If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.
The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”
It’s about control.
Feverishly working on this
Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's son was pulled over by ICE and forced to prove he is an American.
Two options:
1) ICE deliberately targeted him.
2) ICE is stopping all non-White people without any probable cause and forcing them to prove they are citizens.
Hard to say which option is scarier.
1. Jared Kushner's trip to Moscow yesterday was not just unethical; it was illegal.
You cannot accept tens of millions of dollars from foreign governments and simultaneously conduct high-level diplomacy for the federal government.
It says it right in the Constitution.
A reminder to a nation with way too many people untethered to facts and truth: There’s no such thing as “The Department of War.” It doesn’t exist. Only Congress has the power to create and name executive departments & agencies. So it’s still The Department of Defense.
Thanks
Screenshot of a tweet by Melanie D’Arrigo on X.com that reads: “It’s literally the whole reason why we celebrate Thanksgiving.” Beneath it is a Homeland Security tweet saying: “This Thanksgiving, there is no room at the table for invaders.”
The irony is rich.
National Guard troops don't sign up to be used as political pawns. They sign up to serve their country, not needlessly deploy to American cities to pick up garbage. These two soldiers should be alive right now and at home with their families for Thanksgiving. I'm furious.
This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics.
It is the root of our dysfunction.
🔥🔥🔥 A 3 alarm fire for House Republicans following Marjorie Taylor Greene’s announced resignation, courtesy of @punchbowlnews.bsky.social:
A reminder that Trump's "peace plan" for Ukraine came from Russia going back to 2016. From the Mueller Report:
Mark Kelly: "The message he sent a couple days ago was he declared that loyalty to the Constitution is now punishable by death. Those are serious words coming from the president. He's trying to intimidate us. But I'm not going to be intimidated."
Too late. Marco Rubio already spilled the truth. The so called peace plan was Russia’s wish list, not something the US drafted. He’s trying to walk it back but the damage is done.
He’s scrambling.
Just to review, in the last week the President of the United States:
- Refused to condemn the rise of Neo-Nazis in his party
- Tried to block the release of further evidence he sexually abused children
- Encouraged the execution of Congressional Democrats
Those are just factual statements.
The President called for the murder of Congressional Democrats.
Congressional Democrats should call for his immediate removal or resignation.
Congressional Republicans should condemn his statements and call for him to recant them.
It's the very least they should be doing!
Chris Murphy: "This is potentially the biggest scandal in presidential history ... I'm sure they are meeting in the White House right now trying to decide how they can get around complying with the law."
Do you really think a Department of Justice that lies to judges about grand jury indictments is going to be open and honest about the Epstein Files?
I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk?
But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession.
But that's just me
I think about this a lot. His narcissism will be his own downfall.
There are four leaks to plug for Trump: the survivors, Ghislaine Maxwell, the Epstein Estate, and the 1000+ FBI and DoJ employees he locked in a building and forced to remove his name from the files.
Good luck, asshole.
Priorities.
But, in fairness, they never anticipated the American people would be stupid enough to Re-elect a convicted felon, rapist, pedophile, and con man.

Why are you caving. You work for us. Do not throw America under the bus.
