Q: Do you owe it to the American people to at least negotiate?

THUNE: Well, I think we have negotiated. I don't know what there is to negotiate.

I’m less concerned about part of the White House being torn down, and more concerned about the fact that it’s being replaced with a $250m privately funded ballroom. I don’t think people who intend to leave office in 3 years typically spend a quarter of a billon on a 4 year construction project.

Quick question. Why does literally everything require you to have an account.

Enough is enough. Adelita Grijalva was elected on September 23. The people of Arizona have a right to be represented in Congress.
 
During today’s pro forma session, when the House is called to order I will seek unanimous consent to insist upon the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva.

Stop calling them the “J6ers.”
Call them the January 6th terrorists.
Because that is what they are.

There are tens of millions of Americans who now hate Anthony Fauci but they couldn’t tell you why if you asked them.

America: a nation so backward and out-of-step with the rest of the planet that a plurality of its voters failed to learn even basic skills in schools— and now insist that others be denied the chance to do so, as well.

When Alexander Hamilton said, “The masses are asses,” he had no idea.

Hey if you guys are really, really, really good—like if you don’t rape anyone, steal classified documents, obstruct the FBI, or attempt a coup—maybe Santa will bring you one of these for Christmas

I am thankful for a social media site that’s not run by disinformation-pushing maniacal billionaire, not controlled by an algorithm design to censor news and much-needed debate, and not overrun by mean-spirited people who encourage and celebrate ignorance. Thankful, indeed.

Because millions of Americans didn't vote, Canada's resources will be ransacked by the same Republicans that normalized rapists. As for Russia, they pretty much get whatever they want, starting with Alaska or Ukraine.

I'm grieving for America, but the world is about to be stripped for parts.

If enough people don’t care about democracy, it is endangered.
And just like that, Donald Trump gets away with his insurrection. Something that would have never happened in any other democratic country on earth. Astonishing.
The January 6th case against Donald Trump is dismissed without prejudice by Judge Chutkan.

Six months ago my wife said “he’s gonna get away with it.”

Remember, they didn't cut Matt Gaetz loose because he paid a 17-year-old for sex.

They cut him loose because too much evidence was coming out proving he'd paid a 17-year-old for sex.
