I don't understand why I see things so differently. I see a health insurance industry that thinks it's entitled to charge people 1/3rd of their income for healthcare. That industry shouldn't be "fixed." It should be burned to the ground and its ashes pissed on.

"Part of what frustrates me is how much people just didn't listen to the things that he said he was going to do." "He was telling us he would do these things....he's a sick man."

Under Title 32 USC, The Adjutant General (TAG) in each state is the military commander for both the Army and Air National Guard for that state and usually coordinates directly with the governor for domestic operations including emergency response.

Oregon National Guard Adjutant General, General Gronewold says if they are federalized, that he will advise the Title 10 commander to utilize National Guard Troops to PROTECT protesters at ICE facilities. This is the right answer.

Make America Great Again… GTF Out!

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat. For the crime of … complaining about government policy. Core 1A speech. With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

Why didn't Democratic Senators ask Pam Bondi why she didn't prosecute Jeffrey Epstein when she was Florida's Attorney General from 2011 to 2019 at the very time he was running his child sex ring in Florida?!!

Oh look the party that screams “family values” every five minutes is silent when one of their megachurch darlings pleads guilty to child sex abuse. But they’ll trip over themselves to ban books and attack drag shows. Tells you everything you need to know.

Everything they are doing & saying right now is very obviously meant to clear the way for mass repressive violence. Fact checking is not going to do shit. Talking about kitchen table issues is not going to do shit. We need open, unapologetic defiance & conflict.

The scenes out of Chicago should outrage us all. These federal agents are out of control, committing senseless acts of violence & putting everyone at risk.   American citizens are being detained & brutalized.   This kind of immigration "enforcement" shouldn't be acceptable to anyone.

Netanyahu openly says he "supports the idea of a 'Greater Israel,' which is a batshit crazy idea, which some people used to say was a conspiracy theory on the far right." Me to Piers Morgan on his show today. Full show: youtube.com/watch?v=Kmdm...

MAGA is big mad at Zach Bryan for not being a fan of fascism. They’re mad at Bad Bunny because they don’t know where Puerto Rico is. Now I really want Bunny to invite Zach to perform with him at the Super Bowl.

In the last few weeks we’ve watched ICE: Pepper spray the Portland frog Tear gas members of Chicago PD Zip tie children Grab Chicagoans from their beds in dead of the night Open fire on a civilian in her car Yet they say immigrants are the threat. Protesters are the threat. We know better.

Sen. PADILLA: This Justice Department fired a 15-year career prosecutor who put away sex traffickers and transnational terrorists. She was marched out of her office. Why? Because she had the audacity to remind Border Patrol that it should follow court orders.

It's interesting that Bondi can release records of former special counsel Jack Smith, but can't release the Epstein files. It's interesting how Bondi can indict Comey for a "supposed" lie, but not indict Homan for taking $50,000. DISBAR BONDI!

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s. This is what real journalism should do — hold power to account, not capitulate to it.

glad to be born at a time when i got to see what life was like before the internet and will be dead before AI completely destroys humanity

SEN. KENNEDY: “.. it’s not up to the president. I mean, his opinion matters, but Congress has got to appropriate the money. Read the Constitution.” 🤡 @mediaite.com www.mediaite.com/politics/rep...

FBI snagged Sen. Ron Johnson's phone logs in their Jan. 6 probe, eyeing his push for bogus electors to Pence. Now he whines about "shocking" surveillance from the same crew he accuses of threatening democracy. #Jan6

The same kind of people who once hunted escaped slaves now wear ICE badges. History didn’t vanish, it rebranded.

The phone number for the U.S. Capitol switchboard is (202) 224-3121. #epstein

"Speaker Mike Johnson’s abrupt closure of the House may have more to do with stalling a congressional investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation than previously reported, and appears to have been a direct response to the Treasury’s surrender of Epstein’s financial records."

Straight-talking Mike Johnson struggles to look at the camera when claiming to care about healthcare

NEW: For the last several months, I have written and spoken regularly about the rise of authoritarianism in the United States. This is not something I ever envisioned for myself — and it is certainly not something my ancestors envisioned for their great grandchildren.

RAJU: You swore in 2 GOP members during pro forma session. Why not swear in Grijalva? Does it have to do w/her signature on Epstein petition? JOHNSON: It has nothing to do with that. We'll swear her in when everybody is back R: Why not now? J: Uh - we'll schedule it, I guess, as soon as she wants

Yeah, but my history book didn’t tell me that Taylor would drop a new album and sell merch at Target while kids are zip-tied together in Chicago and the Army is sent to Portland and coffee is unaffordable to the masses and I would still need to make supper every night…

Soybean Farmer: So now I've got a tariff war that's killing my market. I don't have any money from grain we're sending to other countries for USAID. I mean, I've got a compound problem. I don't know how you plan for next year because we don't know where we're at.

She is not doing well

Hey Senators Murkowski, Cassidy, Collins, Thune, Tillis, Capito, Please explain, like we're as stupid as you wish we were, why you are letting Stephen Miller act as a shadow president to enact a deeply fascist agenda which is careening towards martial law? Thanks. #GOPBetrayedAmerica #RemoveTrump

youtube.com/post/UgkxGn_... YES! @governor.ny.gov @governor.ca.gov @govwesmoore.bsky.social @govpritzker.illinois.gov And ALL Blue Governor states NEED TO DO THE SAME IMMEDIATELY!

Country legend Zach Bryan has released a song that puts country over his own bank account. The backlash from country fans will be massive- they’ll force him off country radio like they did to the Dixie Chicks but he doesn’t need radio access anymore American hero 🇺🇸

I wouldn’t advise anyone in Portland to walk your dog near this building.

The condescension of two-bit Attorney General Pamela Jo Bondi today underscores that the only thing this administration excels at is a complete lack of self-awareness.

AG Bondi, here’s that correction you requested.

NEW: "No career prosecutor was willing to present the case to a grand jury on Halligan's behalf." lol WONDER WHY! abcnews.go.com/US/special-c...

When the GOP loses the crazies. 😳

Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in. Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators. The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.
