I really cannot imagine going to all the trouble of getting elected to the Senate only to get there and decide not to stand up for healthcare, or democracy, or people’s ability to afford their lives. If those things aren’t worth fighting for, then truly what is?

Mr. "I Don't Take Responsibility At All" thinks the MASSIVE BLUE WAVE was because he wasn't on the ballot, not
a Major Referendum on his 2nd Term.

Turns out folks prefer feeding the hungry over building expen$ive, tacky Ballrooms.

Looking forward to the midterms... 🌊

Excessive force. PERIOD!

They called them β€œviolent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor.

Trump Spirals on Election Day as Blue Wave Builds - 11/4/25 Updates From defying court orders to spewing anti-Semitic attacks, Trump’s Election Day meltdown shows the chaos of a regime unraveling.

As millions of Americans head to the polls, Trump spent his morning panic posting on social media, attacking the courts, state elections, and even Jewish Americans who dare to vote against his wishes. His desperation was on full display.

Trump is openly taking bribes, publicly ordering political prosecutions, and murdering people in naked violation of both US and international law, all while claiming the Supreme Court gave him absolute immunity.

The GOP-controlled Congress loves it

Loves it so much they're on a perpetual vacation

Former AG Eric Holder to MeidasTouch: The Supreme Court Is β€˜Broken’—Reform Must Be on the Table In an exclusive interview, former Attorney General Eric Holder tells Ben Meiselas that term limits and even expanding the Supreme Court must be seriously considered if Democrats regain a trifecta

Former AG Eric Holder: β€œIf there is a Democratic trifecta in 2028, Supreme Court reform is something that has to be considered. Term limits, at a minimum, and potentially expanding the Court, should be on the table.”

Dick Cheney did more than anyone else to build up expansive and destructive executive branch powers in the wake of 9/11; he lived to see another president turn those same powers against his own daughter.

He should be a warning sign to the GOP today but too many of them are in the cult.

πŸ“ŒDick Cheney helped push W. Bush into an illegal war based on lies that resulted in the killing and wounding of hundreds of thousands of innocent troops and civilians, and then profited handsomely off of it.
He was one of history's worst people. Don't dishonor the dead by honoring this monster.
