Trying to lynch the Vice President didn’t warrant the National Guard, but Big Balls getting carjacked requires a show of force?

Tell me you’re a dumbass without telling me - if you see someone with a long gun, you don’t need to frisk for that!
Kennedy: New York is going to have to face is the issue of whether we should bring back more aggressive stop and frisk which is a perfectly legal law enforcement tactic

Spokesperson for Gov. Walz: "Governor Walz wishes that President Trump would be a President for all Americans, but this tragedy isn't about Trump or Walz. It's about the Hortman family, the Hoffman family, and the State of Minnesota, and the Governor remains focused on helping all three heal."
Trump says he has no plans to call Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz after the targeted shootings:

"I think the governor of Minnesota is so whacked out. I'm not calling. Why would I call him? … The guy doesn't have a clue. He's a mess. So I could be nice and call him, but why waste time?"

Fixed it for you:

In just two months on the job, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has spread objectively false information about autism.

In response, autistic people say Kennedy is perpetuating harmful stereotypes and lies that do nothing but stigmatize them further.
In just two months on the job, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has raised the profile of autism.

But many autistic people say Kennedy is perpetuating harmful stereotypes.
Many in autism community say Health Secretary Kennedy doesn’t understand their needs
Advocacy groups say it’s important to tell parents of newly diagnosed children about the many possibilities open to their kids.

These idiots want to say fluoride is bad for kids yet their own kids have had it in their water - so are they trying to say their kids are messed up? Of course not. Because it’s all a lie.

Also never trusting Mike “my kid is my porn accountability partner” Johnson for how to correctly raise kids.
Mike Johnson on RFK Jr pushing to remove fluoride from water: "From what I've read and what I understand, it deserves real evaluation. There's a concern that it may be having a negative impact on the health of children ... I don't have the answers."

I’ve lost $8,500 in my 401k and investment accounts in just the past month.

Not seeing any “best is yet to come” around these parts.

Where’s the MAGA? Nowhere to be fucking found.

“We’ee going to get to the bottom of who did this” BRO, it was YOU who added the journalist to the group chat! YOU!
Mike Waltz smears Goldberg as “the bottom scum of journalists.”

Take a moment today to read about a few of the young children whom Trump and Musk killed by shutting down USAID. The blame for these deaths falls on them.

There will be hundreds of thousands more dead kids before their lethal crusade against foreign aid ends. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.
March 14, 2025 at 11:18 PM
And voting yes only gave Trump & Musk license to continue doing the harm they’ve already been doing.

This one hurts. I expected more from you, Senator.
Our economy can't afford this administration's chaos.
March 14, 2025 at 11:04 PM
They already are and won’t stop abusing power to take jobs from workers. You’ve stopped nothing. You gave away the store.

Coward.
Trump, Musk, and DOGE would use the power of a shutdown to shift into overdrive.

And the courts, one of our best places to fight these autocrats, could quickly run out of money.

We can’t let this happen.

This vote is doing NOTHING to stop Elon Musk and Trump from doing the harm they’ve already done.

Absolutely disgusted that again another retiring Senator couldn’t locate their spine.
My statement after voting to advance the continuing resolution to avoid a government shutdown that would have hurt Granite Staters and enabled President Trump and Elon Musk to do more harm:

You’re retiring and you couldn’t see fit to put your neck out for the American people who ALREADY have lost their jobs to Elon Musk?

Coward.

We’re “disappointed” in you for not seeing fit to use the one tool you could to force them to the table.

Another coward
The Senate Democratic Caucus was unified on a ‘clean’ one-month CR that would have kept the government open and given Congress time to negotiate bipartisan legislation. I’m disappointed that our Republican colleagues wouldn’t join us in that effort.
March 14, 2025 at 10:58 PM
Coward.
My YES vote is *not* an endorsement of this deeply flawed CR.

My YES vote is 💯 about refusing to shut our government down.

I refuse to punish working families and plunge millions of Americans into chaos.
 
I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever vote to shut our government down.

The House went on recess just to try to force Senate Dems to cave — folding to the whims of Mike Johnson is just pathetic.

Anyone who vote yes on this cares more about their seat than our best interests. Hope selling out is worth your one-way ticket to hell.
Schumer: "For sure, the Republican bill is a terrible option. It is not a clean CR. It is deeply partisan. It doesn't address far too many of this country's needs. But I believe allowing Donald Trump to take even much more power via a government shutdown is a far worse option."
