Since November 5th, I feel like every day is an election and I can vote with my dollars. Money given to Musk, Bezos or Zuckerberg is a vote for Trump. I choose to vote for small businesses, eBay sellers, and ethical companies. 💙

Agreed! Excellent show about this on Netflix - "Death By Lightning."
James Garfield was murdered by a man who thought he deserved a government job. Chester Arthur—once a machine politician—responded by helping create civil service reform.
Today’s GOP wants to undo that progress and return to patronage politics.

Gallego: "This administration, since they started striking these boats illegally, has been very happy to show their snuff films . Now suddenly they're willing to show the first hit but not the second. Why? ... they're afraid the public is going to see the military killed 2 men that had surrendered."

If you are afraid the ICC will try you for war crimes, do you
1. Stop committing war crimes, or
2. Try to destroy the ICC and international rule of law?
Obviously 2. Sorry I asked. I don’t know what got into me.

There will be catastrophic consequences if Republicans don't join us to extend the ACA tax credits.
This is not about achieving a political victory for one party or the other – it's about coming together to act in the best interest of the American people.

I think one of the broadcast networks should make @timmiller.bsky.social their principal nightly news anchor because he would bring back 1970s levels of ratings to the biz
"Why does he keep doing this to himself? It's like masochism. He's going to keep going on and trying to claim that he's a farmer?"
Tim Miller and Bill Kristol discuss Scott Bessent repeatedly alleging he's a soybean farmer.

Every House Democrat has signed the petition to extend the credits for 3 more years – but not a single Republican.
