“Are you really sure you want to trust Donald Trump, of all people, when he tells you that what he’s directing you to do is lawful and that you’ll be protected later as a result? That’s a pretty tenuous position for anyone to put themselves in—and Democrats should not hesitate to say so.”

I proposed an amendment to block Republicans from funneling millions of taxpayer dollars to Senators subpoenaed for January 6th. Watch how every Republican on the Rules Committee lacked the courage to intervene.

This angers me 😡

Wisconsin because you gave your Republican “fake electors” a slap on the wrist instead of prosecuting and sending them to jail, they have all been are included in tRumpleorangeskin’s next round of pardons. Shame on you AG Josh Kaul. 😡

Sanders: That is a totally meaningless gesture. You can get 100 votes here and it won't mean anything because the House is not going to take it up.

So @therickwilson.bsky.social had some thoughts about @schumer.senate.gov caving

A promise of a vote on healthcare

The Honorable Michael Luttig, who served as a federal judge and who has spoken out about Donald Trump's claims of unlimited power, joins Court Accountability Action’s Lisa Graves to talk our freedoms and his analysis of the Roberts Court's illegitimate rulings expanding Trump's powers.

Ridiculous. Cruel. Lawless.

Scary stuff for Wisconsin 😨. After you read this article, please read the MIT article linked in my comments below.

Senate Dems, do not cave. Ensuring healthcare premiums don’t surge is an 80-20 issue. They want to gut the ACA because their disdain for Obama far outweighs their concern for anyone’s health.

As of today, total number of written opinions dissenting (in whole or in part) from #SCOTUS rulings on Trump II emergency applications: Jackson: 10 Sotomayor: 6 Kagan: 5 Gorsuch: 2 Roberts: 1 Alito: 1 Kavanaugh: 1 Thomas: 0 Barrett: 0

“The jury — which feasted on sandwiches for lunch Thursday, according to a person familiar with jury lunches — deliberated the charges for several hours Wednesday and Thursday before delivering the verdict.”

this mf is on Fox damn near every day now

California voters on Tuesday overwhelmingly passed Proposition 50 in a race called by the Associated Press before a single ballot was counted—a reflection of decisive support in a victory that significantly boosts Democratic chances of retaking the House of Representatives next year.

Pennsylvania voters decided: All three Democratic justices on the state's Supreme Court will keep their seats — defeating a GOP push to flip the court and protecting a majority that defends voting rights and fair elections.

Everyone should pay careful attention to the Maine voter ID ballot measure (Prop 1). It is on track to lose -- thereby proving that the GOP claims that voter ID laws are overwhelmingly popular is a lie. Perhaps now the legacy media will stop repeating that nonsense.

For the record: I'm not tired of winning.

After a judge ordered Donald Trump to make SNAP payments, the wannabe king declared he will defy a court order and won't help people afford groceries. Trump's message to 42 million Americans: eat dirt.

tRumpleorangeskin says he doesn’t know the guy.

What keeps me so cynical is that you can't really vote to unfuck the media and its Orbanization. You can't vote the oligarchs out. Trump will be gone eventually but the money behind him won't be. The controlled media will be entrenched and it could take generations to fix.

Republicans say they will only fund 50% of SNAP.

They’re only funding SNAP at 50 percent, not because they care but because a court forced them. Half benefits mean empty fridges for families who already have nothing to spare. They’ve got trillions for billionaires and pennies for people. Call your lawmakers. Vote tomorrow, November 4.

We're suing the U.S. Department of Education for weaponizing the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program. This administration is trying to illegally cut off loan forgiveness eligibility for organizations and governments based off ideals it doesn't agree with. I'm fighting back.

In 2024, we sued JBS Foods USA for misleading New Yorkers about its carbon footprint and environmental impact.    Now, JBS USA has to pay $1.1 million for programs to help New York farmers limit greenhouse gas emissions.    Companies can't mislead people about harming our planet.

WIAA Division 4 boys state tournament At Uihlein Soccer Park, Milwaukee Thursday's semifinals No. 1 Oostburg vs. No. 4 Madison Country Day co-op, 4:30 p.m. No. 2 Sturgeon Bay vs. No. 3 Arcadia, 7 p.m. Saturday's final, 1:30 p.m.

Newsom: "He is not screwing around. He's changing the rules. He's rigging the game because he knows he'll lose if all things are equal. He did not expect California to fight fire with fire."

Donald Trump is weaponizing the Department of Justice against his political opponents. This is just the latest example. Everyone who cares about democracy and the rule of law needs to speak out loudly and clearly that this is wrong. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

🩸🩸🩸 NEVER FORGET: Instead of honoring our Constitution's key principle of a Peaceful Transfer of Power, POS Donald Trump Abused his Power on Jan 6th by inciting this violent & deadly attack on our country's Capital and should be in prison for life 🩸🩸🩸

Karoline Leavitt officially announced the "Launch of a large-scale investigation to find the people behind 'No Kings.'" I've saved her some time.

🚨BREAKING: A federal judge ruled Tuesday that Bill Essayli, a Trump-appointed Acting U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California, has been serving unlawfully in the nation’s largest federal district — the third such finding against a prosecutor installed by President Donald Trump.

Mike Johnson: "We're fighting for healthcare as well. Not just in word but in deed. We put in the one big beautiful bill, real reforms to Medicaid to make it work better." (The bill in fact cuts nearly $1 trillion from Medicaid.)

Day 19 and Republicans in Congress still haven't returned to work.

The hope is that Trumps unpopularity will eventually convince his enables to stop enabling him.

So embarrassing.. For ICE obviously ..she’s awesome 😆
