True blue 💙 but I look good in green, too. No DMs.
Showing up and taking the 5th is not contemptuous, it’s a constitutional right. NOT showing up at all like Jim Jordan didn’t when he was subpoenaed? THAT is contempt.
The Associated Press@apnews.com · 3mo agoBREAKING: A Senate committee votes to hold Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress over his refusal to answer questions at COVID hearing.
Mitch McConnell hasn’t been seen or heard from in 6 weeks(!) in the hospital. Yet he still has a job, still getting paid, and getting unlimited world class healthcare. The man who voted against a living wage, against universal healthcare, and against guaranteed paid leave—is now getting all three.
And if you understand how votes work in the Senate, and you follow @schumer.senate.gov voting record, you'll understand why. Schumer uses the power of the Senate to support the Trump agenda and the Trump/Netanyahu genocides in Gaza & Lebanon. With YOUR tax money.
@redriverdog@redriverdog.bsky.social · 4mo agoDonald Trump continually rages about anyone that has stood up to him. From Jimmy Kimmel to Thomas Massie. You know who he never has a problem with? Chuck Schumer.

Mamdani: And when we win these elections.. let it be heard by every pundit who sees a Muslim last name and tells that candidate to prepare a concession speech. Let it ring in courtrooms that mistake the Voting Rights Act as a suggestion, not the law of the land.
How is it possible that this document has been read by tens of millions of people all over the world on the internet but a senior senator on the Intel Committee hasn’t?
Marilou & I are still on a high from The Presidential Center Opening! A non-stop party with inspirational speeches from Barack & Michelle, followed by a FANtastic 🎶 concert (check out the artists below)! By the time Stevie Wonder performed "Higher Ground" the crowd nearly passed out from sheer joy!🥰
Same office that covered up prosecutor's crimes in the Broadview Six case just covered up a police shooting. Feds said a teen beat up a cop before he's shot. They have clear video evidence showing the kid just squirmed away from him. They hid it from the judge. Judge just set a sanctions hearing.

Anyone who says "Data centres create jobs" has never been in an actual data centre. I've been in ones where the only people working was the security guard. They're computers, not children, they generally don't need baby sitting.
“I don’t know why the President of the US behaves like this toward his allies. It’s not the first time. It is disappointing that he does not show the same determination with the enemies of the West and the US, whose leaders he instead treats with far greater indulgence.” - Italy PM Giorgia Meloni

Welp. New reporting from the Times shows I was right. Blanche asking the courts to release the Epstein files was a ruse. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/10/m...
Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com · 12mo agoI wonder if the DoJ is gonna try to pass this off as having tried to release the Epstein files. This represents about 76 pages of testimony from one FBI official.
The Trump administration says its new prediction market rules protect innovation. Critics see something else: a federal green light for companies to offer sports and election betting while bypassing state gambling laws and safeguards.

This is a sitting district court judge empowered to make factual findings and he can’t even tell whether that was an “attack”?
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 5mo agoBLUMENTHAL: Was the Capitol attacked on J6? TRAYNOR: The actions on January 6 were deeply troubling to watch, but I'm not going to characterize it B: You are perpetuating a lie. I don't know how you can continue as a district court judge, let alone serve on court of appeals. Frankly it's shameful.
