Honestly is anyone surprised? I'm not. This is what you get when you elect a criminal who wants to be king to be President. Project 2025 told us exactly what was going to happen. And here we are.
Release the Epstein Files. Lock up the Epstein ‘Philes.
Folks from the Women's March have been arrested at the Capitol for protesting ICE. Shout out to the women who are putting their lives and livelihoods on the line to get their message out: ABOLISH ICE.
www.samsung-news.com/articles/32K... Everyone and their brothers and sisters know it to be true. And this is another reason we cannot trust our own government to follow thru with anything. Just like investigating Epstien.
El-Sayed: "Once a government agency like ICE is told it has impunity to do the worst things and violate the highest law of the land, which is the Constitution itself, I don't think you can reform or retrain. I think we need to start from scratch ... I think we need to abolish it."
The president of the United States is an enemy to the United States.
Right now we mourn America. In November, we can celebrate it again. youtu.be/4V4DHronVWE

The problem is, even if there is a process, it relies on people being transparent and the senate enforcing the rules. And that is clearly not going to happen in this regime.
Everyone’s expectations got skewed over the past week but Abdul El-Sayed getting $70 million spent against him in a state he lost a primary by like 20 points eight years ago and still winning last night is probably the most impressive electoral accomplishment of the decade.
Taking it as read that Max Miller is a horrible person who should not be in Congress, I am also astonished that he has no one around him who can give him the obvious advice to shut up and stop talking. The guy can't speak without making himself look worse but insists on doing a bunch of TV.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · yesterdayRep. Max Miller: "When I was reported for child abuse of my daughter for a broken collarbone, my daughter was in my ex-wife's care 9 out of the last 11 days and she took her to the emergency room, which is a contempt violation from our shared parenting plan."
Young people under 40 better wake tf up- this 80 year old dirty stink is destroying your future. The 5 guys running this country put this party fluffer in charge of “cosmetics”, so you don’t notice them.
The President of the United States is a liar and has been convicted of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records.
Notice DOJ doesn't talk about its efforts to obtain state voter files anymore. They are 0-20 in those cases and today is the beginning of the quiet period -- states can no longer do systematic removals of names from the voter rolls. TLDR: We won!🥳
Yesterday Once More: Happy Birthday to President Obama 65 and Knicks in 5 🤩👊🏽
BREAKING: The New Mexico Department of Justice has sued Acting AG Todd Blanche and the DOJ, requesting the court for access to unredacted Epstein-related investigative files that the DOJ has been withholding.

Michigan Democrats chose Abdul El-Sayed because he’s a fighter willing to stand up to the tyrant in the Oval Office. Corporate Democrats like Chuck Schumer aren't up to the task because they won’t bite the corporate hands that feed them.

They need to hammer down relentlessly on this. They can't become overconfident, like they did with Hillary in 2016.
As a Missourian, I simply cannot fathom how we can utterly destroy 2 horrendous MAGA-adjacent Amendments like 4 and 5, yet CONTINUE to vote for the Republican assholes who proposed them in the first place. It really makes my head hurt sometimes trying to understand the mental gymnastics there.

They know voters hate this shit. So they wait until Blanche has the votes for Collins to come out against him. So she can claim to be a moderate. So she gets reelected. So she can spend the next two years voting for more Todd Blanches.
Collins Watch@collinswatch.bsky.social · yesterdaySusan comes out against Todd Blanche now that he's got the votes. So tiresome. (We called it: tinyurl.com/3bepafkz) #MEpolitics
