In 1952, Richard Nixon's career was nearly derailed by revelations that he had access to a slush fund of $18,000 -- less than a quarter million today." People used to give a shit about that kind of thing, you see.

Imagine calling Renee Good and Alex Pretti “domestic terrorists” and calling immigrants “animals” then turning around and telling people they are the ones who need to “tone down their rhetoric.”

Unfortunately, this.

I'm not as worried about artificial intelligence as I am about natural stupidity.

Today would be a good day to fund the ACA and end the GOP shutdown.

A president who routinely gives orders attempting to rewrite history, is a president who's planning to commit atrocities.

This perfectly explains the current Government Shutdown…..

Shout out to the peaceful pro Democracy protestors along 66th in Richfield today. Thank you!

Even if you support massive deportation operations, under no circumstances should ANYONE be ok with US citizens being forcibly removed from their homes and detained without explanation. This is a clear violation of their constitutional rights and should universally condemned.

Just to be clear, illegal aliens are not eligible for federal health care dollars. The administration is lying to you. Democrats are not dying to get money for "illegals". They are trying to extend ACA subsidies for citizens.

I don't understand why a very unpopular president would want to deliberately inflict pain on the public. Including, I assume, his base, who are going to be impacted as well. It seems an odd flex for a guy who craves popularity so much.

Shout out and thanks to the protesters supporting democracy in the Kingsfield Neighborhood tonight.

My medical supplement is increasing by 50% in January. I'm terrified that Medicare will follow in kind. They want us sick or dead. Full stop.

I have been lax about acknowledging the local protests, but I have still been noticing them. To all participating, thank you.

Shout-out to the multiple protests in MN today. Thank you!

It is insane to me that the government can find money to pay ICE agents increasingly larger sums of money, yet teachers have to buy their own pencils.

Shout out to the pro Democracy protestors over Highway 100 and also along 66th Street in Richfield tonight. I see you and thank you!

trump** is just an old, fat man walking around on a roof. Gotta love Marc Elias! #keepingitreal

Shout out to the ICE protestors on the 42nd Street overpass. Thank you!

Shout out to the Project Democracy protest over Highway 100 as well as multiple protests on 66th in Richfield tonight. Thank you.

Shout out to the protestors on the 42nd Street overpass tonight. Thank you!

I can't listen to the lying, smarmy speaker of the house. Talking about faith, while stripping health care, and food assistance from his constituents. Louisiana, please take note and vote accordingly going forward.

What, exactly, are we celebrating tomorrow? Our cutting off healthcare to the needy to enrich the greedy? Our new concentration camps? Our dying economy? Our ditching due process? Our corruption? Our broken legislature? Our corrupt SCOTUS? Our ridiculous buffoon president? #FourthOfJuly

After he is out of office, and we hold him responsible for his crimes, can we please house him in the new FL "detention center"?

If we can't afford to help people living on the edge, we certainly can't afford to continue to subsidize the wealthy.

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida. If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

We are facing a serious threat to democracy, law, and liberty. The abuse of prosecutorial power to intimidate, investigate, and detain political opponents is upon us. It is a constitutional crisis. I will keep speaking out until public outrage overflows. I just hope it’s not too little, too late.

Shout out to the pro- democracy protestors on the 43nd Street overpass last night. Thank you!

I will provide an update on last night’s targeted shootings shortly: youtube.com/live/VHtHNAb...

"We will shoot you, graveyard dead. " This week, a Florida Sheriff used this threat issued to protesters. The idea of violence as a way to solve political disagreement has consequences. I am horrified by this political shooting. www.cnn.com/2025/06/14/u...

I’m not sure if you can overdose on schadenfreude but we’re about to find out

Sad, but true.

Shout out to the resisters on the overpass over Highway 100 this evening. Thank you.

This!!!

It’s hardly surprising that the same people who were fine with older Americans dying from Covid have no issues with cutting Medicare.

I wish journalists would stop framing political news as wins or losses for politicians or political parties. It’s an abrogation of our mission. Why do we keep doing this? Is the spending bill a win or loss for the American people? Who does it help? Who does it hurt? Is it sound policy? Fiscally?

The Trumper obsession with Harvard is a cringe-inducing drama around status envy.

Shout out to the healthy sized protest on the 42nd Street overpass in Minneapolis. Thank you!
