So fascinating because during Trump I, she made a point of voting against every nominee. That’s because she was angling for the 2020 Pres race. Now she’s just D-Crypto.

18 Dems just voted *today* for Trump’s agenda. Does it make sense yet why they’re so unpopular?

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.

there is no such thing as a facially qualified trump administration appointee because the trump administration's project is facially disqualifying and i will keep saying it into the void to keep myself sane

So for a while, I thought Minecraft was just Minesweeper and was so confused by the existence of a movie based on it.

After Trump posted he’s seen β€œno reports” of Iran laying mines on the Strait of Hormuz at 3:41pmET.

Now, POTUS says β€œwithin the last few hours, we have hit, and completely destroyed, 10 inactive mine laying boats and/or ships, with more to follow!β€œ

The mixed messages continue.

I would love for a reporter with access to these senators to ask them why.

This happens all the time, and I will never understand it.

A few days ago it was 11 bombs. We’ve got bomb inflation.

Live Nation Settlement Spurs Chaos in Court - The American Prospect The deal contains a fairly useless set of conditions. More than two dozen states vow to continue fighting.

Mike Johnson declines to condemn Republicans’ anti-Muslim remarks The speaker suggested his members meant to decry β€œSharia law,” not the Muslim faith.

Shameful and totally expected

Surely the President’s task force on antisemitism will be looking into this pronto to figure out how this could have happened.

I've been reading up on recent German elections, and it's impressive how big of an ego you must have to name your breakaway political faction after yourself.

Sahra Wagenknecht named her "Die Linke, but make it racist" party the Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance.

the Dem party number is easily explained by the fact that bluesky is full of people who will crawl over broken glass to vote for Democrats in November and also hate Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries with every bone in their body

A shocking number of people responding to this video clearly did not watch the video. David is extremely opposed to the Trump administration's terrorization of immigrant communities. He is describing serious problems with the current laws which make accountability difficult.

The Corporate Miscreants Driving the Affordability Crisis These 20 firms all have something in common: Their CEOs get paid millions, their workers are being pushed onto public assistance, and voters are fed up with them.

Brian Niccol of Starbucks took home the award for the most nonsensical disparity between CEO and employee income: He earns $95,801,676, while the median salary for a Starbucks employee was a mere $14,674. trib.al/RMejLDH

Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."

Killing Kids in Iran While Kids in the U.S. Go Hungry - The American Prospect For the money the U.S. is spending on war with Iran, it could be covering food stamps for 41 million people or Medicaid for 16 million people.
