DeLAURO: Are you planning to break the law by impounding appropriated funds?

RFK Jr: If you appropriate the funds, I'm going to spend them

D: We have! You're cutting the NIH by $18b. Congress appropriated those funds. How can you justify cutting billions from the biomedical research budget?

Booker: Strom Thurmond’s record always kind of just really irked me. That the longest speech on our great Senate floor was from someone who was trying to stop people like me from being in the Senate. So to surpass that became more important to me.

Comic of a support group consisting of Bigfoot, a leprechaun, a mermaid, and a pink unicorn. On a chair next to the mermaid is a small vile of syrem. She points to it and says, "I'd like everyone to welcome our newest member to the group, the vaccine that causes autism."

RFK Jr. has hired anti-vaccine activist David Geier to lead a study looking to link autism to vaccines, although that link has been heavily studied and thoroughly debunked. Geier does not have a medical degree & was disciplined in Maryland for practicing medicine without a license.

The mainstream media ignores or at best severely downplays unhinged lunacy like this but every cough and gaffe from Democrats is huge front page news for days. People are going to die because of it, just like they did under Reagan, Bush and Bush II. The msm is cancerous.

Ossoff: He’s so consumed by his efforts to secure revenge, crush his enemies, and conquer Greenland that he’s doing nothing for the people who elected him. His entire domestic agenda is tax breaks for the wealthy, rounding up immigrants, revenge, and centralizing as much power as he can..

🤬🤬🤬

🤮

Stop defining Trump defying the Supreme Court as the red line. He is a lawless tyrant *right now*. He is failing to comply with court orders *right now*. He is violating the Constitution and the law *right now*. We're past all the red lines.

Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

It’s unreal - the DOD deleted its page for Charles Calvin Rodgers, a Medal of Honor recipient who was wounded three times while defending against three assaults on his base in Vietnam. Now the URL includes “DEI Medal of Honor.” There’s something about Rodgers I don’t even have to tell you

A strong statement from the head of Voice of America, who points out that Trump‘s move to silence this important journalistic entity will help the tyrannical governments of Russia, China, Iran, and other repressive states. This is not America First; this is the abandonment of democracy.

The New York Times is the first to put out comprehensive estimates on the cost of a year without U.S.A.I.D. and they’re higher than I thought:
- 1.65 million deaths from AIDS
- 500,000 from lack of vaccines
- 550,000 from lack of food aid
- 290,000 from malaria
- 310,000 from TB

Three things, nazi doughboy.

One, I've had a job since I was 14. Too many decades ago. That is how long I've paid into Social Security.

Two, January 6th was also a work day.

Three, please tell your wife we see her, too. We see you, Usha Eva Braun Vance.

If you live in NC, call every Republican politician you know. Call every farmer you know and ask them to do the same

When money walks , voters talk. Make sure they know this effects everyone in their town and state

There was a point in 1933, right after Hitler’s election and the anti-Jewish boycott in Berlin, in which the world responded by boycotting German goods. The response from Nazi Germans? Depthless self-pity at how the Jews had cruelly turned the world against them.

I’m not the least bit naïve, but I never thought I would see this happening to my country in my lifetime…

Ditto!

Trump and Vance
just pissed on the graves,
the sacrifices, and the memories
of every person
whoever served in
the American military.

Prime Minster Trudeau with the UK prime minister

Canada Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has announced new sanctions against key Kremlin allies, including “paramilitary organizations, their leaders, and others.”, who are complicit in helping Russia wage war in Ukraine.

“We won’t allow Russia’s enablers to prolong this illegal invasion.”

I cannot remember a moment in American history when our foreign policy shifted so dramatically & quickly.

Trump doesn't want to be the leader of the free world. He wants to join the autocratic world.

I hope the US Congress and the American people will prevent this switch.

. @mcfaulmike.bsky.social : "All of our enemies throughout all of our history have been dictatorships. Our most enduring allies, our strongest allies, have always been democracies. And today our president wants to switch sides."

Reminder: Trump is a coward. Pass it on.

Could not agree more. The Prez & VP are shameful, embarrassing Putin puppets & a disgrace to our country. 🤮

Did Obama and Clinton both come down with laryngitis this week?

Today, in a meeting at the White House, the only person actually defending American interests was Zelenskyy.

Let that sink in.

Federal workers at a Virginia town hall last night—this says it all!

“I know their goal is to make us miserable.” — so they don’t show up to work.

And Dems, take note: People aren’t here for your ill-timed, tone-deaf donation requests. It’s going to backfire. They want to see you fight for them!
