All these so-called “independent” Republicans will go right back to voting for Johnson as speaker, confirm every Trump nominee, vote with Trump on everything, and continue doing zero oversight on his corrupt regime. A vote for any one of them is a vote to continue all of that.

#AZ Our water was being sold off to foreigners. Your medical debt was crushing you. Families couldn't afford childcare. Katie Hobbs canceled foreign water grabs. Erased $2 billion in medical debt for a millions. Cut childcare costs by 2/3. 100,000 new jobs! Re-elect Katie Hobbs! #ResistanceUnited

Ukraine was winning the war, so Trump kneecapped Ukraine to help Russia. I wish it weren’t that simple, but it is. Our president is in bed with our enemies.

Trump helps Russia's economy as he obliterates ours, helps Russia's war machine while he guts our national security, serves Putin while he ignores Americans.

Republican politicians are *obsessed* with schoolchildren coming home a different gender because of pro-trans teachers, WHICH NEVER HAPPENS. But they are completely indifferent to schoolchildren not coming home *at all* because of guns, WHICH HAPPENS ALL THE TIME!

My oldest daughter, who is also an attorney, has said these things to me as well. When your life is built around the law, all of these blatant criminal acts must be even more frustrating.

It's almost like putting a quack anti-vaccine conspiracy theorist in charge of the nation's health policy has consequences. "The United States has now had more measles deaths in the past two years than we have had in the previous three decades combined...": www.ms.now/news/pennsyl...

#AZLD14 Stephanie Walsh is my choice for state senate. The GOP have had long enough to act on behalf of this district & have not delivered. Walsh will focus on affordability & the economy, strong public schools, reliable energy & water protection. Vote for Stephanie! #Pinks #ProudBlue #OneV1

This is psychosis. The president of the United States is psychotic. Is the media going to start talking about this, or continue to normalize it?

The same Brendan Carr who wanted to investigate NBC because Kamala was on SNL? The same Brendan Carr who wanted to dismantle independent fact checking and accused them of being a “censorship cartel?” Periodic reminder that the corruption is a feature, not a bug.

This thread should scare the shit out of sane Americans. We’re about to become, if not already there, a police state run by these IT billionaires

I, for one, am *not* convinced that Peter Thiel’s supposed criticism of the second Trump administration is sincere. His fingerprints are all over Trump 2.0, and it’s more than “just” JD Vance. 1/
