This is so true. Texans you have to turn Texas back to blue. You have to want better.

Resistance to cruelty and evil is never partisan.
Schiff: "This is someone who has violated his code of ethics blatantly, misled this committee, supported establishment of a fund for cop beaters, covered up docs implicating president in the Epstein files, use DOJ to enrich the president. Is this who we're prepared to confirm as AG? It appears so."
Brown University has a widget that tracks the cost of the Iran war to American consumers (as contrasted to whatever the Pentagon is spending). Per-household cost now exceeds $600. iranwarcost.watson.brown.edu
Our thoroughly corrupt electoral system.
I’m old enough to remember when lying about adultery was worthy of impeachment. Feels quaint at this point.
it's not why *everything* sucks, but having all three branches of the federal government captured by thieves, abusers, bigots, and cowards is definitely why a lot of things suck
Schiff: "The president is entitled to his own views about me or anybody else. He is not entitled, however, to use the DOJ to go after his political opponents. The day we say that's ok and the day we confirm an AG who says that's ok is the day the rule of law becomes merely an unenforceable idea."
Been wondering for some time now exactly what it's gonna take for MAGA to realize they sound smarter when they're not speaking.
They need to hammer down relentlessly on this. They can't become overconfident, like they did with Hillary in 2016.

The president of the United States is an enemy to the United States.
Stop calling them "data centers." Start calling them pollution centers. 🧵👇

Once again. It's simple! The only reason that the Epstein files have not been published is that they incriminate the president of the United States, and those others who are in a position to stop them from being released.
Any Senator who votes to confirm Todd Blanche is also siding with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell – and is actively participating in covering-up their numerous and heinous crimes.
This is the reality inside ICE detention centers. Children are being forced into jail-like conditions while this Administration strips away their basic human rights. We cannot allow this stand. We must hold this inhumane Administration accountable!
Phang: "Capital One said, 'We don't want the business anymore of the 45th president of the United States, his businesses, his failed sons, and his revocable trust.' So you can imagine -- I am just hypothesizing... but it suggests whatever Capital One uncovered was pretty bad. Makes you wonder..."
Whitehouse: "Today I think is a sad and embarrassing day for this committee as it looks like on a party-line vote we are going to advance out of this committee probably the most discreditable person ever to seek the office of attorney general. Let's start with the Epstein files ... "
More cops have been arrested for using flock cameras to stalk women than there are transgender athletes in youth sports.
First it was Iran to push the Epstein files off the front page. Then, when the Iran war turned into a fiasco, it was back to the 2020 election and Covid. Every crisis needs a new distraction.
DOJ is now 0-20 in cases to obtain state voter files. Here is the list: Arizona California Colorado Connecticut Illinois Kentucky Maine Maryland Massachusetts Michigan New Hampshire New Jersey New Mexico New York Oregon Pennsylvania Rhode Island Virginia West Virginia Wisconsin
A 60 Minutes probe into Epstein's banking, with Wyden already interviewed, vanished right after Sharyn Alfonsi got pushed out under Bari Weiss. Same editor who stalled the CECOT migrant story until Stephen Miller got a say. CBS keeps calling it timing. Sure looks like a pattern.
60 Minutes Epstein Banking Story Vanished After CBS Ousted Sharyn Alfonsi, Dem Senator Reveals
Wyden revealed he was interviewed for the show in a Senate report alleging the country's largest banks turned “a blind eye” to Epstein's financial activity
