We should all be saluting the Senate Parliamentarian who is defending the rules vs. lawless, rapacious Senate R's. Knocking out a host of reprehensible policy items that do not comply with reconcilliation rules. It is not an easy task. This is what it means to take responsibility for our democracy.

A criminal gang has taken over the White House. It's not a group of "conservative politicians." It's a criminal gang run by a convicted felon. It's breaking laws every day. It's kidnapping people. It's soliciting bribes and extorting businesses. This is not a political story – it's a crime story.

Trump’s absolute incompetence is on full display.

I like this Gavin more than podcast Gavin.

Crickets from all the "states rights" folks

Trump doesn’t need to send in the Marines. I think just one cop would work. And maybe a construction worker. Plus a leather biker guy. And

For some reason, I was just thinking about how Trump’s former chief of staff tried to warn us right before the election that Trump was a fascist who wanted to rule us like a dictator … and the New York Times put that story on page A12

Cannot stress enough that this is a pitiful action by a weak, scared, pathetic group of insecure, wannabe authoritarians, and they should be mocked until the end of time for wanting to bring in the military over some people protesting them at a Home Depot.

If only the New York Times had made this big of a deal in December 2022 when Trump called for “termination” of the Constitution. (That ran on Page 13. Yes, Page 13.)

must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away

Who voted for this?

Feeding the children is far more important than any stupid parade!!!

Sean Duffy be like

this is not true either legally or in a colloquial sense, but an NYT reporter says it like he's telling you the weather.

Stephen Miller, Tom Homan, Kristi Noem and a whole lot of ICE/DHS types is will discover a Strange New Respect for habeas corpus and the rule of law when the 2029 Truth and Reconciliation Commission arrests them for human trafficking, conspiracy, kidnapping, and child abuse.

Voted for Trump but mad at “the government” is exactly how this will all be memory-holed.

It's really important that the new Pope remains apolitical and endorses everything President Trump does.

Maybe democratic leaders need to make it clear now: if you’re a nation that engaged in absolute corruption with the Trump family, you will absolutely pay a price when he is out of office. Our people deserve better

The Onion is once again the only real news source

Accurate…

among the things i would do if i were king of america is outlaw MLMs

Is some reporter eventually gonna ask him about the fact that his entire campaign, literally every word of it, was little more than looking the country in the eye and lying to it.

You literally sound like a communist
