Could have built one of the world’s greatest laboratories, libraries, research facilities, anything, and he chose… a ballroom.
Trump: First of all, the East Wing… was a poor, sad sight. I could have built the ballroom around it but it would have not have been -- we are building one of the greatest ballrooms in the world

Project 2025 was always about gutting SNAP and the ACA. If Trump voters are angry about the price of food and healthcare, they should look in the mirror. They voted to screw themselves and everyone else.

What happens to Dems when they get elected? Seriously. They all get to DC and lose all connection with the outside world and what their voters and supporters are very loudly and VERY PLAINLY asking of them?
even when the democratic party has leverage and one of the craziest election swings the party intentionally self immolates it’s just so exhausting what is even the point of these people

Hey Chris Murphy: this would be an excellent move to make tomorrow.
Hey just a reminder that it only takes 23 Senate Democrats to remove and replace Chuck Schumer as minority leader. They don't do it because the majority of Senate Democrats approve of the way he does politics.

I just want elected dems to put up a fight. It’s so deflating to time and time and TIME AGAIN watch the people I’m rooting for get shoved into lockers and never fight back. Harry Reid would’ve never interrupted the GOP when they were in the middle of making such boneheaded mistakes.
Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

Follow this lead, blue states.
Last night, the Trump Administration sent a letter suggesting Wisconsin should return our FoodShare payments.

And ask vulnerable GOP house members if they agree with what Trump is saying here. “He says costs are done across the board; what are your constituents telling you?” It is cartoonishly out of touch.
Dems need to start talking more about how Trump’s dementia means that he can’t distinguish his fantasies from reality. He has completely lost touch with the real world and only knows what his sycophantic courtiers are telling him.
Trump: "If you look at affordability, which they campaigned on, they lied. Because they talked about 'Oh, prices are up' -- no, prices are down under the Trump administration and they're down substantially."

Deployed military will have to be allowed to come home to vote, right?
Trump: "It's time for Republicans to do what they have to do and that's terminate the filibuster ... we should start tonight with 'the country's open, congratulations,' then we should pass voted ID, we should pass no mail in voting ... you go to a grocery store, you have to give ID."

Glimmers of hope in politics are few and far between these days so I too will celebrate so hard if these three win and Prop 50 passes.
I need Zohran, Abigail, Mikie, and Prop 50 to win because I need to feel even a fraction of the hope and joy I felt a year ago today

This is awful because first, people have lost their jobs and it’s a crappy time but ALSO, Teen Vogue does amazing political reporting and explaining. Seriously, they’ve consistently been one of the best.
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Well done speaker johnson: you outlined a very solid platform for Dems. I’d vote for it.
Johnson: "If they had no filibuster, they would pack the SCOTUS. You'd go from 9 to 17 or however many liberals they could pack. You would make DC & Puerto Rico into states, which would give 4 additional Democrat senators & make us a permanent minority. You'd see massive restrictions of 2A rights"

CNN is reporting that @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social referred to a voter he was meeting as “my man” at a campaign event today, even though the 13th Amendment to the United States Constitution has made it illegal to own human beings since 1865 and remains the law in states including New York

He’s not working so what exactly is he doing all day other than NOT reading the newspaper?
Q: What's your reaction to yesterday's purge of senior ICE officials? When is it time for Congress to do some oversight?

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know any of the details of that yet. I just heard about that, literally I was walking in.

Food bank director: “for every meal that a food bank provides, the SNAP program provides nine. There’s no way we can meet that gap.”

This thread makes a point I find myself coming to often these days.

It's hard to make this point in a way that doesn't sound like a threat, but it's just a fact that for centuries the wealthy in America worried that the mob would come get them and did all they could to avoid that fate.
lol what the wealthy today don't seem to understand is part of staying wealthy in society is not pissing off the masses.

There's a reason why Carnegie and the Rockefellers poured money into institutions. Gutting institutions and making it harder for the masses to survive is a...choice.

But your group makes the laws!!! So group on up and get to lawmaking and if you can’t do that, then resign and let those willing to work do the job. #NoOneWantsToWorkAnymore
Johnson: Snap benefits is a unique situation. I got a summary of the legal analysis…the contingency funds are not legally available to cover the benefits right now

Unleash the Walz! Bring him to VA to rally for Spanberger!
Tim Walz: "Everything coming out of DHS right now is about theatrics, is about a media hit or whatever. My guess is she's probably here on personal business and used it as a way to pay for it by having a press conference that had absolutely nothing factual and nothing new."

What my brain feels like, logging in at work after being out for a four-day vacation.
makes me weep to think of the gifts robbed from us because unaffordable housing has made it difficult for people to pursue their passions and hobbies

I've been getting a lot of questions about tattoos, so time to fess up — I have one.

I got this tattoo a few years ago as a reminder of what hope and a positive vision can do in our politics. And yes, I knew what it was when I got it.
