Chris Murphy is doing what too many won’t—saying it out loud: Trump’s corruption isn’t a glitch, it’s the system. Corp mergers, media power, dark 💰—none of it gets this big without politicians looking the other way or cashing in.. It’s about the machine that protects him. www.vox.com/podcasts/484...

Alex Lawson (Social Security Works): "The American people don't want their hospitals to close so that some billionaire pedophile can get another golden helicopter to fly to some billionaire pedophile island." @alaw202.bsky.social

Trump: We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things.

My Front-Row Seat to the Making of Michael Wolff—and the Epstein Predators www.blueamp.co/p/my-front-r... I'm finally telling my story, folks. I was there at The Creation. Grew up in NYC. Went to their schools/parties. I'm naming names no matter the cost. It's too important..and just the beginning

A single vote for Trump in the birthright citizenship case would be as bad as anything the Court has done since Bush v. Gore. This issue has been settled for more than a century. It is the jurisprudential equivalent of asking what 2+2 is. Any answer other than 4, something is deeply, deeply wrong.

Who leaked the Noem husband story? As a betting man, I’d say an enemy of Stephen Miller’s. That’s who this is aimed at. And so my guess is Steve Bannon

SSW's @alaw202.bsky.social spoke with @klobuchar.senate.gov at the flagship #NoKings rally in St. Paul, MN : "Minnesota has been at the center of America's heartbreak. But we are, as you can see, at the center of America's courage and hope."

Still getting my brain back after No Kings, but I wanted to put up a few moments. #healthcarenotwarfare

WATCH: @alaw202.bsky.social is at the flagship No Kings protest in St. Paul, speaking with the DNC's Ken Martin.

Over 100,000 people here at the #NoKings rally in St. Paul Minnesota. This amazing crowd continues to grow. Our country belongs to all of us, not one person. Trump is forgetting this. He acts like he owns America. He does not. On this day from Alaska to Maine we remind him!

Our team is in St. Paul for the flagship No Kings rally this afternoon! WATCH: @alaw202.bsky.social speaks with @nicholsuprising.bsky.social about how we fight Trump's tyranny while building towards a brighter future.

👀 Dems hold the line as Senate passes DHS funding — without ICE and CBP. Good @punchbowlnews.bsky.social Going to be enormous pressure on Rs stuck w a reconciliation bill of Iran war + ICE/CBP funding & SAVE act - the most toxic 🗑️ bill in our recent history. Susan Collins et al are ****ed.

Another day, another brutal poll for Trump's Iran war. Amongst the more damning findings is the MASSIVE intensity gap between near universal Dem strong opposition and very soft Republican support. Full poll here: www.pewresearch.org/politics/202...

Lindsey Graham has a secret.

“Not one more cent for this reckless, illegal war" - @repcasar.bsky.social This is the energy we need from every Democrat in Congress.

What, and *not* let the Americans use our airbase for bombing raids and missile deliveries? Insane

Unfriendly reminder to anyone considering this compromise that Alex Pretti was killed by CBP. A continued blank check for their reign of terror is just as unacceptable as ICE $$$.

NEW: Russell Vought turns 50 on Thursday. To "celebrate," we're asking you to share how Trump's OMB director has made life worse for you or others, and how he has made all of us more susceptible to avoidable calamities. Vought is wrecking society in relative anonymity. Help us make him infamous.

So far, so good in 2026 PA petition season. Nice win today in Commonwealth Court against a Republican doctor running for state representative in Allegheny County whose testimony last week confirmed he didn't *quite* meet the four-year in-state residency requirement. www.pacourts.us/Storage/medi...

"Me and the next ayatollah, whoever that is." lol (more seriously, he can't help admitting again and again the fairly silly idea that got him into this war in the first place.)

Helium shortage is going to pop the AI bubble. And that is getting more clear every day.

The “main goal” of the Iran War may have changed, reports Washington Post: “Israeli officials said securing the [Strait of Hormuz] for energy shipments could become the war’s main goal now that regime change and ending Iran’s ability to obtain a nuclear weapon seem out of reach.”

Lindsey Graham on Kharg Island: "We did Iwo Jima. We can do this."

