Warnock: Right before they passed that ugly bill that cut $1 trillion out of medicaid, the Speaker of the House joined with other legislators and said a prayer, and then they went and voted for that bill. I just want to know what was in that prayer.

"The Framers didn't intend for us to just sit back and say, 'Well we just have to wait out a criminal president who's acting continually in derogation of his duties, undermining the country and running it for his own ego and benefit.'"

We well and truly suck.

Pollitical Cartoonists keep us sane. This gem is from Mike Lukovich. Now we know where they hid the Epstein files. Trumpy should know we ain't forgetting what he did to all those kids. Not now, not ever.

Hell, YEAH, I'm watching. And suck it, Donald Trump. www.youtube.com/watch?v=awfg...

Washington Post hit with class action over ‘surveillance pricing’ scheme. Subscribers compared the practice to a grocery store selling loaves of bread for different prices based solely on customers’ shopping habits. by RYAN KNAPPENBERGER www.courthousenews.com/washington-p...

Talarico: Here's what real men don't do. They don't lie and cheat their way through life. They don't sell their soul to the highest bidder. Real men serve others, weak men serve themselves. So I welcome this debate. I don't think Paxton or Cruz are in a position to tell anyone what a real man is.

Bernie Sanders and his progressive allies are on a hot streak. The senator’s support has been instrumental in powering unknown candidates to major wins this cycle, a demonstration of how much political influence the 84-year-old progressive leader still commands.

The Albanian people have been massively protesting for several consecutive days against slumlord crook Jared Kushner and Crimestress Ivanka seizing land in their country to the sum of billions of dollars to build a trashy resort. I hope they don’t stop until their evil corrupt deal is reversed.

Pelley, who has been at CBS for more than two decades, reportedly railed against the new executive producer of "60 Minutes" in a tense staff meeting Monday.

When community members gathered at Delaney Hall in Newark to expose the inhumane conditions inside, they were met with aggression from the State Police. Turning a blind eye to human suffering and responding with force against demonstrators is a failure of leadership. @hcrichardson.bsky.social

Steyer: I have a strong anti-ICE platform. I think they are a criminal organization, and we have a very strong plan when it comes to prosecuting them. You don’t have to trust me. The head of ICE went online to say that my program is unfair to ICE agents, and I took that as a huge compliment.

Wow. That got awkward fast, even considering the participants.
