Don’t let them forget it. No peace for them.

There were howls of protest and denial from the GOP any time we pointed out that Republicans want to cut Social Security.

Now the most powerful official in the White House goes on TV and calls it "the big one to eliminate."

In remarks to reporters Tuesday and in a social media post on Wednesday, Trump made numerous false claims about Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and the Russian war on Ukraine – some of which echoed inaccurate talking points from Vladimir Putin.

Here is a fact check of some of his assertions.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Not exaggerating when I say I would like a personal, handwritten apology from every pundit who barfed out a dozen "the left wants to change the way you talk!" op-eds based on non-mandatory guidelines in obscure PDFs.

Which bagels are the good bagels? Have you joined team Hey Bagel or do you have another preference? Does your preference have vegan cream cheese available?

Just now, I voted NO on a procedural step to advance Russ Vought's nomination to manage our nation's budget.

In light of the illegal spending freeze orchestrated by Vought himself and the Trump administration's recent lawlessness, every Senator should vote NO.

This is information that we all paid for with our tax money. It belongs to us, and they’re trying to destroy it.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO
