Newsom: "That $400m Qatari plane? That's not a $400m gift. It cost you $936m. That was what was appropriated as he's cutting food stamps and cutting your Medicaid. He put a billion dollars in the Pentagon budget to retrofit his private plane because that's going with him after the presidency ... "

Beshear needs to do what Mitch would do in his shoes. The law they made to stop Beshear from appointing a replacement violates the state constitution. Make the friggin' appointment!!! Make them prove he's alive or take you to court (which will prove he's not alive).

wkyt.comGov. Beshear suggests he received information suggesting McConnell ‘passed’ in new interviewThe governor said he received the information from diffrent agencies but did not say which during the July 15 interview.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

AOC: I said this a couple of weeks ago: I would not be surprised if, when ICE funding started up again, we would start to see more civilian deaths at the hands of ICE. And that’s exactly what has happened. We didn’t see things like this happening with the same degree when we froze ICE funding.

This man makes me wish I lived in Georgia so I could vote to reelect him to the Senate. I guess I'll just have to wait to vote for Jon Ossoff @ossoff.bsky.social when, hopefully, the Dems draft him to run for President! 🇺🇸 #AwesomeOssoff2028

Jon Ossoff@ossoff.bsky.social

To this day, this man makes excuses for those who carried out an attack to throw out your votes and install a defeated President.

Ossoff: I don’t know if you saw the mess in Washington last week. The president was so humiliated in Hormuz, he threw his toys out of the stroller and refused to sign the affordable housing bill.

Phang: Inside his order, Judge Sullivan said that I am likely to succeed on the merits of my lawsuit, which speaks to the bigger success. Because the ultimate goal is the entirety of the Epstein files being produced, including the shit that Blanche continues to sit on…

There's nothing else to do at the reflecting pool but loiter. It's literally the whole reason it exists, it's a public space where people are invited to linger and loiter.

“Loitering is not permitted in this area. Please proceed to a designated location. Thank you for your cooperation,” a surveillance machine tells a small cluster of National Guard members as they patrol the fenced off Reflecting Pool in the rain.

AOC on how Democrats should respond to SCOTUS weakening VRA: “And so if Republicans are going to redraw North Carolina, if they're going to redraw Texas, if they're going to redraw and gerrymander every one of their states, then unfortunately, we have to provide balance to that”

The DOJ violates the Epstein Files Transparency Act on the daily. So I'm suing Todd Blanche. As a journalist, I cannot report accurately on the Epstein Files if I cannot even read them. I am represented by @brendanballou.bsky.social & we seek to hold the DOJ accountable for its noncompliance.

Dear Media: Blindly quoting the President without fact-checking or context is just misinformation with a press pass. We don’t need stenographers; we need journalists. Do your job.

The richest 10% of Americans own roughly 87% of stocks. The richest 1% alone own roughly half of all stocks. It's worth pointing out once again that the stock market is not the economy.

KERNEN: We'd never be able to send anyone back if you needed a judicial warrant every single time RAND PAUL: Well, I don't think that's true. Obeying the 4th Amendment of the Constitution shouldn't be too difficult. It's something we fought the revolution over.
