- Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is expected to be quizzed on Capitol Hill on his handling of the measles outbreak, the firing of thousands of federal health workers and major cuts to the health agencies he oversees.
- Quizzed? Reps and Senators need to tag-team and attack JFKjr and other Trump appointees mercilessly! Do not let up until these nasty, dangerous clowns resign in tears. This is serious. Our elected representatives need to step up vigorously!
- He gets a hard time at these hearings, but nothing changes.
- Not hard enough. Obviously.
- Mike Johnson: "Look, I've been a little busy on reconciliation, so I'm not following all the twists and turns of the Qatar jet. My understanding is it's not a personal gift to the president ... other nations give us gifts all the time ... it's not my lane."
- Yeah, he's only the Majority Leader of the US House of Representatives. Poor little, overworked man.
- House Speaker Mike Johnson said he supports a ban on stock trading by members of Congress amid controversy about well-timed trades during recent market volatility.
- Does he, though? Magic 8 Ball says "doubtful"
- Parkland survivor David Hogg to be ousted from DNC following investigation into his election
- I have never seen the libs fight any Republican as hard as they've fought David Hogg. Fascinating shit.
- Like they fought Bernie.
- And saving crucial information for their books instead of doing their jobs and reporting it.
- “I could explain Hasan Piker’s politics to you, but that’s entirely irrelevant. The bold, all caps, underlined point is that a high profile, US-born American citizen was detained on Sunday by ICE for, it would seem, the crime of speech.”
- [Not loaded yet]
- Hasan is not selfless. He's rich, rather famous, and very arrogant.
- At @thirdactorg.bsky.social some of us are old enough to remember when Richard Nixon almost lost his job as veep for a $16,000 slush fund and the gift of a cocker spaniel puppy. I guess with inflation we’ve gotten to a $400 million plane…
- [Not loaded yet]
- Aren't the majority of Bulwark writers former Republicans/Never-Trumpers? Like Senator Slotkin?
- Voters: Can we have more moderate cultural or policy positions? Tim Walz: Best I can do is talk about football with podcasters
- Nope, sorry (not sorry) Republican mfers! Democrats need to swing for the policy fences and unconditionally support people in all of their glorious differences.
