Whitehouse: Not only were the founders extremely interested in checks and balances but they were desperately concerned about corruption.

This Court has consistently taken the side of corruption against every device Congress has created to fight political corruption.

"She's got a wonderful boy. And she's very proud of her boy" is a pretty weird way for a dad to talk about his own son. They're all such bizarrely monstrous people.
Trump on his wife's legislative initiative: "I just heard about that for the first time. The only thing I can tell you, I know one thing for sure, it's going to be great for children. I don't know what it is she's doing. She loves children. She's got a wonderful boy. And she's very proud of her boy"

I would like to point out that "people speaking different languages" picked the cotton, settled the west, pioneered the farms, laid the railroads, built New York City, and created every food that is worth eating in this country. And so does your wife, J.D.

Mark Kelly: ...Jobs are down. Wages are flat. Costs are up. And this president is asleep. Like, literally. He's falling asleep on the job. Like every day. And it's hurting the American people. He's doing nothing to try to help people with the cost of groceries and rent and healthcare.

Remember the farm workers who harvest the food? We wouldn’t be able to enjoy a Thanksgiving dinner without their hard work.

Reporters who fact-check Trump to his face are not “stupid”, they are not “piggies”, and they are not “ugly”. They are doing their jobs, and doing it under pressure most of us will never experience.

We should be grateful for their service. I appreciate their courage now more than ever.

Katie Wilson, Seattle’s newly elected mayor, has embraced a city-owned startup designed to emulate Vienna’s social housing model, which involves a public developer building housing designed to be permanently affordable.
Progressives Win in Seattle, Changing Directions on Public Safety
Voters ousted a mayor who oversaw a surge in encampment sweeps, and a Republican prosecutor who pursued punitive policies toward homeless people and drug users.

Impeach, convict, remove.

And if our current leaders won’t do it, they need to step aside for people who will.

Mr. Secretary, you seem confused. Mark Kelly was defending the Constitution. That’s leadership and you should try it.

This is an insurrection…

“Hey Megyn Kelly, I'm Eloise & I'm 14y”

“kids my age aren't supposed to be the ones correcting you. We're not supposed to be the moral compass in a room full of adults who should have known better. But here we are“

Also in here: DHS responded to the faith-led protest yesterday, calling participants “violent rioters” and “imbecilic morons” who need to “get a job.”

Asked about the statement, one UMC pastor who participated in the protest told me: "This is our job." religionnews.com/2025/11/15/a...

NEW: California now has nearly 17,000 megawatts of battery storage – reaching one-third of the way to our 2045 goal.

We're deploying more battery storage than any state in America, building a stronger grid, cutting pollution, and securing a safer future for our nation.

Hey Megyn Kelly,

14-year-old Eloise would like a word:

“If my voice makes you uncomfortable, good…
because the minute adults start defending predators by defending the age of a child, you’re not protecting the truth, you’re protecting the predator.”

Sound up! 🔥🔊

From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."

Medicare 4 all.

Why should we pay all that money to insurance companies who deny us coverage and make medical decisions based on company profits? We pay more for less.

It’s hard to believe that we’ve gone from nearly passing the equal rights amendment to this nightmare of Trump 47 🤡 trying to bring back racism and sexism. I wouldn’t be surprised to see the rhetorical question raised again.”Are you still beating your wife?” 😎

I can’t express how difficult it will be to convince young people to “vote blue no matter who” when Chuck Schumer himself won’t commit to voting for the blue candidate young people love.

They’ve worked 20 days in 16 weeks and still pocket a full taxpayer-funded salary.

The same people preaching “hard work” and “fiscal responsibility” can’t even clock in.

Government by grifters, paid for by you.

Keep protesting! We are the majority.
