Have Adelina Grijalva show up everyday and demand they swear her in. The people voted,

🚨 Rep. Jim McGovern attempted to swear in Adelita Grijalva, Rep Elect AZ-07, but they would NOT recognize him in the House. He has a candid reason as to why he thinks this happened. 1/2

I need this tee shirt

The democrats speaking out, is the right thing to do. I choose to support freedoms, democracy, the truth. Let’s stand together. I choose to support those that want to make things better for all of us.

Pritzker: “The Trump administration is following a playbook: Cause chaos, create fear and confusion, make it seem that peaceful protesters are a mob by firing gas pellets and tear gas canisters at them. Why? To create the pretext for invoking the Insurrection Act.”

Schumer: That issue that MAGA Mike keeps talking about—illegal immigrants getting health care. It’s an effing lie. The law says that federal dollars cannot go to illegal immigrants under Medicare, Medicaid, or the ACA.

And I said that to him in the room. I said, You’re lying. He smirked.

I am a big supporter and listener of Lawrence O’DONNELL.

Rayfield: When Trump learned that this was a judge who was appointed by him, he said he wasn’t served well.

To have any president or any politician in America say a judge is not serving them—words can’t even describe how backwards that is.

Phang: He’s not the king. He’s the court jester.

Ariana Grande wants to know…

Some of us understand.

Now you know

Absolutely lawless. Completely trampling on what the founding fathers designed.

John Oliver: "If ICE can bother some guys at a roofing job, bystanders can bother ICE at their state-sanctioned kidnapping job."

ICE is made up of men who have failed the human test and have nothing of value to offer this nation.

Adults with decency and options and possibilities don’t do this shit.

Well, yeah, we're suing ICE.

This wasn't really a hard decision. As little faith as we have in institutions, we recognize the value of drawing visible lines in the sand. We drew ours personally a while ago, but better late than never.

May every protester be freed and may this occupation end.

Let’s fast forward to when these ICE fuckers are all on trial for their crimes against humanity and the Constitution.

The image is an X post by Face The Nation (@FaceTheNation ) from 10 hours ago, reporting on Illinois Sen. Tammy Duckworth, a combat veteran and Army helicopter pilot wounded during the Iraq War, responding to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's argument for gender-neutral fitness standards in the military. Duckworth states that Hegseth is the "least qualified Secretary of Defense in our nation's history" and questions his ability to judge women who qualify for their jobs. She adds that Hegseth has long sought to push women out of the military and that, frankly, their military could not do its job of protecting America without women who serve. The post includes a link to the full segment (cbsn.ws/4pWtgl0) and a screenshot from the broadcast.

A stuffed suit like Pete Hegseth has nothing on a badass like Sen. Tammy Duckworth.

Reason 2,172,908 why Democrats are better.

"Instead of focusing on what actually improves force readiness, he continues to waste time and taxpayer dollars on He-Man culture-war theatrics."

— Janessa Goldbeck, USMC veteran and CEO of the Vet Voice Foundation, on Secretary Pete Hegseth

Buried in the polls, with every American screaming for the Epstein files, the walls are closing in on Tangerine Palpatine.

Sending troops to every city you can in a desperate attempt to make martial law happen is not strength. It’s the last gasp of a dying regime.

I Refuse to Stay Silent. Will You? Read more here.

I refuse to let hopelessness prevail. This may just be one essay, by a lawyer few have heard of, in a newsletter read by a fraction of the public. But I will not stay silent.

The image is an X post by Acyn (@Acyn ) from 13 hours ago, quoting Pritzker: "He's saying that Chicago is a war zone. None of that is true. They're just making this up. And then what do they do? They fire tear gas and smoke grenades, and they make it look like it's a war zone." The post includes a screenshot from CNN's "State of the Union" showing two individuals discussing, with a chyron indicating DHS officers fired at a driver who rammed their vehicle, later determined to be someone trying to storm the Presidential Palace, as the South Caucasus Coalition.

This is like planting evidence and then making an arrest.

Judge Esther Salas, whose son was murdered in 2020, issues a dire warning today:

“Officials from top to bottom” are using rhetoric that puts judges at risk:
