In an op-ed for the 'Boston Globe,' Maxwell Taylor Kennedy shared how his father worked to establish the very social programs that his namesake son is now trying to gut. people.com/rfk-jr-s-lit...

I never thought this would be the outcome for Marjorie Taylor Green but I never thought she would be elected to Congress after chasing & harassing David Hogg in the streets in DC after the Parkland shooting.

AND 100 wealthiest Americans donated $1.1 billion
toward races last year, mostly to Republicans. That amount was 140X more than what the wealthiest 100 Americans gave in the 2000 elections, & $350 million greater than their spending for 2020 federal elections.

If Congress will not pass a resolution condemning Trump’s unhinged calls for the imprisonment and execution of elected officials, they’re essentially giving him permission to keep pushing for political violence.

Enten: "This is probably the worst 10 day period for the president in the polls his entire second term. The numbers are just atrocious ... when your best poll has you 14 points underwater, you know it's truly bad and it's as bad as 26 points underwater ... -43 with independents! They despise him."

How is it possible that any woman OR a man - who has a mom, wife, daughter, sister, grandmother, aunt, niece, or female coworker - supports this hateful misogynistic POS?

It’s indefensible!

A message from @deluzio.house.gov: Today, Donald Trump called for my death and arrest.
He didn’t want to hear a basic lesson: the oath to the Constitution comes above all.
I will not be intimidated, and I will uphold my oath.
DONT GIVE UP THE SHIP!

Breaking: The House voted unanimously, 426-0, to strip a provision in the funding bill that allowed senators to sue the government for $500K if their phone data was searched without their knowledge.

The provision was designed for GOP senators to sue over the Jack Smith investigation.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.

The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

Marjorie Taylor Greene floats bill to end H-1B visas The debate puts a spotlight on differing visions for the future of America's workforce and competitiveness in global technology.

Marjorie Taylor Greene shows her true racist colors by introducing a new bill to "END the mass replacement of American workers" by ultimately phasing out the H-1B visa program.

CIA concludes Saudi crown prince ordered Jamal Khashoggi’s assassination Audio recordings, intercepted phone calls and other intelligence link Mohammed bin Salman to killing that Saudis say was conducted by rogue elements.

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

I hired and worked with Jamal for a year.

New Poll from @kff.org & @nytimes.com:

As of June 2025, there were 51.9 million immigrants living in the U.S. with roughly 1 in 4 children living with at least 1 immigrant parent.

More & more immigrants including naturalized citizens are worried & living in fear.

Few approve of Trump’s tactics.

The bill forces the release within 30 days of all files & communications related to Epstein. It allows the DOJ to redact information about the victims or continuing fed investigations, but not info due to "embarrassment, reputational harm, or political sensitivity." www.pbs.org/newshour/amp...

Finally! The House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed a bill ordering the release of the DOJ's Epstein files. The vote was 427-1 with GOP Rep. Clay Higgins as the only vote against.

The bill will now head to the Senate, where its fate is uncertain.
