Schumer said the Dems will "keep fighting". Keep fighting their own voters? Keep fighting off effectiveness? Keep fighting being held accountable for anything? As far as I can tell the Democratic leadership is good at one thing only now, which is sending fundraising messages to my phone.

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

Good morning.

Last night was a referendum on Trump's corruption, cruelty, and chaos.

But it's also not a coincidence these big wins came at the exact moment when Democrats are using our power to stand for something and be strong.

A huge risk to not learn that lesson.

I think a thing we'll learn tonight is that people fucking hate what is going on and they will straight ticket vote against anyone involved in starving people while pillaging the country and kidnapping their neighbors. I don't think it matters at all who that person is.

People fucking hate this guy. They fucking hate ICE. They fucking hate how much power he has. He is at 63% overall disapproval to 37% approval. That's lower than their poll after January 6th. And this poll was done before he started intentionally starving people. I wish our media would reflect this.

Trump is head of the DOJ and demanding we pay him $230 million because, though guilty, he forced DOJ to drop the case, and now he is AGAIN a pathetic, whiney VICTIM. L

Every Republican needs to speak up or be asked about this by media. The grifter is grifting.

This is what a Republican cover-up looks like. Mike Johnson has been keeping the House in recess for weeks now so lawmakers can't vote on releasing the Epstein files. Instead of assurances from known liars, RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES.
Comer: "The evidence we've gathered does not implicate President Trump in any way. Public reporting, survivor testimony, and official documents show that Bill Clinton had far closer ties to Epstein. We're working to bring former President Clinton in for a deposition, but Democrats aren't helping"

The House Republicans who spent the last week insisting that the No Kings rallies were going to be filled with terrorists who hate America are now back at the very same lectern insisting that the Epstein Files have nothing to do with Donald Trump at all.

I am completely awestruck by the ease with which Mike Johnson lies on a daily basis. I'll never understand how such a transparently fraudulent "man of faith" can live with themselves. Life is too short to be that phony.

Christians have used Jews' refusal to accept Jesus as a justification to murder us for many centuries.

Has this also been deployed against non-Jews? Yes. Are Roy's comments offensive to other non-Christians? Doubtless.

But when Jews hear stuff like this, we remember how it's been used against us.

Oh it’s not appropriate for your program to air the president wearing a crown and shitting on American citizens?

You’ll talk about it in euphemisms? Maybe call it the “crown video” and ignore the shitting part? Because that’s appropriate?

Tell me, was it appropriate for the president to do it?

Today’s No Kings protests have shown two things:

1) Trump and MAGA Republicans inhabit a bubble that is nothing like real life in America. Fully disconnected.

2) They see themselves as powerful and unstoppable. They are neither.

This is not just hypocrisy or refusal to call out issues on his own side.

It's that he agrees, he's explicitly and happily on their side, and they are part of the movement he and Trump have been bringing into the mainstream for a decade.

ABOLISH ICE and EXPAND THE SUPREME COURT should be mainstream Democratic promises and talking points.

But timidity and civility will rule the day and screw the rest of us and this country in the end.

very funny that JD Vance has so little to do with his time that he goes on podcasts to defend 30-year-old men for saying how much they love Hitler
JD Vance dismisses Young Republicans who in a group chat said "I love Hitler" and joked about slavery and rape as "a bunch of kids" who "told stupid jokes" and adds that "most of the stupid things I did when I was a teenager and young adult, they're not on the internet."

the president using the office to punish americans that didnt vote for him should really be one of the biggest scandals in americas history
Trump is upfront in saying he will use the shutdown to punish Democrats, and here are the receipts. About $27.2 billion cut from Dem districts compared to about $0.7 billion in GOP districts.
We all complain about the media, but need this type of in-depth journalism.

Let’s not forget that every single Republican who stands by and enables Donald Trump could stop this recklessness today, tomorrow or any damn day of the week. Their failure—their refusal—to do so makes them complicit in his crimes and the crimes of his corrupt, lawless regime.

Does the administration ever attempt to justify its pro-epidemic policies? Or is this just Trump's "if you hide the numbers, it's not a crisis" theory of public health taken to the most dangerous extreme?
