Kelly: "My family has suffered from political violence. My wife, Gabby, was nearly assassinated, shot in the head at a political event. Even the president -- 2 assassination attempts -- he should understand his words have significant weight and people react to things that he says."

We’ve endured 10 months of Trump’s mayhem so far. A question I’ve been asking various people is how long they believe it will take for America to recover from Trump — if the nation ever will recover?

living through the previously-absurd scenario of an out-of-control president looting the nation, ignoring the law, inciting violence, pardoning criminals, working with our enemies, but instead of some titanic political struggle most of society is just trying really hard to avoid mentioning it

Trump’s administration is being held in contempt for allegedly misleading the court and carrying out secret deportations in defiance of orders.

Warren: "With Jeffrey Epstein, I really mean follow the money. Here's the deal - JPMorgan Chase - yes, Jamie Dimon, I'm looking at you -- is Epstein's bank, a close personal relationship that spans years. Shouldn't this be in the JPMorgan's ads?...I'd like to have Dimon come in & under oath testify"

Dept. of Ed is reclassifying all the female dominated professions (nurse, therapist, speech pathologist, PA) as not having “professional” degrees, which makes it harder for them to get educational loans.

Another FUCKED UP thing this admin is doing to attack women’s power.

Today, after the Coast Guard lifted a ban on swastikas and nooses as symbols of hate, and after President Trump called for the execution of members of Congress, it is time for every American to decide. Who will you be?

I’m a paratrooper. I’m used to being behind enemy lines.

To lead in this moment requires us to be bold & unafraid.

Donald Trump can threaten to arrest & execute me, but he'll never intimidate me.

Trump's approval ratings are tanking.

He's flailing on the economy.

He backtracked on the Epstein files and lost control of the GOP.

His plot to steal the 2026 midterms is faltering.

Do not let him gaslight you into believing he is all powerful.

📌Look, we will NEVER see the Epstein Files as long as King Piggy has his fat, little hands on them, but if Democrats keep the attention on all his failures in the WH, they will continue to demolish his pathetic party at the polls ...
FOCUS ON THE FAILURE
Trump is choking on the Epstein Files, but it's his disastrous presidency overall which will sink him and his revolting party ...

Everyone knows about Cricket, but Kristi Noem’s goat, Tater Tot, arguably suffered the worst - after killing Cricket, Noem tied Tater Tot up and shot him, but the first shot wasn’t fatal and Noem had to go to her truck for another shell to finish the execution.
