A Gaza genocide conducted by Israelis is too ironic to contemplate.

Kevin McCarthy is GOP incompetence made flesh https://t.co/HW26Ohrabl

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

Rep. Pramila Jayapal just emerged from a Democratic caucus meeting with Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, saying they will NOT save Kevin McCarthy, and praising Rep. Jeffries by saying "He is the person who should be Speaker of the House."

Who else agrees?🤚

No Labels isn’t allowing primaries because they only want the candidates their billionaire and corporate donors paid for, and they don’t want those donors disclosed.

No Labels isn’t a “centrist” political party. It’s a billionaire grift.

For those journalists and others grappling with references to this platform with phrases like “X, formerly Twitter”, may I suggest a hybrid not unlike those applied to Hollywood couples. How about “TwitteX”, pronounced “twittex”?

Every Democratic Senator who demanded Al Franken’s resignation must demand Senator Menendez resignation today so NJ Democratic governor can appoint his replacement.

Who will be first?

Senator Gillibrand started the stampede against Senator Franken.

What’s she waiting for?

[Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES]

Senator Menendez is a crook, but much worse. He’s the chair of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and he was on the Egyptian payroll. Holy Saudi Arabia and Jared Kushner!! NJ’s Democratic Senator must RESIGN IMMEDIATELY or be EXPELLED. Inaction by Schumer is a gift to Trump.

[Ron Filipkowski @RonFilipkowski]

We aren’t going to have rallies, protests and GoFundMe legal defense fund pages for Bob Menendez. We aren’t going to sell ‘Free Bob’ hats and shirts. We aren’t going to make rap videos for him. We aren’t going to try and defund the prosecutor.

Because we aren’t Republicans.

BREAKING: Matt Gaetz says if Democrats pass the Voting Rights bill, Republicans “will never win another election ever again.”

Raise your hand if that sounds great! ✋😂
