Chris Murphy: "Why did Trump choose these 3 countries to go for his first major foreign trip? It's not because these are our most important allies or the most important countries in the world. It's because these are the 3 countries willing to pay him off ... this is the definition of corruption."

Do you know what kind of countries control prices, Donald Trump? Communist countries! You are taxing the American people with your tariffs after EVERYONE said it was a terrible idea and now you want corporations to absorb the cost? That makes you a commie!

He’s a liar just like the rest of them. Kehoe ran as a “moderate.” He’s actually an extremist who doesn’t think working Missourians deserve $13.75/hour or earned sick time…even when the voters approved both.

I don’t want to read about a former President’s mental decline because a journalist got a book deal. I want to read a report about the current President’s mental decline by a journalist brave enough to speak out now.

What’s this bullshit controversy over 86 47? I recall 86 to mean something along the lines of dump, get rid of, trash, discard. If that what was even meant. How is that a threat? What’s the difference with say impeach 47, remove Gabbard, sack Bondi. The MAGA outrage machine is pretty absurd.

Putin suggested holding direct negotiations in Turkey on May 15. President Zelenskyy with his team arrived in Turkey. Putin is absent. Instead, he sent a non-representative delegation with no decision-making mandate. Does Putin want to achieve peace and stop the war? The answer is obvious - no

I come from the right. I get it. The left pushed too hard on certain culture war issues. And the right spread fear/lied (“thousands of “men” competing in women’s sports!”). So we got Trumpism, an ugly/cruel overreaction. But Dems must fight the GOP on these issues. Bcuz most Americans are with Dems.

It is completely insane that yet another politician who claims to care about freedom & “limited government” just banned lab-grown meat so he can do his friends in the beef industry a favor. That’s the epitome of cronyism, and it’s corrupt.

Unless something changes, "Republicans appear unable to muster the support necessary to push what President Trump has called his ‘big beautiful bill’ over its next hurdle." Keep the calls and emails coming. Let them feel the public's animosity to this awful bill. www.rawstory.com/trump-agenda...

Murphy: "There's no guarantee that we are gonna have a free and fair election in 2026. He's trying to rig our democracy, to destroy dissent, to cripple the opposition, so that even if his approval ratings are in the 30s next year, there isn't the ability for his opposition to muster a real campaign"

Accepting a private jumbo-jet from a foreign nation is a clear violation of our Constitution, which plainly prohibits U.S. officials from accepting gifts from foreign governments.

So House Republicans are fighting about the Medicaid cuts in the tax bill for the rich - not because it kicks nearly 9 million people off Medicaid - but because it doesn't kick enough people off Medicaid. Vote accordingly.
