Trump employs stochastic rhetoric. You never know what he will go through with or what he doesn’t.

This enables his supporters to say “that’s just Trump being Trump!” And makes it impossible to warn or prepare fully for his actions and requires us to “wait” to see what he actually “does, not says”.

ICE agents kidnapped a US citizen in Chicago because she didn’t “look” American to them. She even had her US passport on her. 🤬

Now that Trump has delegated his preposterous politicking for a Nobel Peace Prize to sycophants, he can finally get around to declaring unilateral war on Venezuela, a war crime, as he murders Colombian civilians at sea, another war crime, and endorses collective punishment in Gaza, another war crime

Mike Johnson called us back from July 4 recess on 7/3 so he could gut Americans’ healthcare in the Big Ugly bill. Since then, he has only had the House in session for 19 of the subsequent 104 days. That’s how we ended up here.

Finally, some common sense from Oklahoma education.

Ryan Walters turned classrooms into culture war battlegrounds. Reversing his Bible mandate isn’t “anti-religion,” it’s accepting the fact that the Bible is not a history book!

Schools should teach, not preach.

ABOLISH ICE and EXPAND THE SUPREME COURT should be mainstream Democratic promises and talking points.

But timidity and civility will rule the day and screw the rest of us and this country in the end.

It should be a litmus test for Democratic presidential primary candidates whether they will restore the White House and DC public properties to exactly the way they were before the Palm Beach lounge lizard decided to turn it into Mar-a-Lago meets 1936 Nuremberg.

AOC: The problem is that the Trump administration, they think that destroying our health care, making sure that housing is too expensive to live in, that jacking up the cost of our groceries—they think all of this is about hurting Democrats. What they are doing is hurting Americans

Russian propagandist Solovyev continues to entertain us. He went on X,saw my post and Polish FM Sikorski's comment,then started crying and screaming.He is still very upset about the villa in Italy that was taken away from him

By the way,Solovyev's 'media presence' is by now an artificial phenomenon

What would it even look like? How do you define “on our behalf”? Legislation for this doesn’t make any sense if you ask me.

This is what their oath of office is for.

Good afternoon to everyone but especially Janai Nelson, president and director-counsel of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, who argued her heart out today in an effort to stop the Supreme Court from destroying the Voting Rights Act.
