Surprising nobody, Russia is unable to launch its nuclear capable Oreshnik missile as it explodes mid launch like a Space X rocket.

With all these extrajudicial boat murders, we have a president who is not only an adjudicated rapist, but also an unapprehended serial killer.

In the face of this cruel government shutdown, we’re taking another significant step to protect Maryland families and children:

I’ve signed an executive order releasing $62 million to help Marylanders who rely on SNAP benefits put food on the table.

Grijalva: I do think that Speaker Johnson misplayed his hand.

There are people all over this nation who were out there with signs that said, “Swear her in.” They wouldn’t have even known about me otherwise.

Thank you for highlighting how corrupt the system you’re protecting really is.

Unlike other projects the Trump administration has canceled during the shutdown to punish Democratic-leaning places, disruption to SNAP will touch every corner of the country, including many communities that support the president.

NEW: Almost six weeks in, Trump's shutdown strategy is clear: He's willing to stretch the budget, but only for political gain and retribution. For others, like the 42 million on food stamps, he has offered no relief, and sought to enact cuts Congress did not approve

The president of the United States thinks asylum-seekers come from mental asylums.

He says it in almost every interview where the topic of migration comes up.

How is this not 25th Amendment territory? How is he not an embarrassment to this entire country?

Free and fair elections are good for business. Having a stable rule of law is important to the economy. Not having people afraid to go to work because they might be beaten up or disappeared is essential to a productive workforce. Democracy is essential for a strong economy.

In his infinite arrogance the Fuhrer still believes he carries weight in New York, where he was convicted of 34 felonies and held liable for financial fraud and rape.

Where he bragged about having the tallest building after 9/11.

He might’ve forgotten. His brain is mush.

New Yorkers remember.
