Instead of policing people sharing vital information, go find your fainting couch if you can’t handle the collapse of your country.

You should in fact watch the video out of Minnesota. So many of you bury your heads in the sand. This is America.

It’s arguably more a K-hole shaped economy.

Going back to where I came from. Couldn’t be more pleased.

This sucks but I think non-Americans being justifiably angry at Americans for what the American government is doing and threatening to do, and Americans experiencing that anger and frustration personally in ways that are unpleasant, is probably an important part of any path back to stability

good time to read this.
Marco Rubio is the Trump administration’s most formidable liar and is dead set on placing drug cartel bosses at the top of every Latin American government. Maureen Tkacik reports on Rubio’s long narco-terrorist history:

Zohran just went out and fixed the Williamsburg Bridge bike entrance. Just did it. No faffing, no nonsense. Bam. Fixed.

RAJU: Do you regret you vote to confirm Marco Rubio?

Chris Murphy is the cat chasing a laser pointer dot.
Chris Murphy: "At some level he's winning tonight because clearly part of his intent here was to distract the American people -- you and I -- from what's happening here at home. You have 20 million families who are getting massive increases in their healthcare premiums. People will die."

Jeffries: "The Constitution isn't a matter of inconvenience. It is a requirement. George Washington in his farewell address to the nation made clear that the Constitution is sacredly obligatory upon all. That means everybody. There is no Trump exception."

Call your Senator and demand new leadership.
Schumer: "Republicans must -- if there was ever a time, they must step up to the plate. This is the time. And if they don't, they're gonna feel the heat from their constituents."

You need to step down for the sake of the nation. We need courage in this moment.
The idea that Trump plans to now run Venezuela should strike fear in the hearts of all Americans. The American people have seen this before and paid the devastating price.

Dude’s gotta go.
Asked about the possibility of impeachment, Schumer says "we hope that we can have support from our Republican colleagues to put a brake on this long before it gets that far"
