DEMS WIN BIG IN IOWA: Democrat Renee Hardman wins IA State Senate SD-16 with 71.5%, a 27-point Dem overperformance from 2024. Harris won the district by 16. Hardman's victory blocks a GOP supermajority and makes history as the first Black woman elected to the Iowa Senate.

RFK Jr and โ€œfamily friendlyโ€ should not be allowed in the same sentence, page or dimensional plane.

I like how people in the Trump Administration are too stupid to avoid becoming evidence in any war crimes trials after they leave office.

Pete Hegseth must be immediately called before both Houses of Congress and be told to his face in front of the nation and the world, that if he gives illegal or Unconstitutional orders, he will face prison for the rest of his natural life.

As a typical person with absolutely no rizz whatsoever, I am always dumbfounded by what people with charisma can accomplish.

The U.S. Must Not Push Ukraine Into an Unjust, Unstable Peace It would be a moral betrayal and a strategic blunder.

"To allow Russia to keep any territory where those crimes were committed would not be a compromise. It would be a betrayal."

@markhertling.bsky.social on the disgraceful "peace plan" Trump is pushing Ukraine to take โ€” only @thebulwark.com: www.thebulwark.com/p/ukraine-ru...

Friends call your Senators and House Member and demand they work against this outrageous betrayal of Ukraine and Europe.

Every Dem elected at every level of government should be denouncing this rancid appeasement of Putin.

Congress has options and should act now. Both parties and all Americans will regret this for generations.

Yes. A dress code. You should show how much you appreciate being stuffed in a winged tin can and hurled through the atmosphere by wearing your Sunday best.

Houses should โ€œgo toโ€ Americans? โ€œBy right?โ€ He doesnโ€™t even think Americans have a right to the sabasic shelter. How can he think they have a โ€œrightโ€ to buy them?

Whatโ€™s that โ€œare you readyโ€ business? Old tv script. It sounds like Johnny Carson about to deliver a zinger. Little bits of Donnieโ€™s childhood memories seeping into his speech.

Iโ€™m surprised he didnโ€™t reference the man being so overwhelmed by being in the presence of Trump that he fainted.

Seriously!! Printed on 8 1/2 x11 paper like when the boys scribble โ€œClub House! No girls allowed!โ€ on the back of an old math worksheet and stick it on their bedroom door with strips of masking tape.

Thereโ€™s the big fancy military demonstration he was looking for. He can sit right on that patio he is always talking about.

Yes. So now Iโ€™m considering adding โ€œbuilding a luxury penthouse apartment in the Washington Monumentโ€ and โ€œadding a Trump Steak House to the Lincoln Memorialโ€ to my red lines. Sheesh!

It looks like what happens when you are coloring on a sheet of paper (all yellow) and you realize there is another couple pieces of paper underneath and the edges show up as lines.

That made me think of the schools with auditorium/cafeteria=cafetorium. That made me imagine his ballroom with fold-up elementary school cafeteria tables with the connected tiny round seats. Solid gold, of course. Lol.

All teachers know that you always include exercise at the end of the field trip.

Peopleโ€™s party house. In that space, the next pres should: 1.Host weekly soup kitchen for DC residents; 2. Host naturalization ceremony for some of the people abused by ICE; 3. Host a Bad Bunny Concert!!!!

I just hope Trump lives long enough to help out when the next administration hosts a regular soup kitchen in the new space.
