Quick point of order: can we agree to stop using the r slur when criticizing the Trump/Musk administration? It minimizes people with developmental disabilities and being cruel to the undeserving is really MAGA's jam.

@AdamKinzinger He sleeps more soundly in public meetings than most of us do at night with him as President.

@SenBillCassidy You can thank yourself for enabling RFL. Jr. to create those terrible outcomes.

Still you can't bring yourself to work for his removal.

The fact that virulent antivaxers now resent you does not rehabilitate your image.

[Dr. Jonathan N. Stea @jonathanstea]

@SenBillCassidy Have you taken responsibility for this yet and publicly apologized for worsening health outcomes?

[Jonathan Reiner @JReinerMD]

If only there was a Senator who could have prevented RFK Jr from becoming HHS Sec.

America has NEVER been less safe.

A Fox News host runs the DOD
A plumber runs DHS
A landscaper runs Domestic Terrorism
A Trump lawyer runs the DOJ
A Maga influencer runs the FBI

And now a trust fund brat with ZERO Intel experience runs the DNI 🤬

NEWS from House NDAA markup: Armed Services voted to require the Pentagon to tell Congress why senior military leaders are dismissed or fired within five days.

Comes amid bipartisan dissatisfaction with Hegseth's firings of top officers.

America is racist. Two white men chased and shot at a Black delivery driver. But, the judge dropped the charges. This is the same way southern judges refused to prosecute lynchmobs

[Richard Blumenthal @SenBlumenthal]

Corrupt & compromised by feckless Trump fealty, Blanche is a nonstarter as AG. He leads DOJ with blindered loyalty & contempt for law. There’s no way we should confirm an AG who will continue as Trump’s personal lawyer, not the people’s. https://t.co/SFRl1PzHJw

Today, we remember the Ukrainian children whose lives have been cut short by Russia’s war.

At least 707 children have been killed, thousands more injured, and over 20,000 illegally deported or forcibly transferred by Russia.

Those responsible for deportations, forced assimilation, and other crimes against Ukrainian children must face justice.

Every Ukrainian child should be home, safe with their family, and able to look toward a peaceful future. We must do everything in our power to make that happen.

@atrupar When the chairman of the Intelligence Committee says Bill Pulte’s main qualification is ‘not orchestrating a coup,’ he’s telling you the bar has collapsed. That’s not a defense; it’s an admission that they can’t point to experience, expertise, or any relevant background.

Rep. Crow: "I heard Marco Rubio yesterday saying, 'this isn't a war.' It just reminded me of my time in Iraq…Patrolling the streets of Baghdad in 120 degree heat, taking sniper fire, having roadside bombs blow up and people back in Washington saying, 'this isn't a war.' Well, it sure felt like a war to me. And I can tell you, it sure feels like a war to the 50,000+ U.S. Service members that have to deal with air raids and drone strikes."

If you read this carefully, the irony is that one of the reasons it takes so long to count votes in Cali is about they use a much more rigorous process to validate votes than they do in other states.

[Everything Price Sufferer (but especially eggs) @agraybee]

From 1966 to 2025 we dropped sterile flies over South America that ate screwworm and thus prevented them from spreading, but the le epic efficient cracked coders at DOGE thought this was a silly waste of the ~0 dollars it cost us.

Don't let the propagandists hide their lies when they're revealed.

Update: @TriciaOhio has now quietly deleted this post, even though she issued it in her role as @DHSGov comms chief at the time.

ICE and Border Patrol are sitting on $100 BILLION and Republicans still want to give them $70 BILLION more.

They’re more interested in funding Trump’s private police force than focusing on anything Americans really need.

[Brian Hohlen @BrianHohlen]

@ReichlinMelnick Once again Grifter McLaughlin lied through her teeth. Cosplay Kristi rewarded her for her lying with a no-bid contract awarded to her husband to shoot propaganda videos.
