Editorial: Ron Johnson, Scott Fitzgerald and Tom Tiffany should resign or be expelled for siding with Trump against our republic https://t.co/fwI2DPKZDh via @journalsentinel
They didn't want to award the Capitol Police a medal or a plaque but want to reward the people who orchestrated and took part in the violence that injured me and ended my career. In the name of national reconciliation, they pardoned the same rioters who attacked us and now being rewarded for the violence they inflicted on us the officers.
They are trying to make the lives of the rioters whole or better than before they assaulted us. Yet to the officers, no apology, no compensation, no acknowledgment of the bravery and sacrifice we made to protect “each of your representatives” regardless of what party they belong.
Why did we risk our lives for then?
What a betrayal this is to us and to the rule of law days after “police week”.
Keep posting this so people don’t forget how truly bad this event was.
Don’t let people gaslight you into thinking it was peaceful and worthy of 1500+ pardons and slush fund payoffs.
America's eight biggest retailers made $548 BILLION after the Trump tax cuts.
They spent $340 billion on dividends & stock buybacks for rich investors.
And their CEOs were paid $1.3 billion.
THAT'S what happens when you cut corporate taxes—not lower costs, not worker raises.
I loved my time at Heritage Action and was proud to be a co-founder of what was such an important part of the conservative movement. So I say this with respect and sadness:
There is nothing conservative about backing threats to a state’s federal funding because it declines to push a President’s own political agenda - that is unconstitutional and coercive to states.
What would conservatives say if a Democrat threatened states federal funding to redraw congressional maps?
Republicans gave $132 billion in tax breaks to the top 1% in 2027.
With that money, we could have extended ACA tax credits for over 20 million people next year and still have $100 billion left over.
Republicans in the Indiana Senate have decisively defeated the proposed redistricting map, in a huge defeat for President Trump. The vote was 31-19. A majority of the 40 Republicans voted no. Read why they did here: https://t.co/kPpztNGoYL
The Trump administration openly says that it will use its domestic spying capabilities to target people who oppose ICE’s actions. And ICE has been bulking up on the latest surveillance technology. https://t.co/qNPbmHH5Vc
My bipartisan IRS MATH Act with @SenBillCassidy is now law.
Now, if you mess up your taxes, the IRS has to tell you where you made a mistake & how to fix it.
No more spending a fortune on lawyers or hours to find errors.
That means fewer headaches & more money in your pocket.

Yes. We need Medicare for All — NOW.
Some of the nation’s largest law firms warn clients to prepare for politically motivated federal probes stemming from Trump’s domestic terrorism directive, which could be used to stifle dissent and revoke tax-exempt status from left-leaning nonprofits. https://t.co/WXWB1tQgBX
Democrats are fighting to preserve an Obamacare tax credit. Without it, a 55-year-old couple making $85K would see their premiums more than triple to $24,535.
Trump and his allies are ramping up their dangerous and anti-democratic threats, using Charlie Kirk’s murder to suppress progressive political activity.
The administration’s latest attack? Left-leaning non-profits they claim promote violence.

“It is clear there is an intent to destroy the Palestinians in Gaza through acts that meet the criteria set forth in the Genocide Convention.”
UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry's report shows #Israel has committed #genocide in #Gaza.

Amnesty strongly condemns Israel’s deliberate killing of journalists in an air strike on a media tent in occupied Gaza City.
Anas al-Sharif and his colleagues have been the eyes and voices of Gaza. Starved and exhausted, they continued to bravely report from the frontlines, despite death threats and immense grief.
No conflict in modern history has seen a higher number of journalists killed than Israel’s genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
There must be an independent and impartial investigation into the killings of Palestinian journalists, with justice and full reparation for their families. States must urgently act to bring an end to Israel’s genocide now.
Ms. Rachel is often called the Mister Rogers for the new generation.
She's been thinking about how Rogers used his huge platform to represent what he stood for — equality and pacifism — as she navigates her own advocacy for children in Gaza and elsewhere. https://t.co/JAaBV0NvrS
I’ve reported 18 wars over 35 years. I’ve been shot at, kidnapped, threatened, nearly raped. I’ve lost friends from Sarajevo to Syria. I thought I’d seen the worst of humanity. I was wrong. Nothing compares to Gaza — or the complicity letting it happen.
