This video clip of him using the language of the letter he claimed he didn’t write to Epstein nails him cold! What a liar. 😡

Finally, a clear message explaining what’s worth fighting for against Trump Republicans and their cruel, sociopathic cuts.

"So, Democrats have three words for this: no fucking way. It's literally life or death. We will not let Republicans blow up our health care system."

This is, hands down, the best comms work Chuck Schumer has done in YEARS. Surprisingly good.

Notice how they’re now calling everyone else an “insurrectionist.” Pure projection.

A screenshot of an X.com post by House Homeland Security Committee (@HouseHomelandSecCo) stating, "We're drawing a blank, let us get back to you," with an image of a crowd storming a government building, featuring individuals in red caps and carrying flags. Below, a reply from @Acyn
, Acyn, posted 5 hours earlier, quotes Stephen Miller asking, "when in our history have we tolerated unlawful, riotous assemblies around government buildings," accompanied by a video thumbnail of Miller speaking on a news program, labeled "OANN 0:13" with text identifying him as the White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy.

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025.... Too bad MSM in the USA can’t report the truth about Trump’s unhinged behavior. Look to the Guardian to do that!

‘The president is unhinged’: Trump’s online behavior grows increasingly odd

The US president’s recent behavior is strange to many, from reposting a false AI video of himself to confusing comments during press conferences

I’m horrified by Trump’s order to send 300 National Guard troops to Chicago. We’re only nine months into a four year term and already the president is trying to invade an American city. If you’re in the Guard, you can and should refuse these orders.

It will always baffle me how easily people will believe that the poor, the sick, the marginalized, and the immigrant are the cause for all their problems, rather than the people in the most powerful positions in their country who refuse to fix problems and exploit them instead.

"Johnson said he was left tied up outside the building for nearly three hours.

'I asked [agents] why they were holding me if I was an American citizen, and they said I had to wait until they looked me up. I asked if they had a warrant and I asked for a lawyer. They never brought one.'"

JOHNSON: A lot of folks on your side are too

D: Oh my god, please. That performance in front of the generals?

J: I didn't see it

D: It's so dangerous! Our allies are looking elsewhere. Our enemies are laughing. You have a POTUS who's unwell.
