Giving aid to the enemy?

DNC HQ reported that Representative Pramila Jayapal reintroduced the We the People Amendment to reverse the Citizens United decision and stop corporations from controlling politics. Thanks Rep. Jayapal. This is critical to fix our democracy!

Seeing more news like this from WSJ and others. Trump voters may be embarrassed but should not be. I know from professional experience that grifters are VERY good at their jobs as they need to make a living from it. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

French President Macron meeting with leaders on Ukraine right now! Shows how how Trump’s lies and reneging on allies make America Weak as other nations fill the vacuum he leaves. If you agree, call your Senator and House rep to tell them.

This action alone could result in more illness and death. According to the USPS, 4 free kits per home are still available. faq.usps.com/s/article/At...

The sponsors of this hearing and report on this violence are acting like POWs. Maybe they too need our help?

Why would Mr. Gebbia want to work with Musk on DOGE? Does he need to tap into Musk cash as Genbia is only the 386th richest person in the world? Oligarchs…don’t they ever have enough? Hotels will work for me.

Maybe. Wondering about Susie Wiles, WH COS. She took the job ON CONDITION that “The clown car can’t come into the White House at will” as her, Bannon, and Miller know he is influenced most by who he talks to last. She also said working for DeSantis was the worse job ever. What does she think now?

Bizarre world. Dems should be in blocking mode as much as possible. Reasonable bipartisan voting requires BOTH sides to want the best for the country…which is not the case with MAGA Oligarchy.

TOMORROW: Let’s talk about how we can take action against Trump’s illegal power grab. We’re teaming up with @moveon.org and @workingfamilies.org for a conversation on fighting back. RSVP now: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

So while Presidents Petro and Trump fight using migrants as human weapons, the cost of gas and bananas will go up and corn farmers will lose money on corn sales to our 2nd biggest buyer, Columbia. apnews.com/article/colo...

Graham says Trump broke the law and ‘should have’ told Congress before trying to fire Inspector Generals. How should the House respond when the President breaks the law @budzinski.house.gov ? Impeach.

USAToday / Gannett owns the local newspaper. I’ve noticed today they are both producing and selling a commemorative book on “Trump’s historic second term.” It is not a paid ad. Seems like a conflict for independent journalism. Do I continue supporting local journalism or cancel?

Impeachment

Feel free to hang out

Truth and ethics, which Bondi lacks, is critical for the AG job. In addition to the Senator's info, she also accepted a $25,000 donation from TRUMP Foundation while considering legal action against TRUMP University. She also spread false claims of election fraud. She is NOT QUALIFIED Senators!

Wrong prescription. Ask your Senator for a second opinion.

Mr. Hypocrite today also completely removed the brave Ohio Republican Mike Turner from the House Intelligence Committee that he was the head of as requested by the Felon. The formation of the criminal oligarchy will be stopped by brave politicians like this who are supported by their constituents.

Good catch & it needs to be REPEATED! Trump's Project 2025 will eliminate the term "Climate Change" from U.S. Government agencies & breakup NOAA as a "climate alarmist." Thanks for making everyone aware of this as there is still much to do to prevent the results from getting even worse.

This needs to be covered and investigated more, not normalized! Keep the pressure on the felons.

AGREED. Watching on PBS Russ is being questioned now. Right now he is refusing to answer many questions. He is very secretive. How can anyone have a good feeling about this guy.

Journalism is critical for us to choose & oversee public officials. To keep it & good government alive, we all must tell our Senators to vote against Kash Patel for FBI Director. He has threatened journalists with jail. He also wants the FBI closed which will increase crime.

It's more accurate, cheaper, & easier to use a free online IRS tool than paper or other alternatives. I don't know why 30 Republicans, including Darin LaHood, have asked Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy, (and Donald Trump), for it to be stop it on Day 1 ??? chicago.suntimes.com/taxes/2025/0...

Russ Vought cannot be approved for OMB Director by Senate committee's this week. OMB is not primary reason for his nomination. It is to dismantle the government. He is a principal writer of Project 2025 and secret unpublished P25 action documents. See interview with Russ. youtu.be/PY_chqyaRHo?...

Russ Vought’s track record of brinkmanship and economic risk makes him unfit to lead America’s budget. His work on Project 2025 will consolidate unchecked power and dismantle democracy. His lack of transparency proves he’s the wrong choice for OMB. Reject this nominee! #PeoplePowerUnited #NoOnVought

Good thing the Supreme Court wrote their code of conduct last year so they would have something to refer to when given political requests by politicians.

Excellent point. People gotta ask themselves why they watch the dumpster fire.

Sounds like it's the classic Trump distraction strategy - "No... look over here at what I'm thinking about maybe doing now"

Tell your Congressional representatives that regardless of the electoral vote count, they cannot certify Donald Trump as the winner of the Presidential election on Jan. 6 as Amendment 14 of the Constitution prohibits insurrectionists from holding office. www.newsweek.com/donald-trump...

The conservative template is to put education in the hands of parents. But there is a reason education with a science-based curriculum is required. Mom and dad might be great people but are not qualified. Neither am I. But some people are. Rely on them. www.propublica.org/article/ariz...

Jimmy Carter said in 1979, “…there is a growing disrespect for government, news media…a warning as the “gap between our citizens and our government has never been so wide.” His energy self-sufficiency project would be “the immediate test of our ability to unite this nation”
