This is the most corrupt presidential administration in American history and it’s not even close.

They fought to stop Americans from getting food stamps while pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into their own pockets. www.propublica.org/article/kris...

🚨BIG changes happening -- ICE leadership is being purged tonight. The old guard, which prioritized targeted enforcement operations aimed at people with criminal records, is being replaced with Border Patrol and Gregory Bovino's "Midway Blitz" style.

Think things are bad now? It'll get worse.

Can you hit repost? Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn't want you to know the name of her opponent but will try every desperate attempt to save her seat.

My name is Shawn Harris. I am a Democrat, husband, father, Retired Brigadier General, farmer, and I'm running against MTG. Can you share and follow me?

Jeffries: "You got some people in the town who go to church and pray on Sunday, and then they come to Congress and prey on the American people. I'm not down with that kind of faith. That's not the faith that comes out of the Gospel."

Jeffries, still going strong 8 hours in: "Extraordinary to me, Mr.
Speaker, that you got folks in this town talking about draining the swamp. Guess what. You are the swamp ... we've never seen anything like this -- the type of corruption that has been unleashed on the American people."

Can this guy live on $15,650 for a year?

Today would have been our 6th wedding anniversary. My husband died of Lewy Body and mixed dementias last March at age 64. He wrote a song for me for our wedding in 2019. We met in 1983, went our separate ways and reconnected in 2010. I made a video, it's linked below if you'd like to listen. 😊🥰

“Forget about intelligence” is a pretty good mantra for this administration
Host: Are you saying the US did not see intelligence that the Supreme Leader had ordered weaponization?

Rubio: That’s irrelevant

Host: No, that's a key point

Rubio: No it’s not… Forget about intelligence

I was hoping to get this binding done tonight, but I still have another side after this one.

Are you a handstitch binder? Or do you feel the need for speed? 🤔😊🧵🪡🧵

I am on medication that suppresses my immune system. Last summer I left bags of dirt sitting in the hot sun, (bad idea!!!) and legionella bacteria grew inside. If you garden and have a compromised immune system wear a mask and gloves. I was in ICU for a week and nearly died. #gardening

I cannot stop saying this. If your employer has a 401k plan u definitely need to sign up. If they don't, find a financial planner. My husband died of dementia & the number of people in my support group who have no money is staggering. No money means no choices!!! #startsaving

HASSAN: What is habeas corpus?

NOEM: Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country

HASSAN: That's incorrect

The Rules Committee meets at 1 AM on Tuesday night/ Wednesday morning to ram through this disastrous bill. Why? Because they don't want you to see them ripping healthcare from millions of Americans.

You do not hold a hearing for a bill at 1 AM unless you're completely ashamed of it.

This was a favorite of mine. I donated it to the people of Western North Carolina after the hurricane last year destroyed many homes. I'm thinking I need to make another like this!
