Sean Duffy: "Dressing with respect -- whether it's a pair of jeans and a decent shirt, I would encourage people to maybe dress a little better which encourages us to maybe behave a little better. Let's try not to wear slippers and pajamas as we come to the airport."

If you think women here can't be forced backwards...

These are women in Parliament in Iran in the mid-1970's.

Their decline feels familiar.

A reaction to women having too many rights.
A fear of what was happening to traditional family.
A desire for younger wives.
A closing of the fist.

Marjorie Taylor Greene wants you to believe sheโ€™s suddenly serious and respectable. But we didnโ€™t imagine the last five years we have receipts. Includingโ€ฆ whatever this was. New script, same actress.

Greene hanging sign saying "There are only two genders, male and female. Trust the science!"

Greene hanging sign saying "There are only two genders, male and female. Trust the science!"

Marjorie Taylor Greene belittled and caused irreparable harm to the LGBTQ+ community.

You can't change unless you take responsibility for things you've said and done that were wrong.

Greene never apologized for her vile behavior.

A real President โ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆ.

Sixty-two years ago today, November 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas. He was shot while riding in an open-top car and died later at Parkland Hospital. The event, which occurred at 12:30 p.m. CST, was a moment of national tragedy.

That Trump / Mamdani press conference was so weird. Donald was so tame, like Zohran was taking a pig for a walk.

It's a good thing President Obama killed Osama Bin Laden because otherwise Trump would be inviting him to the White House for some goddamn hors d'oeuvres

If **Jeffrey Epstein** thinks you're a evil and demented sociopath, the odds are overwhelming that you are, in fact, an evil and demented sociopath.

Thou shalt replace Chuck Schumer with Chris Van Hollen, who personally went to El Salvador to find Kilmar. Thatโ€™s the kind of courage we need right now.

The goddamn nerve of Jeff Bezos' newspaper to talk shit about raising the minimum wage at a moment when workers at Jeff Bezos' online superstore -- who are paid so little half of them in one study were on SNAP benefits -- are going hungry.

The fucking arrogance.
