Buttigieg on Indiana: "The big part of how Trumpism works is to make you feel totally disempowered. To make him feel inevitable. And yet the clear takeaway from this is he is not unstoppable and you are not without power."

This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him.

I don’t know how else to say it…

“Marjorie is approaching members to get to nine who will oust the speaker,” one of the sources said. “And if we don’t get to work on codifying Trump’s agenda, anything can happen.”

New AP poll has Trump's approval on immigration down to an abysmal 38% as he rants psychotically about "shithole countries," smears Somalis, threatens large-scale denaturalization and remigration, and openly pines for more white immigrants and fewer nonwhite ones

Deadnaming a former Assistant Secretary of HHS and selfless public servant on her official portrait is an act of cruelty and a clear violation of basic dignity.

Admiral Levine served this country honorably. Targeting her, and all trans Americans, is bigoted, cruel, and completely unacceptable.

From @findoutpodcast.bsky.social : “611,000 Tennesseans are on subsidized ACA plans. The AVERAGE increase will be $16,000 per person per year.”😳

THIS is what @MarshaBlackburn & @SenatorHagerty just voted to do to you. A policy choice.

It's been 25 years since a blatantly corrupt SCOTUS decision changed the world.

We may never know who actually won, because they made sure we could never find out.

Imagine how different the world would be today.

🔥 @ossoff.senate.gov on the ACA subsidies extension vote: “This is life or death.”

(@SenatorHagerty & @MarshaBlackburn both opposed it - but as Ossoff reminds us they were quick to vote to let themselves put millions of taxpayer dollars in their own pockets recently🤔)

The most crucial thing about this scandal remains that Nuzzi wanted to suppress damaging information to both help Trump *and* to protect Kennedy's chances of becoming the Secretary of Child Murder should he win, and it worked: www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2025/12/a-ma...

We'll get through this. THANK YOU to our first responders.

Republicans voted for a trillion dollars in tax breaks for the 1%, but they couldn't vote to protect 20 million Americans from seeing a doubling — on average — of their health care premiums.

This is actually the fourth time Trump has failed to indict Letitia James:

1. Erik Seibert refused to
2. Lindsey Halligan wasn't lawfully appointed
3. DOJ tried again and failed last week
4. DOJ tried again and failed today
