I think it's bad that the country is led by people who haven't had a real problem in their entire lives and couldn't get a regular job due to being too weird

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.

3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie). Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development

Rep. RASKIN: The DOJ tried stopping you from coming today. They sent two armed marshals to your home to intimidate you. Why did you decide to come? Former DOJ pardon attorney: I don’t want to be complicit in the misuse of Justice Department resources to do political favors.

Japanese and Chinese markets are down 8% and 10% respectively. Black Friday in 1929 was -11%. Tomorrow could easily be the worst crash in American history. The worst thing? It’s 100% intentional.

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.

. If you think the world’s just gonna hug it out with the U.S. after he’s gone, you’re dreaming. “Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice…” Well, America’s credit score just dropped to global subprime. .

It is still very weird to me that there are people who were like “nah, he’s not going to do this exact thing he keeps saying he’s going to do that is contained in a 900+ page manifesto that he and his friends have been working on for four years.”

As more & more people wake up, because they (or someone they love) are directly impacted by what’s happening in the USA, there are two phrases I am finding helpful: “You don’t have to admit you were wrong. Just admit that you were lied to.” “Welcome to the resistance” #UnitedWeAreStrong 🤝🇺🇸✊

Trump inherited the most robust economy of any President in the last 60+ years. It took him less than 3 months to destroy it.

The wages of the richest 1% have skyrocketed 182% since 1979. Meanwhile, the wages of the bottom 90% have seen just 44% growth. Trickle down economics was always a hoax.

The richest man in the world spent more money than most of us will see in our lifetimes to lose a state Supreme Court race by 10 points. And the fact his $25 million was a drop in the bucket compared to what he's spent on other elections is exactly why we must overturn Citizens United.

so my favorite dive bar in WI passed up showing tonight’s Bucks game so they could show live poll results. when the election was called for Crawford, the whole bar started chanting, “Fuck El*n”. the bartender pulled out the good stuff and handed out free shots to us all—an absolutely electric nite

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

It would disenfranchise millions. It seeks to restrict what ballots states can count. It purports to give DOGE unspecified powers to review state run voter rolls. No wonder vote suppressors and election deniers from coast to coast lavished it with praise. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

If you think what happened to Rumeysa Ozturk can't happen to you because you're a citizen and she's not, you are sorely mistaken. Ozturk was snatched off the street not for being a national security threat but for having a wrong opinion. If we don't put a stop to this, it's coming for all of us.
