"It's a complicated situation, rooted in some real problematic things happening between the two countries," - Steve Witkoff on his meetings with Putin. By "problematic things," he means the war Russia started?

Fine words for a man who sold his soul to be appointed secretary of state by a fascist, pro-Russia president.

I like countries which file criminal charges against presidents for leading an insurrection. If only that had been done in the U.S. If only AG Garland had bothered to do his job, American democracy would not be facing its greatest threat in history. www.koreatimes.co.kr/southkorea/l...

Great if this translates to votes against Trump and the cult of MAGA.

An innocent man, picked up by “mistake,” must not be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. Mr. President. Obey the courts. Obey our Constitution. Bring him home immediately.

One man just wiped out $10 trillion in wealth, is destroying centuries-old legal protections, and seems determined to unravel humanity’s greatest public health achievement. In 3 months. I don’t know how we get out of this. But if we do, one person can never have that kind of power again.

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers. Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory. Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

The same people in DC who got us into this mess are not going to be the ones to get us out of it. Today I'm announcing my campaign for U.S. Senate. Because we don't have a minute to wait.

Wow. Just wow. We have already raised over $1m from over 12k people in support of this US Senate campaign. From all 83 counties in Michigan. From every state in the country. Thank you for believing in me and what we can build together. And we are just 👏 getting 👏 started 👏

As someone who grew up in the rural south, it was great to watch @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, the first African-American to lead a party in Congress, discuss @booker.senate.gov's speech, which broke segregationist Strom Thurmond's filibuster record. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ayvb...

Elon Musk spent millions in a failed scheme to buy a Wisconsin Supreme Court seat. Voters decisively rejected Donald Trump, Musk and the rapidly deteriorating Republican brand. Back up off the American people.

One phone call. That’s all it would take to get every innocent person out of that El Salvador jail. Every innocent person wrongly/illegally deported would be returned immediately with one phone call from Trump. Because he’s a coward, he won’t. But one phone call. That’s all.

Thank you Elon Musk. Because of you, Susan Crawford won in Wisconsin tonight. It’s always been the case that nobody gets Democrats out to vote like Trump does. Well, that’s now you Elon. You’ve replaced Trump as the Democrats’ most effective get out the vote weapon. Well done.

@booker.senate.gov beat the record of Strom Thurmond (opposing a civil rights bill) in giving longest single-person Senate speech. Cory Booker spoke for 25 hours and 4 minutes in opposition to the authoritarian rule of the worst president in American history. www.huffpost.com/entry/cory-b...

Trump administration damn sure could rectify this horrifying "administrative error" if they wanted to do so.

I always thought @booker.senate.gov was a good public servant, even before he was elected to the Senate, but I am now a big fan as he continues his filibuster. He is about to beat Strom Thurmond's record of 24 hours & 18 minutes. (I think this would be a new record for a Senate speech.)

Breaking: RFK Jr. has forced out PETER MARKS, the nation’s top vaccine regulator. In his resignation letter, obtained by the Post, Marks said he was willing to work with RFK Jr on his vaccine concerns — but said Kennedy wishes “subservient confirmation of his misinformation and lies.”

Really feel like I’m losing my mind: government OBVIOUSLY cannot punish an individual law firm for hiring someone it disfavors! It’s ludicrously unconstitutional and I feel like without a day of law school I could argue the case. And yet the best paid lawyers in the country are folding?

Meiselas: Steve Witkoff, was allegedly in Moscow while he was on this group chat. Do you believe the Russians now have all of that information and potentially more? Rice: Well, yes—the Russians have whatever Witkoff was doing or saying on his personal cell phone. The Russians undoubtedly have it.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.
