Tim Walz dropping out of the race for a third term is the direct result of Republican threats to kill his entire family after they had already murdered one of his state’s representative and her husband. — Anyone still believe both parties are the same?

Jeffries: "The Constitution isn't a matter of inconvenience. It is a requirement. George Washington in his farewell address to the nation made clear that the Constitution is sacredly obligatory upon all. That means everybody. There is no Trump exception."

Fox’s Martha Maccallum: “100,000 Americans die of overdoses - most of those drugs coming from Venezuela and other places…” Rep Jason Crow: “That’s actually not true. The majority of those deaths come from Meth and Fentanyl, almost none of that comes from Venezuela.”

"Government by organized money is just as dangerous as Government by organized mob." —FDR, 1936

It’s not US soldiers or the US military that keeps the world safe, it is Ukrainian troops fighting against Russian fascism while the US cowards backstab them at every chance.

TAPPER: Can you rule out the US is going to take Greenland by force? MILLER: Greenland should be part of the US. By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? The US is the power of NATO T: So force is on the table? M: Nobody is gonna fight the US militarily over future of Greenland

MILLER: The US is using its military to secure our interests unapologetically in our hemisphere. We're a superpower. It's absurd we'd allow a nation in our backyard to become a supplier of resources to our adversaries TAPPER: Sovereign countries shouldn't be able to do what they want? M: *yells*

this is small comfort given he has state power and i don’t but i am struck by what an obviously weak and fragile man miller is. a blubbering piss baby whose entire affect and personality is an attempt to make up for his profound feelings of inadequacy

This is horrendous ! How can ill people in the USA get proper health care with those ridiculously high prices ?? #TrumpIsKillingAmericans

Fortunately, we are currently healthy, so we took a calculated risk that our healthcare needs will be less than $36K in 2026. Many have chronic conditions and can’t take that risk. We are failing on healthcare in this country.

Hospital ERs will be crowded with people who can’t afford consistent care and wait until they’re in dire shape to get help. This at a time when many hospitals will end up closing their doors. Everyone knows that healthcare at the back end is exponentially more expensive than preventative care. 🤬

My God 😳

Insurance premiums doubled overnight for millions of Americans on January 1. Over half of ACA marketplace enrollees say they’d go without insurance if premiums double. I’m one of them. We canceled our policy. $3,000 a month isn’t health care. It’s a shakedown. @democrats.senate.gov

As of this week, millions of Americans are now paying thousands more for health insurance. If the President and Congressional GOP think Washington has the capacity to "run" Venezuela right now, why won't they fix the insurance cost crisis they've created here at home?

Minnesota has to come first - always. Today, I’m proud of the work we’ve done to make Minnesota the best place to live and raise kids. I’ve decided to step out of the race and let others worry about the election while I focus on the work.

Are you worried things can’t get stupider? I assure you they can and will

So Trump successfully bullied a good man and his family. Because winning over Harris Walz wasn’t enough. Trump wanted to destroy him. Walz is making the right decision for his family. But the success of Trump’s grotesque bullying campaign is yet another frightening step in our national descent.

in how many "law enforcement operations" are damn near 100 people killed?

Dems, release another batch of the Epstein Files on Monday. Don't let Trump and Republicans distract. Keep him cornered.

Fun Fact: If Maduro was in the Epstein files he'd be safe at home in his bed right now.

So we conducted regime change with no clear plan for what happens after. Seems like we’ve done this a few times before.

PLATNER: “The illegal attack on Venezuela is not foreign policy — it’s gangsterism on an international scale.”

This new war in Venezuela is deeply corrupt. I will never vote to send someone’s son or daughter to war to make oil executives richer.

Trump just issued threats to attack Mexico, Cuba, Colombia, Iran, Venezuela (again), and Greenland (which would be an attack on all of NATO).

Something happened in Venezuela that most coverage is missing. Once you see it, you can’t unsee the implications.👇 www.jackhopkinsnow.com

I suspect two of the hot words for 2026 will be “impeach” and “remove”

REP. GOLDMAN: “Trump promised oil executives if they gave him $1 billion for his campaign, he’d do right by them. They gave about $500 million. This is a massive gift in violation of international law, essentially just co-opting an entire country's natural resources for the benefit of 🇺🇸 Companies.”

So when can you start

Jack Smith is a man of honor and moral conviction. He is the kind of person we as a nation must become like once more.

Paging Tulsi Gabbard circa 2019.

How pathetic.

Given our incredible track record of regime changes e.g. Iran (wtf to fubar), Iraq (Saddam to ISIS), Afghanistan (Taliban to Taliban), I’m sure Venezuelans feel pretty good about their prospects.

Not to get too political but it would be nice if everything would stop getting worse.

Rep. @sethmoulton.bsky.social : "Is anyone going to just stop for a second and be honest? This is insane. What the hell are we doing? We've got a lot of problems in America today, and invading, occupying, running Venezuela does not solve any of them."

Trump says we need to go after drug cartels. Meanwhile, he disbanded a DOJ task force that took them on. And he pardoned a former Honduran president convicted of drug trafficking. Trump doesn't care about drugs — he wants to be able to declare war on anyone he labels an enemy. It's a power grab.

More reaction to Maduro’s “arrest”

Trump is a damned war criminal. Where is our Congress??? John Roberts & his SCOTUS have done so much damage by declaring a president immune from our laws. As a citizen I do not agree with this Venezuelan war of Trump's. Stay focused. This is all to avoid the Epstein files, videos and photos.

LOL

You were saying?

The Convicted Felon who has taken at least three cognitive exams & falls asleep during official meetings just bombed Venezuela and kidnapped its leader.

The irony in all this is Trump wants to rule like Maduro…

Good morning. You are waking up to the irony of a convicted felon president, who spent years avoiding his own criminal trials, capturing the president of a sovereign nation and holding him captive for criminal trials.

Ah, the fucking hypocrisy.

So the US has just unilaterally invaded a country and kidnapped its leader without even bothering with a pretext this time?

Trump pardoned & released the drug king-pin who was a former president of Honduras But has now kidnapped Venezuela's Maduro calling him a drug king-pin But really... it's about regime change and the oil. It has nothing to do w/ Fentanyl This is OUTRAGEOUS! 🎁: www.nytimes.com/2025/07/30/c...

January 3rd and I am speechless after waking up and hearing that Trump said President Maduro and his wife were captured in ‘large scale strike against Venezuela and flown out of the country This is not normal behavior And wrong on so many levels Democracy must prevail

Wait, what?

If Xi Jinping invaded Taiwan right now, and toppled the president there, on what grounds would the United States object? Or have any credibility to say anything?
