"Whatever happened to class?"
„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.

We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way to get rid of Citizens United. Let me explain. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/how-to-get-rid-of-citizens-united

Mike Johnson is big mad that we forced through a petition and forced a vote on releasing the Epstein files.

So let’s do it again. This time to restore the ACA credits he stole from us:

John Roberts once promised to be like an umpire. He charmed both senators and the media, and for 20 years, was portrayed as a moderate institutionalist.

But today, it's become clear that the promise was a lie.

We are watching a rigged game, and Roberts set it up.
This is all John Roberts’ fault
Trump owes his corrupt and abusive reign to one man.

This is infuriating!
The Department of Education is parceling off its main offices and giving their responsibilities to other federal agencies.

Much of the funding for K-12 and colleges is being handed over to—wait for it—the Department of LABOR.

Because what else is education good for apart from producing workers?😞

Yep. Why not keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool. Open your mouth and prove it. FFS.
Karen Attiah said it best:

"[Trump] could have just kept his mouth shut about Jamal Khashoggi.
But to smear a dead journalist, while sitting with the person accused of orchestrating his murder is just vile.
Every time this [admin] hits rock bottom, a trap door seems to open.
Cretin behavior."

Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent said the reason beef prices are so high is because immigrants from South America are bringing their cattle with them as they come here and they are infected with diseases.

How do they train the cows to climb the border wall?😅

Quick, minions, come up with a more bizarre explanation! This one isn't working!
This is really ludicrous. If local police stations are (usually) so careful about preserving the integrity and chain of custody and preservation of all evidence, I should hope the Dept of Justice is equally capable. If not, then it’s time for Bondi to resign.
President Donald Trump thinks it’s possible that, some time in the past year or so, his political enemies planted damaging information about him in Jeffrey Epstein case files.

Democrats were overwhelmingly united on their shutdown demands.

Americans understood that Trump and Republicans were to blame.

Voters made it known last Tuesday that they'll elect leaders who stand up to Trump.

Democrats held the cards — and folded for no reason.

Infuriating! I am so disappointed in my senator, Tim Kaine. To think, a fully-fledged Democratic Senator, former Governor, serious candidate for Vice President, has stooped so low as to turn his back on the poorest Americans, putting politics over affordable health care.
The people showed up in the streets for "No Kings."

They did their part.

The people showed up at the polls on Tuesday.

I wonder if it has the FEDERAL ABORTION BAN added?
