After MTG lied about me for weeks, she said that she felt bad for my unborn child because he'd have me as a mother. Her rhetoric led to threats against my family.

No one, even her, should receive threats like those, but I'd like to see her own up to the role she played in creating them for others.

That is patently false: not only do immigrants score better than native-born Americans in tests, the mere presence of immigrants improve test scores for all students, when factoring in white flight

I think you're basically doing PR for a person like this if you don't force them to grapple with why they gleefully participated in the heinous political culture they're now decrying. Do you understand why you were wrong or are you just mad because you didn't expect to be a victim

something you have to understand about Trump & his weird comments about the economy is that the dude hasn't paid for anything like a normal person in decades - never pumps gas, never buys groceries - so he's completely & utterly out of touch with what life is like for most of us

Conspiracy theorist election denier given FEMA’s second-most important role Gregg Phillips will lead the Office of Response and Recovery, β€œthe heart of what FEMA does.”

In October, Phillips posted that he had β€œa meaningful and productive call” with then-FEMA Acting Administrator David Richardson (another completely unqualified appointee who recently resigned). Unclear why he was given the meeting, but it would appear a job for him was in the works.

Phillips has called himself a β€œvocal opponent of FEMA” and now leads arguably its most important division.

He once wrote on LinkedIn that FEMA has β€œfailed to deliver a comprehensive and detailed plan for working with the faith community,” and touted responders β€œwith a Christ centered approach.”

SCOOP β€” Gregg Phillips, a conspiracy theorist with no emergency management experience who helped produce the election-denying documentary β€˜2000 Mules’ with Dinesh D’Souza and has faced numerous legal inquiries, has been named head of FEMA’s Office of Response and Recovery.

Teach a man who hates socialism and votes for authoritarianism to farm and he can receive socialist handouts for life from the government that bankrupted him in the first place.

Disgusting. It will take a long time to regain trust with countries who were once allies.

NEW: We sent a letter demanding that ICE end immigration detention at Fort Bliss, the same facility used to intern people of Japanese descent during World War II.

People detained at this facility are denied adequate food, medical care, and are physically and sexually abused by the guards.

Trump says Lisa Cook is unfit to be a Fed governor because she claimed two different properties as her primary residence on her mortgage applications. (Cook denies this.)

Trump did the exact same thing on mortgage applications submitted a mere 7 weeks apart.

it is actually kind of bananas how unitary executive theorists have taken a straightforward clause requiring the president to "faithfully execute the laws" and transformed it into a grant for the exercise of limitless unenumerated power.

Congressional investigations are likely the ONLY accountability this administration will face. Bondi won't arrest anyone. US officials can't be tried at the Hague. And even if we get a new AG in 2029, Trump is going to pardon everyone. These midterms are crucial for accountability.
