Chris Murphy: "There's a lot of history that has taken place in the East Wing & it was just destroyed without any conversation in the public, without any consent of Congress. It's absolutely illegal. That visual is powerful b/c you're watching destruction of the rule of law as those walls come down"

AZ AG Mayes: We have people in Arizona who are being actively harmed by Mike Johnson playing politics and apparently trying to protect the Epstein files. That’s not okay. We’re going to fight as hard as we can to put an end to it and to get Adelita Grijalva sworn in.

Is Spotify running ICE recruitment ads? Here are the facts

The advertising "is part of a broad campaign the US government is running" across various platforms — not just Spotify, a spokesperson told Snopes.

remember when Donald Trump claimed he had a 'peace plan' for Gaza, and it turned out to actually be the concept of a sketch of a sort of a cease fire? remember how our press shit itself lauding Trump as legendary peacemaking genius? that was fun, wasn't it? the cease fire didn't even last a week

Nicotine is an acetylcholine agonist that activates acetylcholine receptors, including those in the vagus nerve, which can help regulate the parasympathetic nervous system which controls involuntary functions such as digestion, heart rate, and relaxation responses.

Excerpt from Common Dreams article: “We don’t know how Trumpism will fall. We’re in an unprecedented moment in our political history, where the normal checks and balances have failed; it’s unclear if our electoral system will survive intact enough to allow democracy to operate in any way. But for the moment our task is to drive down Trump’s popularity, relentlessly. Their greatest hope is that there will be violence they can exploit; watch out this weekend for agents provocateurs, and pay attention to the people at protests who have been trained in deescalation. But show up—right now that’s our best way to keep building the opposition.”

“… a chubby frog presents a messaging problem for Trump, for different reasons. He hates being laughed at, which is a good indication that he recognizes the power of laughter; this is the classic “emperor has no clothes” moment.“

An Inflatable Frog Is the Hero the Anti-Trump Resistance Needs | Common Dreams

Trump hates being laughed at, so it's a good strategy to show how ridiculous his contention that cities are dangerous hellholes protected by dimwitted blue mayors really is.

It’s painfully clear. By refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva, Speaker Johnson’s covering up Jeffrey Epstein’s global sex-trafficking ring.

Hey GOP: Bring back the House, cancel your health care cuts, reopen the government and release the files.

Today, I convened a group of former military generals and veterans to hear perspectives on deploying troops in American cities.

Their commitment is to our nation. That’s why they’re speaking out against what the President's doing as uncalled-for, unprecedented, and un-American.
