Two B52 Bombers in the air and flying close to Venezuela at the moment. It looks like one plane but one is flying above the other.

Convicted Felon Donald Trump is interfering in an election, & threatening a country if the election doesn’t go his way.

Open your eyes & grow a spine, Republicans. This mob boss needs to be removed, arrested, convicted (again) & jailed.

Some Young Republicans had their "I Love Hitler" group chat leaked. Only one person in that text thread has been fired.

Convicted Felon Donald Trump has said nothing about the texts, probably because he agrees with them.

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

It really is bizarre to me that every single member of GOP House leadership & the admin has decided their coordinated talking point this week is that the No Kings demonstrations this Sat are essentially acts of domestic terrorism. Are they that afraid of free & peaceful assembly?

Not sure why Young Republicans saying "I love Hitler" is surprising.

The party they look up to and the people they emulate have put Gestapo on U.S. streets and have given a Nazi salute at Trump's innauguration celebration.

Boom! Who’s winning the shutdown debate? THE ACA.

More Republicans than Democrats use the ACA marketplace. So the GOP’s base is relying on the same program their party is causing premiums to skyrocket.

45% of ACA marketplace enrollees are Republicans, and most live in GOP-held districts.
