The president's son, who was never involved in this industry before his father became president, should not be getting contracts from the Pentagon. This is absurd corruption that Republicans in congress will say nothing about and do no oversight. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Hmmm … is America a terrorist state. To some it is…
John Cornyn has been in office longer than I’ve been alive.
He’s had 40 years to lower the cost of housing, healthcare, groceries, utilities, and gas.
What’s the hold up?
Tim Walz on DHS officers who shot Minnesotans: "We're gonna bring them back and hold them accountable for what they did"
"The indictment is a grotesque attempt to recast white people as real victims of racism. In the DOJ’s telling, advocates who spent decades dismantling the Klan are its secret benefactors, 'enriching' themselves by secretly creating racism — something in such short supply it can only be generated."
But Hunter Biden…
It's 2 AM. Republicans are pulling an all-nighter to shovel $70 billion at ICE—and can't be bothered to spend a cent to save health care for the millions of Americans who can't afford insurance.
Shame on every one of them. I'm voting NO.
Posted without comment…
AOC: “People are getting denied surgeries, medicines, prescriptions are super expensive — and this administration is responsible for it and rewarding them for it — we have to bring it to a stop”
Democratic Senator Chris Murphy on Donald Trump's war in Iran:
"We shouldn't sugar coat or normalize this degree of gross, unacceptable incompetence being exercised here. We essentially have a talk show host and a couple real estate developers who are in charge of our war strategy."
Spot on!
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.
James Comer is under fire after a memo revealed Republicans are shifting away from traditional hearings on the Epstein Files.
Instead of formal proceedings, the committee is moving to “roundtables”—informal sessions with no authority.
Witnesses are not even required to be under oath.

holy shit this is a helluva ad. this is what i want to see more of from the democrats.
Ossoff: "The financial entanglement, the way UAE money, Emirati money has compromised this WH is astonishing. It may be one of the most significant scandals in US history. Who are Trump's 2 chief negotiators? Kushner & Witkoff. The people doing diplomacy are at the same time on personal business."
The absolute corruption, incompetence, just straight sheer horror of this. Speechless.
Sen. Hassan to RFK Jr: “It appears to me that you are focused on promoting yourself over everyone else — promoting your own theories over actual scientific inquiry — promoting your own unqualified lackeys over qualified doctors & scientists”
ICYMI: The Senate on Wednesday failed for a fifth time to advance a measure that would have opened debate on halting the war in Iran as Republicans continued to block efforts to assert congressional war powers. (from @svetashko.bsky.social)
Ossoff: "When you throw people off their health insurance and drive up their premiums and gut the Medicaid program in order to cut taxes for the wealthiest people in the country, that's also corruption. That's the corruption that's endemic in our political system and predates Trump."

Guys I'm watching the CA governor's debate and don't worry, we're not going to have a Republican governor
PATTY MURRAY: Will you guarantee that gas will go back to $3 before the end of the year?
CHRIS WRIGHT: Nobody can offer guarantees about the future. But we're ending Biden's war on hydrocarbons
MURRAY: Now we depend on oil, and here we are
Still awesome.

HUGE WIN! H.R. 1897 the bill that would have gutted Endangered Species Act protections for threatened and endangered species has been pulled from today’s House floor vote. Your calls and pressure worked. Thank you for speaking up.
Reporter: What do you make of Republicans saying that Virginia—
AOC: Wah wah wah.
We have asked Republicans for 10 years to ban partisan gerrymandering. And for 10 years, Republicans have said no.
What they’re just mad at is that they have been accustomed to a Democratic Party that rolls over.
Ossoff: "I have zero interest in running for president in 2028. I love serving the state of Georgia. Let's keep our eyes on the ball, folks. We need to win decisively in Georgia and every battleground state and every competitive US House district this fall."
Lutnick thinks Canada is a tick feeding off the body of the US economy but it couldn't be further from the truth. We are, in fact, fungus growing on a rotting corpse.
RFK Jr: President Trump has invested more in trying to transition off glyphosate than any other president
HASSAN: When & how did he do that? He signed an order to increase production of it for weapons and herbicide, and he granted immunity to the huge corporation who produces it. You once sued them
PabloReports: What do you make of Stephen Miller and Tom Homan asking for all this money but then refusing to show up to the hearing today?
Frost: That’s what happens when you have a lapdog as speaker.
