This exchange is quite something

It begins with Attorney General Bondi alleging that grand jurors who indicted Comey were "liberal" (Grand jury identities are to be secret)

And ends with her mentioning the "great picture" showing her and Trump and others at dinner

If this was a no, it would be really easy to say no.

Bondi’s ad hominem attack on Whitehouse is WAY more of an answer than she realizes.

Claim: 10 cars rammed ICE

No

They need to call her behavior out to her face

Each one of them needs to dress her down and remind her who she works for

They need to remind her that more than just her bitch boss is watching right now.

I’m sick of how they allow her to malign them- we are them- they are our reps

Jeffries: "Johnson has to actually answer that Q as to why Republicans have refused to seat Rep.-elect Grijalva. Why?... when it comes to enacting tax breaks for Republican donors, they race to do it...she will be the 218th signature on a petition to force a vote on the release of the Epstein files"

What's happening in Chicago is not normal.

The arrest of Alderperson Fuentes is just the latest example of how far Noem and Bovino are willing to go to ignore the rule of law. We must all speak up.

President Trump’s move to cut billions from energy and infrastructure projects is killing thousands of American construction jobs.

It’s not just me saying it…here’s what lots of those workers have to say 🧡

"bucking tradition and legal precedent" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here.

Her contempt is extraordinary.

Trump thinks he's a king. He believes he's accountable to no one. Not Congress. Not the American people.

And so when his people testify before the Senate, they act like they are bound by no rules and no laws.

whats the point in "dealing" with the Trump administration when this is the person executing the deal, and is openly promising to violate the laws and break any agreeement? If you want to bargain for something in the shutdown fight, make firing Vought a condition of any funding package.

With this Nat’l Guard deployment Trump is openly defying a judge HE HIMSELF appointed, who worked for Ken Starr against Clinton, and was made US Attorney by Bush.

That’s where we are. He has no respect for the Constitution or the judges who put country over party to follow it.

Trump's threat to deploy our active duty troops to U.S. cities in a "war" against our citizens is un-American and dangerous.

We need to rein in Presidential power, and my bill to reform the Insurrection Act of 1807 does just that.

Republicans continue to postpone the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva, the newest Democrat elected to Congress, for a seventh day.

Her day one promise is to be the tie-breaking vote to release the Epstein files.

In the chaotic country we are living in, our state courts are our final line of defense.

Right now we need leaders who will uphold the rule of law, protect women’s reproductive rights, defend our freedoms, and keep our courts fair and independent.

Early voting is underway in Virginia.

83 HDs have a (D) & an (R) appearing on their ballots.

17 of the most overwhelmingly Dem Va. HDs only have a (D) appearing on their ballots, because no Va. (R)s filed to run in those HDs. If Va. Dems get massive turnout in these 17 HDs, this election is over.

It's amazing that a major political party can be exposed for never believing anything they say AND YET they still get endless benefit of the doubt. That's white power.
