The same old Susan Collins charade. As soon as a controversial nominee or a bill has enough votes to pass, she announces she will vote no when it doesn’t matter. She never casts a deciding vote against Trump. Now she will claim this shows how she is so “independent.”
TRump has more Bars than Patton & MacArthur combined? In his sick world! He is commander in Chief in name only, not earned. Trump is responsible for the failure of this war. Americans pay the price in blood & at the pumps. Trump does not care!
Trump is spending our money like he has a never ending flow of it. Just like his businesses he is going to bankrupt us.
MI UPDATE: Abdul El-Sayed is currently surpassing expectations across the board in the Michigan Democratic Senate Primary.
Kansas voters rejected a ballot measure requiring state Supreme Court justices to be elected instead of appointed by the governor, another setback for Republican lawmakers trying to overturn the ruling that established a constitutional right to abortion.
These are insane numbers. If El-Sayed wins after being outspent by this much, wow, watch out!
Voters in Kansas saw through a blatant political power grab and sent a message — our courts are not for sale.
It was over for Max Miller politically when he said his wife couldn’t have been abused because she offered to make him dinner 6 days later. He may not have known it when he said it, but that was the end. You have to be a sick bastard to come up with that as your defense.
With the people’s power to effect change on the line, Missouri voters showed up to defend their rights. And in November, when abortion rights are on the ballot, they’ll do it again.
This is why this is not just about Max Miller. It’s about “devout Christian” House Republican leadership who is standing with this guy because they crave power above all else. It’s the culture of MAGA and it comes straight from Trump. Vote them out.
So now the next step is to find out what Capital One's months-long anti-money laundering review by professionals with decades of law enforcement experience discovered about Trump's 300+ accounts...
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..."
Every single campaign donor to Max Milker should be held accountable and answer for it. Every company, every individual. They are financing his career in politics despite what they know. All who write a checks going forward and donors who don’t demand a refund are complicit.
If you thought John Mitchell or Bill Barr were bad… just you wait.
The orange felon is now selling early access to his truth social propaganda posts to Wall Street firms through a service that he just launched and he’s charging $100K a month fee for that shit. This criminal literally commits fraud and corruption every single day. He should be in jail.
People are scared, exhausted, and angry. ICE is using American tax dollars to fund mistreatment and abuse at detention centers across our country. Republicans and this president are ok with us being a country that implements this kind of cruelty, but we cannot be. This is not ok.
Has it been explained why the White House needs a helipad right outside the door? Is it because he can’t walk across the lawn anymore?
Brown University has a widget that tracks the cost of the Iran war to American consumers (as contrasted to whatever the Pentagon is spending). Per-household cost now exceeds $600. iranwarcost.watson.brown.edu
We've spent so much effort, for so long, to get this. And they lit so much money on fire. Imagine how much community organizing $60 million could have gotten in Michigan. But organized community wasn't the goal.
El-Sayed numbers truly INSANE this is a movement
Everybody knows Mike Johnson can't whip his votes. Let's hope John Thune is just as inept.
Whoever advised Max Miller to go on to Jake Tapper’s show secretly hates him. What a catastrophic interview

Good thing domestic violence prosecutors don’t shrug their cases off as “a family matter” like Republican politicians. bsky.app/profile/atru...
RAJU: Sen. Moreno is calling for Max Miller to resign. Do you side w/Moreno? THUNE: It's a family matter &, um, I don't have any observations beyond that Q: If a member of Congress is facing domestic abuse allegations, should they continue to serve? T: It's a House matter. It's a family issue too
