So, hear me out on this, I want my taxpayer dollars going to feeding, hungry people, educating kids, and building better roads. I have no desire to buy Donald Trump an island, & last time I checked, the power of the purse, still belonged to Congress.
"Secretary of State Marco Rubio told lawmakers that recent administration threats against Greenland didn’t signal an imminent invasion and that the goal is to buy the island from Denmark, according to people familiar with the discussions."

According to a new report, 33 of the January 6 rioters Trump pardoned on his first day in office have since been charged, arrested, or convicted of new crimes.

Trump is happy to put criminals back on our streets so long as they are loyal to him.

Once again, a mere handful of people in Washington could caucus today with the Democrats & put an end to ~90% of the worst things immediately.

They even have names: bsky.app/profile/mcop...

We should stop giving these people free passes every day & yell at them like everyone yells at Democrats.
This puts the GOP at 218 with a shutdown coming.

Sickening — the White House has put up a site about 1/6 painting himself as a hero and Pelosi, The Capitol Police, and Mike Pence as the villains.

Crockett: "Everyone wants to talk about how Maduro was illegitimate. As we sit here on January 6, I do want to be clear: somebody else was trying to be a Maduro of the United States. Somebody else wanted to do the exact same thing. The difference is Maduro was successful."

Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists.

Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot.

It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

Today is one of those days where I’m struck anew by how *bad* the internet has gotten. It’s almost unusable. Clouds, apps, advertising — nothing is where it should be and it’s nigh impossible sometimes to do basic tasks online.

Reprinting this to expose the screaming lies the White House is pushing regarding January 6.

We watched it.

We heard eyewitness accounts.

This is sloppy, crass propaganda.

Desperation born of weakness and a full awareness of the REAL truth.
According to the White House, this is the "true" timeline of January 6th.

FIVE YEARS & he has not been held accountable for one of the most disgraceful events in this nation's history.
Trying to overturn a fair election in an attempted coup against his own government is the very definition of TREASON. We can never move forward until this is fully adjudicated. #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

A reminder that the US killed 80 people in Venezuela, and it would be nice if the US media cared enough to think that the life of a grandmother in Caracas whose building is destroyed by a US bomb matters as much as the life of a person in the US.

THREAD: Viral misinformation on US capture of Nicolas Maduro - 4 January

In fact, it shows anti-Maduro protests in July 2024 over a highly disputed election.

Five years ago, Donald Trump instigated a violent insurrection in the Capitol to prevent Congress from certifying Joe Biden the winner of the 2020 election. The fact that the GOP coddled him, protected him, renominated him, and now support him in office, is a stain that will never be erased.
