This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics. It’s the root of all evil in Washington.
Who would have guessed that the legal system in America was so fragile that a single crazy president could ignore the whole thing, from the Constitution right down to state laws?
Why does the Supreme Court and Congress let this demented moron act like the dictator of a banana republic?
"The Price of Safety: Stories of Abortions Denied, Careers Disrupted, and States Left Behind" details the human and economic toll of abortion bans. The anthology uses stories from patients, doctors, business leaders, and others to show the real-world consequences of abortion bans.
Trump threatens to withhold his signature on bills until Congress passes the SAVE Act.
Wow. Devastating leverage...
EXCEPT the Constitution says that bills passed while Congress is in session become law automatically after 10 days with OR without his signature.
So he's threatening to do - nothing.

Russia is providing Iran intelligence to target U.S. forces. Not surprising. What IS surprising? Our response: easing oil sanctions on Russia.
Full breakdown on this and more from my Weekend Update on my Substack page: adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/weekend-vi...
The war on Iran is unfolding alongside a wave of mass layoffs in the US. These are not separate crises. They are two sides of the same offensive by the ruling class against the working class.
I have a hard time believing anyone, anywhere wants to be surveilled.
Our government is chillingly out of control. Wake up or suffer the consequences of letting this happen.
Just when you think it can’t get worse…
Gen Z has some catching up to do in this regard!
For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:
Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down
Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace
Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs
Folks, we’ve seen this all before.
Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say “Send me” wherever we have a chance to make an impact.
How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.
Oh.
“We have agreed” — how nice of them! Surely they’re doing this work pro bono right?
White House: the witness’s allegations are “completely baseless” and “backed by zero credible evidence.”
Fact: FBI found her credible enough to interview repeatedly, and she received a financial settlement from the Epstein estate.
I’m so tired of bad people getting away with doing bad things.
Basically all of the bad economic news this term is because the president deliberately decided to do something moronic. He is much more personally responsible for this than most presidents are for the downturns in their administration.
Well would you look at that
Found this site for US mass shootings.
America is more violent than ever.
Violence begets violence
Please 🙏 stop, it’s not about mental health. It’s about a culture where the DoD is now the Department of War, intentionally.

The cost of war is a grand theft. We must get back to using our words to solve problems- like what we learned (or didn’t learn) in kindergarten.
Not true. We condemn actions which are unAmerican. The man is seriously flawed in disregarding our American constitution and the laws of our country.
So many of us warned that Donald Trump is a dangerous, reckless pathological liar who can’t be trusted except to take actions that enrich himself and save his own skin. This war will not distract us from demanding he be held accountable for his Epstein involvement & violations of our Constitution.
If only--IF ONLY--we knew a power couple close to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell who could be deposed to answer questions about them! (scratches chin, furrows brow searching fruitlessly for any kind of answer)
This is the First Lady you should be questioning about the Epstein Files, not Hilary.
The level of political and judicial corruption within this current administration is staggering. Once these people are exposed and prosecuted it's going to take about 5 years of legislation to create laws to prevent this debacle from ever happening again!
