The draft dodging idiot posted a pic of this West Point plaque. It contains these words:

“Our American Code of Military Obedience requires that, should orders and the law ever conflict, our officers must obey the law.”

That is precisely what Senator Mark Kelly told officers to do. #NoSedition

Hell no!
Do you trust that Trump will not issue unlawful orders to the U.S. military?

Trump gets a question on this, asks the reporter who she’s with & says fake news, then talks about business deals before claiming MBS played no role in Khashoggi’s murder (speaking of fake news…)
Trump tells MBS, who was complicit in the murder of US-based journalist Jamal Khashoggi, it’s an “honor to be your friend” during a WH visit. www.nytimes.com/2021/02/26/u...

The difference between France in 1793 and the United States in 2025?

Marie Antoinette was *indifferent* to people starving.

But Donald Trump is using every trick at his disposal to *make sure* they do.

#ProudBlue One more time: 36.2% of all Americans did not vote in 2024!

Guess why we’re in the state we’re in now? If you have an election tomorrow, get out and VOTE!

All of my estimates of HOW crazy Trump is and HOW quickly his disease is progressing have been impossibly underselling it

I’ve never hesitated to join a Republican colleague standing up for the American people. While Republicans need to reopen the govt, we can't hold food assistance hostage. I'm backing Sen. Hawley's bill to keep SNAP going during the shutdown. Leader Thune needs to bring it to a vote NOW!

This is ridiculous. WTH FDA?
Our healthcare community is ridiculously broken. We have a therapy for Alzheimer’s that improves cognition up to 5 points, & politics prevents a US developed treatment from being offered in the US?
This is indeed-*UCKED.

Notice how quickly “we want our nation to uphold Christian values” turns into “it’s not the government’s job to feed the hungry or help the poor!” which are actually things Christ taught his followers to value.

You gotta admit, that's a brilliant idea

The Curtis Memorial Library in Brunswick, Maine doesn't just lend out books to community members. The library also houses a "Library of Things," where people can borrow household items, like sewing machines, lobster pots, and mini golf sets.

I Agree With The American Pope!

HOLY... Pope Leo XIV has thrown MAGA world into a rage by urging every Christian in the world to love, aid, and care for immigrants. 👏 This is just days after slamming Trump's cruel immigration policies that go against every teaching of Jesus.

Trump promised to bring down prices.

Yet inflation is on the rise — especially at the grocery store.

Trump promised no more foreign entanglements.

Yet his regime is unilaterally launching airstrikes on boats in the Caribbean.

Promises made, promises broken.

This is what @RepTimBurchett @MarshaBlackburn & Trump refuse to even discuss, as even Marge points out.

It’s not that we can’t afford Medicare for All, it’s that we can’t afford not to do it.

How much longer are y’all gonna let this go on?
