Trump’s revenge is a house of cards. There is no plan, no future for the U.S. His anger over losing to Biden is focused on everyone, not just liberals. Will Congress ever take back their power? We the people have power, use your voice and protest.

I haven't taken a goddamn DOLLAR in disability funds and I have *NEVER* requested any kind of accommodations.
Everything I make that I can give away for free I do. I make search tools you can't find anywhere else.
YOU SHOULD BE GLAD I'M HERE INSTEAD OF MAKING ME FEEL LIKE A FUCKING ALIEN.

It's absolutely disgusting what the New York Times, and particularly Azeen Ghorayshi, is doing with its coverage of autism. It's so deeply irresponsible.
It's the same playbook they ran on trans kids.

The prospect of Trump/Thune/Johnson failing and losing the House majority next November will shape the mindset of Cabinet leaders and elected officials as they plan their future.
Democratic control brings subpoena power—the authority to compel testimony, demand documents, and drive investigations.

The targeting of Mark Kelly isn’t politics...it’s the sick new normal created by a movement that can’t win arguments, only intimidate. When public servants become targets, freedom isn’t next in line… it’s already in danger. Fortunately, the outrage is intensifying rapidly.

Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone.
Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work.
Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.
