Wow.

Mount Rushmore...with a fifth face? Seriously? A new bill proposes adding Trump to this iconic monument. What's next? A national monument to...his social media posts? Let's talk about the sheer audacity of this. Is this historical revisionism, political theater, or just plain wild?

Kristi Noem incorrectly defined habeas corpus as the president’s right to deport people. Huh? That’s… not even close.

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem told the Senate today that we should suspend habeas corpus. When asked what that meant, she incorrectly called it a president's right "to remove people from this country.” Habeas corpus: a due process right that compels authorities to justify imprisonment before a court.

Millions of Romanians are celebrating tonight nationwide. This is what democracy looks like, despite Russia's insane manipulation campaign and army of influencer-propagandists, the people saw right through the bullshit and made the right call for their future. Romania is undefeated. 🇷🇴🇪🇺

This seems like a pretty big deal, right? Like perhaps an opportunity for more horrible republicans to at least take the side of our country over Trump?

🤣🤣

The DOJ is all in a kerfuffle over James Comey posting (in seashells), 8647. Made me think of the Book of Proverbs: "The wicked flee when none pursueth."

The Trump Administration cannot trample the rule of law to serve the President's political agenda. www.wzzm13.com/article/news...

Amazing how three additional panels can immediately correct the Trump/Lincoln portrait in front of the Dept. of Agriculture HQ’s in D.C. 😂 h/t to whoever made this. Bravo.

1 year ago, we passed a bipartisan FAA reauthorization bill to add air traffic controllers, modernize technology, and replace systems that are unsafe and outdated. The problems at Newark Airport show how important these changes are, but they need to be implemented quickly & Congress must do more.

🤣🤣🤣

Birthright citizenship?

When will voters ever learn that the GOP is not the fiscally responsible party?

On his way home from the Middle East

It's OK to admit you were conned. #DonTheCon

BREAKING: The House GOP just failed to pass their Big Ugly Bill out of the Budget Committee. They're fighting over how many Americans to rip health care and food away from. Keep up the pressure.

If this person sat next to you on a bus or train and started ranting about Bruce Springsteen in this way, you would get up and move to a different seat. In the United States, we have him the nuclear codes.

How Ukraine can win: The drone revolution that’s dismantling Russia’s army Destroying thousands of armored vehicles, Ukrainian drones, mines and artillery are steadily depriving Russia of the mobility its forces need for major advances in Ukraine. This is one way Russia loses — and Ukraine wins.

THIS is what we should pay more attention to than trump’s stupid ratings in the Middle East.

OMG, WTF is this??

Always telling on himself.

Don’t forget, Chauvin’s state crimes can’t be pardoned - and that’s the longer of the two sentences. Also don’t forget the people who support that murderer.

Aaaand there it is.

Paul: They started out at 145% got down to 80% now 30%. It is 30% more than we have on currently. It will be a 30% rise in goods coming from China, and somebody will pay that, it will be the consumer.

The fact that the attorney general's last job before this one was lobbying for the Qataris is a little on the nose.

We will stop at nothing to save Medicaid. Join Congresswoman Kelly Morrison and I tonight to breakdown the latest on House Republicans’ plan to gut Medicaid and—more importantly—how the Democratic Doctors Caucus is fighting back. See you at 6pm PT/9pm ET tonight on Instagram Live!

Putting a FedEx executive in charge of its competitor, the Postal Service, is exactly the kind of corrupt move we’ve come to expect from this Administration. I was glad DeJoy left, but this guy seems hand-picked to gut USPS.

This video is making the rounds again for a reason. A great example of how you make your voices heard—without saying a word. Power in numbers and it sends a clear message. This is what democracy looks like: standing up to fascism, tyranny, and racism. This is the way!

Rep. Menendez: "They had over 20 armed ICE HSI officers, they were heavily armed, their faces were covered, and they wearing no identification. So this is who they chose to have come engage with the mayor of Newark and 3 elected members of the House of Representatives."
