Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.
Hey, get in line behind *millions* of people, including Native Americans driven from their land and slaughtered, kidnapped Africans who were enslaved and lynched, women treated like property, LGBTQ people demeaned and treated like they didn’t matter, you crybaby, self-indulgent loser.
Why isn’t anyone talking about the severe mental illness that’s driving these rants claiming he won? He’s not delusional. He knows he lost —and yet he’s compelled to proclaim he didn’t. He gives away his derangement and debases himself every.damn.time. Full goose crazy.
Agreed. The whitewashing of the enormous harm he did is intolerable. Not to mention how totally he abased himself for adjacency to power… just stop. Speak the truth—the whole truth.
I find all of the posts from elected Democrats saying nice things about Lindsey Graham monumentally misguided and ultimately harmful. Elected Republicans have proven they are ruthless and disrespectful at every turn. I see no reason to play nice. Simply say nothing. That would be better.
You know that standard to not speak ill of the dead? This moment calls for an exception. Such craven abandonment of personal and professional values needs public recognition.
America has gotten to that last part of Monopoly where the game is effectively over and we're all just watching the Elites suck up all the money, nobody else is allowed to really keep playing the game & we're all getting more pissed by the minute.
Flip the damn board over already.
BBC isn’t backing down.
Trump sued them for $10 billion, which means discovery cuts both ways. So the BBC wants his phone logs, daily diaries, and communications.
They’re defending the case by asking: did their documentary damage Trump’s reputation, or did January 6 do that all by itself?
the way it works is that if i say, "i'm a black american," sam alito thinks that is "dividing people up by race." but if someone says, "get that jigaboo out of my country," alito thinks, "looks like nothing to me"
Alito authoring opinion saying fixing a racial gerrymander is also racist and then musing, 2 hours later, during oral argument about Trump's racist effort to end humanitarian protections against deportation for Haitians, about how he doesn't like dividing up people by race
I loathe this man so much
😱😱😱 And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media.
A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children.
Lets make this viral again 👇
For nearly 30 years - Democrats and Republicans gathered at Arlington National Cemetery to honor fallen women veterans. Trump and Hegseth canceled this year’s event. The Democratic Women’s Caucus decided to hold their own event. #Pinks
So is anyone keeping a running total on how much this corruption spree is supposed to be costing us?
📌$72 billion ICE expansion package
📌$1.8 billion slush fund for Trump allies claiming “persecution,” including Jan 6 rioters
📌$1 billion for Trump’s WH ballroom vanity project

Washington Gov. Bob Ferguson isn't playing around. He just signed an emergency law making it a felony for any election official to hand your private voter data to Trump's DOJ. Read how WA is building an impenetrable fortress:

Wow. This NYC pop up is 🔥
The Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein Memorial Reading Room is open as a public installation displaying all 3.5 million pages of the released and partially redacted Epstein files, printed and bound into 3,437 volumes.
This shouldn’t just stay in NYC. Take it on the road.
The Secretary of State attending a UFC fight while wartime diplomatic negotiations fail would generate an explosive, front-page, above-the-fold headline for any previous administration
May today be the day when Hungarians end the corrupt, illiberal rule of Viktor Orbán, sending a sign to the far-right movement and the Trump regime their days are numbered.

TRUMP: "I'm gonna fuckin' blow up all the fuckers! I wanna use all the bombs before I die! Helter skelter! Helter skelter! Race war! Race war! Fuck Easter and fuck you, too!"
NEWS: "Trump promises to strengthen military in early morning Easter greeting."
Two brilliant civil rights lawyers - one Asian American; one Black American. Both women. @aclu.org’s Cecellia Wang & @legaldefensefund.bsky.social’s @janainelson.bsky.social. They argued two of the most consequential cases in SCOTUS this year. This embrace is one of my favorite moments of the day.
I don't give a damn that he's cross dressing. I care that self-righteous, anti-LGBT, "family values" former DHS Secretary Kristi Noem has a huge skeleton in her closet that was likely blackmail material for foreign countries. And I care that she has tormented people and will now ask for grace.
A Dutch court has ruled Grok must stop generating non-consensual undressing images of Dutch residents worldwide and child sexual abuse material in the Netherlands, with €100,000-a-day fines for non-compliance, reports Ramsha Jahangir.
A single vote for Trump in the birthright citizenship case would be as bad as anything the Court has done since Bush v. Gore. This issue has been settled for more than a century. It is the jurisprudential equivalent of asking what 2+2 is. Any answer other than 4, something is deeply, deeply wrong.
He lost to Biden. He knows he lost. We all know he lost. He’s so humiliated. That’s what’s driving all this mess. Can we stop the pretense and the silly focus on non-existent election fraud and get back to saving our democracy? JFC.
Welp- today is the day.
Wish us luck, within a few weeks we will be the first pediatric specialty hospital in the state and are paving the way for other organizations to provide exceptional care and get reimbursed accordingly.
Medicaid cuts are making life a living hell, but this- this is a win.
In 24 hours, Republicans have blocked FIVE attempts from Democrats to fund TSA, FEMA, our cyber defenses, & Coast Guard while talks continue to rein in ICE & Border Patrol.
Republicans are holding TSA agents' paychecks hostage so they can give more $ to ICE, with no reforms.
Hey Supremes! He knows he lost and this whole years long election fraud chase is a red herring to cover his shame. Follow the evidence, dudes, and this will be a no-brainer.

This is our country. Donald Trump doesn't own America. He doesn't own the White House. Everything he does relies on our money.
We depend on Congress to represent our interests. They are failing us by allowing him to exploit our money for his personal interests. He & his party of sycophants must go.
We’ve never, ever had this before. A President completely untethered to truth. I mean completely untethered to truth. That’s such a bad thing. But you know what’s even worse? Way, way too many people don’t care. And way too much of the media no longer cares.

Trump: "Under our policies, prices for chicken, eggs, cheese, butter, potatoes, and fresh fruit are lower today by a lot than what I took office. Hotel rates, automobile prices, and rent payments are way down as well."
Sen. Murray: "I'm just sickened by this. To go into this war unprepared, to use outdated data, and to have this horrific thing happen where children were killed in a school sends a horrible message to those that are in a war with us and to our own constituents about what America's values are."
