Spineless Trump sycophant and Putin apologist Marco Rubio terminated U.S. support for restoring Ukraine's energy grid moments after President Zelenskyy was kicked out of the White House. Shameless. Despicable. Cowardly.

Thinking of all those American families, including mine, who sent a loved one to fight in WWII. Many never came back. Today was a vile desecration of their memories and legacies.

Well, y’all, 249 years was a pretty good run. All of those presidents and only one managed to piss off the entire free world. We just went from number one to the bottom of the barrel because two makeup-wearing “alpha” men felt threatened by drag queens. MAGA must be so proud.

Colorado's Rep Brittany Pettersen (D) flew cross-country with her one-month-old to vote against the GOP budget tonight. Dems ended up one vote short. Pettersen was part of an unsuccessful bipartisan push to allow new mothers to vote remotely. #copolitics

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

A quick search of Cotton’s accounts show that the first time he posted a single word critical of USAID was 5 days ago, despite serving in the Senate for 10 years and the House before that.

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out. This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

"We're going to dynamite the US economy because Canada should have given NATO a few more dollars" is so simple-minded. And, BTW, JD Vance famously wrote about his mother's problems with drugs. She didn't get them from Canada. She stole them from her American patients at the hospital she worked at.

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period. I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt. But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Press Sec Leavitt justified the spending pause by saying the US was about to spend "$50M to buy condoms in Gaza." The only source for this I can find is a FNC story, which quotes an anonymous Administration official, who only said it was "millions." www.foxnews.com/politics/sta...

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service. “Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.