“Silly peasant there is always money for killing” — Bessent

“"President Trump's threat has now ​placed a 48-hour ticking time bomb of elevated uncertainty over markets," said IG market analyst Tony Sycamore. If the ultimatum is not walked back, oil prices will spike on Monday, he said.”

This from one of the moderate Dems in Congress is a significant- it’s a good sign that Dems will potentially be united against Trump’s regime request for more billions for their mad king’s devastating unnecessary war vs Iran. Need to stay firm & put suffocating pressure on Rs like Collins et al.

Important: Rep Adam Smith, top Democrat on Armed Services committee, says every single Dem should be against appropriating even another dime for Trump's war. "Hell no," Smith tells me. "No Dem should vote for this." On the pod, he lays out his red lines: newrepublic.com/article/2080...

🧵1/2 ‼️👀 NEW! KOAT Action 7 in NM just dropped a *great* 28-min deep dive on #Epstein's Zorro Ranch. It covers: - local political ties to Epstein - ownership of the property - who knew what in NM - employees hired there - past attempts to search Zorro - bodies buried there? 📺 youtu.be/CkXMERKapIg?...

It should be illegal for polymarket to have bets on wars and other important stuff. You should have to bet on events like a big cardboard box filled with loose turtles & strawberries and you have to predict which strawberries each turtle will eat

More of this. Thank you, @gallego.senate.gov. At a time when so many people feel unheard, choosing to lead with principle matters.

i'm sure if we blow up some more oil and gas infrastructure, then prices will come down

Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY) said "we're not going to cut Medicaid". Then, he voted to cut $1 trillion from Medicaid. Seniors and working families in his district are paying the price.

Elizabeth Warren endorses Graham Platner

Gulf Arab states are now bracing themselves for Iran’s retaliation after Israel struck Iranian facilities in South Pars field, the world’s largest gas field today. Iran listed sites in Saudi Arabia, UAE and in Qatar that it says will soon be hit in response to the Israeli attack early on Wednesday 1

DOGE must be criminally investigated for stealing the private Social Security data of hundreds of millions of Americans! @alaw202.bsky.social @hartmannreport.com

The war in Iran has already killed 13 U.S. servicemembers, 168 Iranian children, and displaced millions of Iranians, wasted billions of taxpayer dollars, and put our democracy and global order at risk. This war is illegal and unconstitutional. It must end now.

2/2 ❗🔥 Walkinshaw is on the Military & Foreign Affairs Subcommittee of House Oversight; essentially Hegseth is a joke: "He doesn’t understand the strategy, not that there is one, he doesn’t understand the tactical or operational questions. He is in way the hell over his head.” And we're at war. 😳

1/2 ‼️ 🔥 This is BRUTAL. “I see Pete Hegseth in classified briefings & I am embarrassed for him. He can do nothing beyond read the script that’s given him. He can’t answer detailed questions." — James Walkinshaw (D-VA-11) of the House Committee on Oversight & Govt Reform More... 🧾 is.gd/G4UREN

🚨 DOGE stole the Social Security data of HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of Americans– including our Social Security numbers, places and dates of birth, citizenship, race and ethnicity, and parents’ names. @alaw202.bsky.social @hartmannreport.com

The SAVE Act is an attack on the freedom to vote — one that could block millions of eligible American citizens from voting. Tell your senators to stop this attack on the freedom to vote: bit.ly/4srDVLB

This might be the greatest split-screen ever broadcast. They’ll play this in museums in future. (🎥 LCI 🇫🇷)

This snow in DC is ridiculous, go home weather you are drunk.

SSW PAC President @jonbowzerbauman.bsky.social is in Montana to hold Republicans accountable for their health care cuts. He's the keynote speaker at the @bigsky55plus.bsky.social conference tonight!

A metaphor for America. The U.S. is a nation at war where people go hungry while the Pentagon feasts on lobster. See my column in @yahoonews.com via The Hill at www.yahoo.com/news/article... @lesliemarshallshow.bsky.social @masspolprofmo.bsky.social @alaw202.bsky.social @politicussarah.bsky.social

Hormuz is closed? Nonsense, Steiner’s counterattack will open the strait of Hormuz.

We need a Democrat who will fight for democracy, reject AIPAC and stop the genocide in Gaza, end ICE’s reign of terror once and for all, and take on the billionaire class to make a good life affordable for us all. kaiforaz.com
