They pretend that the USA was founded as a Christian nation. Then they pretend and insist they’re Christians. Then they govern like the motherfucking antichrist.

it would be cool if some members of the mainstream media cared as much about this administration lying about who's running the agency dismantling the federal government as they do about the former president’s age

Walz: When did government get to tell you how many dolls your child has? Government just big enough to fit in your bedroom, your womb, and apparently now in your toy chest.

Even if you accept Stephen Miller’s (textually, historically, and morally indefensible) claim that undocumented immigrants are not entitled to due process, you’d still need due process to ensure that the individuals at issue are, in fact, undocumented. His argument fails even on its own terms.

🚨🚨🚨BREAKING NEWS: Was just passed this from a fellow service academy grad. A Coast Guard Academy graduate posted this. They are reporting that ICE entered base housing and took a USCG spouse. I can’t confirm this but I’m calling for answers from the Coast Guard and Congress. This is unacceptable.

Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.

The “but her emails” crowd are now cheering on drunken rapist idiot Pete Hegseth for sending out classified military intel on Signal Chat not once but twice and not just to a reporter but to his wife and brother. He should be in jail, not running the Pentagon.

This "WHO'S NEVER COMING BACK" document published by the White House should be "EXHIBIT A" in any forthcoming hearing where a judge/justice has asked the White House to prove how it is "facilitating" the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

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.

The tariffs are catastrophic. But so too are the abuses of power, so is the corruption, so are the police state tactics, so is the destruction of our health care infrastructure, so are the ways our national security is being endangered, so are the attacks on our core freedoms.

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.

Donald Trump's executive order would make it harder for millions to register to vote, would disenfranchise voters Trump doesn't like, and give power to election deniers to overturn elections they don't win. This is the greatest threat to democracy right now and it must be stopped.
