Not only do we have to pay higher taxes because the rich don't want to pay any, we pay more for everything we buy because of the stupid tariffs & unchecked corporate greed, we are also going to see our health insurance premiums explode because Repubs dgaf about anyone except the 1%.

Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in.

Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators.

The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism

In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.

I swear every time that they change pitchers to avoid him pitching to a certain batter, that batter hits a HR. Every fucking time. It's like the universe of baseball knows you are trying to cheat it. 🙄

I did not know this & I feel kind of sick now that I know this. I'm not going to stop buying books, but I need to commit to memory publishing imprints he owns. 😳

MTG was first elected to Congress in 2020, and she's been lobbying against the ACA since day one. She's just realizing NOW how essential it is for hard working Americans? And ONLY because it's actually affecting her own family. SMH

The Speaker of the House is refusing to swear in an elected official, leaving an entire district without representation, just to block a vote that would release files on the world’s most notorious pedophile, whom the President once called his best friend. Why isn’t this on every front page?!

Those who claim to be Christian seem to be facing a cross roads. You cannot believe that Jesus Christ himself would be on the side of the masked thugs of ICE.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.
