pete Hegseth is a f*cking liar. This is so clearly classified info he recklessly leaked that could’ve gotten our pilots killed. He needs to resign in disgrace immediately.

Trump changed drone strike rules of engagement to allow more civilian casualties. Under Bush (especially second term) and more so Obama, the move would've been to monitor this target and fire when he was away from civilian structures. Biden was stricter, significantly reducing drone strikes overall.

"Last year, the Social Security Inspector General issued a report showing Social Security has a criminal fraud rate of 0.009%. As a percentage, that's much lower than the 1.4 billion in assets that reportedly went missing on the Tesla balance sheet just last week." - @wyden.senate.gov

Wall Street CEO Frank Bisignano is now testifying in front of the Senate Finance Committee. As a DOGE lackey, he is "dedicated" to finding fraud in the program. Now’s a good time to remind everyone that UNDER 0.00625% of Social Security benefits are erroneous.

🚨Federal Medicaid cuts of $880B per year REPRESENT 29% of state-financed Medicaid spending per resident. For states to maintain Medicaid spending & eligibility at the current levels EACH STATE must come up with the $880B Shortfall. Many states can't & people will SUFFER!🤬 www.kff.org/medicaid/iss...

So, Trump is being found to have broken the law on average once every four days, and MAGA Twitter wants you to believe this is all lawfare from activist judges. There’s really no amount of pretzel logic that is too much for these people.

NEW: At stake is not only whether Black voters in Louisiana have access to fair representation — but also whether the landmark law, already badly weakened over the last decade-plus, can remain an effective tool to block racial discrimination in the redistricting process.

The modest restrictions on gun sales proposed by Dems are supported by overwhelming public majorities. If you're saying Dems should "move right on guns," you are 100% captured by the worldview of RW media.

I've been calling Trump a fascist for nine years because I know a lot about Nazis and clearly saw what was coming. It wasn't a guess. Not sure why Tom can't just tip his hat and say, "yep, they were correct and I underestimated the threat badly."

The terrible CR Budget bill — written by right-wing House Republicans with no input from anybody but themselves — was passed tonight with the support of 10 Democrats. An absolute failure of Democratic leadership. NOBODY in the Senate should have voted for this dangerous bill.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.
