Oh what sad times are these when passing ruffians can say ‘ni’ at will to old ladies. There is a pestilence upon this land. Nothing is sacred.

Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

This administration will twist facts...dodge questions...and smear reputations....anything to avoid saying the one honest thing about Kilmar Abrego Garcia:

“We were wrong.”

The arrogance is staggering...and the damage they’re doing to justice is unforgivable.

In an act of integrity and resistance, a supervisor in the Nashville federal prosecutor’s office resigned over how the Abrego Garcia case was being handled. The charges are bogus, pure political theater meant to justify a wrongful abduction.

I’m all for reducing spending, but to do that during a recession is economic suicide.

They are are eating the checks; they are eating the balances.

The economy is a wreck, but they are pretending we are in a palace.

At the stroke of midnight the tarriffs will invoke more madness & the only question will be who will keep their lips tight & who will fight

When the wildfires hit California, MAGA screeched for weeks that Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass was out of the country (and immediately came back).

The White House put out a statement saying that Donald Trump would veto the Senate bill by Democratic Senator Maria Cantwell and Republican Senator Chuck Grassley to claw back the power to impose tariffs from the president and bring it back to Congress.

Donald wants to be a dictator.

Cory Booker ending his record-breaking speech on the Senate floor:

What a fantastic way to cap off his epic 25 hour and 5 minute speech.

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble.
For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity.
