He promised to cut them in half in 6 months. 19 months later and we are paying higher prices but they are giving out more promises. Can we pay the bills with these promises? Can we give the power company an IOU and put Vivek down as a reference?

Trump used strong arm tactics to take government ownership in 30 big companies and counting but don’t pay attention to that or wars or the corrupt ways they are enriching themselves at your expense because Mike Johnson says Jesus loves Republicans and Democrats are communists.
El-Sayed: I think that's clearly what's gone wrong with Fetterman. It's clear he probably doesn't spend much time in Pennsylvania. He was campaigning with Bernie Sanders and now wants to renounce him. I'm hoping to get to the U.S. Senate. Maybe we can hash that conversation out in person.

holy shit -- Schiff ties Trump's judicial nominees in knots by asking them who won the 2016 before *before* asking them who won in 2020, which results in them sounding like election deniers about Trump's victories!
I never thought I’d see testimonies like this before the U.S. Congress. These are grown men who should know fact from fiction, yet they stand there shamelessly gaslighting the American people & performing for an audience of one. It’s both astonishing & deeply sad to see how far the U.S. has fallen.

Instead of meeting with Epstein survivors, what did Todd Blanche do? He rushed to Ghislaine Maxwell’s prison cell, and then she got transferred to a cushier prison camp. This is not justice. It is corruption of a system meant to protect the most vulnerable.
