To be clear:
These donations are bribes, made anonymously to conceal Trump’s corruption.

Abrego Garcia indictment led top federal prosecutor in Tennessee to resign: Sources

Wow. What a sign that criminal case against Abrego Garcia may be politically cooked up.

"Schrader’s resignation was prompted by concerns that the case was being pursued for political reasons"

Schrader spent 15 years in the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Nashville and was chief of the criminal division

Hugs to you as well. My plan is to cry all the tears and treasure every memory and make every day a memorial to my Gus.

My boy crossed the rainbow bridge on Monday and I am overwhelmed with sadness and longing for him. I am so sorry you are also going through this loss.

A lot of people seem to think following the U.S. Constitution is optionalβ€”like picking which shoes to wear in the morning. It’s not. If you’re within the boundaries of the United States, the Constitution applies to you.

Wow! Updated estimates now put turnout at 2.3 million β€” and we’re still waiting on reports from coalition members in other areas, with some events yet to begin! If you’re free, come out and join us. Over 1,400 events are planned across the country.

Donald Trump is imposing a huge tariff on all of our allies but EXCLUDING Russia and North Korea.

That should tell you all you need to know.

Use every parliamentary arrow in your quiver to stop the Trump agenda

Holds

Filibusters

Speeches

Refuse unanimous consent

Add as many amendments to bills as you can

Force as many votes as you can

And never-under any circumstances-accept feckless choices

Be bold
Be brave
Be a leader

I don’t think people understand just how bad this is.

The best case scenario is the Great Recession, the worst case scenario is the Great Depression.

Thank you,
@muellershewrote.com for recognizing the amount of work it took to make this giant stride in the right direction.

Florida Democrats are committed to continue working towards future wins and we won’t stop until we see it happen.

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

Roberts is in the finding out phase after fvcking around with the Immunity case for so damn long. Characterizing Donald’s call to impeach judges as β€œinappropriate” has some serious Susan Collins energy!… πŸ™„

I can’t pretend to be outraged by what I expected from Trump & the Republican Party.

However, I am sickened that so many sat on their asses and let this happen, as well by those who gleefully comply with, clearly, illegal orders whose intent is nothing but cruelty and chaos.

Trump thinks we have transgender mice because he doesn't understand what transgenic means.

Hegseth thinks we have gay aircraft because a pilot named his plane after his mother whose surname was Gay.

Musk thinks he saved us money on contracts cancelled when George W. Bush was president.
