There is a direct line between being the decisive yes vote to confirm Brett Kavanaugh and being a non-factor no vote in the confirmation of Todd Blanche. It’s all about the length the leash needs to be on any given day. #MESen #mepolitics #VoteBlue

WHY WOULD ANY USA CITIZEN BE EXEMPT FROM A TAX AUDIT??? Especially The President? He is not a KING ⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️
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!
Durbin: "Mr Blanche has aided and abetted the most corrupt administration in the history of the United States ... Blanche's willingness to casually lie under oath about he statement he made in a room full of witnesses shows the lengths he will go to to avoid offending President Trump."

He's losing words. Anyone with a parent or loved one suffering from dementia will recognize this pattern. Wen he says "moving cameras," it's because he can't recall the word "videos" and so he's stating the component parts as best he can. E.g., a "camera" is involved and the images are "moving"
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2d agoTrump: "We have photographs or tapes -- like moving cameras, right? -- where people are on the side cutting it with a box knife."
Obviously he has no compunction about making shit up himself, but I do sincerely wonder how much of his understanding of the world is based on subordinates sending him AI imagery he thinks is real.
