Durbin announcement welcomed. He should resign NOW and give @govpritzker.illinois.gov the chance to put in a replacement. Sen. Judiciary leadership can then pass to more capable and aggressive hands.

When American citizens have to worry about returning to their own country from travel abroad, you ain’t living in a free republic.

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

America, you f**ked up!

She warned us. She had a plan that would have benefited everyday Americans. But too many ignored her—because it was never really about the economy.

Now folks are scared, struggling—and we’re cooked.

Bennet: Did you know the President’s Middle East advisor was in Moscow on this thread? This sloppiness, this incompetence, this disrespect for our intelligence agencies and the personnel who work for him is entirely unacceptable. It's an embarrassment

First off, Pete Hegseth is a disgrace and should be fired.

Second, instead of being an asshole and trash-talking the journalist, he should be thanking him for not posting anything top-secret that’s still to come.

Collins: Do you think someone should be fired over this?

Buttigieg: Absolutely… if there’s not accountability for a screw up like this, especially from a president who used to fire people on television for sport, what are we even doing here..

Bernie Sanders at his Fighting Oligarchy rally today in Tucson, Arizona:

"We hear from our colleagues a whole lot about 'freedom.' Well, if we're gonna talk about freedom then let us understand that the women of this country must have the freedom to control their own bodies, not the government."

MAJOR BREAKING: Governor JB Pritzker just revealed that during COVID, Donald Trump told him he would only send life saving equipment if he agreed to praise him on the Sunday talk shows.

Is Donald Trump evil or just completely fucking deranged?

Musk is rich because you gave him $38 billion in tax money to make that.

He is happy to tell you what you don’t need.

He’s also picking a side in foreign policy, and it’s not our side

This is Chuck.

Chuck is selling a book.

Chuck also has a full-time job.

I would consider buying Chuck’s book if he were doing that job, but he’s not.

Don’t be like Chuck.

And don’t buy Chuck’s book.
It gets worse. Schumer isn’t just going on a book tour—he’s charging for tickets.

Absolute insanity. While Americans are scared and in crisis mode, he’s basically saying, let them eat cake.

@schumer.senate.gov Step Down.

True story. The water released was no where near Los Angeles and it was stored water for farmers to use in the dry summer months

That water is lost. Trump lied.

Fact check: Trump falsely claims ‘I invaded Los Angeles.’ His water releases didn’t go to LA | CNN Politics
In reality, the water was directed to a dry lake basin elsewhere in the Central Valley – more than 100 miles north of Los Angeles.

It is one thing to watch a dictator grab power.

It is another to hand it to him.

I’m headed to the Senate floor now.

To cast an emphatic “no.”

Just a friendly reminder that while voters won't have another chance to remove Schumer until 2028, the Dem senators can remove him at any time if they just get together. He may be able to stay in the senate, but he doesn't have to remain leader. It's time for something new.

I'm a hard NO on the Republican spending bill. On cloture. On all of it.

When a wannabe dictator is trying to seize power, it must not be given to him.

Not without a fight.

No Dem Senator has to follow Schumer here. This is a weak stategic move driven by fear and learned helplessness. Don't follow him. He's leading the party into irrelevance and helping Trump and Musk in the process.

Call your Dem Senators and ask them not to join Schumer's surrender tomorrow.
SCHUMER just now: "While the CR bill is very bad, the potential for a shutdown has consequences for America that are much, much worse."

We've had a lot of recessions, but this is the first one that is completely unforced and entirely owed to just one person. What part of Trump promising "lower prices on day one" meant a market crash, economic recession, and surging prices?
