#DrOz is dirty.
Why? Do only the rich deserve healthcare?

I’ve lost track of the times I was denied healthcare b/c the ins co wouldn’t pay, and I couldn’t afford it.

The American ins ind controls legislators with donations.

The ENTIRE system is corrupt.

Kyrylo Budanov has become the face of Ukraine’s silent war, a commander who’s outsmarted, outplanned, and outfought the Kremlin at every turn. A master strategist who lives every day under threat. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

Robert “Madyar” Brovdi turned drones into Ukraine’s sharpest weapon, founding the Birds of Madyar and leading the creation of the world’s first Unmanned Systems Forces. A citizen turned commander who redefined modern resistance. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

Miller's attempt to look unbothered about AOC calling him 4’10" is hilarious. His cringy laugh says it all.

They’re dismantling the Bill of Rights.
With great wringing of hands, and not much else, from leadership.
It’s time the Democratic Party understand that the history books will not be kind to them either.
There are no accolades for being a bystander.

Great question. Where is the $50,000 bribe undercover FBI Agents paid to Tom Homan? Did he keep the money? Did he claim it on taxes? The way Pam Bondi avoids the question it is clear she knows exactly what happened to the Homan bribe. I cannot wait until Pam Bondi faces a jury. #ProudBlue

Border patrol caught in lies regarding ramming innocent woman’s car then shooting her seven times. She had to drive to get help and a bullet fell from her arm as paramedics applied tourniquets to control bleeding.

Lev Parnas: "Trump defies judges, aligns red-state militias under his command, and prepares a nationwide crackdown".

This is a totally illegal assault on American cities.

Anyone who is "just following orders" and committing violent acts should be arrested!

Mike Johnson has gone to extraordinarily great lengths to protect one man from being exposed as a pedophile. If anyone had a scintilla of doubt about Donald Trump’s involvement in the Epstein Sex Trafficking Ring that doubt is now gone. Trump’s guilt is proven by the massive GOP coverup #ProudBlue

youtube.com/shorts/t60A5... #ProudBlue. MAGA in full meltdown mode over first verse of a Zach Bryan song. Bryan takes aim at ICE who“comes busting down your door”and “kids scared all alone”. He speaks the truth about the “Fading of the Red White and Blue”. Is this a paradigm shift in country music?

Democratic Circuit Court Judge Diana Goodstein’s Edisto Beach home went up in flames while she was walking her dogs. Her husband, former Dem state Sen. Arnold Goodstein leapt from a window breaking several bones.
I’ll wager that it was done by a MAGAt.

I wish Republicans were as outraged that Trump is ignoring court orders, using ICE as his Gestapo, and using the military against US citizens, as they were that time Barack Obama wore a tan suit.

Jamie Raskin: It's not lost on anyone that shutting the government down allows them not to swear in Adelita Grijalva, who would be the 218th signature to release the Epstein files. So, it’s convenient for them to shut the government down.
