Today 193 Republicans voted to keep insulin at $1200/mo instead of $35. Tomorrow every Republican will ask you to be outraged that gas is $4.30 instead of $3.30.

In the GOP world, $1200 for insulin in fair play but $4.30 for gas is an outrage.

Vote them all out.

Clarence Thomas should resign.

If not, his failure to disclose income from right-wing organizations, recuse himself from matters involving his wife, and his vote to block the Jan 6th commission from key information must be investigated and could serve as grounds for impeachment.

An Army Lt Colonel blaming America for Putin invading Ukraine while repeating Russian talking points is something

THREAD. I noticed something fascinating: around the same time in recent days, each major corporate news source began talking about a new crime hysteria: a supposed crisis of theft from the railroad industry. But if you look deeper, something very scary is happening.

You’re just all such a bunch of assholes.

If we just collected all the taxes the 1% owes but doesn't pay, we'd have $1.75 trillion over a decade.

The cost to wipe out student debt is $1.7 trillion.

Stop saying we can't afford things and start asking why we refuse to do anything to inconvenience the rich or help people.

Mass shootings are a small price to pay for the freedom to carry out mass shootings.

[Derek 🧢 @SoftServe69]

It won’t be next week when there’s another one...

[Andrew Yang🧢⬆️🇺🇸 @AndrewYang]

The Boulder mass shooting is a horrible tragedy - it is the 7th mass shooting in the past week. Gun violence is a scourge in this country that must be addressed. We have to make it harder to get a gun. I mourn for the victims and their families. When do we say enough is enough?

Still no answer to this question: Who paid off Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s $92,000 country club fees plus his $200,000 credit card debt plus his $1.2 million mortgage, and purchased themselves a SCOTUS seat?

Just imagine if this country scrutinized wasteful Pentagon spending as closely as we scrutinize financial support for the poor.

[Dan Rather @DanRather]

There's an old Texas saying: When the going gets tough, the tough go to Cancun. (No, there actually is no such saying).

Kroger:
*Profit hit $2.9B, up 70%
*$1.2B went to stock buybacks and dividends
*Pays CEO $21.1M, 789x more than median employee
*No worker hazard pay
*Closed Seattle & Long Beach stores when cities mandated $4/hour grocery worker raise
*Had police guard thrown-out food in Portland

[Seth Rogen @Sethrogen]

I think @SenTedCruz is desperately trying to rebrand from the “inspired a deadly insurrection” motherfucker to the “left my constituents to freeze to death so I could go to Cancun” motherfucker, but luckily he can be both. He’s just that big a motherfucker.

[Public Citizen @Public_Citizen]

Jimmy Carter is right. Until Citizens United is overturned, the corporate oligarchy will maintain the power to block the policies favored by the majority of Americans – like raising the minimum wage, reversing climate change and securing Medicare for All. https://t.co/XoNDUG94ea

@SenTedCruz Fuck off you fascist.
