This will be a VERY LONG and ongoing thread focused entirely on empirical evidence. 🧵

Senator Duckworth let Pete know how offended by him she is. 🔥

Wild how the Fed chair saying that *entire regions of the United States* won’t be able to get a mortgage in the next decade barely registered as a news event

They've got enough money to throw us into another war, but not enough money to fund the suicide prevention hotline. Very "pro-life." Very "pro-family." So "GREAT."

every day i think they can’t get any worse. every day i’m wrong.

Six House Rs, many from vulnerable districts, sent a letter to ICE explicitly saying deporting non-criminals makes us less safe.
