Theyโ€™re not cowardly.
Theyโ€™re complicit.

Assuming theyโ€™re cowardly gives them the benefit of the doubt of being in opposition.

Bernie Sanders: "What this Senate is about to do is make a horrific situation even worse. So let's be clear what this vote is about. If this vote succeeds, over 20 million Americans are gonna see at least a doubling in their premiums in the ACA."

Newsom: "Think about the state of mind of the VP. How do you square the circle when you go to a prayer breakfast? Old testament, new testament. What's the fundamental thing that connects John to Matthew to Proverbs? It's this notion of hunger, feeding the poor. It's central to advancing God's will."

I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time.

Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again.

An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleaguesโ€™ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next.

Understand what it is to pray in Chicago.

Sen Dems: OK, we'll vote to open the government if all promise to give us a vote on health-care in the future.

This photograph captures a close view of weathered Doric columns from the Parthenon on the Acropolis in Athens. The stone is sun-bleached and fractured, bearing the marks of time and restoration. The compressed perspective draws attention to geometry and erosion โ€” order collapsing slowly into texture.

True. YOU try achieving economic security as a farmer before we had either agricultural subsidies or a safety net. And donโ€™t even get me started on the additional dangers introduced by our primitive banking system, ignorance of how to deal with the business cycle, and the gold standard.

Comer on why he thinks Biden's pardons were worse than Trump saying he knows nothing about people he's pardoning: "Nobody is accusing Donald Trump of not knowing what day it is, what year it is, the pardon process and things like that, so I think there's a big difference."

Someone should go there and show them the clips of Trump's Great Gatsby party. I bet they'd be so happy to know he's having fun.

Stefanikโ€™s run for New York governor could be a gift to Democrats Stefanikโ€™s Trump support will be easy fodder for Gov. Kathy Hochul and down-ballot House candidates.

Democrats are salivating over the possibility of Rep. Elise Stefanik leading the Republican ticket in deep blue New York next year. Stefanik, a zealous Trump ally, launched her gubernatorial campaign Fridayโ€”handing Democrats a chance to tie every Republican in the state to Trumpโ€™s brand of politics.

Trump is extorting drug companies to sell their drug through his personal website at lower prices. This is a private company that puts money in his familyโ€™s pockets.

Modern day โ€œrobber baronsโ€! Wealthy, powerful, corrupt, unethical, and unapologetic. Built on religion and greed, It took the Great Depression and FDR to take them down last time. Thatโ€™s why they want to tear down everything FDR created and dismantle his legacy. ๐Ÿ‘‡

The Trump regime is the 4th Reich wrapped in fake patriotism disguised as Sharia Christianity

Starving those they deem unworthy

Next its a woman's right to vote

Then the only religion permitted will be Christian Nationalist

The constitution will be dead and the rule of law perverted

Folks this is not a candid shot of the man at 11PM on a weekend, this is what he was doing while sitting in the middle of an internationally broadcast major press conference in the Oval Office

He is cooked, get him out of there ASAPโ€”before we find ourselves in the midst of a second Great Depression
