As always I count on you to sort out fact from fiction. Thank you.

Oh I hate when that happens. Listen to your body and fuck that. Hoping your pain improves.
Right now, in the middle of Trump's war with Iran, Senate Republicans are keeping us here all night to vote on the most pressing issue they can think of:
Giving $70 BILLION more to ICE and CBP.
I'm going to fight them every step of the way.
I hate that fucker more every day that passes. Why can’t the worm finish him off.
They paused Oversight Committee hearings the minute we started getting answers about the Epstein files.
Now it’s “roundtables”: no rules, no oaths, no subpoenas.
You do the math. Because the moment accountability shows up, they shut it down. The survivors deserve better.
MAHA
HAHAHA! That response killed me. And it's so damn true.
1. Trump has weaponized the FCC to control the media under his autocratic rule. Now, FCC Chairman Brendan Carr is turning the agency towards his next target: transgender characters in TV shows.
He seeks to change the rating system to penalize trans characters.

This is your periodic reminder that Democrats introduced legislation in 2021 to ban gerrymandering nationwide and every republican voted against it except two who were absent.
Republicans are bringing up past Democratic statements decrying gerrymandering, as though we weren’t aware of this.
Of course we are. We tried making the argument in good faith. Y’all didn’t listen.
We’re supposed to not fight back now?
Nah, doesn’t work like that.
NEW: Rep Krishnamoorthi is demanding Todd Blanche hand over communications between DOJ and Ghislaine Maxwell about a pardon. Maxwell's lawyer has said he thinks Trump will give her one. Right now, Maxwell's holding a lot of cards. krishnamoorthi.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

Trump’s math doesn’t math.
This was one of the longest list of broken norms so far. There is so much important stuff happening beyond Trump's Iran War. Our federal agencies are in disarray, and corruption is running rampant. Catch up on all you missed!

TODAY: Trump's indefinite ceasefire on TACO Tuesday, Donald's dwindling approval rating, and an EU court finds Hungary’s anti-LGBTQ+ law is discriminatory. Free to listen and subscribe: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...
So not only is Trump’s DOJ not going after right wing extremists, they’re going after those who work to expose them.

Wow — Sara Eisen of @CNBC adopts Trump’s framing that it’s somehow political to ask a nominee who won the 2020 election. Total capitulation.
She is retiring, she doesn't have to do this. This is another example showing Republicans aren't "afraid" of Trump, they ARE Trump. The entire party is nothing but little Trumps jockeying to be the next big Trump. It's the fascist GOP that's the problem, not just Trump.

When @MarshaBlackburn talks about Trump cutting taxes, this is what she counts on us all being too dumb to understand
Speaker Sexton confirmed to us today this bill from Slater & @SenJohnson also RAISES the minimum voucher income for — the half of vouchers that have a limit — by double the amount
Again: @GovBillLee’s vouchers are coupons for the wealthy, not helping the underprivileged
If FBI going to say when it pays informants that it is actually supporting criminal activity? I doubt it.
Texas can require public schools to display Ten Commandments in classrooms, US appeals court rules A federal appeals court rules that Texas can require the Ten Commandments to be displayed in public school classrooms, allowing posters of the religious doctrine to go up throughout the state
So public schools can’t have a book assigned in class about LGBTQ people but apparently can be required to teach Christianity.
Tennessee first please
Someone please try and do that. From any state. I just need the entertainment.
Where was this energy when Tennessee Republicans stole Nashville’s seat, coach? Or when Republicans did it in Texas?
Between this and the weird West Bank “Judea and Samaria” you came here to push you continue to show your true colors - and they ain’t pretty.
This is what happens in a corrupt country. The laws are reinterpreted to go after the political opponents. We need to do a clean sweep once we get the GOP out of power.
IMPEACH, CONVICT, REMOVE, IMPRISON.
