The Russians are at the gate…again. Never give in to fear or the lies. We will not die as slaves. Building an empire takes decades. Destroying it can only take a few years, and sometimes the vandals are in the palace, not outside the gates.

Is it just me or does this pose look reptilian, you know, like a snake?

She was also a highly paid lobbyist for…

Guess who?

Yes, yes, QATAR, but that's just a coincidence, right?

Dementia Don just can't stop air dicking.

All that's missing is YMCA playing in the background.

Imagine making six figures to not do anything you were entrusted to do.

…getting paid to not work while thousands of civil servants around you were getting fired.

…betraying those who counted on you to represent them, all to appease a wannabe dictator.

The GOP Congress is a helluva thing.

I think the only thing Chief Justice John Roberts and I both enjoy is a gay dinner party on Martha's Vineyard. Glory!

This is hands down the best comms work I’ve seen from Chuck, probably ever.

It ain’t perfect, but I gotta give him big props here. Him and his team clearly are trying new things — and they’re making progress!

Chuck Schumer @schumer.senate.gov · 5d

The government is shut down because Trump and the Republicans are hellbent on taking health care away from you.

And they won’t even come to the table to talk to us about it.

This is not about politics. It's about people.

Let’s break it down:

Good people need to start outing their ICE family members, neighbors, and community members.

They need to be made into pariahs in the places decent Americans gather.

Pope Leo quotes Hannah Arendt:

“The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction and the distinction between true and false no longer exist."

“I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. During that time, I was never told what I was charged with, was not allowed to shower despite being covered in tear gas and pepper spray, had no phone call to my family, and no access to an attorney.” - George Retes, U.S. citizen and veteran.

I’m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason.

Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.
