Me, during the Oct 2020 debates, kicking Pence's ass, in the midst of Covid, and undoubtedly influenced by couple of drinks and too many YouTube free kickboxing classes. The childish sound effects were me too.
Thanks, husband...
Hakeem Jeffries rebuttal to Steve Scalise’s dishonest representation of the one big ugly bill is masterful.

Does Trump realize that Foreign Assistance for each nation can be found right on their own dot gov site??
Canada- um... 200 billion? no.

Where is Susie?
February 26, 2025 at 5:19 PM
Um...Are you surprised?
Trump states that Lee Zeldin will be cutting 65% of the EPA funding.
February 26, 2025 at 5:03 PM
It's sinking in, and I hope our country doesn't cave in.
Democracy and justice are the "waste, fraud, and abuse" that MAGA wants to cut.

Been watching the Senate floor?
If was rating the best: Whitehouse, Murphy, Schiff.
I like Welch- but his voice could be used in the Calm app and zzzz. Oh. What? Oh.
I’m still watching.

I can’t believe it’s only the 16th fucking day.

Trying to substantiate the illegal control that Musk has been exercising in multiple Federal Departments... she offers that people DID elect him...

Margorie Green:
After Pres. Trump was shot, Elon Musk got behind him and said, "I am willing to serve". This is DOGE....This is what they voted for.

This douche!
In response to House Dem questions / statements regarding expected or illegal planned cuts to programs by Elon Musk:

Eli Crane: R- Arizona 2nd District:
"Mr. Chairman, can we get some therapy dogs in here for my colleagues on the other side of the aisle?"

I seem to remember a fight of biblical proportions over the land known as Israel going on since, well, forever…

I’m ssssuuuuurrre there will be no objections to this zealot just snatching up the property. Like. As a favor.

Does Trump already have plans for a golf course in Gaza- what the fuck!
February 5, 2025 at 12:20 AM
Bibi really knows how to butter the toast.
Either way- I think both of them are gross.

I’ve seen, through my years, many world leaders lie
But this time, it seems worse.
This time, nations will die.
February 5, 2025 at 12:09 AM
No way! “The US will take over the Gaza Strip”.

And Countries in the area of “great wealth” should help Gaza’s population.

Isn’t that the kind of help that USAID used to do? Do as I say- not as I do.

So Defund the Police, (FBI) and defund the Schools with is now a Republican mantra?

Looking east toward Manhattan. Good morning.

Ditto- only tonight it’s Philly. Jeez
Tonight’s DC air collision feels like an ominous metaphor.

Does anyone else see the irony that Kash's mother and father fled their countries due to violence and came to the US via Canada?

Has Grassley been hired by Steve Bannon?
Sure sounds like he has.

Kennedy talks about emergency surgery- like an emergency abortion, like it's some optional surgical cosmetic procedure saying: Who would want a doctor that is morally opposed to performing a procedure to perform it on them?

I'll tell you who- EVERYONE that's having an emergency!
January 29, 2025 at 4:15 PM
Kennedy Jr. can't even field lobbed softballs.
To a Senator Cornyn:
"Americans don't like the ACA, Medicare or Medicaid. They like private healthcare".
January 29, 2025 at 4:05 PM
Kennedy criticizes the SNAP program for his claim that 10%
is spent on sugary drinks.

He left out that Trump attempted to entirely defund SNAP yesterday.

RFK Jr to the Senate Committee:
If I'm made the Secretary of HHS, I'll heal everyone...💀

Leavitt: We're THE most transparent...

Reporters: Who will be affected by the cuts/freeze??

L: <impatiently> I've answered this questions 3-4 times already!

Rs: So, let's go through which organizations were cut.

L: I don't have that whole list.
January 28, 2025 at 7:03 PM
Karoline Leavitt, Trump Press Secretary's first presser is like watching an infomercial for replacing your bathtub with walk-in shower.

Only thing missing is someone crying "It's perfect!"
