It is absolutely wild that the guy who won’t stop yelling about law and order is now personally stepping in to keep January 6 documents hidden from the police officers who were attacked that day. He knows exactly what’s in those files and he is terrified the country will see it.

Twitter users are getting BIG MAD at #grok.
Grok won't confirm their feeling that Senator Elissa Slotkin is "dangerous" and committing "sedition"...all just for reminding our military that they must follow the law.
These MAGA diehards are nuts. They want to put Trump above the US Constitution.

We hear that Putin and Trump (or their emissaries) have been secretly consulting about a settlement to the war. Given the inherent traps of allowing an aggressor to decide the outcome of his war, I try here to give a sense of how negotiations might actually work.

The first and last lines of Joni Ernst’s legacy as a human on earth will be that she was instrumental in the confirmation of the Sec of Defense most hostile to women serving in military, and she knew that when she voted for him.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

If they really wanted to open the government they could nuke the filibuster. They won’t though because it’s easier to gaslight their base into blaming a party that has no political power whatsoever other than holding out for healthcare. Opening the government and then negotiating is equivalent to 👇
