listen up democrats: we did not vote for you for y'all to find common ground and reach across the aisle. we voted for you to crush our enemies, to see them driven before us, to hear the lamentations of their women
Alabama case came out exactly as predicted. No one should be shocked or surprised. This is a completely corrupt and broken Supreme Court that literally went against its own reasoning to promote a rigged, racist map in Alabama to help Republicans. Reform the Court or democracy dies.
Let’s call them the Trump/Rubio/Vance/Musk cuts. Because all 4 of them worked to make this happen
According to this Harvard study, Elon Musk's cuts to USAID through DOGE are responsible for an estimated 400,000 preventable deaths of children in Africa. hsph.harvard.edu/news/usaid-s...

Watching a series of former Confederate states rush to eliminate any vestige of black representation in the House pretty much answers the question whether the Voting Rights Act was still necessary.
12.7M acres of solar is is about 82% of the solar required to decarbonize the US in the Net Zero America E+ scenario (there's wind and existing nuclear and stuff in there too, but that's the solar portion). Or we can have 5% of our gasoline displaced.
The Farm Bureau estimates that a year-round increase from E10 to E15 (15% ethanol blend in gasoline) would increase US corn demand by 2.4 billion bushels a year. Latest yields per USDA are 188.8 bushels/acre, so growing it requires another 12.7 million acres. That’s about half the size of Indiana.
If an official commits an impeachable offense and nobody acts to impeach, it is no longer an impeachable offense. People who oppose impeachment as “pointless” because it seems unlikely to result in removal do not understand this very simple point and seem unwilling to even try to understand it.
It's been 65 days since Donald Trump invaded a sovereign state, abducted its leader, and declared the US will "run" the state indefinitely It's been 9 days since Trump launched a war (his word) against Iran without congressional approval No House member has filed articles of impeachment for either
The future of the GOP is Nazi. People still aren't paying attention.
The secretary of Miami-Dade County’s GOP started a group chat for conservative students — and within 3 weeks, it was filled with over 400 instances of the N-word, Nazi rhetoric and writings of "dozens of ways of violently killing Black people"
I don’t want to share the video because it’s pretty graphic, but apparently we’re at the ‘Republican Senator breaks the arm of a Marine IN FULL DRESS because that marine was protesting the Republicans starting a war of choice with Iran’ stage of things.
Iran doesn’t have nuclear weapons
If America still had the rule of law, this would be the easiest prosecution ever, but we all know absolutely nothing will happen.
As US and Israeli bombs fell on Iran this weekend, bettors on Polymarket — where $529 million was traded on contracts tied to the timing of the strikes — were cashing in
sure the pedophile felon president just illegally bombed a country that may have nukes while federal forces under his command murder and harass people in america and immigrants are tortured and he moves forward with plans to build concentration camps and sorry idk where i was going fuck all of this
They killed schoolchildren, Chuck. Your “imploring” isn’t going to solve shit. Resign and let someone willing to fight against fascism take over.
My statement on President Trump’s strikes on Iran:
So when thousands of women (and children) were being duplicated--including in non-consensual AI porn--it was no big deal. But it took "only a 15-sec clip" of these two famous white men to draw outrage and fear. Gotcha. Cool cool.
It took only a 15-second clip of Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt duking it out on a crumbling rooftop — made by A.I. with a two-sentence prompt and the click of a button — to draw swift outrage, and sizable fear, from Hollywood. "It’s nothing short of terrifying," one scriptwriter said.
Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.
So happy to have @ramirez.house.gov as my rep in the house.
Counterpoint to Schumer's milquetoast ▶️ "The Department of Homeland Security was created intentionally after 9/11 to violate people's rights under the guise of protecting the homeland." - @ramirez.house.gov shared some powerful thoughts w @marisakabas.bsky.social re the need to dismantle the DHS.
This is the 38th time that the U.S. military has unlawfully killed civilians on the orders of Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump. At least 130 people — never charged with crimes, their identities unknown to their executioners — are now dead.
We are murdering people and it is basically just background noise at this point. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/09/u...
They're building concentration camps, Chuck. Killing American citizens. If ICE isn't following the standards that other agencies follow, then they're breaking the law, Chuck. I don't want my tax dollars going to support any of this, Chuck. 4 out of 5 Democrats agree.
Our DHS reform demands are exceedingly reasonable. We're asking ICE to do nothing more than follow the standards that the vast majority of law enforcement agencies already follow. Republicans, the ball is in your court. The clock is ticking.

Bon Iver says he is wearing a whistle at the Grammys to honour the peaceful observers in Minneapolis
Today I saw ICE gas little white kids in the streets of Portland with chemical weapons. Imagine what they're doing to brown and black kids in the detention camps
I was there. They were indiscriminately firing multiple canisters into a huge peaceful crowd. Fucking cowards
