He's just pathetic at this point. Beyond reprehensible and utterly pathetic. Embarrassing little weasel of a man.

Ofelia Torres' bravery in the face of injustice was beyond words — her courage became a symbol of strength at a time when even the strongest would have bowed.
My deepest condolences to her family and loved ones.
May her memory be a blessing.

Trump keeps lying by saying that “We’re the only country in the world that has mail-in ballots,” even though 34 countries & territories allow mail-in voting.
Trump will never accept defeat in the House or Senate & he'll blame his loss on phony mail-in-ballot fraud & SCOTUS will back his lie.

DHS wants platforms to hand over the names of “anti-ICE” accounts. Read that again. Not criminals. Not cartels. Critics. When a government starts compiling lists of dissenters, history has a word for that. First they unmask you. Then they make you an example.

The Virginia Supreme Court has ruled that the state can put a redistricting plan on the ballot this spring that could add as many as four more Democratic seats in Congress.
The referendum will take place on April 21.

Swalwell: ICE agents shot Alex Pretti and Renee Good. And the only person in the world who has been held accountable by DHS is the pilot who somehow forgot to move Kristi Noem’s blankie.

Not sure who needs to hear this but the voter fraud rate is a mere 0.000003%. Anyone telling you otherwise is making shit up so they can take away your right to vote.

What the congressman reports below is disgusting.
He reveals the utter lack of decency and humanity in the Trump administration, especially in the telling detail at the end.

If our Christianity causes us to protect the powerful and ignore the powerless, that’s when we know we are following someone other than Jesus.

Hey there Pam Bondi if you have nothing to hide why were you tracking what congressmen were searching on the Epstein files?
Why uh…. Why…. Why so nervous?

Not only were the files that were supposed to be made available to Members of Congress still redacted, but we also learned that Pam Bondi has been keeping track of what Members have reviewed.
Clearly, this is one big cover-up led by Pam.

I and millions of Americans believe exactly the same thing Kasparov does.
Too many troops, too many new prisons, too much money not under Congressional supervision.
We're not just witnessing a mass deportation scheme anymore.
This is something significantly bigger and scarier.

Should you get snatched out of your home on April 21st because you didn’t file your taxes on time? The government is focused on immigrants now but if you set the precedent that people should get kidnapped over paperwork there’s a whole lot of people who can get taken next

After giving Argentina $60 bn to bail out its wannabe dictator, Trump has now ordered the purchase of $1 bn in Argentine beef to flood US markets with less expensive meat. A disaster for US cattlemen. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-b...
More Argentina beef imports won't do much to ease costs for consumers, according to experts
Taming runaway U.S. beef prices will require more than stepping up imports, economists said. Here's the key to cutting costs.
