A reminder - last March, republicans promised to restore $1.1B in funding to DC in exchange for funding the government, and Mike Johnson never took it up in the House.

Dear @aoc.bsky.social, please primary Chuck Schumer. NY needs a Senator that will fight for working people! So does America. Thank you.

Angus King talked a tough game with Heather Cox Richardson a while back. But when push came to shove today he demonstrated all of the principle and resolve that Susan Collins exhibits on a regular basis: zero. Guess he's got a backbone as stiff as a pipe cleaner.

Primary everyone of these Senators as soon as possible. Do not donate another cent to them.
Never forget who sold us out:

Hassan
King
Cortez-Masto
Shaheen
Kaine
Fetterman
Durbin
Rosen

Dear Tim Kaine, you spineless motherfucker: If you're ever wondering why people weren't particularly excited about making you Vice President it's because you cast votes like today's. These votes reveal exactly who you are. That person is not who we need.

If Trump's goal is create support for the Maduro regime in Latin America and other parts of the global south, sending the US military after Venezeula just might do it.

I thought Katie Porter had a pretty good chance of becoming California's next governor. She no longer has any chance. The candidacy was killed by a self-inflicted wound!

Plaintiffs: If you don't make the Administration follow the laws Congress passed to distribute $4B in foreign aid, many people will die.

SCOTUS: Fuck you, we don't care. Heil Trump.

A level-headed presidential historian like Steven Beschloss does not speak like this lightly. But he is dead on point here.

Sorry, world. There appears to be no bottom to the insanity we are allowing from the White House.

When is a denial actually an admission? When Tom Homan is speaking.
Ingraham: “They said that you took $50,000 in cash in a bag from an undercover FBI agent to help them win government contracts in Trump's second term…I imagine you want to respond to that.”

Homan: “I did nothing criminal. I did nothing illegal.”
