It’s kinda wild the President is openly corrupt, Nazi sympathizing, and very likely a pedophileβ€”and most Republicans in Congress are still willing to ignore the Constitution whenever he asks.

The goal is to take good care of myself. Trying to live long and age gracefully.

Hey Megyn Kelly,

14-year-old Eloise would like a word:

β€œIf my voice makes you uncomfortable, good…
because the minute adults start defending predators by defending the age of a child, you’re not protecting the truth, you’re protecting the predator.”

Sound up! πŸ”₯πŸ”Š

GOP Rep. John Rose on GOP senators' taxpayer-funded payouts: "I'm calling on senators to disavow this, including Marsha Blackburn, who unfortunately apparently telegraphed she's planning to take advantage of this opportunity to put millions of dollars in her pocket at the expense of the taxpayer"

Here’s the thing about healthcare premiums about to skyrocket: they will never come back down, short of a complete overhaul of our system for universal healthcare. Which clearly won’t happen bc of all the money tied up between health and politics.

The soft pedaling language being used to describe the men in the Epstein files is enraging.

They didn’t β€œhave sex with underage girls”.

They raped them.

Sex implies consent.

The survivors deserve better than this. Use the correct language. Say what these men did.

I don’t know how bad the economic numbers are going to end up this quarter. But I do know the party that controls the presidency, House and Senate is going to blame the party that doesn’t.

There is nothing β€œclean” about the Continuing Resolution that was passed tonight.

Sure, it reopens the governmentβ€”but it does nothing to address the healthcare crisis that Republicans created.

Politicians who change parties after election should have to win a special election to keep their seat. Let the voters decide.

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

My political hot take is that US voters should be able to recall elected representatives via petition - at any time.
No more hiding behind election terms.

50 year mortgages and 15 year car loans are just about keeping us working in servitude to lenders.

It’s ridiculous!!!

Good morning to everyone but especially to Lady Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, whose judgement against Rudy Giuliani for defaming them and turning their lives upside down cannot be pardoned away by the president

Americans deserve better than the eight Democratic Senators who voted on a promise, without a guarantee, to protect the Affordable Care Act.

I repeat, if YOU are not active and vigilant in Democratic primaries,
YOU are why our primaries produce weak corporate and AIPAC controlled Dems.

Period.

Progressives need to become Dem primary BULLDOZERS!

NO ONE should be able to get through a primary while being some corrupt milquetoast who

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

ICE agent wounds deputy U.S. marshal and TikTok streamer, who is charged with assault Carlitos Ricardo Parias was charged Tuesday night with assault on a federal officer after the immigration operation in L.A. in which the suspect and a U.S. marshal were injured.

Even though this happened two weeks ago I just saw it. ICE shoot a US Marshall. This is how untrained these idiots are.

The worst part about being smart is seeing how much stupidity and willful ignorance there is in the world AND having to contend with the fact that you can’t fix ANY of it.

Jeffries: β€œNobody who's serious in this country takes Dr. Oz seriously…I'm not going to respond to any comments from randos like Dr. Oz, who is woefully unqualified to be in whatever position he holds in the administration. He's a joke. These people are all jokes.”
