I know this is Kansas, but Roger Marshall is an utter dipshit who has spent a lot of time on television saying stupid spiteful things and Democrats should at least be able to make this a tough seat to hold.
The Cook Political Report@cookpolitical.com · 19h agoAfter Rev. Adam Hamilton's win in the Kansas Democratic Senate primary to take on GOP Sen. Roger Marshall, we shift the race into a more competitive category, from Solid to Likely Republican. Read this from @jessicataylor.bsky.social:
Terrorism and threats against judges is becoming far too common in the U.S. wapo.st/4yUVsjf
This federal judge ruled against Trump. Then the threats began.
U.S. District Judge John McConnell’s experience is emblematic of the climate facing jurists, whether nominated by Democratic or Republican presidents.

Mike Johnson has been protecting and defending a sex abuser for many years now, and he happens to be the president, so protecting and defending Max Miller, while abhorrent, is VERY Mike Johnson.
Kyle Griffin@kylegriffin1.bsky.social · 9h agoMike Johnson tells Politico that he's standing behind Republican Max Miller — despite the "serious" domestic abuse allegations against him.
ICE has detained over 50 parents and spouses of active-duty service members during Trump's second term.
People are scared, exhausted, and angry. ICE is using American tax dollars to fund mistreatment and abuse at detention centers across our country. Republicans and this president are ok with us being a country that implements this kind of cruelty, but we cannot be. This is not ok.
If I'm sick I have to report to a DC govt clinic after 3 days or submit hospital/physician paperwork explaining what's up. And I get 4 hours of sick leave every two weeks.

Edwin Lopez Cornejo, a young man who was detained at Delaney Hall, died this weekend. He leaves behind a family and community who deserve answers.
We can’t lose sight of this. Millions of families are going hungry in this country because Donald Trump wanted to give a tax break to billionaires. It’s a moral abomination.
Yep. Earlier this year I was interviewed by Sharyn Alfonsi of 60 Minutes about my Epstein investigation. Subsequently, CBS pulled the segment and fired the reporter. The MAGA buyout of media is aiding the Trump administration’s Epstein cover up.
The New Republic@newrepublic.com · yesterdayBanks permitted millions in suspicious transactions tied to Epstein—and former 60 Minutes correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi had the story months ago. But the report would never air. trib.al/ZShZlIS
What a sick society to bet on the misery of others, the risk to brave firefighters, and the loss of precious nature and wildlife.

@booker.senate.gov: “This is the Judiciary Committee. We are supposed to be checking and balancing this nation.” Instead, he says Republicans are “surrendering any shred of integrity left.”
As Republicans advance Todd Blanche to be Attorney General, @whitehouse.senate.gov has a blunt assessment: “Today is a sad and embarrassing day for this committee.
Last year, Republicans cut Medicaid by $1 TRILLION. Now as working people face the reality of this betrayal, Republicans claim it was about fighting fraud. Give me a break. Republicans cut Medicaid to pay for tax cuts for the billionaire class. Don't let them rewrite history.
Our democracy depends on free & fair elections. The President’s Attorney General nominee Todd Blanche should be able to definitively say that he would not deploy armed federal agents to polling places, but he didn't. I oppose his nomination.
Republicans held a hearing on Medicaid fraud today, so I asked a top health expert: what bill delivered the largest cuts to Medicaid in American history? Yep. Trump's Big Ugly Bill. Seems to me like the biggest Medicaid theft actually happened last year in Congress.
We need to crack down on Medicaid fraud. I completely agree. But what Republicans didn't mention at today's hearing on this very topic is that Trump pardoned criminals that were convicted of MAJOR Medicaid fraud. WATCH ⬇️

Seniors shouldn’t have to skip or ration their medication. EVER!
Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth have completely botched this war. Yesterday, Trump said that Phase 1 is to open the Strait of Hormuz. His goal is now to fix the thing he broke. And the only thing the American people have to show for it is higher prices.

This is important to note! Republicans scheduled their Medicare cuts for January 2027. They want to say, “Look! The Democrats took back the House and cut your Medicare.” If you know someone on Medicare, expose the Republicans' dirty trick. #USDemocracy #MomSky #RepublicanMedicareCuts
Gloria Pan@glopan.bsky.social · 21h agoThe Big Ugly Bill cut Medicare by $536 billion starting AFTER the elections. What kind of thoughtless idiocy cuts programs that seniors' lives depend on and thinks they won't notice? #MomSky #RepublicanMedicareCuts
Mr. Holani was: 1. Unlawfully detained without due process, 2. Shackled & coerced to sign a document, and 3. Lied to about the document, which authorized the gov’t to deport him. This is a government without decency, without respect for the constitution, & not worthy of your respect.
