Who would have guessed it: never mentioning public healthcare and embracing fracking, the Cheneys & a year long slaughter in Gaza wouldn’t be a winning strategy.

AOC has said this about Marjorie Taylor Greene retiring:
"She's carefully timing her departure just 1-2 days after her pension kicks in and after making millions of dollars insider trading stocks for weapons manufacturers and others while in office. "

A professor at Harvard released a study that indicates that the death toll on Gaza is close to 400,000 people.
Incredible. Just insane.
And the USA enabled and sponsored every single death.
One of the most disgusting things to happen in my lifetime.

Jeffries: I think Rick Scott has some history with medicaid fraud in the state of Florida. So he's no expert on health care. We ain't going to be lectured by Rick Scott about anything, but certainly not affordable health care.

Have the Democratic Party, the Center for American Progress, and the architects of Project 2029 disavowed Larry Summers?
He's advising all of them and is a major liberal power player.
He was also used by the Dem establishment to attack Mamdani.
If they have, great; if not, why not?

Trump initiated a new investigation into Democrats and Epstein the same day he said go ahead and vote to release the files. In that post he said give them “What they are legally entitled to.” Since it’s under investigation, be prepared for absolutely nothing.
