Jules in DC

Today, I voted in support of a resolution that would force Trump to get congressional approval before using military force against Venezuela.

Senate Republicans blocked it—ceding their constitutional authority to Trump.

Once again, they bent the knee to a wanna-be king.

I’ll keep pushing this line of analysis because I’m increasingly convinced the clearest path out of this mess is for Dems to adopt a relentless anti-corruption, anti-inequality, anti-oligarchy, pro-democracy platform. The Dem leadership hasn’t realized it yet, but they’re now a reform party.

"Sure, some guy whose name no one remembers, his life may be in danger, but how do I, the protagonist of reality, look?"

Her husband told her that detainees at Broadview had to get up at 5am to get in line for one bathroom. He often peed himself. One time he had to wait until 2pm to use the bathroom. You could only use the bathroom once a day. He said the agents would beat you if you used the bathroom on yourself.

He said that the agents would throw food at them to eat. The agents threatened to withhold food for a week and to beat him up if he didn't sign deportation papers. He said he saw others refuse and get beaten/receive no food. He signed because he was afraid.

Rep. Yassamin Ansari has set up a table and this sign outside Speaker Johnson’s office.

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk

Abigail Spanberger --- Mikie Sherrill --- thank you.
What a GREAT night for women in America!

It felt good to wake up in America today.

This is brilliant

It would be hard to explain to younger generations that 60 Minutes was once a real news organization and United States was once a serious country run by actual adults and not 79 year old drug-addicted rapists.

So good that it is not an escalation and never has been.

If republicans are able-bodied and getting government assistance, they should be subject to a work requirement, no?

Haha.

That's comes out to $16.28 for each of the 7 million protestors. 🙄

On the bright side, Argentina’s stock market is doing great today after Trump gave them $40 billion. Meanwhile, Americans are expected to go hungry in just a few days.

The decline isn’t subtle anymore.

So the president took a dementia test, and then they administered an MRI. Where’s the media on this?

When did making kids go hungry become a Christian value?

The USDA has funding set aside to keep food assistance programs running during emergencies.

Trump just won’t release it.

440,000 Minnesotans - and millions more Americans - will pay the price.

Maybe they’re just looking for a heart.

This right here. You don't want "charity"? Fucking PAY living wages!!! If you work a 40 hour week you should be able to easily afford feed your family!

That's such a high number. Is that like ALL of them? So basically we don't pay service members enough.

Think of your home town. All the places you spent as a child, your parents’ house, your first workplace. Now imagine every day there’s a terrorist attack there and all these places are getting damaged. I don’t need to imagine, because I am Ukrainian and this is our reality
