Never forget and never forgive the so-called “normie Republicans” who enabled this monster, fully aware of how dangerous he was, all for their own political and personal gain.

I think it's time for us to view Kennedy's actions as an attack not just on our public health but the country itself. He's an incredible monster.

Really remarkable how we have gone from "former President Clinton met with the Attorney General" as a scandal to "the DOJ is the President's personal law firm, and every part of the administrative state serves to target the President's political opponents" as the norm.
Important: Note that Trump just posted documents plainly given to him by administration agencies as part of his quest to show Schiff merits prosecution. This is an open flaunting of the use of agencies to gin up pretexts for prosecuting enemies. (cc @donmoyn.bsky.social @emptywheel.bsky.social)

“Prayer matters,” Abbott said. Prayers “could have been the reason why water stopped rising”.
What a shameful MAGA debacle of a press conference - a conference supposedly intended to help families desperate for information on the Texas flooding.

Please pray for these precious missing children and all those affected today. Just a horrific day.
About 23 girls at Camp Mystic remained unaccounted for Friday after deadly flooding from the Guadalupe River caused “destructive” floods at the private Christian summer camp in Hunt, Texas, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said.
