Something unprecedented happened during my visit to the Gulf. For the first time in 20 years in Congress, I was denied entry to U.S. military facilities and even meetings with military leaders. An order from Hegseth - that applies to both parties - to hide the cost of the war.

Donald Trump incited a violent insurrection to reject the peaceful transfer of power & deny the people's will. He never should have been able to run again. GOP senators condemning Jack Smith for conducting a fact-based investigation as politics & worse are engaged in treachery of the worst order.

Interesting side of Hitler I was unaware of "Arguably Adolf Hitler’s greatest passion and pastime outside of his quest for world domination was his obsession with architecture and urban design." Here he is with a model of the 330-foot high triumphal arch he wanted. hitler-pics.com/2023/05/06/h...

Did anyone else get a Bluesky request for your phone number when you logged in? I thought it was sus so didn’t fill it in. Next time I came onto Bluesky, thst request was gone.

Sexual and physical abuse of women isn’t a partisan issue, it’s a national failure. What separates the two parties is whether they treat that failure as something to solve or something to excuse.

If Andy Beshear does not push this to a conclusion that either has him appointing McConnell's replacement, or McConnell reappearing, Beshear will be out of Democratic politics. We need rabble-rousers, not the same quiet, proper Dems who keep losing.

I'm never going to get over the fact that the president of the United States paid a woman more than $5 million after a jury found him liable for raping her. And he's still president. And people still support him. Never. Get. Over. It.

Thou shalt not whitewash a Senator’s lifelong racism and warmongering. You will all be remembered accordingly for your words and deeds.

Heinrich Himmler: "If we lose the war, the Allies will turn every committee of the occupation into an investigative body. They will go after the Reich leadership, the cabinet, the donors, and friends."

People who helped Donald Trump become president should be ashamed of themselves for having contributed to the degradation of our country.

Historians are going to have a hard time documenting how we completely defeated Iran on day one of the war only to offer them $300 billion three months later to stop fighting.

When you see the story about how the world now has its first trillionaire, and when you see the story about how laboratories in Congo have run out of supplies to test for Ebola, it is important to understand that in many ways these are the same story.

Talarico: Here's what real men don't do. They don't lie and cheat their way through life. They don't sell their soul to the highest bidder. Real men serve others, weak men serve themselves. So I welcome this debate. I don't think Paxton or Cruz are in a position to tell anyone what a real man is.

House Republicans just poured $70 billion more into Trump's mass deportation machine. That money could fund health care or feed the hungry. Instead, it will tear apart families and destroy lives. Every lawmaker who voted for it is responsible for the harm that follows.

Thou shalt boo the ever loving fuck out of Donald Trump when he shows up to the Knicks game in NYC. Boo him so hard he leaves immediately.

Private prison company GEO Group, which runs Delaney Hall, gave $1M+ to Trump's Super PAC in 2024 and his inauguration in 2025. Not only has Trump since rewarded GEO with billions in ICE contracts, but a top former GEO executive has now been named acting ICE director. Cashing in on cruelty.

This is easily the saddest time in American history. The absolute worst people are systematically destroying the country, and our system is completely failing to stop them.

Getting rid of most of the current Supreme Court justices and undoing all their terrible decisions is not sufficient. We have to restructure the Supreme Court so it can never again be corrupted in this way.

Leftists believe in a society that works for everyone. We want our taxes to pay for practical things like healthcare, education, childcare, housing, & public transportation instead of Isr*el, ICE, & war. Propaganda has lead many to believe that’s not possible. It absolutely is.

The richest man owns X. The second and fourth richest men control Google. The third richest man owns The Washington Post. The fifth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

Everywhere you look, Trump, his family members, his donors, his political supporters & his cronies are looting the US treasury, getting paid by foreign entities for policy favors, & getting no bid contracts. Criminal cases are dropped and convictions pardoned. The US govt is an ongoing crime scene.

We are 7 weeks into the most egregious stock market manipulations of our lifetime. Orchestrated by a crooked president and his underlings. Billions siphoned via false proclamations of ceasefires and peace talks. With the criminals in charge, every day is a crime spree.

Whew! Hillary Clinton this morning on the US-Iran talks that fell apart: “This is hard, disciplined effort that has to go into diplomacy to reach any results. And I don’t see this administration either wanting to do it or, frankly, being capable of doing it…”

Viktor Orban accomplished so much of what the Trump movement wants to accomplish here he ruled for 16 years and rewrote the rules in his favor and still, they threw him out and you know what? they did it by voting don’t let anyone tell you voting doesn’t matter

Somebody at MSN needs to zoom in on Bessents notes at this ridiculous cabinet meeting. Trump slurring…slumping, asleep off and on. Lutnick looking right at him as he sleeps.

Donald Trump is dying, & he knows it. He is losing the midterms, & he knows it. He’s getting impeached, & he knows it. He is losing his mind, & we all know it. Donald Trump is a man with nothing left to lose. Know that, & recognize the existential threat to the world it presents.

The day the Affordable Care Act passed was one of my proudest moments as president, because it meant that millions of Americans would have access to health care, some for the first time.

Presidents shouldn't be able to fire or interfere with their own investigations like Trump did with Mueller. They also shouldn't be eligible for office after committing treason, or be able to wage illegal wars or use the military to terrorize immigrants and citizens. None of this should be happening
