The MAGA Gang is desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it. In between the finger-pointing, there was grieving.

Just spoke with my CDC sources. They said RFK Jr. has ordered officials to hide tuberculosis cases, even as three active TB cases were just reported in Maine. He’s also suppressing bird flu reports. Pandemics don’t start with viruses they start with secrecy. RFK Jr. must resign now!

The United States is the only country in the entire world that allows politicians to draw the political districts/boundaries. The only country in the world that allows the politicians to choose their voters instead of the other way around. www.reddit.com/r/law/commen...

We need to start using the correct words. Immigrants aren't being deported. They're being sent to concentration camps. Medicaid isn't being cut, the money is being stolen so billionaires can have more and to fund more concentration camps. It's not Republican party, it's the Nazi party.

Good to know that when it's Democrats turn, they can "set the baseline" so that any budget bill has zero impact on the budget, bypassing the Parliamentarian. Therefore you can spend however much you want! Universal healthcare is back on the menu boys! www.cnbc.com/2025/07/01/t...

What's even worse, they might have ALREADY sent US citizens there and we wouldn't know, because they're not giving any due process. They are literally just snatching people in unmarked vans and then less than 24 hours later they're on a plane to El Salvador never to return. Who was snatched? Dunno

"There literally is no due process anymore. I lost my job at an immigration detention facility because Trump made it so anyone detained must be deported within 24 hours. That caused my site to only have 5-10 detainees at a time, which wasn't enough to keep it open." www.reddit.com/r/pics/s/ctA...

"Facilitate" but not "effectuate"? Fine, the district court judge is a lawyer and, presumably, knows how to write like one-- even if you are dealing with a Monkey's Paw situation. Spell it out, Judge. Order them to take the exact actions they would take if they actually wanted him returned.

Trump could say, "We've increased the chocolate rations from 5g/week to 10g/week" and not only would the MAGAs believe it, they'd blame Biden for instituting the fictional rationing in the first place.

The queen of cover-ups strikes again. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/27/u... Too bad they weren't using Signal to talk about arson at a Tesla dealership, then it might be worthy of her attention... This administration is a joke. Our country is a joke because of this administration.

nytimes.comBondi Suggests Signal Chat Episode Is Unlikely to Be Criminally Investigated (Gift Article)The attorney general said the focus should be on the success of the U.S. military strike in Yemen, not on military information being shared in advance in a group text among top officials.

Maybe in 4 years, progressives sweep the House/Senate/Presidency, replace Schumer/Jeffries with new leadership, drop the filibuster, overrule the parliamentarian, appoint 4 new Justices, rule Trump/Musk's actions as NOT official acts, with their heirs/estate financially liable... A boy can dream.

Cutting funding to the IRS, and firing people at the IRS, should be considered treason when it is a known fact that every $1 in funding brings back multiples. Our elected politicians are traitors and are robbing us blind. They don't care. They think there is nothing we can do about it.

They made TWO mistakes. First mistake was illegally using unapproved software (Signal) on unapproved devices (personal phones) to share classified information Second mistake was adding a journalist to the group chat The fact that Marco Rubio and others are only seeing mistake #2 is VERY telling.

www.nbcnews.com/politics/con... Schumer is NOT CAPABLE of fighting these battles! SENATE DEMOCRATS, you *MUST* remove him from leadership!!! If you don't, then you are just as complicit! Ever heard of a fucking VOTE OF NO CONFIDENCE? We need a miracle, come on please wake the fuck up!

"I don't recall" is not an acceptable answer for someone in the position of Tulsi Gabbard, when it comes to a text conversation that happened a few days ago. Possibility 1: she's lying to Congress Possibility 2: her memory is not adequate for the job she holds Either way...

"At 7:26 p.m., the judge’s written order was posted online. At that point, the third was still on the ground in Texas. At 7:36 p.m., the third deportation flight, GlobalX Flight 6122, departed from Harlingen." -NYTimes Yes, Judge, they violated your order. What are you going to do about it?

I heard all the Tesla protests were peaceful. If any Tesla or Tesla dealerships are being set on fire or otherwise vandalized, it's probably MAGA supporters and the FBI doing it as a false flag operation. That's what everybody is saying.

The title of Senator Schumer's book? "Antisemitism in America: A Warning" Meanwhile he votes for and with nazi sympathizers. He tolerates the intolerant. He is a COLLABORATOR and he should resign, TODAY.

Cool so what happens if GOP attach a national abortion ban to a CR? You'll vote for that too? 🚮

U.S. Senator John Fetterman@fetterman.senate.gov

My YES vote is *not* an endorsement of this deeply flawed CR. My YES vote is 💯 about refusing to shut our government down. I refuse to punish working families and plunge millions of Americans into chaos.   I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever vote to shut our government down.

These traitorous Democrats just voted to cut Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid funding Chuck Schumer (NY) John Fetterman (PA) Catherine Cortez Masto (NV) Dick Durbin (IL) Brian Schatz (HI) Gary Peters (MI) Kirsten Gillibrand (NY) Maggie Hassan and Jeanne Shaheen (NH) Angus King (ME)

Republicans can use Reconciliation if they want this law. They want to wait on Reconciliation for extra tax cuts, and Schumer is playing right into their hands. They'll get a slush fund for Trump and they can still get massive tax cuts on a 50 vote. One of the dumbest political moves of all time.
