"What a despicable and thoughtless sentiment it is to glorify killing someone without a trial."

The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right.

The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter.

Everyone must choose which side they’re on.

It's really something to read a convicted abuser and trafficker make sure in her DOJ interview to praise the President of the United States, who is trying to prove he wasn't one of her clients, in order to try and get a pardon from the President of the United States.

Not at all disturbing.

I'm hoping the transparently disgusting deal made between Epstein's old best friend and his most notorious accomplice is obvious to everyone here.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

The floods ripped through Texas on July 4.

On July 5, FEMA received 3000 calls from survivors. 1% were unanswered.

That night, Trump/Noem fired the people who answer the calls.

On July 6, FEMA received 2,363 calls. 65% unanswered.

July 7: 85%.

Sick.

This is Macarthur Park in Los Angeles. Republicans have turned the United States in a military police state. I could not even imagine what Fox and Republicans would be saying if Biden or Obama sent the US military to terrorize communities in Texas.

Do you think the Warning Coordination Meteorologist position at the Austin/San Antonio office was important?

He left in April, part of DOGE cuts,which offered early retirement to reduce the workforce. It’s now vacant, part of the strategy of reducing staff through attrition.

Absolutely enraging.

What do you even say at this point? This isn't just some random account. She did debate prep for the current president. She advised him to fire half the National Security Council. She visits the Oval Office frequently. This is our government.

Yesterday, Trump illegally cut off funding for public schools, precipitating a huge crisis for thousands of schools.

This is a result of the recent Supreme Court ruling neutering federal courts.

Final vote. 50-50. VP breaks the tie.

One single GOP Senator could have stopped this abomination. Saved millions of parents from watching their child go hungry. Saved the lives destroyed when Medicaid disappears.

They will all live forever with the horror of this bill.

Ok, so Republicans just introduced a 900 page bill none of them have read. But my team is going through it line by line and on this 🧵you can see the hidden provisions we found. Will update all day.

1/ NEW Medicaid cuts, so now 17 million - instead of 16M - lose health care.
