Reminder that in Trump's 1st term he deported 1.9M undocumented immigrants. In Joe Biden's 1st & only term he deported 4M. Double.
Also, being in the US and existing as an undocumented immigrant in and of itself is not a criminal offense. It is a civil offense. @mdg650hawk.bsky.social

There was a time when Republicans speculated about whether Trump could become Speaker of the House.
In many ways, it appears he already is.

Maybe so many members of Congress think the stock market is an accurate reflection of the economy because they spend so much time trading stocks.
Prohibiting members of Congress from trading stock is a total no brainer.

🚨Tonight, Virginia voters sent a message: they want sensible leaders who get things done.
Congrats to Kannan Srinivasan and JJ Singh on your special election victories in Loudoun County!
They’ll protect our public schools, help make Virginia more affordable, and defend every Virginian’s rights.

🚨BREAKING: Democrats have secured HUGE victories in two Virginia special elections. They have held onto seats in SD32 and HD26, ensuring that Democrats will remain in control of the House AND the Senate. This is a big deal.

Congratulations Kannan Srinivasan and JJ Singh!
Virginia’s General Assembly will remain blue—a huge Democratic win to start 2025.

I left FB. No regrets.
If you think only billionaires can control social media, You are absolutely wrong. Social media is completely dependent on its users. Think about why you do or did use FB, ThreadsTik tok or Twitter. It's because they have enough users. Take away all the "normies" and they all are worthless

I invited Officer Daniel Hodges to witness the peaceful transfer of power that his heroism four years ago made possible.
We must ensure the violence he endured never happens again. And that our democracy remains strong.

The Senate will soon hold hearings on Trump’s Cabinet picks. At least four are dangerously unqualified.
Will Senate Republicans have enough integrity to vote against them?
Some thoughts.

We convened. We did our jobs. Now, we move on to the business of governing for the American people.
Because that is what our oaths demand of us.
