Rep Al Green is a hero. But look at what the media is doing. They’re making it entirely about decorum, and ignoring that he was protesting against Medicaid cuts. This is why it’s wise for Democrats to lay a bit low for now. Let the media’s negative focus be entirely on Trump.

This hits hard... I so wanna shout from the rooftops an important 1954 phrase from the American history : "You've done enough. Have you no sense of decency, sir, at long last? Have you left no sense of decency?" And then, I realise that at least 77 million of Americans have no sense of decency left

Trump didn’t seem to know where he was at or what was going on, until JD Vance started yelling at Zelensky. Only then did Trump decide he was also supposed to yell at Zelensky. Trump’s senility is getting worse, and his people are having a harder time working around it.

How is everyone doing today? Zelensky was awesome. He should take the deal France is offering.

I can't think of a faster way to undermine the country than simultaneously firing government workers, cutting scientific research, rolling back protections on public health & environment, & cutting essential services. It's like the US was defeated in war and is being occupied by a hostile enemy.
