Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

What do you call humans being kidnapped and sent to another country to be imprisoned in shackles and forced to perform intense physical labor while living in horrid conditions under the threat of daily physical violence and rape?
Open a history book. You can do it. I believe in you.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.
If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Chris Hayes: Fact-checking the GOP's fearmongering about trans Americans
Given how much emphasis the GOP has put on this, it's worth asking: What is the scale of the issue we are talking about?

You’re looking at the reason I became a Democrat.
In 1999, when I was 15 years old in Brooklyn NY, I volunteered to help a local campaign for City Council.
I was naive back then, but I always viewed government as the best way to help people. My parents were Republican and so I just went along.

I miss Jonathan Lemire and Willie Geist so turned on Morning Joe. Watched about 2 minutes and then Mika and Joe came on and had to turn the channel. Not sure I can ever watch them again.

There is a fake account that is in no way affiliated with Speaker Pelosi pretending to be her. I reported it the other day and it’s still up.

Starting a phony transgender bathroom debate and hiding behind the guise of “protecting women” to distract from your attempts to push through the confirmations of alleged rapists, sex traffickers, and fraudsters at the highest levels of government is peak Republican Party.

Friendly reminder: The USG spends $290 billion on personnel. If you fired EVERYONE who worked for the federal government, you’d save 5% of the budget. You know where most of it goes? Defense and back to us in Social Security and Medicare.

Remember: fascism thrives on apathy.
The autocrats want you to tune out. They want to overwhelm you. They want you to give up.
Don’t give them want they want.
Stay in this fight. Remain vigilant. And let’s keep building.
