A major reason Republicans became far-right Trump cultists was that so many moderate Republicans were primaried out of their jobs.

We will not get a truly progressive, Trump-defying Democratic Party by convincing current Democrats to change. We'll get that by primarying the hell out of them.

In Oversight today, my colleagues stuck to their usual script: blaming immigrants for all crime & claiming Dem mayors are too soft. Well, I was curious to know if they’ve ever had an immigrant with a criminal record that they could recall. Tune in!

Musk is shamelessly enriching his minions with the salaries of hard-working Americans.

He claims to be fighting government waste? Nope. Disgraceful but unsurprising.

The SAVE Act will require voters to provide unnecessary documentation to vote.

This bill would make voting harder for people of color, women, and low-income people — groups of people who already face more difficulties at the polls.
