Sen. John Cornyn flips on the filibuster to pass SAVE America Act as Trump weighs endorsement Cornyn, who spent years defending the filibuster, is locked in a competitive GOP runoff in Texas against Ken Paxton, who has aligned with Trump on the issue.

After Cornyn and Paxton were forced into a runoff, I said we should watch just how far Senator Cornyn is willing to put his head up trump's ass for his endorsement. Now he's flipping on the filibuster to pass the SAVE Act and disenfranchise millions of voters. www.nbcnews.com/politics/ele...

I can't even find the words to express how repugnant and despicable this post is.

People who spew such Islamophobic bile don't belong in the United States Congress. The job of elected officials is to combat hate, not fan its flames. (1/2)

Here's a new one: ICE detained a man in Utah who had been arrested for a suspected drug sale ... that turned out to be dried pinto beans.

Utah case was dropped but the man, who arrived in US as a minor and has deferred action, was transfered to ICE.

Trump continues to threaten to cut off trade with Spain to “punish” them.

But the U.S. runs a $4.8 billion trade SURPLUS with Spain. We are winning that deal. And Spain is in the EU, so you can’t just target Spain alone.

This isn’t America First, it’s America Confused.

Justice Department’s Ed Martin faces disciplinary proceedings from the D.C. Bar Last month, Martin was demoted and sidelined within the administration. If he thought that was the worst of his troubles, he’s now learning otherwise.

MS NOW confirms: Far-right activist Ed Martin is facing an ethics investigation from the D.C. Bar.

The Office of Disciplinary Counsel — the enforcement arm for the local DC Bar — alleges that Martin violated ethics rules in early 2025 by making threats against Georgetown University Law Center.

UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE.

In their remarks, neither Pete Hegseth nor Dan Caine this morning addressed the girls school that was bombed.

They did not get A SINGLE QUESTION about it from people they called on in the room loaded with right-wing hacks.

Hidden on page 744 of the farm bill the House Agriculture Committee passed Thursday is a provision that would condemn millions of pigs to a lifetime in gestation crates.

Rebranded the 'Save Our Bacon Act,' it's a pork-industry play to wipe out every state law banning the sale of pork from crated pigs — laws the conservative Supreme Court upheld in 2023.

Over 85% of Democrats and Republicans oppose these crates. Voters have backed ballot measures to ban them in state after state.

The pork industry knows it can't win a straight vote on this. So it's burying the provision in an 800-page bill and hoping no one notices.

Contact your senators and representative today and tell them: oppose the farm bill unless the Save Our Bacon Act is stripped out. You can reach them at http://senate.gov and http://house.gov — it takes two minutes and it matters.

This is hideous and horrible, and the people pushing for it deserve to spend the rest of their lives in a cage.
