Rep. Jamie Raskin @raskin.house.gov · 3d

It’s day four of MAGA’s outrageous government shutdown. Now, Speaker Johnson gave House Republicans another paid week away from work.

I’m going live on Instagram at 7 PM ET with my friend and Ranking Democrat on the Rules Committee @repmcgovern.bsky.social to talk about this lawlessness.

Putin has murdered or injured over 1 million of his country men over Pride. Don't doubt the cruelty of an authoritarian in power

John Andreini @jpandre52.bsky.social · 29d

Or how about that crazy liberal propaganda: "Government should help citizens, not arrest, terrorize and murder them."

Barr had Epstein eliminated and played dumb…smiling for the cameras. Bondi is a lightweight compared to Barr. Just think back to all of the “fixing” he did for DJT. Grabbing the Mueller report, before releasing and giving a summary ( filed with lies). Because our media is complicit, they bought this

I am sure that not one person in the Trump administration could ever endure one day of slavery, let alone endure and survive it for an entire lifetime.

Texas Republicans are trying to redraw the lines of Democratic-held Congressional seats to keep Trump’s majority in the House of Representatives. It’s a disgraceful power grab.
