Progressive Liberal fed up w/alt right, far right, tea party and hypocritical, lying, cheating, thieving republicans and their sheep. Bitches get shit done.

BREAKING: A grand jury has indicted the Trump Organization and its CFO, Allen Weisselberg, over allegations of unpaid taxes on benefits for Trump Organization executives. Weisselberg will turn himself in tomorrow.

A working class parent in Texas spends, on average, $16,386 in child care expenses for an infant and a 4-year-old — nearly $5,000 MORE than they spend in a year on housing. That is crazy stuff! We must make child care affordable for working class families in this country.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

For those who say the budget framework I proposed costs "too much" what would you cut?

Combatting climate change?

Childcare?

Universal Pre-K?

Paid family & medical leave?

Dental, hearing & vision?

Housing?

Long-term home health care?

Child Tax Credit?

Waiting...

@josephcollins77 @BillKristol Given that @USAA wants to be the provider of choice for members of the military, you would think they wouldn’t support anyone who called one of their own a “pig” and “stupid” or someone one who called to defund the military. They certainly aren’t my choice.

Nailed it.

First of all, I’m taller than her

[Helena Handbasket 🇺🇸 💙🏳️‍🌈☕🍷🖕🏼 @HeIenaHandbaskt]

So... are we just collectively not acknowledging these ridiculously shallow, depressingly degrading, scathingly misogynistic game ads?
Like, can we just not handle one more thing so we're pretending it isn't happening?
I just wanted to clarify.

[Helena Handbasket 🇺🇸 💙🏳️‍🌈☕🍷🖕🏼 @HeIenaHandbaskt]

@ColMorrisDavis @USAA Well. This is terribly disappointing. I expected so much better.
Now I have to shop for new insurance. 😠

@PalmerReport Don't tease like this. I never want to see this tweet again until it's actually happening. Not even just a conviction, I want him being handcuffed, loaded into a bus to be driven to an actual prison, where he will be incarcerated for a min of 10 years and preferably (a LOT) more.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Wow, who could have possibly predicted that Senate Republicans were wasting months of a Dem majority’s precious time negotiating in bad faith 😱 just to suddenly renege on a bipartisan agreement w/ new, mercurial demands 😱 after doing exactly the same w the Jan 6th commission 😱

[Terry Canales @TerryCanales40]

As we prepare for the upcoming special session, I remain extremely disappointed that the salaries of 2,000+ state employees including my staff have been put at risk because of ridiculous and probably unconstitutional political games. #Txlege

[Brian Tyler Cohen @briantylercohen]

Republicans demand that you stand for the flag-- and then use it to bludgeon cops.

They demand you support the troops-- and then call to defund the military.

They demand freedom of speech-- and then try to ban theories they don't agree with.

The hypocrisy is beyond obvious.

My name is Jen. I’m one of the #txlege staffers defunded by Greg Abbott.

Apparently now I’m supposed to ask for Twitter followers?

I have no clue how that helps pay my salary or give me health insurance come Sept 1, but my colleagues and I are trying to stay in good spirits. 🤷🏽‍♀️

[Julie Johnson for Texas @juliejohnsonTX]

I signed because everyone should have the ability to see a doctor when they get sick. Period. Even more, they need to be able to afford the life-saving medications those doctors prescribe.

Under @GregAbbott_TX's "leadership" Texans are dying.
