Holy shit.

A lot of people have suggested this, but I don’t think Lieu would make the allegation unless he had seen some evidence.

The President is lying to the public:

1) For the past century, the federal government has been responsible for the Potomac Interceptor – not Maryland. The sewage pipe is on federal land.

“.. We could spend the whole day reacting to every buffoonish spectacle coming out of the White House, but that's exactly what they want: for us to lose focus …
Don't be distracted by the noise; watch what they are doing to your rights while you stare at the screen.”

Dan Koh: In the last year, this leader tried to take sovereign land unilaterally, use the justice system to jail enemies, & actively shut down independent media voices

That was Vladimir Putin—the fact that so many ppl thought I was describing Trump right now shows how much our democracy is at risk

History teaches us that the greatest harms often begin with the quiet acceptance of the unacceptable. I have seen where that road leads, and I will not walk it again without resistance.

The video file is too big to upload directly, so here it is on YouTube. In the spirit of Woody Guthrie, we’re keeping this song alive and sending it out from the woods of Massachusetts to the streets of Minneapolis and everywhere that communities are gathering together in solidarity and resistance

I just heard someone say on TV that use of the term "concentration camps" to describe ICE facilities was "very strong language."
I think ICE's concentration camps are very strong abuses of human rights.

Rep. Angie Craig: "The attacks on Black and brown people in Minnesota have been egregious. At the end of the day, what they wanted out of Minnesota was for us to riot. I think this will go down in American history as one of the greatest examples of peaceful resistance from an entire community."

The Grand Canyon is one of the most treasured places in the world and an important part of Arizona’s economy, but wildfires devastated much of the North Rim last year. My new bill will help speed up the rebuilding and revitalization efforts.

The Epstein class is facing a no win scenario:

Complete collapse by the release of the files or prepare for the pitchforks of a people tired of being under their thumb.

The day is coming, folks. The day is coming.

Hey there Pam Bondi if you have nothing to hide why were you tracking what congressmen were searching on the Epstein files?

Why uh…. Why…. Why so nervous?

Walz: "The federal government needs to pay for what they broke here. There's going to be accountability on things that happened, but one of them is the incredible and immense cost borne by the people of this state. The federal government needs to be responsible."

If Pam Bondi had behaved in a court of law like she did and yesterday‘s hearing, she would’ve been in a jail cell in less than five minutes. That’s how corrupt you have to be to protect Donald Trump.p

In just a few moments, I will vote against the so-called SAVE America Act and I am a strong no. That's because this bill would place unnecessary burdens on millions of women and eligible citizens to register to vote and make their voices heard. It is un-American & undermines our democracy.

Jasmine Crockett on Pam Bondi: “I’m not going to ask any questions of this witness bc she’s made it clear she won’t answer questions — I completely don’t get how you’re sitting at the top of DOJ bc you’re clearly not good at your job — You’ve spent more money arresting journalists than pedophiles”
