Andry Romero, a young gay man, was given an asylum appointment by the U.S. Government. When he showed up to the appointment we kidnapped him and sent him to a foreign prison.

I asked Secretary Noem to check if he’s alive. Her response was shameful.

Walz: When did government get to tell you how many dolls your child has? Government just big enough to fit in your bedroom, your womb, and apparently now in your toy chest.

100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion in the 2024 election.

70% of these donations went to Republicans.

Now, Trump and the GOP are gutting the FEC — which enforces campaign finance and anti-corruption laws.

See how this works?

Yep, I’m going to “politicize” the FSU shooting because gun violence is political. The reason America has a 26 times higher gun homicide rate than any peer nation is because politicians care more about pandering to gun lobbyists than protecting their constituents.

Requiring REAL IDs and passports and birth certificates to vote?!?

Imagine if these were required to buy a gun.

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024.

This isn't due to luck or skill.

Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you.

Make no mistake, it’s legalized corruption.

The bewildering mystery of the relationship between increased certitude and level of ignorance.
If only someone could figure out a way to heat milk to a high temperature and kill bacteria before they sell it to the public. 🤔

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is not a “skeptic” of vaccines. He has said there are no safe or effective vaccines. He is a foe of vaccines.

This X account has been given a grey checkmark, verifying it as an official government account.

It also only accepts resumes be DM's, which are solely open to verified X users who pay Elon Musk.

This level of corruption is staggering.

So Susan Collins is going to have to vote to confirm a Fox host for Secretary of Defense then run for re-election in 2026 in a state Harris won by 7 points. Or not.

Just because he isn't subject to their jurisdiction doesn't mean the House cannot release the Gaetz report. Don't let the GOP play the helpless victim here.

Tell Johnson to release the report!

You know who I feel bad for right now? Madison Cawthorn.

If the dude had only kept his mouth shut about the cocaine orgies he’d probably be the incoming deputy AG.
