The SAVE act died in the Senate.
As politely as I can, it is hard to overstate how stupid GOP voters are. Anything not GOP is "Marxism and communism" according to them.
I’m sorry for your loss. It also sounds like a power move I would make near the end of my time.
Sorry, I can’t do that right now. I’m busy watching my husband on our doorbell camera trying to coax the neighbor’s cat over for pets.
Starting February 18, 2027, smartphones and many portable devices sold in the EU must have batteries that users can remove and replace more easily. That means #Apple #Samsung #Google #Xiaomi etc may need to redesign future devices to meet the new rules www.business-standard.com/technology/t...
Nicely done. Speaking of the Pope . . .

Perennial statement.
They understand the assignment.
I pronounce the argument that Americans need guns to protect us from a tyrannical government officially dead. Kaput. We're living under a tyrannical government and the only people suffering from gun violence are innocent children and civilians. No one's using them against this government.
This.
The DOJ is now 5 month in breach of releasing the Epstein files.
Holding these criminals accountable should be the Nuremberg of our time.
Virgina folks…
You guys ready for the constitutional amendment referendum special election on Tuesday?
“The United States is being murdered, and it’s an inside job. Every department, every branch, every bureau and function of the federal government is being fatally corrupted or altogether dismantled or disabled.”

Stop buying the claim that Trump is obsessed with 2020; we already have eyewitnesses who say he knows he lost.
What he *is* obsessed with is (a) the narrative of 2020, and *far* more importantly (b) how that election can be leveraged to steal 2026 and 2028 and end our democracy.
I don’t think we talk nearly enough about the fact that corporations like Amazon, don’t pay a single cent to maintain the roads they use, the transportation system they use, the courts they use, they pay nothing for the infrastructure that is absolutely critical to their business.
WE Pay for
Because the Trump administration is nothing but contempt. Contempt for the Constitution, contempt for the rule of law and contempt for the American people.
NEW: The 2016 Supreme Court memos and the mess that John Roberts has made of his court.
The New York Times scoop about the Clean Power Plan case SCOTUS memos highlights the conservative justices' brazen disregard for their own rules — both then and now.

Tapper’s next book: “Why Trump Calling for Genocide is Bad for Biden”
However you've lined up politically in the past, if you're worried about where our country is headed, you belong in this conversation.
Here are my full opening remarks from last night in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Thankful to the people of Oklahoma for such a warm welcome back.
“CBS News’s Jan Crawford reported that neither of the Court’s two oldest members would step down this year. Democrats are treating the reports as smokescreens, choosing to plow forward with a major campaign for the likelihood that a vacancy (or two) will emerge.”

FM of Estonia Tsahkna: Estonia will not permit the use of its airspace by any state that chooses to deepen its ties with Russia.

We must continue to isolate the aggressor politically and economically, maintaining firm pressure until it has fully faced the consequences of its actions.
And resign from the presidency and self-report to Alcatraz.
Death of Blind Refugee Abandoned In Blizzard by Border Patrol Ruled a Homicide

Trickle-down economics is a cruel joke.
I call BS on Kash.
