I’m a husband, father of 3, Army vet, and a bleeding heart progressive. I fought in 2 GOP wars and will spend the rest of my life fighting against their regressive, hateful agenda. We have more power united than decided.

Welcome to my sounding board. Stick around if you’re into:

Pro Wrestling

* Video Games
* Sci-Fi
* The progressive agenda
* Pro separation of church & state

See yourself out if you’re:

* MAGA
*Homo/transphobic
*Offended by harsh language or overzealous support for progressive ideals.

Congrats to Lisa Murkowski on voting for a bill that she herself admitted was not ready in hopes that the House would change it. Now it’ll become law. She had the power to stop it, and instead chose to become complicit. That’s her legacy.

The Biden admin passed the infrastructure bill, full of corporate handouts, but actually provided a benefit to voters.

The Trump admin wants to pass the BBB, which is nothing but tax cuts for the rich, corporate handouts, and deep cuts that will harm voters.

Still think both sides are the same?

1/4 As someone who has published a lot of scholarship on state failure, I want to be very clear about the current situation. This regime is a few weeks maybe a couple of months away from destroying our democracy. It has surrendered the economy to oligarchs, uses its office for personal gain…

We need to talk about RFK Jr.’s recent comments on autism. He said: “These are kids who will never pay taxes. They’ll never hold a job. They’ll never play baseball. They’ll never write a poem. They’ll never go out on a date. Many of them will never use a toilet unassisted.”

Gutting America’s public health system does nothing to make our nation safer or healthier.

In fact, it does the exact opposite.

It ensures that fewer cures are found, less treatment is available, and more Americans will die unnecessarily.
Breaking news: The Department of Health and Human Services is cutting nearly a quarter of its workforce and consolidating several of its departments, Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced Thursday.
RFK Jr. announces big cuts to Department of Health and Human Services
In all, the agency will cut 20,000 positions, half of them by layoffs.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why.

What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

I finally get to the end of the day and I’m ready to game..

Grabbed my portal and nothing.

Turns out there is currently a PSN outage, and when there is an outage, the portal becomes a freaking brick.

Here’s to hoping it comes back quick. 😡🤬😡

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

I keep hearing that POTUS is breaking the law.

Question is who’s gonna stop him?

The FBI won’t investigate

The DOJ won’t prosecute

The courts won’t convict

SCOTUS will overturn

The feckless GOP won’t impeach

The senate won’t convict

And the dems have no power or plan

We’re so fucked!

No one knows what caused last night's tragic crash outside DCA.

Investigations are ongoing, and no one - not Donald Trump or anyone else - should be drawing conclusions until all the facts have been released.

But here is what we do know. (1/7)

Flashback. The year is 2007. I had been serving active duty army for about 5 years. I was stationed at Fort Campbell, KY and was apart of the 101st Airborne. I was also a husband and a father of 2, a 1yo and a newborn. I had just returned from one deployment and was prepping for the next.

A lot of poor, ignorant people are about to get exactly what they voted for.

WIC
Food Stamps
Pell Grants
Free & Reduced K-12 lunches
Head Start
Medicaid
Section 8 Housing
Title 1 Grants

All federal assistance payments paused with the stroke of a sharpie.

This is going to hurt millions.
