Rep. Crockett’s Statement on the Supreme Court’s Ruling on Texas’s 2026 Map

Alito on the first point he finds “decisive”: “the impetus for the adoption of the Texas map…was partisan advantage plain & simple.”

Red herring. Everyone concedes this.

Kagan with the actual dispositive question: “did TX accomplish its partisan objectives by means of a racial gerrymander?”

I know it's too easy to grow numb to the constant flood of bigotry that comes out of his mouth but it does seem morally important you don't allow yourself or anyone else to become desensitized to this vile racism as a normal part of our politics

We didn’t hit it twice

We did hit it twice and that’s legal

The Admiral did it

We didn’t see them

I’m in the fog of war and you’re not even though I am right where you are

Rewarding a dictator-aggressor always leads to another war. One that is usually even worse.

This is an accidentally honest answer. What she's saying in code is:
"The President is a misogynist, petulant bully. You've all seen him be a misogynist, petulant bully. And lots of voters out there are also misogynist or petulant or bullies and that's why they like him."

I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

A reminder that Trump is loyal to no one. No one. He will always eventually screw over everyone.

In the most predictable development ever, Mike Johnson is not committing to hold a House vote on ACA subsidies

This right here.

All of this

FBI: "We didn't zip tie children."

REPORTER: "Here's a photo of a zip tied 14 year old."

FBI" "OK, we didn't zip tie YOUNG children."

I'm so healthy
that I always have a "routine MRI"

Facts.

When advocates were pushing for same day registration in New Jersey to help boost turnout, one Hudson County legislator would go around saying, "I don't care if only 3 people vote, so long as I know that 2 of them are voting for me!"

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

Great framing.

Over the past week, the president said the DOJ should pay him a quarter billion dollars, bulldozed half the White House to build himself a gaudy ballroom, bragged about murdering civilians in international waters, pardoned some more criminals, directed federal prosecutors to indict his opponents ...

WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is “the president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom

My feelings, exactly.

After Trump got his Covid shot, he chose to fire the scientists protecting the rest of us from diseases.

Free Greta Thunberg and the rest of the illegally detained flotilla activists.

This is what Ice is doing in front of the cameras, imagine what they’re doing when no one is filming

I must admit, I underestimated how easy it would be for fascism to take over the United States of America.

In a sane world, Fox host Brian Kilmeade would be fired and shunned for his depraved comments that homeless people should be euthanized. That’s sick (and deeply ignorant), but sicker still is that it’s tolerated.

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

If NATO doesn’t set clear boundaries here, these probing missions by Russia won’t stop.
