Senator Gallego - “How can I negotiate? The president’s in Asia for five days. Johnson’s keeping the House out until January to protect pedophiles. So who am I negotiating with?"

Mike Johnson has given the house a very very very very very very very very very long vacation because he’s worried about the Epstein files

It really feels like they’re trolling our autocrat.

We do not have to keep living like this.

Wake up, America, or I fear we may not have elections in 2028.

#Autism was discovered in 1911. #Tylenol was invented in 1950. Not distracted.
Release the #Epstein Files.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.

Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.

Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.

But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

Under Dr. Oz, Medicare is launching a pilot program that will use AI to determine whether patients would be covered for certain procedures.

Companies running the program will be paid a share of the savings from rejecting claims.

Who in their right mind voted for this? No one.

July 2025 survey: 47% of GOP voters would still back Trump if tied to Epstein’s sex crimes.

Trump commandeers 800 National Guard troops for DC's phantom crime spree, morphing the military into his deportation henchmen and authoritarian cudgel; erstwhile constitutional sentinels now capitulate to careerist incentives. #Trumpism

DC statehood is now an imperative. No more dicking around. Next Dem majority, get it done immediately.

CBO: Republican megabill to cost $4.1T, due to higher borrowing costs The measure is also expected to add trillions to the federal deficit.

Americans are sick of rising costs. So what are Republicans doing about it? They’re pushing them up further. This new nonpartisan CBO report shows that their billionaire tax giveaway adds $4.1T to the national credit card, which will drive up interest rates for ALL Americans.

A legal permanent resident researching cures for Lyme disease has been detained by immigration officials for over a week.

He has reportedly been denied access to an attorney and his family has not been given a reason for his detention.

We cannot become immune to this cruelty.

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office.
2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor.
3) Donors make a huge profit.
4) Repeat.

For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.

Trump’s solution to record high beef prices in the US is to have our farmers export it to other countries to drive prices up even higher. Australians won’t buy it, but it also shows again that he doesn’t care about the average American consumer he only cares about big business.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.
