Senate Republicans blocked Democrats' bill that would have reopened the government and saved health care for millions of Americans.

This is the SIXTH time they've done this.

Republicans are responsible for this shutdown.

It's so weird and I disagree with most of her positions but if she wants to throw a fit over this (or Epstein or anything else Rs do) I will support her in that endeavor. You go girl!

So are they gonna do the slow burn and do the insurrection act for the 2026 election or are they so afraid that they're going to do it for this November? They seem desperate. I think it happens less than a month from now.

Amen. We weren't even a red state. We were a purple state with a Dem governor and senator and they abandoned us! We don't have a swing county. We're not super rich. But it's usually R for president and checks and balances at the state level so as far as Democrats are concerned, we're nobody.

Thinking most the people who feel abandoned by the Democratic Party are the left-wing people residing in solid red states, like myself. DNC gave up on us years ago. Would be nice to have Blue State brothers and sisters recognize that.

Stephen Miller froze after mentioning “plenary authority.”

… but what is plenary authority?

Pritzker: "He wants to militarize major cities because he wants us to get used to the idea of troops on the streets. I believe he's gonna post people outside of polling places and if he needs to in order to control those elections, he'll assume control of the ballot boxes & count the votes himself"

"Oregon national guard serves 2 purposes. 1 to defend America and 2 to protect Oregonians. So by serving in this mission they would be protecting any protestors at the ice facility" is what Brigadier General Gronewold said, explaining what the deployment of the Oregon national guard would look like.

At this point I 100% trust them and the Onion more than actual "news" since most of it is propaganda and the ones that aren't could flip at any moment.

Today, Senator Kaine and I will force the Senate to vote on the administration’s decision to blow up ships in the Caribbean.

If a president can unilaterally put people or groups on a list and kill them, there is no meaningful limit to his use of force.

It's clear by now that the Democrats won't press this case as aggressively as it needs to be pressed, and the media won't do that unless they have Democrats' quotes to use as a springboard either.

They won't do this work, so it's even more important that we circulate these stories ourselves.

David M. Perry @lollardfish.bsky.social · 1d

I really believe that huge majorities of Americans don’t want masked soldiers shooting priests in the street. They don’t want naked children ripped out out of their apartments in the middle of the night and handcuffed. We win by making sure these stories get told.

The same people who insisted devout Catholic Joe Biden was leading a “war on Christianity” are now cheering Trump on as his armed goons assault clergymen.

Do you go to hell if you have pet shrimp but don't eat them? This is very important to me for personal reasons.

I'll believe it when I see it. Until then, everyone is doing a great job of hammering on them.

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.
