A standing ovation for Beto calling on Schumer to resign. These are not normal times. People are ready to oust Democrats that bow down to Trump. Some driving 2 hours to see Beto and Walz speak. Will be posting more clips from their town hall.

Prison rape is wrong.
Jokes about prison rape are wrong.
Eliminating protections against prison rape is wrong.
If another country sentenced a criminal to be raped, we'd consider it a crime against humanity.
BUT
A large segment of Americans regard prison rape as a de facto part of the sentence.

Adam Schiff doesn’t support expanding the court or even removing any of the justices on it.
So the Roberts Court has his complete and total endorsement.

The Roberts Court will go down in history as having upheld the desires of Donald Trump and the GOP, rather than its commitment to justice, precedent or the rule of law.
Today’s ruling — which substitutes its own fact finding for that of the lower court — is yet another example.

There’s no such thing as the “genuinely disabled”.
You are not entitled to a person’s entire medical history just so you can decide whether to believe them or not.
