It’s gonna be a pretty solid weekend if social media is flooded with clips of Laura Loomer getting her ass handed to her in-person by Indian journalists. Shout-out to Rajdeep Sardesai for kicking off the festivities.

Americans are dying so that Kushner can make money

ICE agents reveal daily arrest quotas and surveillance app in rare court testimony Under oath, officers said they were told to make eight arrests a day and given special tech to help choose ‘targets’

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.

The SAVE America Act is a voter suppression scam. It would take away the rights of working people to make their voices heard at the ballot box.

The Senate must reject this bill.

Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."

It’s almost like Putin and Netanyahu control our foreign policy.

A jump of 10 points really should show the rest of the GOP what an albatross 🍊💩 is to them.

Let us hope he drags them down so far that the MAGA movement becomes a footnote in history like the WHIGS are from the mid 1800’s. That is, if we survive as a nation the next 3 years.

Part of the problem is that politicians think that Americans are just really stupid.... Another part of the problem is that politicians may not be wrong there

Senator Tuberville on x writing a response to the @endwokeness account Original tweet from @EndWokeness - “less than 25 years apart” Image 1 - the twin towers as they are hit by a the planes on 9/11/2001 Image 2 - Mayor Mamdani sitting on a prayer rug while hosting an Iftar at city hall Quote tweet from Senator Tuberville - “the enemy is inside the gates.”

Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.

Tweet from Congressman Randy Fine: "We need more Islamophobia, not less. Fear of Islam is rational."

Truly one of the worst human beings serving in Congress today. And that is really saying something.

Biggest block party ever?

See how this works?

Sickening racism from a sitting senator. The Ogles hate is contagious.

You’re either calling this out or normalizing it. There’s no third option.

If your so-called president is getting richer during his term while you are getting poorer, you may want to vote accordingly next time.....

...if you get a chance to.

Ossoff: "The president appears increasingly to have lost touch with reality. That is deeply concerning when you have a a cabinet much more concerned with winning his favor than giving good advice & the nation now plunged into war. It speaks to the necessity of winning these midterms in a landslide."

According to the RNC's new legal theory aimed at throwing out mail-in ballots, In 2000, Gore won! 👀

Spain MEP Irene Montero: “Send your son, Donald Trump — If you want war, send your own people to the front line. We in Spain want our children, our daughters, & our loved ones at home, safe. We don’t want war — those who want war should send their own children”
