Graham Platner was accused of sexual assault and nearly every Democrat I know demanded he end his candidacy.
Donald Trump has to pay $5 million to a woman he was found LIABLE of sexually abusing, and not a single Republican is calling for him to end his presidency.
Not one.
The following 3 House Republicans are currently being accused of assault or sexual harassment:
Cory Mills
Chuck Edwards
Max Miller
Are you going to call for their resignations, @GOP?
Governor Ron DeSantis passed the Stop WOKE Act that made it illegal for college professors to teach ideas he didn't like. A federal court just overturned it.
MAJOR BREAKING: Federal Judge Kaplan just signed an order forcing the Clerk of Court to release the $5 million judgment against Trump, plus accrued interest!
The Rapist LOST!
"The government doesn't get to sit in the editor's chair." ABC just filed a blistering 35-page defense of The View against Brendan Carr's FCC.
And 77,000+ Americans flooded the agency with comments backing them up. https://t.co/oNwHKOgf6O
Nichols: It’s almost like we have a relative in the room, and there’s something deeply wrong with him. And we’ve all agreed not to talk about it. But there is something deeply wrong with him.
His friends know it, his critics know it. His staff, I’m sure, knows it. The world knows it. World leaders know it. And most importantly, our enemies know it, which is why they don’t take him seriously.
Nobody hangs on his words. They kind of do, but mostly out of freakish curiosity to see what kind of wild thing he’s going to say next, not because his words have any inherent meaning or reflect policy.
You know, I spent years teaching students that when the president speaks, it’s policy, and you must pay attention when the president speaks because nobody can contradict him.
Now, you know, are we really cutting off all trade with Spain? Who knows? Maybe. Maybe not. It might have just been a stray electron, you know, careening around inside his brainpan. Who knows?
But this is really dangerous because in the middle of all this stuff—and we can laugh about, you know, the Islamic Republic of Japan and all of that—but he made several statements about an ongoing war that the United States is losing. And no one’s even trying to pretend that they can make any sense of it.
And I’ll just add one last thing that you just brought up.
If this were any other president, this would be a national crisis. I mean, Joe Biden got somebody’s name wrong, and it was headlines. The president gets all kinds of things wrong, completely, you know, is out to lunch at an important NATO summit, and, you know, it’s Wednesday.
Nellis: If Scott Jennings and Thune and everybody else can have a 20 minute phone call with Mitch McConnell, he should be able to shoot a 60 sec proof of life video to show us that he's okay. I think they know the deadline for a special election is August 3rd. If he's not able to do his job, he should resign right now. They should have a special election
Hey, as they keep good old Mitch McConnell in a vegetative state, remember you're paying his health coverage.
They're keeping him in a vegetative state so they won't have a special election because they know they'll lose - and your tax dollars are paying for it.
.@KenPaxtonTX appears to have used an address where he didn't live while voting in 6 elections in the past 2 years, violating election laws...
...maybe someone should look into potential mortgage fraud, since GOP is happy targeting Trump's foes on that.

Let’s clear this up a little bit. Yes, Toyota is moving some Tacoma production to Texas.
Temporarily.
They are moving it from their Baja, California plant over to Texas while they continue upgrades to their newer plant in Guanajuato, Mexico.
This is not permanent. It’s literally just a layover. While some Tacoma production will stay it Texas, it’ll move back to mostly Mexico when upgrades are finished.
The approximately 2,000 jobs this will bring is not even a dent in the 400,000 we’ve lost since Trump was elected.

More corruption in plain sight.
The government committed $1.6 billion to a company called USA Rare Earth. The private fundraising tied to that deal was led by Cantor Fitzgerald, the firm Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick ran for 30 years before handing it to his sons.
His family’s firm was in the financing, and he will not answer a single question about it.
This is the third major critical-minerals deal to follow the same pattern, and two of them run straight through the president’s own family.
Don Jr.’s fund took a stake in Vulcan Elements before the company landed a $620 million Pentagon loan that sent its valuation soaring. Don Jr. and Eric Trump grabbed a 20% stake in a Kazakhstan tungsten project just before it was announced.
The New York Times recently identified at least 14 companies with financial ties to the Trump family or Cantor Fitzgerald that were pursuing critical-minerals projects involving the federal government.
Meanwhile, Republicans in Congress refuse to lift a finger.
They have oversight power and they are choosing not to use it, because the trail leads to their own president. They are part of a cover-up by inaction.
Every one of these deals demands scrutiny, under oath, with the documents on the table. The American people funded all of it, and they have an absolute right to know whether their government was working for them or quietly enriching Trump, Lutnick, and their families.

2:00 PM: 🇺🇸 U.S. judge ordered the DOJ to unredact Jeffrey Epstein files which name alleged co-conspirators.
5:00 PM: 🇺🇸 Trump REJECTED Court order to hand over redacted Epstein files.
8:00 PM: 🇺🇸 Trump began bombing Iran. The war restarted.
You connect the dots.
BREAKING: Trump FALLS ASLEEP ON LIVE TV in the middle of a press conference with Türkiye’s president Erdogan at the NATO summit!
He is NOT okay…
It appears Mitch McConnell isn’t the only major Republican fighting for consciousness right now, as the President of the United States has fallen asleep in the middle of a press conference.
Yes, Donnie, we know, it’s hard to stay awake when someone else who isn’t you is talking, and you must be quite jet-lagged, but you are the PRESIDENT.
If you can’t handle the stresses of the job and represent America with dignity and grace on the world stage, then you have no business being in office. Full stop.
Of course, he never had any business being in office whatsoever, being a demented sex criminal, fraudster, scammer, abuser, and all-around ignoramus.
This is beyond unacceptable behavior from Trump. Just a complete and utter disgrace, every hour of every day.
25th Amendment now!
#BREAKING: Liz Oyer: “…the way it’s supposed to work is people submit an application to the Justice Department. The Office of the Pardon Attorney, which is historically a nonpartisan, nonpolitical office, vets the applications consistent with a longstanding set of criteria. When I was leading it, we conducted a rigorous investigation of the applicants to determine whether they had truly demonstrated that they were deserving based on merit, including rehabilitation and good conduct in the community over a lengthy period of time. We would then make recommendations that went up to the president for the president’s ultimate decision…All of that has now gone out the window, and Donald Trump has essentially turned this into something akin to The Hunger Games. He’s created a situation where people are ponying up huge amounts of money, leveraging political connections, hiring well-connected lobbyists, and people in Trump’s inner circle are making exorbitant sums of money by promising the possibility of pardons. It is really just quite fundamentally corrupt as well as dangerous.”🤦♀️
Let's look at Todd Blanche's record at the DOJ:
- He helped oversee the botched release of the Epstein files
- Has continued to withhold unredacted records
- Now his DOJ is trying to block the release of his Epstein-related communications
That's not someone who should be leading the Department of Justice.
Republicans went completely batshit when Lloyd Austin took three days to notify the White House about his emergency hospitalization - but when it’s been over three weeks and Mitch McConnell’s condition is still a mystery - not a fucking word.
