Ossoff: "The price of admission to the president's service seems to be proof that you're willing to lie for him. Have you seen it? Maybe you saw Jay Clayton, the president's nominee to lead our intelligence services, refuse again and again while he was under oath to affirm Donald Trump's defeat in 2020, or Pete Hegseth before the Senate this week refusing to recant his lies about the war. There's something uniquely despicable about lying a nation into war, treating citizens as fools."
@AricToler Imagine losing a military son or daughter and while you’re still mourning their death, you find out they got scratched off the casualty list because the President wanted his Dead People Bar Graph to look better.
Sen. DURBIN: I remember Republicans claiming a chance meeting on the tarmac between Bill Clinton and Loretta Lynch was ‘collusion.’ But they express no concern JD Vance is leading sessions with Todd Blanche and Kash Patel to protect Donald Trump from the Epstein scandal.
Mitch McConnell's team reached out to me earlier today — through an intermediary, of course — asking me to take this down.
I won't. I don't bend the knee.
And if they don't like having their name and face attached to it, maybe they should ask themselves why that is.
🚨BREAKING: Trump’s voter fraud speech is BACKFIRING as Americans flood social media with the recording of Trump demanding Georgia “find 11,780 votes” after he lost the 2020 election.
Trump is the last person on Earth who should be talking about election fraud.
Good morning and Happy Wednesday to everyone who agrees that Maine needs to VOTE OUT Susan Collins, who has been INVISIBLE during the ICE conflict in her state, and partially to blame for voting to give ICE more money for murder.
VOTE. SUSAN. COLLINS. OUT!
THOMAS MASSIE: “It’s ironic that we control the House, Senate, Supreme Court, & the White House -- and we're yelling 'election fraud'? We won all the damn elections.
What are we doing with that? We’re bankrupting the country. We’re starting new wars. We’re violating the Constitution. We’re not cracking down on the fraud. The problem is not the elections. We won the damn elections. The problem is that we’re wasting the opportunity voters gave us."
Update from the reflecting pool! The pool has been drained, and there are no signs of the giant gash that Donald Trump has been lying about. No indications of major vandalism. Just a bad paint job. The only thing that’s been exposed is that Trump has been lying about this.
"To say that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we are to stand by the president, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." - Teddy Roosevelt

The Trump Administration had no problem cutting the budget for kids with developmental disabilities and instead increasing funds for his private plane.
The most corrupt administration in our history.
Hey Republicans: We found that VOTER FRAUD y'all have been obsessing over.
But it wasn't an undocumented immigrant.
It was former Texas AG Ken Paxton.
So, you'll be holding him accountable, right?🙄
🚨 HOLY HELL: Corrupt Clarence Thomas was just caught sneaking out of speaker Mike Johnson’s office.
A Supreme Court justice should not have a private meeting with the speaker of the house.
What were they talking about?
New research from @nytimes finds that the US government is actively doing "critical minerals" deals with FOURTEEN different companies that have financial ties to the Trump and/or Lutnick families - deals worth around $9 billion in all:
