“These men risked their lives to speak with us. We have a moral and professional obligation to the sources who entrusted us with their
stories. Abandoning them now is a betrayal of the most basic tenet of journalism: giving voice to the voiceless.”
I don’t know who made this, but it’s spot on!!
Happy Chanukah. 🕎
F@ck antisemitism.
Am Yisrael Chai! 🇮🇱
Still in a state of shock trying to process the tragic loss of one of the most gifted men in the entertainment industry & his wife when the Embarrassment-in-Chief disgraces common human decency with this repulsive, deranged statement.
#NoWords 🤮
the people of this great republic yearn for locomotive transport
The US government is now a mafia organization.
All I want for Xmas. 🙏

There has never been a President that has worked as hard as me! My hours are the longest, and my results are among the best. I’ve stopped Eight Wars, saving many millions of lives in the process, created the Greatest Economy in the History of our Country, brought Business back into the United States at levels never seen before, rebuilt our Military, created the Largest Tax Cuts and Regulation Cuts, EVER, closed our open and very dangerous Southern Border, when previous Administrations were unable to do so, and created an “aura” around the United States of America that has led every Country in the World to respect us more than ever before. In addition to all of that, I go out of my way to do long, thorough, and very boring Medical Examinations at the Great Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, seen and supervised by top doctors, all of whom have given me PERFECT Marks — Some have even said they have never seen such Strong Results. I do these Tests because I owe it to our Country. In addition to the Medical, I have done something that no other President has done, on three separate occasions, the last one being recently, by taking what is known as a Cognitive Examination, something which few people would be able to do very well, including those working at The New York Times, and I ACED all three of them in front of large numbers of doctors and experts, most of whom I do not know. I have been told that few people have been able to “ace” this Examination and, in fact,
most do very poorly, which is why many other Presidents have decided not to take it at all. Despite all of this, the time and work involved, The New York Times, and some others, like to pretend that I am “slowing up,” am maybe not as sharp as I once was, or am in poor physical health, knowing that it is not true, and knowing that I work very hard, probably harder than I have ever worked before. I will know when I am “slowing up,” but it’s not now! After all of the work I have done with Medical Exams, Cognitive Exams, and everything else, I actually believe it’s seditious, perhaps even treasonous, for The New York Times, and others, to consistently do FAKE reports in order to libel and demean “THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.” They are true Enemies of the People, and we should do something about it. They have inaccurately reported on all of my Election Results and, in fact, were forced to apologize on much of what they wrote. The best thing that could happen to this Country would be if The New York Times would cease publication because they are a horrible, biased, and untruthful “source” of information. Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.
It is newsworthy that the president of the United States is increasingly verbally abusive of women reporters and he should be asked about it.
WHEN THE HELL ARE THEY GOING TO RELEASE THE COMPLETE, GODDAMN EPSTEIN FILES????? 🤨

Same! But I'm excited the demand was so big. We can (hopefully) expect more 🙏🏼 🖖🏽
Yasss!!! I'm so excited for mine too 🖖🏽
imagine US political culture if Ford hadn't pardoned Nixon, and instead he went to jail

Tonight, we did something everyone counted out. We proved to a nation that states like Tennessee are still worth fighting for. The margin was close, and that can only be attributed to the thousands of volunteers who showed out. This is just the beginning.
State-Level Impact of NOT renewing ACA Subsidies: We also produced economic estimates for each of the 50 states and the District of Columbia, shown in Exhibit 1. Following are some highlights: Losses will be higher in states where more residents are enrolled in an ACA marketplace plan. The 10 states with the most projected jobs lost are: Texas: 83,400 Florida: 57,500 Georgia: 33,600 California: 20,300 South Carolina: 13,100 Tennessee: 12,300 Alabama: 9,100 Louisiana: 7,000 North Carolina: 6,900 Mississippi: 6,700.
NOT extending ACA subsidies will ALSO cause state economies to PLUMMET $41B.
339,100 jobs will be LOST due to health care providers being FORCED to reduce their workforces. 50% of job LOSSES will be health care–related & HIGHER in states where MORE residents are enrolled in an ACA marketplace plan.
Tax the rich like we tax lottery winnings .
Come on, Middle Tennessee. Let's do this thing.
Even the printer knows you're a white supremacist. 🖨️ 😡
Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.
Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.
Do not.
In honor of World AIDS Day, I'd like to share a story that breaks my heart whenever I tell it. Please read it. It's the story of David Carroll.
Vote blue with all YOUR 💙
I miss having a President and First Lady who actually cared about Americans.
We fight on in honor of those we've lost! #WorldAIDSDay
The Hague with her. Immediately.
"We have an utterly lawless administration at home and abroad. Do we just have to live with it for at least three more years?" Well, *someone* could do something. A few hundred folks in the Capitol.
