These are good moments to remember that the CEOs of all the biggest companies in America are happy to go to White House dinners and slap this guy’s back. They do not care about this. Remember this, years from now, when they want you to forget.

You get those clips of Jeffries speaking to potential voters who worry there's very little difference between elected Democrats and Republicans?

Sure did boss, nice and demoralizing, just like you asked
Jeffries: "The border is secure. That's a good thing. It happened on his watch. He wants to claim credit for it, of course he'll get credit for that. In terms of making sure that we actually deal with the issues that matter, including on immigration, there's a lot that's left to be desired."

I’m kind of new to the Democrats, but I thought we were FOR respecting the legal process, and also that we were AGAINST political corruption. And that it was especially important to hold to these principles at this time.

But I guess there’s some insider memo I didn’t get that would set me straight?

Congressman Henry Cuellar was indicted for money laundering, bribery, and conspiracy, allegedly taking about $600,000, mostly from Azerbaijan, to influence U.S. policy.

President Donald Trump pardoned Cuellar, because Trump supports money laundering, bribery, and conspiracy.
Trump announces a pardon of Henry Cuellar: "I am hereby announcing my full and unconditional PARDON of beloved Texas Congressman Henry Cuellar, and Imelda. Henry, I don’t know you, but you can sleep well tonight — Your nightmare is finally over!"

The NY Times said Trump labeling Somalis as “garbage” was “shocking in its unapologetic bigotry.” Then NYT put the story on Page 13. When Trump called for “termination” of the Constitution in 2022, NYT put it on Page 13, too. In case you wonder if NYT has learned anything in the last 3 years. 1/🧵

The complaint names Pete Hegseth as the perpetrator, saying he “was responsible for ordering the bombing of boats like those of Alejandro Carranza Medina and the murder of all those on such boats.” It also claims that Hegseth’s conduct was “ratified” by Trump.

I know the racism doesn't care and it's not the main point, but Omar has lived in the United States since she was 13, thirty years ago. She became a citizen when she was 17, twenty five years ago. She's an American by law but also just substantively, she's spent her entire adult life as an American.

The truth is that none of us are garbage, and the job of the US president is to represent all of us.

The official policy of the Trump Administration is ignorant bigotry. We’re asked, under principles including charity, to assume that people support the administration despite that policy, not specifically because of it. I am increasingly unwilling to extend that charity.
