“Just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.” Matthew 25:40 I don’t understand how you read that, hold hands with your fellow legislators in prayer, and then vote to cut a trillion dollars out of health care.

Just a reminder that Trump, the President and MAGA's "Daddy," is a rapist who was ordered to pay E. Jean Carroll $6 million this week. Totally normal in America, not even big news.

The most important thing to remember about Trump’s press conference last night is that the war in Iran is still out of control, gas prices are still through the roof, and the administration is still hiding the Epstein files from the American people.

Ossoff: "We restore checks and balances by winning this election overwhelmingly"

My takeaway from that speech is that we are headed down the road of Trump trying to outright rig elections. It probably won't work, but he's going for it.

FYI nothing in the save America act protects our election infrastructure from hacking

He’s basically taking the DNI Russia election interference assessment word for word and replacing Russia with China.

Trump has only been speaking for a few minutes, and already, three fact checkers have passed out from exhaustion.

The White House is considering releasing intelligence about foreign access to U.S. election infrastructure and vulnerabilities in voting equipment. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

🚨BREAKING: Jay Clayton, the top federal prosecutor in Manhattan who President Donald Trump tapped for director of national intelligence (DNI), repeatedly declined to clearly state who won the 2020 election during his confirmation hearing Wednesday. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

🚨BREAKING: Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) lawyers have told a court that the agency may have thousands of documents relevant to Democrats’ demand for the Trump administration’s possible plans to deploy immigration agents at the polls this fall. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The record on the first E Jean judgment is now complete - Trump is liable, he was a digital rapist, he is an adjudicated sexual abuser, and he engaged in defamatory rhetoric. The case went through multiple appeals and to SCOTUS. It's done. He lost. He paid. He IS a predator.

This. ⬇️⬇️. We are begging you.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio says the Trump administration intends to “dismantle the ICC” and weaken the International Criminal Court “brick by brick,” as the administration grows increasingly worried about prosecutions after they are out of office.

Some good news.

TBH, I don't much care what really kept Mitch out for four weeks. He does more good to humanity occupying a non-voting seat than in the Senate.

He never deleted it.

Trump returning to the WH today, the picture of spryness, awareness, and overall health.

It's official. My provision banning private equity from mass purchasing homes is now law. This is an INCREDIBLE victory for Georgia and the country.

This "tweet" from a year ago has been deleted by its author. I'm posting here now on BlueSky as a reminder and as a public service, for anyone, should they ever need it. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

(1/4) I watched Trump next to Zelenskyy this AM, rambling and riffing for press. I was making notes, when - holy shit, did he really say that, when - holy shit, he just did a 180, when - holy shit, that made no sense, and holy shit, something else - I threw my notes away to make this post instead.

BREAKING: Molly Crane Newman reports that Judge Kaplan has ORDERED the release of the $5m plus interest to E Jean Carroll.

Joe Biden had and still has what Trump didn't, doesn't and never will: Decency, competent governing skills, experience, intelligence, ability to answer questions in depth & with truthful specifics, honesty, compassion and love of country.

There are rumors that, ironically - much like many of the voters who elected him - Mitch McConnell is brain dead.

Now that the MSM flood is also starting, there’s no way they’re going to be able to keep this hidden until August. The rumor mill has been going crazy today. Nothing confirmed yet, but it definitely doesn’t sound good.

Caving to MAGA hardliners, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said the U.S. House will pass the SAVE America Act, President Donald Trump’s massive voter suppression bill, “one more time” through a budget reconciliation process. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

How many of these dudes are pardoned January 6ers?

Oh.👀 Beatrice Keul, 55, a former beauty queen, says she believes Ivana Trump acted as a "madam"-style figure in Epstein's social world, on par with Ghislaine Maxwell. "Was Maxwell a madam or an enabler? However you would describe her, Ivana was the same." www.rawstory.com/ivana-trump-...

From climate-change denial to anti-vax conspiracies, the anti-science Trump admin is putting American’s health and livelihood in serious danger. We’re fighting back. Help us embolden a Congress that will #StandUpForScience here: zurl.co/75xqf Article: zurl.co/eqeFH

Bigot and antisemite Mike Collins, under federal investigation for illegal misuse of tax dollars and only a congressman because his daddy was a congressman, is scared to debate. He'll have to defend health care cuts, tariffs, war. He'll have to keep pretending Trump won 2020!

Stock trades by President. The blatant corruption is just staggering

🚨BREAKING: In the latest blow to President Donald Trump’s anti-voting agenda, a federal court on Wednesday granted the NAACP’s request to halt the U.S. Postal Service’s (USPS) implementation of his executive order against mail voting. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

New in PN: A vote away from undoing the civil war "The only role for a functional SCOTUS would have been to deny a cert request by saying, 'Did the lower court stutter?' Instead, we came within one vote of letting the worst people in the country run roughshod over one of America's sacred compacts."

JD Vance: I would love it if Democrats were willing to work with us on lowering housing prices. We could have some real bipartisan compromise. (Trump is currently refusing to sign the bipartisan housing affordability bill)

We've seen 300,000 Georgians lose health coverage in the last six months because they couldn't find room in the budget for health insurance, but they've got room in the budget for a tungsten mine overseas, controlled in part by Prince Don and Prince Eric.
