Pam Hemphill was a January 6th defendant who refused a pardon because she realized she'd been lied to.

She's been in Portland and saw the peaceful nature of protestors and how MAGA is there to stir things up to fit the regime's narrative.

She saw peaceful protest is being attacked by ICE.

Q: Do you agree that the mayor of Chicago and governor of Illinois should be in prison?

MIKE JOHNSON: Should they be in prison? I'm not the attorney general. I'm not following the day to day on that

#nytimes is a f’Ing joke today. Here are the headlines. Hunter Biden. (Seriously). College student skip class (oh my gosh) and how a guy had a misleading resume and wasn’t a citizen and ICE snatched him up

Health care funding saves lives. Period.

Just ask AFSCME member Annita Martinez, who fights every day to get patients the care they deserve. But Trump’s yes-men in Congress slashed billions piling costs on workers and forcing hospitals to the brink. #TrumpsHealthCareShutdown

Democrats are rejecting a 7-week “band-aid” that delays the fight—because waiting means 20M face higher premiums ＆ 15M could lose Medicaid.

Better to fight now than abandon families later.

Remember, it was the Washington Post who gave Bondi a thumbs up to be confirmed. Democracy Docket made clear from day one that she was an election denying sycophant.

No surprise at their coverage of today. Support independent, pro-democracy media today. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

"None — repeat none — of America’s fentanyl has been found to originate from Venezuela. Yet Trump and Pete Hegseth, his compulsively strutting “secretary of war”, insist that the country is fuelling America’s opioid epidemic." Me on Trump's wag the dog script. www.ft.com/content/5b3e...

Venezuela is Trump’s useful enemy

Despite the president’s claims, the South American country is nowhere close to being the US’s biggest drug supplier

In Economist/You Gov weekly tracking poll Trump's job approval drops 3 pts, now 39%-56% (-17)
- Only 37% support military in cities
- 33% support his handling of shutdown
- Rs lose 2 pts in generic ballot, Ds now up 44-39 w/RVs
Lots of not winning here for Trump/Rs

The disrespect and contempt they show for Democrats in Congress is illiberal, authoritarian and just stunning.

DURBIN: You won't even say whether you talked to the WH about this?

BONDI: I'm not going to discuss any internal conversations with you

D: They're going to transfer TX Guard troops to the state of Illinois. What's the rationale?

B: I wish you loved Chicago as much as you hate President Trump

Trump's shutdown is a cat's hissy fit on a national scale. He's throwing a fit because he can't get his way.

GOP, it's time to grow up and put the interests of the American people first.

George is obviously very intelligent and thoughtful. We are all more vulnerable than we think to propaganda. I hope every single person that voted for Trump doesn't have to go through something so intense to be deprogrammed.

Not sufficient, but necessary for movement building.
