Senate Judiciary Democrats 🇺🇸@judiciarydems.senate.gov · yesterday

Sen. SCHIFF: The fundamental problem with Todd Blanche isn’t that he’s inexperienced or not intelligent. The problem with Todd Blanche is that he’s never been able to shed his role as criminal defense lawyer for Donald Trump. He just can’t do it.

No news show should be booking RFK Jr. without an eject button. He’s spent years spreading dangerous misinformation with real-world consequences, then pretending none of it was his fault.

Sick. These people are sick.

An initiative on the ballot in Washington state in November would require all athletes seeking to play girl's sports from kindergarten to high school to undergo "genetic screening, a testosterone-levels test, or an examination of their reproductive anatomy" before they can play

As @RepThomasMassie warns against taking the “fake fox/GOP outrage” seriously — it’s worth pointing out Fox is calling Ceuta “northern spain” to make it seem scarier when it’s actually in North Africa, across the water from the southern tip of Spain. 🤦🏼

Reminder: The 2008 primary. Democratic establishment said to pick Hillary Clinton...or else. The people chose Barack Obama. It was ugly, nasty, and vicious. Obama won. What happened? He crushed McCain, turned around and asked Clinton to be his Sec of State, and then beat Romney as well.

A broken political system got us here. A broken legal system. A broken corporate media ecosystem. Broken markets. Broken regulations. Broken statutes. Broken incentives. A broken, corrupted business environment. A broken dominant cultural paradigm. And frankly, a broken culture.

Ok, now that's funny

Bad news: The 30-year Treasury yield hit a 19-year high today. 🚨🚨🚨 America's going to have to pay more for its colossal debt, which will soon hit $40 trillion. Interest already tops $1T a year and is growing rapidly. Latest GOP/WH plans would increase the deficit. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

It seems like a very bad thing that the president of the United States can launch a war on nothing more than a whim and spend trillions of dollars with no oversight whatsoever.

Dead or alive, Mitch McConnell is on extended medical leave — on your dime. This is the same Mitch McConnell who voted against: paid family and medical leave for everyone else.

Hey I know inflation is out of control and a lot of folks can’t afford basic necessities, but at least we’re tackling waste fraud and abuse by buying… *checks notes* 250 Escalades for the government.

Cool? #votethemallout

trump: we'll be building data centers at a level nobody has ever seen before

Must. Read.

It’s the question hanging over American politics like a dark shroud: If Donald Trump is willing to plot insurrection, ignore court orders, & purge the DOJ and the FBI, what’s to stop him from simply stealing the 2026 midterm elections? open.substack.com/pub/thecycle...

Restoring credibility to the Justice Department, the CDC, FDA etc. The first term of the next Democratic president will be a clean up job.

The Republicans' cryptocurrency bill would let the Trump family continue to cash in on its crypto scam, including one venture launched just 72 hours before the inauguration. Trump made more than $1B from crypto in a year; his memecoin investors lost $3.8B.

Andrew and Tristan Tate, wanted on a raft of serious charges in the UK, and I ask why top Democrats don’t seem interested in making clear how close the Tates have grown to the Trump family and the Republican Party they own?

I do appreciate the unleashing of Senator Dr Cassidy. Truly the best thing about him losing his primary

Trump was elected while Obama was president Trump was elected when Biden was president Trump lost the election while he was president But the democrats are cheating? How?

Everyone is focused on trump relitigating 2020. That's the distraction. The real target is Nov. 2026. He needs a fraud narrative already baked in before midterms so he can justify whatever comes next when MAGA loses seats. Pay attention to what he's building, not what he's pretending to remember.

Defiance Dispatch@defiancedispatch.bsky.social · 3w ago

Yes, Trump can’t get over the fact that he lost in 2020, but the other part of his election denial crusade is creating a pretext to meddle in the upcoming 2026 midterm elections. The upcoming Big Lie presser is meant to justify further interference because Trump/ MAGA are desperate to stay in power.

Isn't it weird that this week a currently sitting president had to pay a woman MILLIONS of dollars for *raping* (and defaming) her—and the media has forgotten all about it? There was a time that this would have been the ONLY story—until the rapist was driving from office.
