BREAKING: Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick has resigned from Congress just before the House Ethics Committee was set to announce sanctions.
She faced allegations of misusing millions in COVID relief funds tied to her family business, along with multiple campaign finance violations.
I feel like it's poorly understood that Trumpism is *explicitly* about Trump and his allies getting to play by their own set of rules literally wherever possible
This is how terrified they are of everyone voting yes.
So they're telling their base to intimidate other voters? Openly?
Pope Leo expressed “his profound hope for dialogue, reconciliation & enduring peace in the region.” He was “deeply saddened to learn of the loss of life & injury caused by the military attack,″ expressed his closeness to the wounded priest, Rev. Gabriel Romanelli & the sent his condolences. #Pinks
Should be disqualifying. Probably won’t be. Don’t elect Republicans.
You're not wrong. The biggest mistake of the Nuremberg tribunal was they did not finish the job and hunt down every last one of the bastards and kill them. This time we have to finish the job permanently.
WHAT IS TRUMP'S LIE TODAY?
a) Straits of Hormuz (SOH) are open

Raw Story: Kevin McCarthy claimed Trump wields more political power than Ronald Reagan and is the most dominant president since Franklin D. Roosevelt.

What kind of person he must be to do something so relentless to his own children. I feel like the fact that this is what happened when she asked for the divorce explains why she wanted it.
This is terrifyingly and profoundly sad.
🧵 A community is grieving in Shreveport, LA. and demanding answers to why Shamar Elkins murdered 8 children, 7 of whom were his and critically injuring his wife and alleged girlfriend. His wife asked for a divorce and he completely lost it!
