Genuinely curious why you'd blame Dems for a bill that passed with only Republican votes??

Dems should introduce legislation now defunding ICE and CBP operations in Minnesota, so they have to leave the state. One sentence bill. Demand an immediate vote. Maybe refuse to vote for cloture on any funding bills (or other bills) until a vote. Make the GOP Congress break w/ Trump or own it all.

I realise I'm just a freak, but living in a multicultural city is the best thing of all time, it's just the best possible human experience and i can not understand why anyone on earth would be like "weve got to destroy this"

Yes, if he remembered it. It was 14 years ago, at a big event. Epstein wouldn’t have had any resonance at the time.

This is the only sensible take, imo. The court is out of control, and completely corrupt. Start making the case, NOW.

It’s, bottom line, the only no lie assurance you have that you did it right

It’s time for Congress to reign in the Mad King. These tariffs haven’t even hit for real and the world is off the rails.

Politically, it’s helpful to Dems, but this is why I’m not a good politician b/c I care too deeply about the harm on all people, even on those that hate my very existence.

For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:
For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences:

I’ve been sort of idly keeping track of all the points in the Declaration of Independence’s bill of particulars that arguably apply to the Trump Admin. This is the first four-in-a-row I’ve hit. www.archives.gov/founding-doc...

I’m the dairy farmer running in the special election to replace Elise Stefanik in New York’s 21st Congressional District.

Can you repost this, give me a follow, and help spread the word?

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns.

100% of his salary is paid by WA state.

Elon fired him. Share his story.

As one would expect. Congressional leaders are almost always awful at that job. Lots of good stuff from rank-and-file House and Senate Dems, and from some governors. etc. One trick to try: Amplify good anti-Trump Dems, and ignore the awkward or worse statements from those not good at it.

The way an executive branch that respects the rule of law objects to a district court ruling it doesn’t like is to *appeal* it, not to imply that the ruling just shouldn’t be followed.

I know it may not seem like much at this point. But it's really beyond time to delete your Twitter account.

And your Meta accounts.

Beyond everything else, I don't see any reason not to believe that any info they collect on you will be delivered directly to the government.

Can you elaborate on this? I want to believe you, but I don’t understand how you draw your conclusion.

You describe me pretty perfectly, but you really don’t think the visible dysfunction in some of our most notable cities isn’t a weakness in the culture wars?

He’s about to fire half of the FBI for the sin of investigating his, and his supporters’ crimes, and you think the most relevant question to answer right now is, is he good for the working class? We are truly in trouble.

You are absolutely right on this. Keep going until they listen! Dem electeds need to show some pathos, or nobody but the most tuned in will have any idea what’s happening.

Gives foreign leaders and the media a reasonable facsimile of a normal functioning adult, but the reality is that Marco has always been a thirsty meat puppet, who does as he’s told

Really hope you get the chance to run again. I’m sure you will.

This is exactly right-the whole thread. I think this is why Connolly was such a poor choice over AOC for oversight chair. Need people who know how to throw a punch in this media environment

Switch to a vape, and then taper the nicotine down. Smoked for 30 years, and I couldn’t believe how easy it was to quit that way. Had tried everything else along the way
