Raise your hand if you’re tired of your hard-earned tax dollars going to paying interest on Washington’s debt because Republicans are more interested in giving tax cuts to billionaires than affordable healthcare to working class Americans.
#BREAKING: Liz Oyer: “I was shocked to hear Mr Blanche’s testimony about this yesterday. What he said about my firing is provably false. His claim that it had nothing to do with the concerns I raised is contradicted by documents and evidence. His claim that he tried to call me before sending marshals to my home is flat out false. His claim that it is normal for DOJ to use armed law enforcement officers to deliver mail to the homes of its former employees is preposterous. The casual lies that Mr Blanche tells, even while sitting in this chair testifying to this committee, are emblematic of a much larger problem. To the American public, it looks like Mr Blanche is running DOJ as Donald Trump’s personal law firm. Americans across the political spectrum rely on DOJ to keep us safe and free. Mr Blanche has shown that he is willing to put all of that at risk to serve a political agenda. I beg the members of this committee to think about what this is costing our country. Please do not degrade our justice system further by promoting Mr Blanche.” 😳
NPR: You were pardoned by your father...
Hunter Biden: Yes, thank God.
NPR: Did that open the door for President Trump to pardon some of his supporters including J6 gang?
Hunter Biden: That is an insane argument. Do I think that my father pardoning me opened the door for Donald Trump to pardon people that engaged in an insurrection, beat police officers, have gone back to commit crimes including sexually abusing children. I don't think the two are the same thing.
Watching ICE agents literally run away from a Mount Laurel Starbucks without their coffee because the neighborhood completely rejected them is pure gold. South Jersey will make you unwelcome every single time you show your faces. #DemsUnited
Garland didn’t START his investigation until we had our first of the summer hearings, a YEAR into our investigation.
And now he’s incredibly silent, won’t even come out to defend his career prosecutors who got fired.
Despicable
I spent the last few months talking to people across the political spectrum, and to people who want nothing to do with politics at all. Here is what I learned.
We are not a divided country. We are a country being divided, on purpose, by an American oligarchy that profits from the fight. They’ve captured our government, denied our healthcare, looted our treasury, and saddled us with crippling debt.
I believe in a New New Deal. Healthcare as a human right. The right of every family to a decent home, and an end to endless wars.
And a dividend paid to every American from the AI economy, because these machines were built on the whole of human inheritance. That inheritance belongs to all of us, and not just to the handful of men playing God with our very existence.
And none of it happens if we just move on. Donald Trump, his family, and his administration are robbing us blind, not just of our money, but of our faith in one another, and they have to answer for it. Truth and reconciliation, not revenge. Then we break the system that let them do it.
The question is not whether we will lose our democracy. The question is whether we will fight to take back what has already been stolen.
I learned in recovery that you can’t heal what you won’t name. Neither can a country.
This man is a true American patriot.
Patriotism is not waving a flag while masked government agents racially profile and indiscriminately seize Latino workers. It is understanding the Constitution, defending equal protection, and fighting for “liberty and justice for all.”
He confronted ICE and alerted his neighbors. Together, they drove the agents away. No warrant. No court order. Just an attempted drive-by, racist abduction of good, legal, law-abiding, hardworking people.
Know your rights. Stand with your neighbors. Use https://t.co/du9bv2U4pY to prepare for and respond to ICE encounters legally and constitutionally. Help keep it free: https://t.co/Hi5Yo2N2N2
Admitting you don’t have all the facts is what adults do.
He said “but he had a firearm” which he didn’t, and don’t we have a right to carry anyway?
But the @FoxNews crowd is fed lie after lie.
When their viewers hear the truth, with an open mind, they almost always wake up
How pathetic is Sen. Thom Tillis?
Tillis: Because of my deep respect for the survivors, I won’t vote for Blanche unless he meets with them.
The survivors: Well, we had a meeting and Blanche was totally unhelpful, dismissive, and disrespectful,
Tillis: I’m good.
I’m hearing from a source at the Epstein survivor meeting with Blanche that it was “deeply disappointing.” The source said it was “a patronizing meeting to check the box for Tillis’s vote.” Blanche told the survivors it wasn’t his job to investigate or prosecute anyone, instead saying that’s the FBI’s job, the source added. The survivors were told to go back to the FBI and retell their stories and point agents to the files that should be investigated. Blanche did say he thought the FBI had done a terrible job in the past on the case, according to this source.
