I was taking a short video of Nia playing fetch, to send to my cousins, when she came up with a new one to add to her impressive repertoire. Back ‘atcha!

I turned off the Mariners game and turned on CNN’s town hall with AOC and Bernie Sanders.

It’s soooo, so clear that Bernie is setting her up for a presidential run. Predictably, they’re killing it. I seriously can’t wait for her to do this.

Someone needs to remind Leader Jeffries that Johnson is going to lie and gaslight his way through this entire debate, and Jeffries needs to call him out on it EVERY SINGLE TIME.

Call a lie a lie, and present the facts. (I know, it's exhausting.)

But don't sit there and let him lie unchallenged.
House Speaker Mike Johnson and House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries accepted an invitation to appear on C-SPAN together, though a date is not yet finalized, according to a release from C-SPAN.

This Supreme Court case in Louisiana is about one thing, and one thing only: reinstituting Jim Crow by way of ensuring that Black Americans are taxed without receiving representation in Congress.

Everything else is noise and bluster.

This stolen Supreme Court is going to send us back to the 1860s.

Two class-action lawsuits accuse Bank of America and Bank of New York of maintaining relationships with Jeffrey Epstein and failing to report suspicious activities until after his death. The suits allege his trafficking operation wouldn’t have existed without the special treatment provided to him.

Americans, you deserve so much better than this.

Let’s make sure Saturday is just the beginning.

We will overwhelm this regime with dignity and a fierce, non-violent “NO!”

WATCH: “This is not a both sides thing. Let’s not lie about what’s happening.”

- Senator @ericschmittmo 🤥 , lying about what’s happening as @senatordurbin calls for toning down the rhetoric

(Again: Right-wing violence has been far more prevalent)

UK media. Ask Labour about the Chinese, don't ask Farage about Russian bribes, or mysterious bankrolling of Leave. If you do minimise it, laugh it off. Repeat the process for Russian money swilling through the Tory party.
The majority of the British media stinks.
It's as bent as a corkscrew.

Emmanuel Garcia, the 15 year old autistic boy who went missing & landed in ICE custody, is still not home with his mother

He disappeared last week & Houston PD handed him over to ICE

A disabled child was given to ICE instead of attempting to contact his family

Eugenics & bigotry go hand in hand

Right now? State courts…ymmv.

Statutes on crimes of abuse under color of law have 10 year limitations in many cases…advice to the ICE Incels, LEO Federal protection only lasts as long as your current administration wants to protect you…

You need to read past the Nuremberg Rallies to the trials…

Sunny Hostin to Cheryl Hines: "The problem is that your husband is the least qualified HHS head that we've had in history. I think that's very dangerous. He has spread a lot of misinformation, chaos, and confusion."

Exhibit A for why proper oversight is essential

Canada's 🇨🇦 CSIS mischaracterized its use of undisclosed secret surveillance tech. Report is heavily redacted but...

The technology introduced “a significant expansion of collection capabilities and operational risks.”

Matt? Mr Taibi? Maaathew! Wherever ARE you?
I thought they said it was wrong for an administration to ask a social media platform to take stuff down.
One Lie After Another, now streaming.
Representative-elect Grijalva DOES NOT WANT "pomp-and-circumstance."

Since her victory weeks ago, she has been VERY clear that all she wants is for Speaker Johnson to swear her in so she can sign the Epstein petition and begin serving Arizona's 7th District.

Americans are sick of the excuses.
Closet Johnson is exasperated.
FOX: You said last week that you would swear in Grijalva whenever she wants. She has written a letter to your office. You have not sworn her in. Doesn't your resistance add fuel to the fire that this is about Epstein?

MIKE JOHNSON: No. This is another partisan manufactured thing
