Is there a reason Dems continue to attack Dems rather than capitalize on the fact that Republicans are getting squirrely about DOGE? Don't want to attack the richest man in the world when he's down?

There’s a certain calm and professional “presidential tone” that remains fairly constant in official documents throughout the decades, and then you get to Trump and it reads like someone scrawled it out on a bathroom stall.

Just fyi, 29 states have filial responsibility laws. So if Elon cuts/kills Social Security or mom's nursing home closes (Medicaid cuts will force many to close EVEN for those who pay full sticker), you're legally required to support them. Surely this will be easy for you! And great for the economy!

Republicans wanted Trump to run the country like his businesses, and he is — running it into the ground with corruption, fraud, and backroom deals that exploit and harm workers. You can’t damage a country this bad in such a short amount of time by accident. This is on purpose.

The weakest, most pathetic thing. Imagine becoming one of the only 535 people out of over 260,000,000 US adults with the Constitutional authority to craft the federal budget—which many aspire to their whole lives—then begging an unelected official to "let" you have a say in the federal budget.

My congressman Rep. Tom Suozzi voted to censure Rep. Al Green. The problem with Dem centrists is that they are firmly entrenched on the political Right. They will never be part of the solution while continually aiding and abetting the Republicans creating the problems. Truly cowardly.

Time to spam every Democratic federal official with Letter from a Birmingham Jail. They are the white moderates who obstruct progress, who prefer a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice.

Republicans can’t pass Trump’s agenda without cutting Medicare or Medicaid —but cutting both is actually part of his Project 2025 agenda. All so they can give more tax breaks to billionaires and millionaires like themselves. This is the Trump oligarchy.

Jeffries & Schumer have made clear they are onboard with the Trump–Musk agenda, which is also why they're pushing Dem members to save Republicans from themselves when they can't pass a budget. Leadership's goal is for Dems to endorse the unconstitutional closure of agencies and impoundment of funds.

Now that Trump has begun cutting Europe (especially Ukraine) off from intelligence sharing, Europe can dedicate far more energy to figuring out how Russia got Trump to capitulate. Since all his OTHER bribery is in plain sight, I suspect any RU bribery is lurking just below the surface.
