This hits hard… “Then she was fired by a Fox News weekend host.” You know what else hits hard? The fact that voters thought it was a good idea to hire a reality show host/bankrupt businessman as President of the United States.

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.

Trump's AG nominee withdrew due to charges he was a sexual predator, while Trump's DoD nominee may survive charges that he was a sexual predator, as we learn multiple House Republicans texted a 1/6 witness asking for "sexual favors" and, uh, maybe Dems could draw a bright line around all this?

Remember how Elon Musk said the biggest scandal in internet history was a government occasionally _asking_ platforms to curb deadly disinformation? So where’s his outcry—or anyone’s—over a top Trump aide, Stephen Miller, _summoning_ Zuckerberg to _dictate_ new Meta policies in lieu of _prosecution_?

New Marist poll: Trump starts with a net-negative favorability rating, 44% favorable, 49% unfavorable. This destroys the idea Trump has a mandate. Wish Democratic leaders would see these polls and realize Trump is not popular. Stop talking common ground and start fighting!

So when we remove birthright citizenship can we go by the mother? Because: Don Jr was born in 1977 Ivanka was born in 1981 Eric was born in 1984 Ivana became a US citizen in 1988. Barron was born in March 2006 Melania became a US citizen in July 2006. Trump’s entire family would be deported.

A bunch of billionaires who have never served a day in our military, are going to make themselves richer by gutting healthcare for our veterans. The next time I hear ANY Trump voter say they “support our troops”, I’m going to remind them that THIS is what they voted for. 👇
