NEW: Judge Currie asks for complete grand-jury transcripts in the Letitia James case so she can assess Lindsey Halligan's level of involvement (and thus the extent to which the prosecution might be tainted). storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Donald Trump is abusing the pardon power as a means of rewarding his family, his allies & his wealthy donors.

I'm headed to the floor with @warren.senate.gov to attempt to pass a resolution condemning his pardon of crypto billionaire Changpeng Zhao—the latest in a long string of corrupt clemencies.

If the current administration ever ends, many people in (and around) it will need to be prosecuted. From influence peddling to flat-out murder, their crimes seem to accumulate each and every day.

Jeffries: "Do what leaders do as opposed to being missing in actio for 28 days while finding $40b to bail out a right-wing wannabe dictator in Argentina & destroying the historic parts of the WH so he can construct a ballroom where he'll be celebrated like a wannabe king. It's all outrageous stuff."

Senator Welch: "By a show of hands, do you believe the people who attacked law enforcement on January 6th should have been pardoned. "

Three of the five witnesses raised their hands supporting the pardons... Meanwhile this hearing is about political violence. Give me a f'in break 😡
It is the very opposite of "... not much."
Things are so mean-spirited right now, this made me tear up. In the gratuitously cruel age of Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, and Mike Johnson, it's comforting to be reminded that there still are decent human beings that walk amongst us. Thank you, Heretic Coffee in Portland.
Heretic Coffee in Portland, Oregon has announced that starting Nov 1st they will provide breakfast to those in the community who will be facing hunger due to SNAP benefits not being sent out in November.

Rep. Rosa DeLauro: "On the food stamp issue, the money is there! Let them not get away with saying they can't do it. Their political will isn't there to feed the people who rely on the SNAP program which is the most effective anti-hunger program in the USA."

I have an even worse feeling about THIS:
Trump is the very definition of a tyrant.

Thugs.
Houston, Texas ICE GOONS hospitalized a 16-year-old U.S. citizen on his way to school. The teen, a star football and soccer player, was violently detained alongside his father. Despite his cries for help, “I’m underage!” the agents tackled him, resulting in severe neck and back injuries.

welcome to America, where the idea that kids should have food gets you labeled some kind of communist
Johnson is Trump's Eunuch
Can someone please ask him how the GOP changed the 60 vote threshold twice in the last two months to approve 150+ trump appointees in one go? Cuz they are in charge and can change the rules to open the government. And they know it. They WANT the shutdown.
Mike Johnson: "Democrats are required to open the government. They keep saying, 'Republicans are in charge of government.' We aren't!"
... When Christian Nationalists overthrew Jesus Christ and installed Trump as their saviour.
When did making kids go hungry become a Christian value?

Fentanyl and coke are the new “weapons of mass destruction” lie. It’s Iraq all over again, folks. It’s always about controlling the oil.
