Imagine spending months claiming you’re going to make government more efficient…

…only to get outperformed by a democratic socialist mayor.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

This week, my amendment to ban billionaire-funded super PACs received unanimous support from my Democratic colleagues.

The momentum is growing. It’s time to repeal Citizens United, ban super PACs and move to the public funding of elections NOW.

[Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar]

The Director of National Intelligence has access to all our most sensitive intelligence.

Yet with everything the U.S. is facing around the world, the President has handed that responsibility to Bill Pulte, a housing regulator with no intelligence experience. Totally unqualified and our Republican colleagues know it.

Without urgent action, there is a strong likelihood the Ebola outbreak in Africa will exceed 20,000 cases and 4,000 deaths within three months, a new modeling estimate from the CDC suggests. https://t.co/cClOLZUyVY

Absolute clownery. We are at war. He’s not in the Middle East assuring allies, coordinating operations, or overseeing operations. No. He’s cosplaying as a real warrior. An Infantry officer who didn’t graduate Ranger School so he has to dress up like the actual qualified soldiers that did.

The bad moment in question:

[Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar]

Tonight, at the Humphrey-Mondale Dinner, we honored those who are upholding Melissa Hortman’s legacy, including her family and former staff. This is Minnesota.

[Keith Ellison @keithellison]

Thank you to @AndyBeshearKY for joining us to celebrate Minnesota Democrats and the people doing this work every day.

One year ago was the last Humphrey-Mondale where we saw Melissa and Mark Hortman. Their absence was felt tonight. But so was their legacy. The DFL has never just been a party. It’s people coming together, fighting for each other, and continuing the work together.

Grateful to be in this fight alongside so many incredible Minnesotans.

The @StarTribune surprised many by announcing going to a non-profit news organization. Story I read weeks before Strib announced. The @AP piece is excellent to give you insight be cause @PittsburghPG went that way.

Dave Osmek, former Senate president and GOP delegate, says he's leaving the Republican Party following a controversial state convention: "I cannot be part of this any longer," said Osmek, pointing to voting issues, and the Chauvin moment of silence.

This is what the reflecting pool *actually* looked like (at 3:06 and 3:07 p.m.) today, Friday, June 5, 2026, you imbecilic, deranged liars:

Protests have erupted in Albania over a luxury private island resort being built by Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner.

Tom Emmer says fraudsters should be denaturalized and deported (but only the non-white ones!)

Here are the 117 Democrats who voted with Republicans against Rashida Tlaib's Lebanon war powers resolution.

Thomas Massie was the one Republican to join 91 Democrats — who all bucked party leadership — in voting for it.
