Shouldn’t this news about Trump Jr. spend at least a few hours atop the newscycle?

The government sponsored sadism and abuse against people has got to stop!
My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

@basil45.bsky.social how do your rants about the past help? What are you doing to build back—or at least save what’s left of—our democracy? Throwing democrats under the bus only helps the GQP. Democracy isn’t a perfect marriage. It’s a dirty public bus to get you closer to the destination.

Now that SCOTUS has validated gerrymandering for any racist arbitrary reason imaginable—EVERY Blue state Governor needs to redistrict their state to completely eliminate red seats.
This is the MAGA precedent. It is law now. Run with it. Beat MAGAs at their own game. Vote MAGAs out permanently.

Pete Hegseth posted an image of the Franklin the Turtle firing a bazooka at a boat amid rightful criticism of deadly strikes on boats in the Caribbean, disregarding due process. He is responsible for the murder of more than 80 souls. Here you go, Pete. We fixed it for ya.

The Blue Wave Awakens
Forty-seven lawmakers are quitting, chaos is spreading, Republicans are exposed, and Democrats are quietly preparing to turn this mass exit into a historic political advantage in 2026.

Steven Cash explains our“strange bedfellows” principle: resisting an emerging autocrat requires broad coalitions of groups that don’t usually work together, as seen in successful pro-democracy movements overseas. He notes that the Steady State is experiencing this dynamic firsthand.

MTG has been in Congress since 2020 & is resigning Jan 5, 2026. I just want to point out one thing.
She spent 5 years attacking the left & never feared for her life.
She spent 5 weeks mildly critiquing MAGA & the backlash is so severe she is resigning.
5 years vs 5 weeks. That says it all.
