@repstansbury.bsky.social: "This is gangster activity. The president is trying to shield pedophiles by calling and threatening members of Congress. We need more members of Congress, whether it's the Epstein files, the shutdown, health care, democracy, the rule of law, to just fucking do their jobs."

Vance: I’m sure that in the course of his life he has been paid more than $50,000 for services. The question is did he do something illegal.

Stephanopoulos: I’m asking if Homan accepted the $50,000

Vance: Is it illegal to take a payment for doing services? Low income women can’t get food

There is no left-wing violence in Chicago or Portland. It simply is not happening.

It's so not happening, in fact, that Republicans in Oregon took footage from two South American countries to create a hoax photo about Portland.

They have no actual violent footage to put forward.

Republicans post fake image of Oregon protest – using photos of South America

A federal judge had blocked Trump’s request to deploy California national guard to Portland

Today would be a great day for slimy Mike Johnson to finally swear in Adelita Grijalva so her district can have representation in Congress for the first time in 7 months.

All this just so Pedo Protector Mike can hide the Epstein files from the American public.

That’s because he considers his birthday as the most important day in American history. Military parade this year, UFC fight and more next year, his face on US currency. Expect more Trump birthday stuff, including a push to make it a national holiday.

"We’ve run out of synonyms for incoherent, rambling, batshit crazy, deranged, and demented. So, suffice it to say that a lot of what Trump said was simply drooling piffle as if his prefrontal cortex was turning into rancid guacamole."

When you see how excited Trump, Russ Vought, and Republicans are about the government shutdown, it becomes pretty obvious the reason why they refused to negotiate a compromise with Democrats is because they wanted this and they completely own this, regardless of their lies.

🧵Coal in the US was mostly dying because of cheap natural gas beginning in the 2000s. Then cheap renewables began to clobber it in the 2010s. It is a filthy power source and horrible emitter of greenhouse gases. There is zero economic justification for this & it will amount to corporate welfare.

$Generation of electricity by source in US, 1950-2015 Coal held steady at about 50% until 2000, with natural gas, cheaper and abundant because of fracking, rose up, passing coal at 2015. Natural gas is cleaner and releases less carbon dioxide per energy output$ Cost of energy in dollars per megawatt-hour 2015-2023, projected to 2030. As of 2019 wind and solar were cheaper than coal, natural gas, and as of 2023, coal was nearly 2x more expensive.
