Thank you. Let's not create stigma when the president pushes his ignorance.

🚨LIVE BREAKING: Leader Hakeem Jeffries has just introduced a discharge petition that STRIPS all Ice funding from the DHS funding bill. The bill would FULLY FUND TSA and not provide a single penny to ICE. This is amazing. #FundDHSFreezeICE

Apparently, families who lost a loved one thanks to Donald's useless war don't want him using a photo of the draped casket to shake down his MAGA fans for cash.

Big news from Karoline Leavitt: 100% of Trump supporters support Trump

A senior policy fellow at the European Council on Foreign Relations (ECFR) warns that Israel is systematically eliminating Iranian officials most likely to negotiate a political settlement with the United States. Prolonging the war at the expense of the US and global economy.

I wonder what oil companies got in return for giving Donald the money he demanded. Billions of dollars in windfall profits from gas prices going up after Donald attacked Iran?

"Having failed to kill offshore wind through executive fiat and stymied by the courts, the Trump administration seems to have settled on a new strategy: paying companies to quit producing clean energy." — @lizdye.bsky.social

Keep up the good fight Senators.

Normally, a no vote from the chairman would end Markwayne Mullins' nomination because of the narrow margin in the committee, but John Fetterman has said he will vote yes.

It’s time to make Citizens United history. Montana — and now California — can lead the way. Here's how. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/how-california-can-neuter-citizens

KELLY: Is it accurate that Russia has gained billions of dollars in additional oil revenue due to price strikes due to the war against Iran and loosened sanctions? GABBARD: Uh, that is what has been reporting. I would defer to the Secretary of Treasury

KELLY: Is it accurate that China continues to receive preferential oil flows from Iran despite the conflict as Iran allows its own tankers to transit the strait? GABBARD: There has been some reporting of that KELLY: So sounds like it's accurate. Thank you.

House Democrats are NOT just playing along. ✅Reopen DHS, yes ❌Keep writing blank checks to ICE, no Security doesn’t require cruelty and a functioning government does not require mass detention. Time to draw the line. #FundDHSFreezeICE

oh look at that www.pew.org/en/research-...

KELLY: Were you asked to brief the president on whether Iran would close the Strait of Hormuz? GABBARD: I'm not going to comment on what the president did or didn't ask me on any topic KELLY: We're having a hard time finding out if the White House even asked if they could be briefed on something

KELLY: Do you think supporters of the president should be able to pay and receive his private national security briefings? RATCLIFFE: Regardless of what that document says, it didn't happen KELLY: This says, 'unfiltered updates.' Director Gabbard? GABBARD: I'm not familiar with that document

Trump is always walking in Pres Obama’s shadow.

“I like Ted Cruz more than most of my other colleagues like Ted Cruz. And I hate Ted Cruz.” ― Al Franken

PETERS: Would you be willing to go to the SCIF this afternoon and tell us what your supposed classified work was? MARKWAYNE MULLIN: I do not have to disclose my official travel. That was part of your documents. I complied

For my newsletter, I wrote about all the ways @katmabu.bsky.social's campaign challenged the conventional thinking about modern campaigning: www.burnsnotice.com/kat-abughaza...

Markwayne Mullin's responses to questions about his supposedly "classified" foreign trips (that he didn't disclose to the committee) are bizarrely evasive

REED: There is a tradition in Shia to honor martyrs GABBARD: That's right REED: So we might've played into their cultural biases, erroneously

The 2020 election in Arizona has been proven, audited, and settled. I’m not going to let DHS waste any more taxpayer dollars chasing conspiracy theories instead of protecting Arizonans.

Ossoff: "The American people need to know that the president is fundraising for his political campaign and his PAC using images of American service members killed in action, and it's a disgrace"

The #MatildaEffect (systematic denial of recognition to women scientists) was named after suffragist Matilda Joslyn Gage (d. #OTD in 1898). "The woman who was ahead of the women who were ahead of their time" was a writer, activist, abolitionist & Native American rights advocate. #WomensHistoryMonth

You cannot run from accountability, Greg.

Mullin is claiming that, as a Congressman, he went on a classified trip in 2016 that required him to go through “specialized training” and SERE (survival, evasion, resistance, escape) school prior to leaving. Classified trips happen, but the SERE claim is utter bullshit.

Donald Trump is lining his own damn pockets. All while he owes Illinoisans $8,679,261,600. Time to pay up.

NEW: In a win for Arizona voters, the 9th Circuit upheld a lower court dismissal of a Republican lawsuit that sought to force the state to aggressively purge its voter rolls citing baseless claims of widespread voter fraud.

OSSOFF: You sent a letter to Warner regarding your presence at the raid. Was it accurate? GABBARD: ... uh, it was accurate O: You stated your presence was 'requested by the president.' When did that happen? G: Ahhh. The day of the raid COTTON: *jumping in* Senator Ossoff, your time is expired

Meet 33-year-old Patrick Alexander of Mississippi. His bond was $250 for trespassing. He handed over four $100 bills and told them to keep the change. The bills were counterfeit, with Chinese writing on the back. He was promptly arrested again. www.wsbtv.com/news/inmate-...

HASSAN: If a masked ICE agent kills an American citizen, should local law enforcement be allowed to investigate and hold that agent accountable? MARKWAYNE MULLIN: Unfortunately, local law enforcement isn't supposed to be investigating federal HASSAN: Your answer would make ICE unaccountable

"It is not the intelligence community's responsibility to determine what is and isn't an imminent threat" holy hell that's a hell of a thing for the DNI to say

When it counted, Trump cowered.

I hope it’s windy.

Tulsi Gabbard under oath: "I was at Fulton County, Sir, at the request of the president." Feb. 5: President Trump: "She went in at Pam’s insistence.” Feb. 4: NBC's Tom Llamas: "Why is Tulsi Gabbard there?" President Trump: "I don’t know."

Gabbard...is the most dangerous person in this entire clusterf*ck. She's intelligent. She never stumbles. Her language is precise. She rarely sets traps for herself. She's cold and calculating. She willingly provides cover for a convicted felon and rapist. In short, she's bad f*cking news.

BLUMENTHAL: Shouldn't we be disgusted by an agent that fires at a citizen, no criminal record, she was charged and the charges were dismissed. Wouldn't you agree that agent should not be carrying a firearm? MARKWAYNE MULLIN: I'm not familiar with the investigation

🚨BREAKING: Hakeem Jeffries has introduced a discharge petition to fully fund DHS without funding ICE. The plan protects TSA workers and the people keeping Americans safe while denying ICE a single dollar. Republicans now have a clear choice. #FundDHSFreezeICE

SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov to TULSI: “You’re evading a question because to provide a candid response would contradict a statement from the White House.”

KIM: Do you think it's okay for ICE agents to arrest people by hospitals? MARKWAYNE MULLIN: I will always support law enforcement doing their job

As a progressive, I denounce this behavior from Cesar Chavez. We can rename the streets and California holiday honoring him to one honoring Delores Huerta who worked in the movement as a great leader and was assaulted by Chavez. Your turn to do the same for Trump, Right Wing America.

“.. I don’t think this is an economy that is going to be able to handle $100 a barrel for oil, it’s just not,” EJ Antoni told the FT. @financialtimes.com www.ft.com/content/51ad...

Rand Paul: "The fact he can't bring himself to say that we shouldn't settle political questions with violence, I think that would be a terrible example for ICE and Border Patrol"

Dolores Huerta issued a statement following the New York Times’ investigation into sexual misconduct by Cesar Chavez medium.com/@dolores_hue...
