Stop telling people to do their own research Start encouraging them to educate themselves Until they’re educated on an issue they can’t do quality research. It’s ridiculous that Sam4321 now thinks they’re qualified to debate an expert in any field

We are all Jane Doe & today Amy Acton is more than most Vivek & Vance are the 7 Husted & other politicians who don’t condemn that ad are the 50 who saw the text & didn’t go but didn’t tell anyone either The Republican Party protects rapers & pdfiles because that is who they are

It’s time for Democratic candidates to promise every American a MuskRat Rebate & fight to give us the tax money he stole from US!

Ashley Hinson accepted over half a million dollars in campaign contributions from Big Pharma — then voted to cut Medicaid for 110,000 Iowans… in a state facing a major cancer crisis. Ashley Hinson is profiting off of making Iowans' health care more expensive.

I am loving their midterm strategy! Trump makes sure EVERYONE knows he IS on the ballot. Mike Johnson keeps reminding everyone that Democrats will stop & investigate the entire administration. Vance talks obsessively about Tallerico giving him free press. GO BLUE WAVE 🌊

When you brag about being great friends with dictators it seems disingenuous to act shocked when prosecutors investigate you.

I'm convinced that AI is a modern day ‘Frankenstein’ story. A monster created by piecing others together who accurately and tragically reflects the morality of the creators

When you read the article linked I encourage you to keep scrolling and read more. Every article is dystopian and highlights how far this administration and this weak and corrupt the current republican party is. We have to take our country back!

The entire presidential television press pool — Fox, ABC, CBS, NBC, and CNN — has agreed to suspend coverage in the wake of Trump’s decision to ban CNN, Politico, and MS NOW from the White House

It is so much worse than anyone can imagine. He has bankrupted us and is selling our country for scrap.

Miller being giddy and unable to contain his giggle has my stomach churning about what all of this is really code for. Very real people are going to suffer very badly if they get away with what they’re plotting

A VP threatening to crack down on fraud all the while his president boss has #IRS immunity and has lost his #CapitalOne accounts because of möney launderïng. How is this real⁉️ Meanwhile Miller smirking 🤔

History will regard Dr. Anthony Fauci as an American hero who courageously fought to save innocent lives being threatened by a heartless government consumed by apathy and ignorance.

1/ "When the FBI assembled its surveillance operation against Ghislaine Maxwell in the summer of 2020, agents compiled a file on all her siblings. The document lists eight Maxwell children by name, with passport numbers and U.S. travel records." "One is flagged with three asterisks—Kevin Maxwell."

5/ "LPF’s July 15 investigation into the Maxwell family traced Christine Maxwell’s role at Information on Demand, the company tied to Robert Maxwell’s sale of PROMIS software to Sandia National Laboratories in 1985." "The FBI’s own files also include an allegation tied directly to Zorro Ranch."

There are good reasons the U.S. Constitution requires congressional authorization for this sort of military action.

The decimation of our federal agencies has upended the lives of thousands of workers. These are the people who oversee food safety, public health, and much more. The squalor of this moment is bringing us back to basics — and reminding us of what our priorities should be. [Cartoon by Adam Zyglis]

Buttigieg: The fact that the Trump admin deleted references to 4 American service members killed in action b/c that simple and tragic reality complicates their narrative that we're not at war, when everybody knows that we are, shows how far from reality they are. I think voters are fed up with it.

If Andy Beshear doesn’t call for a special election before August 3rd and force Mitch McConnell to prove he can speak in a video, then Andy Beshear becomes the new Merrick Garland. I’m sorry but I make the rules.

Let’s be clear…he released documents that confirm: 1) Russia Russia Russia is facts 2) China interfered FOR him 3) The interference happened while HE was President & not Biden The threat to a free & fair election is HIM! We should absolutely remove that threat!

A lot of folks, including Mainers, need to take a long look at why they ignored the red flags and embraced the hype around Graham Platner. A man who came from privilege, packaged himself as a struggling oyster farmer, and turned that story into political currency got way too far. 2.

I have never felt comfortable with the controversy stirring around him but didn’t imagine he wasn’t vetted AT ALL?!? Or that those who did thought this would all stay hidden? Or no one would care? WTF is wrong with the Democratic Party?

Christopher Webb@cwebbonline.com

Lawrence O’Donnell dismantles the myth of Graham Platner. And warning signs were there all along. Information was publicly available, but ignored. Maybe the U.S. Senate shouldn’t be someone’s first political job. No public office. No real vetting. Hype isn’t a substitute for scrutiny. 🧵

It is absolutely terrifying to watch this man be allowed to go in public and show the world how destroyed his brain is becoming every single day. They aren’t even making an effort to hide it!

Judge Lewis Kaplan has just ordered $5 mil plus post judgment interest disbursed to E Jean Carroll’s lawyers (out of the money Trump paid into the court’s fund to guarantee satisfaction of the judgment.)

Make no mistake - this IS fascism. We are living under fascism. As we vote in primaries please remember that DESPITE THIS if you live in a blue state you are SAFER, HEALTHIER & MORE PROTECTED from the impact and effects of fascism. Do not comply! RESIST!
