If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected — young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! — and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.

What's she up to? Why the about-face?

There has to be a legal maneuver to get around this to get her sworn in.

Yes, I was very surprised when the BBC covered this extensively. I don't get it either.

Frey: And don't just say, this is about thoughts and prayers right now. These kids were literally praying. It was the first week of school. They were in a church.

The extremely simple fact is that Jeff Epstein was the most notorious child sex trafficker in history, and the President of the US was his close personal friend for decades

Acting like this is complicated is absurd. The man knew what Epstein did, didn't care, and participated

She knows. She just doesn't care.

Agreed. Schumer is good at posturing and expressing concern. But we need action (now), and that is what he seems unable to deliver.

People, we need to stop saying, I can’t believe they’ve sunk so low! Then they start unscrewing the floorboards to go lower as if it’s a challenge.

Reminder to the US Marines in Los Angeles: It is unlawful to obey a unlawful order.

Reminder no. 871: Congress can stop this insanity any time it so chooses.

Under the Constitution, *Congress*, not the President, has the power to tax and to impose tariffs. They gave it away. They can take it back.

Call your Congress reps, especially if they are GOP. Tell them: ENOUGH!

Schumer needs to stop talking until he has an actual plan. This constant posturing and preening does nothing to solve anything. Enough talking...do something.

Even if he really did win it, why brag about it online? It's pretty immature.

This is great. I wonder, though, how many of these people voted for him. If so, they could have prevented the very thing they're protesting.

It is legal to criticize the president. It is legal to criticize the president's actions. It is legal to criticize the president's advisors. It is legal and patriotic and the blood of a healthy society to hold those in power accountable, and even to mock them. Remember it.

Someone who alleges to be a Christian is bearing false witness. One of the ten commandments clearly speaks against this. Hmmm...

NEW: Elon Musk is trying to buy Wisconsin’s Supreme Court, spending millions to install bought-and-paid-for MAGA extremist Brad Schimel.

Today, @WisDems launches a campaign to punch back: The People v. Musk.🧵

At what point does the military step in? Isn’t that what often happens in dictatorships where the dictator goes insane? Isn’t the US military supposed to have a plan for everything?

I think he said "inoculated," which was deliberately misleading. I agree with your last sentence.
