It's a revealing moment...

J.D. Vance welcomes a two-legged robot helping on the job site. But if that helper is a person named Jose, he calls it a threat. Same tasks, same productivity boost.

The inconsistency reveals this isn’t about economics.

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.

We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.

We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.

Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.

This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

Ohio, this is your Senator.

Smarmy used car salesman gonna stick with his smarmy used car tactics. What a creep.
Instead of Bernie Moreno creepily following us to the cars we use to get to work in the Capitol and writing down their VIN numbers, I'd suggest he use his time in more productive ways …

To put this in scale, Elon Musk's salary from Tesla alone could fund the SNAP program for the entire country into 2034.

Sickening silence as Trump thugs invade an office.

"Sit down. Do your work."
If you behave maybe they won't take you away.

Reminds me of the scene in Schindler's List where the women rub blood on their cheeks so they look healthy and aren't sent to the gas.

I always find it interesting how the story changes when a lawyer gets to court. They can say anything they want outside of court without accountability but the rules are vastly different in court where you can get seriously penalized for lying.

He comes to the U.S. because he gets worshipped here by the GOP. They love his style: buy up all the media, slander your political opponents, live lavishly while destroying democracy.
They ache for his advice.

Judge: You indicted first, now you want to investigate.

It's also looking like they mislead the grand jury to get their indictment, and the prosecutor had never been in front of a grand jury before in her entire career.

This Comey case is a joke.

Expect Trump to halt voting, seize voting machines, and even declare martial law in the 2026 election.

Then, stop him at every turn.

How? Historic turnout (like Poland's 74% in 2023 when they overthrew their fascists).

If he steals 2026, it's over.

She just nailed it.
Less than 1 minute and she sums up this country right now and what's about to happen.
Watch this.
You ready? You better be.
I've given my new Senator a lot of shit on here. But I don't think anyone with power has laid out the stakes of what we're facing as clearly as she does right here.

And if she's saying this, it's because she feels she must.
