The Constitution is clear: Congress decides on war. When a president uses military force without authorization and Congress stays silent, they are abandoning their role as a co equal branch of government. War is the most serious power our government has. Shame on the U.S. Senate today.

Hopefully, people will start to take the Epstein files seriously and get the people who are in them arrested.

AOC: He impulsively went in on Venezuela. He impulsively went in on Iran. It led to increased global instability and every time he’s done that, it has been consistent with a spike in what is happening with the Epstein files. I think that he feels existentially tied to it.

Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy. But right now, they’re under attack.

Several Republican-controlled states have redrawn their congressional maps to give themselves an unfair advantage in the midterm elections.

There's a pathological level of desire to convince us that people want a "return to normal" when the fact that "normal" was pretty awful for most folks is exactly why Trump is president. Dems seem to believe that if they excise any remnant of passion, principle, or personality they'll win.

He lied about a pandemic that killed 1 million Americans. He won’t hesitate to keep lying about the Mideast war he started.

I loved this bit in The Guardian: Marco Rubio, the US secretary of state, said on Tuesday that Iran was run by “religious fanatic lunatics” – and Khamenei’s appointment is hardly likely to dispel that opinion.

Get a fucking mirror Marco!

Jared Polis and the Slippery Slope of Election Denial Mercy Clemency exists for mercy, not for softening the consequences of undermining elections, or placating Donald

Mercy has a place in justice.

But clemency for someone convicted of undermining election systems sends the wrong message at the worst possible time.

Huge slap in the face to democracy. Democratic Colorado governor, @colorado.gov, just publicly signaled clemency to Tina peters, convicted of election interference. If election crimes have no consequences, why would the next denier stop?

I think what makes this moment educational, is that in the moment he could have shown his intelligence, authority & command of the situation by telling officers to stop, let the Marine get his arm free, then escort him out.
But he exhibited how limited his thinking is. Brute force.
Its all he knows.

Tim Sheehy is a piece of shit. Warning this is graphic and will make you ill. A marine's arm gets snapped because Tim Sheehy is a bully piece of shit that is trying to be a hero.

WALZ: What a 'stop payment' meant by what the administration did last week is 400,000 children without healthcare

COMER: We believe that's your fault

WALZ: Our Medicaid error rate is lower than your state

When I hear something like this I question what does someone have on the Governor of Colorado that would force him to turn his back on democracy?

47 years is the *opposite* of imminent (which means "something that will happen soon"). These people are so stupid.

JUST IN: A federal judge has barred Gov DeSantis from designating CAIR as a terrorist organization and punish those who associate with the group.

“Once again, Florida chooses political posturing over the First Amendment,” Judge Walker writes.

Why the hell are we spending even $1 advertising DHS??? It's not a product. It's not something consumers can opt to purchase.

That $220M would sure help a lot of families that lost food assistance in the Big Ugly Bill.

Watch this.

19 minutes and $12 to get meds at a public Chinese hospital. Without insurance.

As we slash Medicaid to start unnecessary wars and cut taxes for the rich. 🇺🇸

We should all be so much angrier than we are. It doesn’t have to be this way. #MedicareForAllNOW

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.

Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.
