Republicans Are Damaged by Their Own Cruelty

In a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi, a pair of Democratic senators said the DOJ’s efforts to seize voter data from states “appear to be driven by blind allegiance to the President’s unlawful” sweeping anti-voting order and pose serious privacy risks.

The best part about SCOTUS refusing to overturn Gay marriage is that Kim Davis now needs to pay THREE HUNDRED SIXTY THOUSAND DOLLARS in fines for refusing to issue marriage licenses. 😂😂🏳️‍🌈💪

In the last month, the FBI has charged players from two different leagues for roles in sports-betting scandals.

Either legalized gambling is exposing corruption that’s always been there.

Or it’s creating it.

Either answer is terrible for sports.

Democrats were overwhelmingly united on their shutdown demands.

Americans understood that Trump and Republicans were to blame.

Voters made it known last Tuesday that they'll elect leaders who stand up to Trump.

Democrats held the cards — and folded for no reason.

Jeffries: "I'm not gonna respond to any comments from randos like Dr Oz who is woefully unqualified to be in whatever position he holds in the administration. He's a joke."

Sanders: That is a totally meaningless gesture. You can get 100 votes here and it won't mean anything because the House is not going to take it up.

Newsom: "Think about the state of mind of the VP. How do you square the circle when you go to a prayer breakfast? Old testament, new testament. What's the fundamental thing that connects John to Matthew to Proverbs? It's this notion of hunger, feeding the poor. It's central to advancing God's will."

These Senators joined Republicans to pass the CR with no compromise to extend ACA subsidies. So millions of Americans will end up having to drop their health insurance coverage as a result. 🤬

I will not only blame the Senate Democrats who are caving. I will blame them all. They needed to keep their ranks in order. If this happens, it's the most spineless political retreat imaginable and it will harm millions upon millions of Americans. Chickenshit, self-neutering nonsense. Cowards.

Unacceptable. There are 189,000 people in my district who will be paying 50–300% more for the same, and in many cases worse, healthcare.

I won’t do that to the people I represent. I’m a NO on this “deal.”

There is a lot less anti-Trans bigotry in the US than the GOP gambled on.

-- The GOP Went Big on Anti-Trans Ads This Year. And Guess What Happened?

Abigail Spanberger’s GOP foe spent 57 percent of her ad budget on anti-trans attacks. Spanberger focused on the economy. You see what won.
