Chris Murphy: "There's a lot of history that has taken place in the East Wing & it was just destroyed without any conversation in the public, without any consent of Congress. It's absolutely illegal. That visual is powerful b/c you're watching destruction of the rule of law as those walls come down"

Warren: So now Trump wants to give Argentina $40 billion.

He talked about how tough things are for the people in Argentina and how hard theyโ€™re fighting for their economic survival.

Look around America. Look at all the farmers sitting on soybeans theyโ€™ve got no buyer for now.

I have to stress how highly unusual it is for the most powerful military on the planet to be blowing up random boats in international waters.

I canโ€™t help but feel that several criminal charges will ultimately come from these strikes.

It makes far more sense to interdict them.

Primaries are there for a reason. I'm not interested in "vote Blue no matter who" especially as its given us people like Fetterman. Push to make Democratic candidates better or replace them.

And with that, I think its time to drop Platner.

Trump ordered Treasury employees not to share any more images of his demolition of The White House.
Thou Shalt Share This Photo Because Trump Doesnโ€™t Want You To

Sen. Jeff Merkley has been speaking on the Senate floor since 6:20pm last night โ€” protesting Trump and warning that "tyranny has arrived."

"Trump is shredding our Constitution. Is it okay for masked federal agents to arrest people off the street because of their skin color โ€ฆ Not in a free America."

If we had a functioning Congress, it would be requiring Trump to (1) Provide a complete list of all people/countries/corporations/mafia providing bribes, ur, โ€œdonationsโ€ for his tacky ballroom; and (2) An audited accounting of where all the money goes.

Trump has decimated funding for Medicaid, SNAP, and crucial agencies like FEMA and the CFPB.

Now, he's demanding his cronies at DOJ give him a ludicrous $230M in taxpayer funds as "compensation" for past investigations.

He's picking your pockets to line his own.

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.

There is a full-on push in NYC right now to use "Mamdani doesn't make Jews 'feel safe'" as a cudgel to get Cuomo into office, and it is utterly disgusting. You know what makes me feel unsafe? People who casually characterize us as a trembling single-issue monolith scared of the big bad Muslim.

I lived with my dad when I was very young and he didnโ€™t apply for food stamps or free school lunches, though we qualified.

So, I went hungry. It was awful. I begged neighbors for saltine crackers. I can say it was the worst time of my life.

Children shouldnโ€™t go hungry. Restore SNAP benefits.
