If the Dems who win in the 2026 midterms get squeamish about prosecuting this administration, we'll need to elect a bunch of new people running on Nuremberg shit for 2028. This isn't a joke. It's the law. It's justice. Biden let Trump back in the WH and this happened because Joe didn't do his job

Yep! And even if I don't hate anything on the plate, I always leave my favorite for the last few bites.

Coons: "Right now, the clearest winner from this war in Iran is Russia. It's stunning that President Trump is on the phone with Vladimir Putin and spending more time consulting with him than he is with Congress and the American people."

More than 2 million American women get married each year- most change their names. Not to mention the number who move is even more. This is not some β€œsmall fraction” of people.

It's so bad that we've reached a point where members of Congress casually discuss stripping citizenship from and deporting people because they don't like their views.

If an official commits an impeachable offense and nobody acts to impeach, it is no longer an impeachable offense.

People who oppose impeachment as β€œpointless” because it seems unlikely to result in removal do not understand this very simple point and seem unwilling to even try to understand it.

"Human writing often includes some clunky phrases, like this passage from Cormac McCarthy's Blood Meridian, caused by the author's aversion to punctuation: 'As well ask men what they think of stone.'"

This is the stupidest g.d. thing I have read all day.

Our president is one of the most arrogantly stupid leaders in the history of this planet.

My hottest take as a public librarian:

If you don't enjoy reading, you don't have to read. Spend your precious free time / hobby time doing something you actually enjoy.

I like the way some countries have Crisis of Confidence procedures that automatically trigger a vote for new government. WE NEED THAT HERE! We'll never be safe from GOP majority in government.

I've been on a roll with these type lately, and it's very frustrating.

I had a relative who started giving people ball point pens when her dementia got really bad, don't know what made me think of that just now

Somebody should play along and get Trump to start pulling back hard, then suddenly relax and watch him fall on his pasty ass. That would be some funny shit.

There are TWO strong Democratic candidates for Ogles' CD5 seat, which is the most flippable in Tennessee, especially given what happened in December's CD7 special election.

Normally when someone is this deluded, you'd ask them to name the president to see how far they're really gone

Hello, my middle grade novel The Unfinished Business came out last week.

I worked really hard on it, and I hope you'll check it out! It's available wherever you get your books.

There’s never enough money for schools or healthcare or veterans.

But there’s always enough money to bomb people on the other side of the world.

We can support the democracy movement in Iran without bombing innocent schoolchildren and sending our American troops off to die.

The DOJ has exposed 21 victims names in its release of the Epstein Files. They sure worked hard to redact the criminals though. Disgusting.

This puts me at 10 people released. I filed my 1st habeas petition 29 days ago. I am an incredibly small-time, nobody lawyer who knew nothing about immigration law the day I submitted that case. I barely know any more today. I had never sued the federal government and now I've beaten them 10 times.

NBC’s Richard Engel: β€œThe White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”

If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected β€” young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! β€” and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.
