- In a fiery moment on the House floor, Rep. Tom Suozzi just tore into the GOP’s reconciliation package—exposing contradiction after contradiction. If you watch one clip today, make it this. 🎯🔥
- I think the problem the GOP has is that the mainstays are still operating as if this information is limited to them. They used to get away with sht like this back in the day when all we had were newspapers and 4 channels on tv because they could easily control and frame the narrative.
- It's a little known fact that back in the old days in #Orkney, birds were scared away from crops by a dapper gentleman in a top hat calling them bounders and accusing them of rakish behaviour. #PhotographicArchives
- "Ah yes...I was something of a bounder rapscallion back in the day. Good times, jolly good times indeed"
- RFK Jr. looks like he has every single plague at the same time.
- Wait, don't you have a history of delivering plagues?
- Watching the news (regretfully) and all I can think about is that quote; "The people who want power the most are the ones who should have it the least"
- I could have lived a fulfilling and generally happy life without ever hearing the term "freak off"
- I'm more of a "freak out" man myself. youtu.be/aXgSHL7efKg?...
- So introduce a law that justifies armed self-defense against any ICE agents who don't identify themselves or produce a warrant.

Anybody can throw a mask on and run around and terrorize people of color without any regard for the law because your agency does not have proper protocols to make sure your agents are clearly identified"
- Murphy: "There's no guarantee that we are gonna have a free and fair election in 2026. He's trying to rig our democracy, to destroy dissent, to cripple the opposition, so that even if his approval ratings are in the 30s next year, there isn't the ability for his opposition to muster a real campaign"
- Okay but here's the thing; we all KNOW this about him already. We're past the "discovery phase" at this point. You are all just repeating the same facts now. We're just afraid to take the necessary action to get back on course.
- These people lose their morality because once they make a certain amount of wealth, they will be somewhat immune to the effects not speaking truth to power. Once that happens, some of them just don't GAF about the rest of us unless they need our votes or for us to buy whatever they're selling.
- Jake Tapper can take his book and shove it. The end.
- Both him AND Dana Bash are dead to me after they let Presidente' de la mancha de mandarina run rampant in that debate with no fact checking.
- “A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they shall never sit.” — Greek Proverb I have a birthday coming up and something about this saying is really fking with me.
