JD Vance would like you to do anything but pay attention to those abhorrent leaked texts from young Republicans that Politico covered on Tuesday. And if you do read them, he wants you to think they’re just “kids” saying “edgy, offensive” things.

No one in the GOP Hitler chat was a "kid"

We checked. Sorry, JD Vance.

(John Roberts' court is taking a chainsaw to our Constitution and voting rights)

The racist-ass Supreme Court says race can't be a factor for college admissions or redistricting but racial profiling is perfectly fine for ICE to bash brown and Black skulls.

F this corrupt institution.

Expand the Court.

So does somebody decide which court orders ICE will follow, or is it just random?

Yesterday ICE followed the order & removed the fence around the Broadview facility.

AND they violated the judge’s order prohibiting use of chemical agents against peaceful protesters & journos. 🤯

Spare us the patronizing 'bless her heart' comments. It took Speaker Johnson less than 24 hours to swear in his Republican colleagues.

He’s stalling because he’s scared of his puppet master Donald Trump.

This delay isn’t about process. It’s about obstruction. #ReleaseTheFiles

Bill Ackman puts his nose in everyone's business..he's worse than an old biddy. He's rich, so he thinks he should magnify his voice and his vote. Just because he's rich, his voice and vote shouldn't count more than yours
