This was a good read. Speak truth to power.

WE FOUND THE WASTE, FRAUD, AND ABUSE:

FBI Director Kash Patel used a $60 million government jet for a booty call during the shutdown.

Not the first time. In April, he made multiple trips to Nashville to see his 26-year-old country-singer girlfriend and even flew her around to hockey games.

Jim Himes: "Where does this stop? Do we now start executing drug dealers on the corner of Brooklyn? Where does it stop if all of a sudden the government, without, telling anybody anything, can take this kind of lethal action just because they've decided they've got the right to."

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.

Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."

Did you know that over 1.3M active duty service members and veterans rely on SNAP benefits to feed themselves and their families?

Now you know.

Just diabolical….i hate this timeline

Here are the companies destroying the east wing of the White House

Overthink

Reminder: “Don’t overthink it”

He does not intend to leave.

This man lies so much it’s disgusting.

So true. I lived it and noticed right away with some of the code words about MVP. “She’s too ambitious”
Her taste was questioned. Her demeanor or lack thereof to meet a stereotype…ugh. We could had it all (in my Adele voice)

See the difference? 👀

No Kings-Chicago, IL

MSNBC captured the crowd from the Boston "No Kings" rally:

This is the No Kings protest in Orlando, Florida. 🙌💪👏✊️👇

Union for US Capitol Police:

"My officers are on duty today protecting the Capitol complex.. Friday, they missed their first FULL paycheck.The longer the shutdown drags on, the harder it becomes for my officers. Banks & landlords do not give my officers a pass because we are in shutdown.."

Blexit

I don’t agree with the mission but can see the value of #Blexit showing up. It’s imperative that @thedemcoalition.bsky.social @kenmartin.bsky.social follow suit and have a strong presence on HBCU campuses. Small gains could be detrimental generationally! #democrats

Indicting your political enemies because they’re your enemies, not because they’ve committed crimes, is unAmerican.

Needing multiple streams of income to stay afloat is a societal failure not a personal one. You should be able to afford a comfortable lifestyle with one job. You are not lazy.

They all should stay home.
