Donald Trump canceled Direct File after giant tax prep companies spent millions lobbying.

Why? Because Direct File let you file your taxes for free.

So today, I’m introducing a bill to make Direct File the law of the land. And 160 members of Congress are joining me.

For all my Iowa Democrats…I got to visit with Ryan Peterman tonight about his candidacy for Secretary of State. Navy veteran and all around amazing candidate. He could use some boosting if you’d like to repost! #Iowa #politics #SecretaryofState #RyanPeterman #Democrats

This is the least qualified administration in US history to be starting a war!
U.S. intelligence assessed that Iran almost certainly was not producing nuclear weapons, and the IAEA’s director-general said as recently as Feb. that he had seen no indication Iran was currently working to develop on.

While the McDonald’s CEO gets roasted for his awkward burger taste test...

McDonald’s is among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

And McDonald's CEO recently raked in $18.2M β€” over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

That should leave a bad taste in your mouth.

Chakrabarti: We’ve basically created a federal jobs program to terrorize people through ICE. What if we used that instead to actually develop things β€” to build things people want?

It’s the same with foreign policy. We’re spending all this money dropping bombs in other countriesβ€”no one wants that.

The UK's useless media are going to focus on this solely as a Labour loss - but the more significant story is that Reform got their Trumpian hides absolutely handed to them.

Did congress authorize this fucking war where American lives will undoubtedly be lost? If not, why the fuck do we have a congress? Why are we paying very large salaries and benefits to all these assholes since they do absolutely NOTHING!

WHY We Went To WAR
YouTube video by PoliticsGirl WHY We Went To WAR

Starting an unpopular war, without congressional approval, when your economy is already struggling is a weird move in an election year, UNLESS you don’t think elections are going to matter…and the war actually HELPS with that.

We need to pass a House rule or law that requires them to work a certain number of days to get paid. Since Mike Johnson took over these people hardly ever work. When they finally come back after weeks off they work 2 days and he sends them home for 2 more weeks. It’s ridiculous.

Q: "Do you think Trump should be deposed by this committee?"

HILLARY: "Absolutely. Trump has been held civilly liable for sexual assault by a jury of his peers. That is behavior that fits a pattern."
