I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

Over 57% of all buildings in Harlan County, KY are at risk of flooding in the coming period because of climate change. So maybe police departments should stop getting assault weapons from the US Army and instead get search and rescue zodiacs from the US Navy. fox56news.com/news/kentuck...

Why does a 38-year old U.S. Attorney in SDNY, who is also a die hard conservative, have more guts and integrity than the entirety of the GOP Senate Conference combined?! Shame on the shameless sycophants and enablers there, who can’t find the spine to stand up to common MAGA bullies.

The Chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, Roger Wicker, says he is disturbed about the "rookie mistake" the Secretary of Defense made at the NATO summit. Maybe the real mistake was made three weeks ago, when Wicker cast the tie-breaking vote to pass Hegseth's name out of committee?

On the occasion of Trump revoking Biden's security clearance, shouldn't reporters ask Trump whether they suspect Biden of illegally taking boxes of classified material from the White House and keeping them in the bathroom of his house? And then asking whether that would be wrong.

I wish whoever is running all these Dem's social media would be sensitive to the fact that we are all being actively traumatized multiple times a day. Tell us what you're doing to combat the coup or don't post anything at all and just work.

Strongly worded tweets, texts, or letters are wasted words of people who did nothing with the power & authority to act when they had the chance. Cowards preserved their place in history by trying to retain personal power instead of protect the people who trusted them to uphold the constitution.
