Hearings like this are a reminder that if you work for Donald Trump, you are a person of low character and have no integrity. There are no exceptions.

😮 Trump's nominees are the most pathetic men in the world 😮 During a hearing, Blumenthal made Trump nominees squirm by asking them who won the 2020 election -- a question they refuse to answer -- but then Schiff upped the ante by asking them *who won the 2016 election.* Here's a supercut:

Seriously, Congress can’t get answers about what is happening with VZ oil revenues.

God forbid? God would love that. Abolish ICE!

JD Vance: "We don't want the next administration, whoever -- god forbid you're gonna have President El-Sayed in three years ... "

Josh Turek wants something better for Iowans — he’s the Dem running to flip the Senate. Just an amazing human being! He wants to lower costs, raise wages, restore Roe,protect workers, SS & Medicare, reproductive healthcare and will fight for farmers and education. More of this 🙏🏼 #BlueWaveIn90Days

The people are speaking. And it’s absolutely terrifying to the 1%.

When your party leader is a president with historically low approval ratings, who has raised prices through tariffs and wars, uses disaster relief and science grants to punish states that didn’t vote for him, and has agents shooting people in the streets, this is what you do.

Talarico’s argument is simple: Stop treating marijuana like a crime. Legalize it. Regulate it. Tax it. Stop wasting police resources on low-level marijuana offenses. Clear the records of people whose lives have been derailed by nonviolent marijuana convictions.

The Heritage Foundation is run by Opus Dei Catholics Kevin Roberts and Roger Severino. More than 50% of the 100 orgs behind Project 2025 were funded by Opus Dei affiliated Leonard Leo. Miss the faith driven politics and you miss the story. jesspiper.substack.com/p/give-them-...

El-Sayed: "Mike Rogers is a guy who wants to put a data center in your backyard so he can make himself feel a little more manly by making an AI video ... he's a guy who went back to Florida so he could lick every single boot Donald Trump owns to bet for his endorsement."

The “Why would a woman I’ve made worry that I will hurt her if she displeases me cook to placate me?” question is only asked by the least self-aware domestic abusers.

The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.

Here's a supercut from Abdul El-Sayed's first post-primary news conference:

Let’s level set. MICHIGAN is a must-win if we want to flip the Senate. A word caution: This race was tighter than many predicted. El-Sayed needs Stevens supporters in the general, so it’s not smart strategy to keep them angry. Welcome them. Focus on issues. Time is short, so healing must be quick

Haley Stevens says she will fully support @abdulelsayed.bsky.social

BREAKING: The New Mexico Department of Justice has sued Acting AG Todd Blanche and the DOJ, requesting the court for access to unredacted Epstein-related investigative files that the DOJ has been withholding.

#GA Did you know that Jon Ossoff spent years exposing corruption as an investigative journalist? Now in the Senate, he refuses corporate PAC money & is leading the fight to ban stock trading by members of Congress. When you don't take checks from special interests, you're free to work for families.

Max Miller just said all 3 women who accused him of violence are lying and the American people should believe him. Hm… NO.

We need to support our Dem candidates, Jon Ossoff is under attack Elon Musk is giving millions it’s important that we don’t allow Elon Musk to buy this election. We must donate to make sure that our blue candidates win. I just gave five dollars to Jon Ossoff every little bit helps help dems win!

📌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.

A vote to confirm Todd Blanche is a vote against justice for Epstein survivors.

Only Lindell would try to bribe voters with a shitty pillow.

Would a 2028 Harris campaign mean reliving 2024? Pete Buttigieg says no. “This is about bigger things than whether somebody gets their feelings hurt by a page in a book,” he said. “This is about the trajectory of Western civilization.” 🔗 politi.co/3RSLiin

On July 1, 2025, RFK Jr's Dept of Health announced that the CDC's Foodborne Diseases Active Surveillance Network (FoodNet), would stop surveilling illnesses caused by Campylobacter, Cyclospora, Listeria, Shigella, Vibrio, and Yersinia as part of an effort to reduce federal funding. 13 months later:

The In-N-Out Burger shooter comes from a family immersed in Trump propaganda. The shooter loved General Flynn, Elon Musk, and RFK Jr. He was pro-natalist and wanted to join ICE, but didn't have a college degree.

The shooter at the In-N-Out Burger in Twin Falls, Idaho that killed 3 people and injured 2 people is a Republican, white male. Shocked.

the intentional abdication by Congress of nearly all of its constitutional responsibilities is at the core of most of our problems as a nation
