I'm hearing that a trump sycophant received a medal of freedom yesterday in the not a rose garden. To that I say...
Charlie who?

And, to the extent trump promises to cloak these criminal sycophants with immunity during his administration, that statute of limitations can be tolled (paused). You might want to re-think whether trump will give a tinker's damn about you when he leaves office... The answer is: He won't.

Congressional salaries and insurance benefits are intended for legislators who show up to do the work of the American people. They are not intended for cowards who shut down the government and hide at home to protect their criminal boss from exposure as a deplorable pedophile. #DisgracefulGOP

Trump continued to support Netanyahu even when it was clear to the world that he was committing genocide. He gets no praise from me for the ceasefire. Trump is an opportunistic monster who spoke against Israel only when it served his personal interests. By then, the body count was incalculable.

it would be naive to ignore the fact the his popularity took a hit after the 2024 election. He started as a staunch Biden supporter then turned on him in a very public way. Others did as well, but they didn't write op-eds slamming Biden. I get why people question his motives for the move to France.

Senator Dick Durbin is making opening comments as the Senate Judiciary Committee's Pam Bondi hearing gets underway. Durbin is detailing Bondi's string of unlawful power grabs. It truly is a stunning list of crimes.

Why isn't there a lawsuit on file already? This seems like a text book case for a Petition for Mandamus ordering Johnson to perform his mandated constitutional duty to swear in the Congresswoman. Where are you #KenMartin and #DNC.

#BadBunny speaks English and Spanish. We call that bilingual, Marge. How many languages do you speak? You think Bad Bunny's lyrics are demonic. Have you had a listen to Trump bestie #KidRock's lyrics? You might want to do that b4 you say another word. Maybe you should just sit this one out.

Taking on her case would have meant continued focus on #Epstein. Make no mistake, this decision was not about the rule of law, it was abou the rule of trump.

As trump continues to make false claims about "far left radical violence", it's a good day to remember this: When asked if flags should have been lowered to half-staff after the assassination of #MelissaHortman, he replied, "I'm sorry..Who?" Her murderer was found in possession of a hit list of

Nothing says "deeply alarmed" like getting the judge's name wrong. The fire was at the home of Judge Diane Goodstein, the Judge who ruled against trump two weeks ago and is the target of death threats.
