Ken Paxton failed to disclose he secretly purchased real estate worth millions of dollars in Hawaii, Florida, and Utah. Experts say this is a direct violation of Texas state ethics rules.
Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.
Every Republican is an enemy to the United States. They dishonor their oath of office daily.
The president of the United States is an enemy to the United States.
Facts suck, if you're delusional and in a cult.
We need a majority of voters to focus on 2026 and 2028.
“.. he is so set on avenging his election loss and pursuing retribution against his political enemies that he has Americans looking backward when many have signaled they would rather he explain why the country is at war ..” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2026/08/03/u...
📌Susan Collins is voting "no" on the repulsive Blanche because she has been given political cover by Thune. Her vote doesn't matter. This isn't a heroic decision, it is pure politics, and whether anybody wants to admit it or not it's how she has survived like a parasite in that chamber for 30 years.
Stolen valor from Mr. Bone Spurs. An insult to every man and woman who has worn the uniform.
I’m old enough to remember when lying about adultery was worthy of impeachment. Feels quaint at this point.
BREAKING: Sen. Dick Durbin accuses Todd Blanche of lying under oath. He says Blanche told him in his office — with witnesses — that the slush fund was a mistake. In his confirmation hearing, Blanche denied that remark.
More than farcical. It's treasonous.
Booker: "Ghislaine Maxwell is sitting in the lowest possible confinement after giving no information that helped us get one more investigation started and has been silent, and the man responsible for that we're about to make the attorney general of the US ... this is farcical."
Republicans have convinced gullible Americans to fear a trans athlete in their daughter's sport more than they fear their daughter losing her healthcare.

Also a fact that 70million voters don't care if he's rapist. He bragged about sexual assault. They knew in 2016.
The proposition that the president of the United States is an adjudicated rapist isn't an argument. It is a fact.
All this makes me wonder how any American can support the Republican Party that caters & craters to this criminal.
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..."
𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚🚨 "While he was detained, he lost 30 lbs. He had high blood pressure-he had diabetes. They refused him his medication...& I'm going to grow up without a father.. #ICE tried to cover up the fact that they killed him...They're just Heartless monsters." —preteen daughter of Edwin Lopez-Cornejo
Anyone who votes for a Republican is a traitor and a fool. Every Democrat, even the ones you disagree with on serious issues, will support women's & voters' rights, & prevent 3 more radical justices on SCOTUS who'll last decades longer than this member of Congress.
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 ... "
You could have voted no on Blanche. Idiot.
Cornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"
You could grow a spine and do your damn jobs.
Cornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"
We disgrace ourselves as a nation each and every day Donald Trump remains in office. The drafters of the United States Constitution provided a remedy for a criminally insane president like the one we have—impeachment and removal ...
Tlaib. a Congresswoman from the state of Michigan refused to support the Democratic nominee for president in 2024 and pushed her community & other Arab/Muslim all across this country to vote against Harris and support DT Now this woman expect Black voters to reward her for the damage caused.HELL-NO.
Yup. You did. And cancer research for children was first to go.
I'm going to alienate some people now. Abortion is a critical part of gynecological care. Full stop. Hormonal birth control is used by many individuals simply to regulate difficult menstrual cycles. Legislators who don't understand the minutiae of reproductive biology should SHUT THE FUCK UP.
I’m fed up with my California taxes going to shore up failed Republican states.
Our rapist in chief likes to talk shit about blue cities (I assume so people in red states don’t demand more) Los Angeles sure is a real hellhole
@dodgersbot.bsky.social Another big loss with pitchers giving up multiple home runs & walks. Gave 30 runs in 4 straight losses. Since they announced the White House invite on July 9 their record is 8 -11. They've only won 2 of 11 at home. Coincidence or karma?
Everybody is leaving California? Everybody? The only thing leaving my state is our tax money going to shore up failing Republican states. I've had enough of that and these lying pieces of dreck.

Both Israel & USA deserve better leadership. Both democracies have elections coming up. Both nations must return to their founding values to do good in this world.
Donald Trump, The Republican party, Netanyahu and Vladimir Putin are the Axis of Pure Evil.
