No Senator has an obligation to vote for a budget that pays the bills for the destruction of our democracy or throws millions off their health care.
This is a moment for Democrats in Congress to draw a moral line in the sand.

I said this a week after the election and have been saying it every month since. Maybe they get it now.

On Twitter, "Ted" referred to how proud he was to be Cuban, and I asked him, "Then why do you use the made-up Anglo name Ted, just like Nimarata Randhawa Haley goes by Nikki Halley? It's almost as if you know your voters are too racist to vote for you otherwise." He came after me. I struck a nerve.

Screenshot of a post on X from Colombian President Gustavo Petroβs verified account. The post reads: βUS government officials have committed a murder and violated our sovereignty in territorial waters. Fisherman Alejandro Carranza had no ties to the drug trade and his daily activity was fishing. The Colombian boat was adrift and had its distress signal up due to an engine failure. We await explanations from the US government.β

Hark, Speaker Mike Johnson! Looking at all the many, many pics of the enormous, joyous βNo Kingsβ rallies throughout the United States today, I am struck by what lovely weather your Lord and Savior provided. Apparently, God is a fan of, as you claimed, "America-hating Antifa terrorists." Glory!
