Why can’t Gov Andy Beshear just appoint a new Senator to replace Mitch McConnell unless they provide proof of life? Just appoint someone and have the GOP fight it after like they do to Dems.

Imagine if a woman president spent most her time raving and crying about an election she lost 6 years ago. Emotional. Unstable. Hysterical. Unfit to lead.

Trump’s rambling speech went down like a lead balloon with the president's base.

Rather than rage at Democrats for reading the room, consider raging at Netanyahu for failing to read the global room with respect to his leadership. Links below to support three points above. /6

support — including young Americans‘ support. Americans cannot unsee what they see online. I am not saying that I agree with the votes on the Massie amendment but I am sure as heck not surprised given how Americans (outside of our fellow Jews of a certain age and up) view Israel. /5

Why would, ahead of the midterms, Democrats buck the interests of the American people, the actual Prime Minister, and a major U.S. supporter and say no no no let’s continue giving unconditional support to Israel’s military. The reality on the ground is that Israel & Netanyahu have lost Americans’ /4

and nearly tripled from 10% in 2022. 2. As of June, Netanyahu himself has indicated a willingness to end U.S. aid for Israeli weapons. 3. In January of this year, Lindsey Graham wrote on X about expediting the process of weaning Israel off of U.S. military aid. Given these three data points /3

If you are Jewish and surprised by the votes on the Massie Amendment Wed., I am going to politely suggest that you step out of your news feed or news bubble. It is not shocking or surprising at all given where the American public is on Israel & Netanyahu specifically. 3 data points in particular: /1

A textbook antisemitic conspiracy propaganda video posted by David Alan Scheer II, Mike Collins' son-in-law. He isn't just "criticizing Israel." He's blaming Jews for feminism, trans rights, porn, banking, JFK, 9/11, Epstein, and Charlie Kirk's murder.

Somebody is very paranoid

Somebody is very paranoid

Those who worked with Blanche agree – he is completely unqualified to serve as Attorney General and poses a direct threat to our democratic institutions. By placing Trump's agenda ahead of the constitutional principles he swore to defend, he risks turning the DOJ into Trump's personal law firm.

The decision by GOP leadership to force a vote on the Massie Amendment cutting all aid to Israel is a cynical political ploy. The Democratic Party will continue to have honest, good-faith conversations about how best to ensure safety and security for Israelis and Palestinians alike.

HUGE deal: Ted Cruz got Todd Blanche to say that, if confirmed as AG, he will review a Biden DOJ memo on the Comstock Act of 1873 that has allowed physicians and activists to mail mifepristone to states with abortion bans. Clarence Thomas called to prosecute doctors under the law @autonomynews.co

Ted Cruz is the latest of a string of Republican senators to push an agreeing Blanche to ban the mailing of mifepristone. They're coming for abortion pills next.

Embarrassing. Embarrassing for him. Embarrassing for the legal profession. Embarrassing for the Justice Department. Embarrassing for his former law partners (who have been embarrassed more than they deserve lately). Embarrassing for his family. And embarrassing for the country.

“Three years later, de-risking from predatory superpowers remains the fundamental challenge facing European leaders, but China is no longer the main country of concern: The United States is,” Jon Finer writes.

A judge appointed by Trump has the courage to say that the administration is lying about Jan 6. He disagrees with dismissing cases against violent proud boys. Blanche on the other hand seems just fine with it since it’s his DOJ now. Senators must choose. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/11/u...

I heard a bus full of judges was traveling across America so I got in my car and chased it to Ohio. What I witnessed was extraordinary. Inspired by Poland’s March of a Thousand Robes, retired judges walked through Columbus to stand up for the rule of law. Carlo 🐾 was a fan favorite. Watch:👇

This is so powerful. Inspired by the March of a Thousand Robes in Poland, retired and sitting judges in the United States walked down the streets of Columbus, Ohio to stand up for the Rule of Law. #JusticeinMotion

We‘re one executive order away from a chocolate fountain.

So military troops under the direct control of Trump and Hegseth will be on the streets of our nation’s capital for the rest of Trump’s term. The rationale—they’re here to help with a crime emergency—is laughable. But of course the real reason is ominous. cbs4local.com/news/nation-...

Why did retired judges march in Columbus 7/8? Inspired by Poland's March of 1,000 Robes, they joined attorneys & citizens on the #JusticeInMotion tour to defend an independent judiciary. This #CupOfJoe is the backbone of our rights.
