Mockler: We saw this Nazi group chat which I’m sure you condemn right?

Kolvet: We can talk about it

Mockler: Do you condemn it?

Kolvet: I want to talk about it

Mockler: So, you’re like JD Vance? You won’t condemn this?

The propaganda spewing from Trump's departments and agencies blaming Democrats for the government shutdown is blatantly illegal. We have the Hatch Act for a reason. Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-trump-regime-is-wildly-violating

I sat in the room with Mike Johnson as Epstein’s survivors told their stories. He looked them in the eyes and promised accountability.

Now he’s blocking the vote to release the files. Swear in Congresswoman-elect @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social—now.

Now we are up to $40 billion for Argentina. Can anyone stop Bessent from unilaterally sending unlimited amounts of our money to South America? And Republicans won’t even negotiate with the Democrats on health care for Americans. Where is Congress?

Hey Mike Johnson – the more you facilitate a cover-up and do everything in your power to prevent the release of the Epstein files – the more your constituents, the American public, and the whole world are going to believe you are guilty of the exact same types of crimes as Jeffrey Epstein.

Q: “Most hospitals + people who will lose insurance are in rural areas. If Trump & Republicans are so intent on sticking it to their own voters, why not let them?”

@aoc.bsky.social : “That’s the difference between us & Trump. I don’t care if you voted for me, I want you to have health care.”

The plaque honoring the law enforcement officers who responded to the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, which was commissioned by Congress in 2022, remains in storage. Mike Johnson has refused to place it on the wall, as was intended. That "deed" speaks pretty loudly.

Unlike Trump, I don't care if someone likes me or not. That will never change the fact that I'm going to fight for them to have health care.

I want MAGA to have health care. I want MAGA to be paid a living wage.

It was only eight days ago that 300 federal agents descended on a Chicago apartment complex at 3:00AM on a Tuesday morning, zip tying its residents (some of them CHILDREN) and denying them the opportunity call a lawyer.

Don't let the never-ending shit-news-cycle get in your way of remembering that.

Let's go back and start here:

No-one of any honest position in gov't around the world would trust a "deal" negotiated w/a country that took a bone saw to one of their important countrymen, killed him & then handed 2 billion dollars to the PRESIDENTS' son-in-law.
And yet...ppl STILL believe Trump.

Kaine: "We should not be allowing the president to create a secret enemies list and make the unilateral decision about whether to kill people without sharing that information at least with the Armed Service and Intel committees. So this is very troubling."

Free speech advocates says he doesn’t want Charlie Kirk critics to ‘have free speech’
