Sanders: The irony is that the proper criticism of communism is that the Soviet Union was an authoritarian society. And then you’ve got the most authoritarian president in the history of this country. So I suppose when he says, “I’d be a great communist,” yeah, I think there’s some truth to that
We proved it in Wisconsin. We proved it in New York City. We proved it in dozens of special elections over the past year. People power over money!
Abdul El-Sayed was outspent 9-to-1 by AIPAC and corporate Super PACs in the most expensive Senate Democratic primary of all time. Last night, he proved that organized people can beat organized money.
What’s even weirder than Trump having a personally assigned “diaper nurse” is that everyone in Trump’s orbit knows that’s her job, and they carry on like everything is fine.
The sheer brazenness of their lies to the American people is staggering.
Then cut me a check for all the money I paid into it, including interest. So we can’t retire and will be forced to work until our last breath? Shameful. 😡
They could not look guiltier if they tried. If Mitch is dead/incapacitated, These people should be in prison for fraud/racketeering. They’re defrauding the people of Kentucky for their salaries at the VERY least. @govandybeshear.bsky.social #MissingMitchMcconnell
Trump's Affordability Crisis is being brought to you by Trump's Corruption Crisis.
“What are you protecting, Thom Tillis? You’re done. They hate you.” @jvl.bsky.social unloads on Tillis for still running interference for the president who ended his career.

The GOP is desperately trying to rewrite history, but just a reminder that Donald Trump was president during the lockdowns, and he awarded Fauci a presidential commendation for his work on COVID. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
The Fauci hearing was a disgrace. Here are some reminders of how it really went down in 2020. Never forget.
Holy shit! Jim Jordan is reduced to stammering when Kasie Hunt presses him on why he continues to support Max Miller despite credible allegations that he abused his ex-wife and toddler daughter
According to the latest Fox News poll, if the election were held today, we would own the House and the Senate, so let’s make sure we’re all registered and vote big in November!
"What will shock you are the words spoken by Marco Rubio and Stephen Miller in their prepared remarks to the 'ministerial.' Because they weren’t just shameless, or hypocritical. These two men went full Nazi."
Marco Rubio and Stephen Miller, in the Original German
They keep telling you who they are.

"A concentration camp, in its most basic definition, is a place where a targeted civilian population, not necessarily accused of a crime, is detained and at least some of their basic rights are suspended," writes @jwashing.bsky.social. "That’s precisely what’s happening in the United States today."
Don’t call them ICE detention centers. Call them camps | John Washington
I’ve spent a decade reporting on immigration enforcement. The word ‘camp’ best captures the political function of these facilities

Senator John McCain warned us about Rand Paul when he said, “The senator from Kentucky is now working for Vladimir Putin.”
When Justice is blind, bad guys take the fifth. When justice is corrupt, good guys take the fifth. Feel free to share.

It’s corruption on steroids in plain sight. He doesn’t even try to hide that he’s looting US and cashing in on insider trading. He’s the most corrupt president in American history.
Running out of body bags, using forklifts to transfer corpses into makeshift morgues, a mortician conducting 200 funerals in a month when he usually does 30, crematories running at double capacity… And these senators just want to memory-hole it all www.nytimes.com/2020/04/30/n...

I'm old enough to remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs. We dutifully lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives. What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.
