Retired teacher. Tired of having to protest for “justice for all” since the 60’s. I saw the Roe decision come into being and now stolen away mainly by arrogant, misogynist, hypocritical men of SCOTUS.

Dems need to stop being so damn polite. Taking the high road has brought us to this Hell. The GOP needs to know that they won’t be forgiven for their incompetence, hatred & fealty to trump. When we take back the House we won’t forget their lies & smears. Dems need to spread truths loudly & clearly

I don't give a damn if the media is calling a landslide. Get your ass to the polls anyway! Complacency is how we lose. Drop the comfort, lock in, and vote like democracy depends on it—because it does!

It would be nice if someone could explain this community note to him. Having a president with a basic understanding of how trade works doesn’t seem like a ton to ask. Meanwhile our farmers are getting crushed.

Todd Blanche: “I am not sure of the uproar of having a Border Patrol or ICE agent at a polling location. What's the risk?” Uhm, maybe because it’s illegal? Federal statute 18 U.S.C. § 592 prohibits deploying “troops or armed men” to locations where elections are held. An AG should know this.

A TV talkshow host running the Pentagon? A podcaster running the FBI? A kook with no medical background running the National Institute of Health? A home builder with no intelligence as Director of National Intelligence? Gamers as air traffic controllers? This is not a serious administration.

These betting market things contribute *nothing* useful to society. Regulate them and shut them down. They will be a menace if MAGA contests the results of the midterms—which they will.

So brave Cadet Bone Spurs hid in an airport catering truck, leaving the White House Press Corps to be targets if Iran attacked Air Force One with Russia's help. Always the selfish, frightened coward, that one.

Bathroom rug head Rand Paul never gave a shit about the orange felon invoking the 5th amendment 450 times to avoid committing perjury because he’s an actual criminal unlike American hero Dr. Fauci who invoked it to protect his words from being used as propaganda by assholes like Rand.

What if hostile foreign governments were able to control social network algorithms in the United States, suppressing information vital to our survival as a democracy? That would be weird.

The really funny thing about those documents released last night? They don’t claim that a single vote was changed. They don’t claim that databases were manipulated. But they had their intended effect - the paid GOP shills are going crazy this morning

This is good news if accurate. Fox watchers may finally have identified the endless stream of lies they spew.

Did you hear, Fox News dropped 19% in total viewers and 43% in key demo across primetime? MS NOW is the only major network to GROW its audience compared to June 2025. I don’t watch mainstream media, but this is an excellent start. I’m not keen on MS Now either, but it’s better than Fox News.

They know they did it and they are responsible. Which is why they will continue to stonewall this. Good for the reporter to keep asking about it and not let this go, because they are counting on people just moving on.

Statement from Annie Farmer on meeting with Todd Blanche: "After meeting with Todd Blanche, I feel even more confident in urging senators to vote against his confirmation as the United States' Attorney General. "I found him abrasive, condescending, and intentionally noncommittal to survivors."

Jack Smith on MS NOW: "I've seen a number of cases, James Comey, Letitia James, Jerome Powell. I mean, right? There's not criminality here. I mean, seashells? So the only reasonable explanation is the president has it out for these people. And he has people … who are going to do what he says."

For all those complaining about the upcoming wedding of Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce, remember they are hardworking individuals. They have the freedom to plan their wedding as they see fit. Importantly, they have donated $26 million to New York charities this week. Here’s a list of those charities:
