Someone has to be accountable.
Walz: "I don't care if you are conservative are flying a Donald Trump flag, a libertarian 'Don't Treat on Me,' a Democratic Socialist -- this an inflection point. If we cannot all agree that the smearing of a citizen and besmirching everything they stood for -- someone has to be accountable."

Trump at Davos confusing Iceland for Greenland (which does he want again?) and talking about Biden and the democrats as if that’s relevant to an international crowd.
Impeach. 25th Amendment. This Rapist Administration needs to go NOW. This is the most urgent crisis of our lifetime!

The United States government is not sending ICE to Minnesota in winter to create order or enforce compliance. They are trying to goad Americans to shoot each other so they can enforce martial law and cancel elections.
ICE: you're as expendable to this administration as the rest of us.

Tim Walz is out of the race for governor. Great communicator. Great heart. Probably the best decision for him and his family. And thanks for your service.
But my hope is that we elect Democrats and leftists who will fight and keep fighting. Hopefully Minnesota will elect someone to meet the moment.

Leaked documents show the US is trying to convince 4 European nations to leave the EU, and the idea has been floated to create a Core 5 comprising of the US, Russia, China, India, and Japan to counter the G7.
We have to reckon with this administration before the world has to.

This whole disavowing socialism vote by our entire House minority leadership really makes me want to leave the party. But that’s what they want.
Nah. We’re here and we’re doing the work on behalf of the people. Move over, leave, or, most implausibly, try leading.

How stupid do they think we are? Suddenly EVERYONE is on board with releasing the files after they’ve been delayed for weeks and months with no real explanation?

This is odd, it looks like the DOJ skipped suing Texas entirely. The Justice Department is now suing California over the new congressional district boundaries that voters approved just last week, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Thursday in a post on X. Who are they going to sue, the voters?

Btw Angus King can caucus by himself. I’ve never heard anything more pathetic than that sniveling coward bemoaning “standing up to Trump didn’t work” hours after the biggest Democratic sweep in years.
He’s as much a flaccid worm as the thing driving RFK Jr.

I wonder if Schumer is annoyed that Rosen received as much money from AIPAC this year as he has his entire career. $1.7 mil by the way.

I love how the Republican response this morning is not “how do we get people to vote for us” but “how do we stop more people from voting?”
