Ladies and gentlemen, this is the President of the United States. Happy 250 years of independence. 🤦‍♂️

Shapiro on SOTU: First off, it was boring. It was poorly delivered, and it was too damn long. This dude, who’s the worst orator of our time, did two hours. He comes off as totally unhinged. He’s like spitting everywhere, and he’s lying constantly about things.

Hochul on Tariffs: I was in the room when he found out he lost. He got the piece of paper, looked down at it, and said, “You know, the Supreme Court just ruled. Looks like they ruled against us.”

He took a couple of questions on other topics, but then he stormed out of the room.

Ilhan Omar: “As someone who has survived the horrors of war, I know that bombs do not build peace or create stability—

Military strikes will not make us safer; they will inflame tensions & push the region further into chaos — every time we abandon diplomacy, we choose destruction”

I’m sorry, doing this in a baseball cap sold by your campaign store is deliberately disrespecting the dead.

The Ellisons’ new Paramount/Warner Bros mega-media monopoly would never pass muster if America still had antitrust enforcers.

So who can stop this? State attorneys general. Here's how. ⬇️

An article describing how a Norwegian immigrant married a US citizen but ICE detailed her and refused her insulin, causing blindness and almost killed her. In between, an ad from the common sense leadership fund lauds the president's "understanding of the art of the deal" and boosts his alleged pro-business agenda

An article describing how a Norwegian immigrant married a US citizen but ICE detailed her and refused her insulin, causing blindness and almost killed her. In between, an ad from the common sense leadership fund lauds the president's "understanding of the art of the deal" and boosts his alleged pro-business agenda

The contrast is ghoulish. A "pro-business" president nearly killing people because cruelty is the point.

People should be required to experience ICE's illegal brutalities before being able to claim that they support ICE and their methods.

The utter INCOMPETENCE of the “leaders”
of the Dem Party is repeatedly exposed.
They let outrage after outrage after outrage go by and have ZERO coordinated responses.

When a government goes after a company and threatens to burn it down because they won't let their product be used for nefarious reasons says something chilling about that government.🗽

When everything goes to shit Presidents are told to “start a war”… “war’s save Presidencies”….
This is not what’s happening right now.
This joke of a president and administration has started a world conflict and they have no clue where to go from here.
It’s gonna get way worse.

This war IS a distraction. YES, from Epstein, but also from several dozen OTHER awful things. Heck, the Epstein files are a distraction.

Literally ALL OF IT is partly a distraction, these are domestic abusers and we're expected to treat them like a serious government making legit if poor decisions.

At a time of extreme inequality in America, California has built one of the nation's most progressive income tax systems.

We'll keep doing all we can to boost our most vulnerable and provide equity for all — including in our schools, public safety, and essential services.

This is a power grab. If you’re not speaking out everyday, you WILL lose your right to vote.

Sad to hear of the passing of my former colleague Congresswoman Hanabusa.

She was a fierce advocate for Native Hawaiian rights and a great friend to Gwen and me.
