So he was drunk or lying.

Remember that WTF @davidmcswane.bsky.social story about a Montana doctor linked to a string of suspicious deaths? Well, even though he's now under criminal investigation, the state just renewed his medical license: www.propublica.org/article/thom...

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.

The community note 🤌😘

First of all, he resigned. Second, his life is ruined because he can’t work on a project accessing Americans’ confidential info? If that person can code like his supporters say he ca, he’ll be fine. These entitled white guys mistake rebuke for cancellation. Grow up.

My staff is hearing reports from Head Start programs in Oregon that they're still locked out of federal funds. My office is doing everything it can to get more info and get funds flowing before providers have to start closing their doors.

NEW: I was asked to start compiling a list of companies bending the knee to the Trump regime by ditching their DEI programs. Here you go! www.muellershewrote.com/p/companies-...

HOLD UP. Did Trump just say he will put tariffs on medications? Americans already pay more for prescription medications than anywhere in the world - and he wants us to pay EVEN MORE? Americans want cheaper drug prices. Trump is giving us higher taxes instead.

I missed this entirely: The FAA Administrator criticized Space X’s safety record and threatened fines. Musk demanded he resign. He did. On January 20th. www.thedailybeast.com/faa-chief-mi...

This is the kind of stuff I’d like to see my members of Congress do.

This.👇

Please pay attention to this case being argued in the 4th Circuit tomorrow. It could determine whether the GOP succeeds in stealing a NC Supreme Court seat by disenfranchising 60,000 voters.

I will continue to teach about these heroes, including in my current WW2 class, as was on the syllabus long before Trump tried to suppress these histories.

“The dismissals appeared to violate federal law, which requires Congress to receive 30 days’ notice of any intent to fire a Senate-confirmed inspector general…” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Harris beat Trump 54% to 43% among voters ages 18-24. Harris beat Trump 53% to 45% among voters ages 25-29. Harris beat Trump 51% to 45% among voters ages 30-39. Trump to Fox: “I won youth by 36 points.” www.cnn.com/2025/01/22/p...

The speech from AOC is absolute 🔥 - the assist from Raskin to keep it going is also sublime. #Teamwork

pay. attention. 👏

The Hegseth hearing is doing one thing incredibly well: it’s establishing that when his leadership at DoD fails, it’ll be clear that GOP Senators knew, excused it, and they own it. Serious concerns about experience & judgment are literally being laughed off.

BREAKING: Justice Alito takes call from Trump, right as Trump's lawyers sought stay to stop Trump's criminal sentencing in NYC. Alito claims it was to help a former clerk get a job. Doesn't matter. Federal law requires Alito now be DISQUALIFIED from the Trump stay petition.

Congress should ask Pam Bondi during her confirmation hearings why she failed to bring statutory rape charges against Matt Gaetz.

Trump negotiating in reverse, as if weak and incompetent. He holds all the cards and is determined to give them away to Putin.

Hillary beat Trump by a bigger margin than Trump beat Harris. Why isn’t the corporate media hammering on this point all day every day?

"The menace of Adolf Hitler has been greatly exaggerated.... There is an innocence almost childish about the detailed fashion un which he sets out to be blood-curdling." --New York Times, Sept. 27, 1930

Trump's foreign business conflicts and illegal emoluments haven’t just simply disappeared. They’re still there. If he chooses not to divest before entering the White House next year, they will pose a grave threat to our national security.

Holy moly. MAGA is losing their mind over an uncovered video from 2016 where Donald Trump says people should use the bathroom they feel is inappropriate and speaks out against trans bathroom bills. Feel free to share this so MAGA implodes.

If true, this is disqualifying. Full stop.

Remember this. We are weaker now. “Trump has groomed us.” Try to hold and speak and advocate what you know is right and true. We’ve already moved so far. Don’t change your standards to accommodate their shameless incompetence & cruelty.
