Brian Schatz: "This is not about money. There is enough money to bail out Argentina with $20b. There is enough money to purchase a brand new aircraft for $173m for Noem. There is enough money to renovate the WH ballroom. What there isn't enough money for under this Republican government is you."
I momentarily got hopeful.

I read Schumer’s name immediately after “retire, you say?”

Sigh
The millions marching are not Americans?
McClain: While Democrats were marching with their radical mobs, Republicans were actually meeting with Americans.

Raskin: "Speaker Johnson described the exercise of 1st Amendment rights across the country by 6 or 7 millions Americans as part of No Kings as a 'Hate America Rally.' The Hate America Rally happened on January 6 ... there were more than 140 police officers who were wounded."

Trump keeps coming up with new pretexts for transferring enormous sums of money from the US Treasury and putting it in his private pocket. This one is wild.

Adelita Grijalva: "There is so much that cannot be done until I'm sworn in. So every moment that passes that I'm not able to provide constituent services or be a voice for Arizona, I cannot bring the issues forward that they send me here to do."
Or just the sheer amount of people he’s been able to surround himself with
that he has sway over whether it be pardoning them from crimes, having dirt on them or promises of money, influence and power.
Deflection.
Rape happens out there.
No one here is guilty of rape or violence against women…..

As he waves his hand across the crowd willing people to believe his bullshit.
It takes a strong person to look at their body of work and say “no more”
I will not continue to be a stenographer for this administration and I will pursue the good, bad and ugly of every story and ignore both side-ism.

He is literally not paying for it.

Trump notes the sound of construction of his new ballroom at the White House and says, "that's music to my ears. When I hear that sound, it reminds me of money. In this case it reminds me of lack of money because I'm paying for it."
Such a child
Ew democrats
Wouldn’t want to get compassion cooties on me.

If one of your Senators is one of the four (Thune, Scott, Lankford, and Johnson) who has come out v Ingrassia for his Nazi views, you might call and ask when they're going to call out Stephen Miller, who is also a white nationalist, but who also serves as a gatekeeper to what Trump thinks is true.
Yet these two promoted and gave him a platform to become who he is and to do what he has done.
Congratulations Mika, Joe & crew.

Dems, I bet of you, STOP VOTING FOR TRUMP JUDGES JESUS FUCKING CHRIST
By a vote of 66-32, the #Senate invoked cloture on the nomination of Harold D. Mooty III to be US District Judge for the Northern District of Alabama.
Absolutely.

Everytime I write the list I end up adding more or leaving out others because there is only so much room in a post.
His assaults and crimes are many.
It’s bad enough to have to pick the best out of the worst candidates but normalizing what is OK or acceptable as worst in a candidate and have it be Nazism, racism, etc. erodes socially accept norms for a decent society.

Walk away and find support someone maybe not perfect but better.
Also, for the people who say you don’t live in Maine, and it doesn’t matter to you, it does matter.

We can’t let people like this and their choices be normalized as OK, anywhere.

Even with the government shutdown, lots of Democrats are still acting like it’s business as usual

In this house it’s called “the Barro”.

Assuming his sliver of knowledge or reference points, really represent a wider range than it does.

Here in Chicago, we know Trump has launched a violent campaign against us because we didn't vote for him. It's no longer a federal government that represents us. It's a government that has declared war against us.
I just read someone say
a young man phase with nazism & my stomach turned and my brain does not want to accept the idea there is a phase for that… oh no …. wth?

We are not normalizing flirting with nazism ffs!
Exactly!

Then immediately cover it or
have it removed.

Choosing to have that mark on you everyday and not remove it, wtf?
