Strong supporter of our Constitution and Democracy. Our military deserves better than a CIC that calls them “suckers and losers”. Go Zags! Go Eagles unless they are playing the NINERS! #Resister #Ukraine 💓💗

What are you doing? Why are the Democrats taking a reactive stance as opposed to a proactive stance?
The Democrats are not demonstrating Leadership capabilities!
I will NOT give another penny to DNC or ANY Democratic candidate until I see you taking action!

Why is Apple, Microsoft, Lockheed Martin, Blackstone, Google, OpenAI, Amazon and others financing the destruction of the WH and desecration of the grounds, something that is infuriating to huge chunk of the American population? Do you hate your customers that much?

All this ICE recruiting and federal money allocations is simply a front, as many already know, to legalize white domestic terrorism groups.

Voters should pick their representatives, not the other way around. Glad to get the chance to talk to some of the volunteers and organizers doing the hard work to make sure Prop 50 passes. This vote will have critical implications, not just for California, but for our entire country.

The same people who obsessed over a tan suit, a private email server, a boisterous laugh, and an autopen are strangely indifferent to the likelihood that their president raped children.

Texas is a majority minority state and without gerrymandering, white ppl who are only 39.8% of the pop can't have 90% of the power.

The state is still reporting nonsensical math.

But, 60.5% of Texas is nonwhite:
40.2% Latino;
12.5% Black;
5.5% Asian;
1.5% Multiracial;
0.5% Indigenous

Trump will negotiate with Hamas.

He will negotiate with a Russian dictator sworn to destroy America.

He will (allegedly) negotiate with India & Pakistan over a region he couldn’t find on a map.

But he will NOT negotiate with democrats to save millions of Americans from losing their healthcare.

This is a big deal… my congressman has been in DC for 24 years and hasn’t held a Townhall since 2012.

His rural constituents are standing up.

He bulldozed the White House during a government shutdown to build himself a ballroom, then sent a letter to the states saying that SNAP benefits for 42 million people may not go out in November to those who rely on it to eat.

Sen. Kevin Cramer on Mike Johnson: "It may be getting to be time for him to bring the House back into session, if for no other reason to start doing other legislation and perhaps to swear in the House member from Arizona that they're so uptight about."

Families are already hanging by a thread, but the sad truth is it’s about to get a lot worse when SNAP benefits don’t go out in November.

It’s time to find our local food banks and help out with donations and volunteer hours if you are able.

New in PN: Lindsey Halligan's humiliation continues apace

"After discovering — too late! — that you have to tell reporters beforehand if you want conversations to be off the record, Halligan now finds herself attempting to prosecute 2 high profile cases on the 'rocket docket.' It’s not going well."

She's bad at media, and even worse at law.

As I watched a gray Volvo excavator tear down part of the historic White House East Wing on Monday afternoon, I thought about how perfectly that act of needless, wasteful, self-aggrandizing destruction summed up Trump’s first 10 months in office.
