Former Hill rat, current fed up public servant tired of Trump withholding/terminating congressionally appropriated funds to states, forever fan of cheese. Mom, Dem, and pro rule of law.

Jake Lang, the white supremacist leader of this violent rally, was pardoned by Trump after participating in January 6th.

Imagine if Democrats had pardoned someone who then led a violent attack on Republican mayors?

It'd be 24-7 news. Our media institutions all bend the knee to the right-wing.

Decades from now people are going to wonder why this was ever doubted given how laughably obvious it is. But yet many still dismiss it as a crazy liberal conspiracy theory.

I think you mean we’ve always been conducting a military operation in Eurasia.

TAPPER: You know that if you vote against an additional $50 billion of funding for operations in Iran, that vote will be cast as you voting against the troops.

CHRIS MURPHY: Come on. The American people do not want this war. If you support the troops, you should be voting against this war.

The β€œhistory won’t be kind” posts are kinda driving me crazy. These people think slavery was fun. They don’t care about history now and they won’t care if they’re remembered as murderous traitors to humanity decades from now either. Trump would just be glad people are still talking about him.

The national suicide being committed by the Republican-led United States has no historical precedent. Centuries from now (if humanity survives that long), historians will struggle to explain how such a thing was possible.

I’m sorry, doing this in a baseball cap sold by your campaign store is deliberately disrespecting the dead.

Nothing Trump does surprises me anymore. But somehow, despite being 10 years into this now, I am shocked each time Congressional Republicans cede their own power, taking another step toward their own self-destruction, to go along with it.

Wouldn't it be great if we had a Congress that would flex its powers and restrain a belligerent, reckless President who is leading America into WW3?

Hard to keep telling my kids to study hard when a member of the President’s cabinet still has a job after saying things like β€œthe Western Hemisphere is absolutely critical to national security.”

They both knew but they cratered under pressure from King Gauche. There’s no trade off or amount of pressure in the world that would get me to support Noem or RFK, Jr - esp if I hold a medical license. Weak men with even weaker morals.

They literally spent the past 4-plus years blasting Biden over the withdrawal from Afghanistan and how "rushed" it was.

The fact that Noem killed her puppy is bad enough. That she thought it would make for an inspiring leadership anecdote to include in her book tells me she is beyond reach.

What is the point of the β€œTrump is only doing this to distract from x” posts?What does it matter? Should we not care about unnecessary strikes in Iran? Peaceful protestors getting killed by ICE goons? Foreign gulags? Costs rising? Rampant corruption? Public health dismantling?
