I’ve been thinking a lot about the extraordinary outbursts of the President of the United States against female journalists... well, actually against journalists in general and journalism. But it feels like he saves his most childlike behavior and irrational language for female reporters, calling them all kinds of names that kids in kindergarten are given times out for. It’s stunning to me to witness such behavior from any leader, any CEO, any person of influence or importance. I’ve never witnessed someone like this raging, this weekend with @meetthepress host @kwelkernbc, just last week in the Oval Office with @cnn’s @kaitlancollins, calling women stupid or piggy, telling them to “smile”, calling them darling, demeaning their credibility. Every good man should denounce this behavior. Every person should be able to stand up for their colleagues and say “No more.”

Imagine this man screaming like this at your daughter, your wife, your sister, your mother... would you stand for it? No, you wouldn’t! And neither should any of us. It’s unacceptable and undignified. Period. End of story.

Trump completely lost it on Kristen Welker.

He said she was crooked, stupid and walked out of the interview!

I stand with Kristen Welker and all of the journalists Trump has attacked over the years.

Who is with me? ✋

What do you think Trump is dreaming about? 😂😂

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

The President is not well. He can’t stay awake at important White House events and cabinet meetings.

@WhiteHouse needs to come clean about why trump takes so many trips to the hospital and why doctors keep giving trump cognitive tests.

Rep. Fletcher: The New World screwworm has been found in Texas. This flesh-eating parasite previously eradicated from the U.S. poses a huge threat to our cattle. Last March, the Trump administration fired more than 15,000 USDA employees and eliminated a program to contain the screwworm in Central America. The threat of New World screwworm is just one consequence of the Trump administration's reckless campaign to eliminate funding for government programs that Americans rely on.

Why won’t Governor Abbott send his appointed Education Commissioner to answer why he is withholding $130 million from the students of Dallas ISD?

Because Abbott doesn’t want to be held accountable for cheating our kids.

[James Talarico @jamestalarico]

Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America. 

He embodies the broken system we’re running against.

It’s time to come together: The People vs. Ken Paxton

I’m begging @RepThomasMassie to go on the House floor asap & read all of the names in the #EpsteinFiles - you were a hero for survivors - you believed them & fought for them. Your actions were brave & heroic. Now pls blow the whole thing wide open. Thank you.

[David Riggs @FFDavidRiggs]

Yes !!

[Damaan, AKA 'Philly's Finest!' @Damaan4u33]

Yes or No?

A 4th grader wrote Congresswoman Virginia Foxx about EVs for a school assignment. She sent back propaganda accusations and a lecture on the national debt. I served with Foxx for 10 years. This is what MAGA does to people, and to character.

[Alliance for Justice @AFJustice]

John Marck refused to answer Senator @ChrisCoons's question of whether President Trump is eligible to run for president in 2028.

This isn’t a trick question – it's in the Constitution. If you can’t say a president can’t serve a third term, you shouldn’t be a federal judge. 🚩

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

If we’re Making America Healthy Again, government shouldn't be promoting glyphosate and providing liability immunity for corporations making it.

Thank you to @RepEliCrane for cosponsoring the No Immunity for Glyphosate Act.

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

Thomas Massie at the Supreme Court this morning:

“The White House Chief of Staff worked for a lobbying firm that accepted money from Monsanto/Bayer. And that is wrong.”

This is the same Bayer that spent $9 million lobbying Congress to eliminate liability for Roundup cancer victims.

The same Susie Wiles. The same Pam Bondi.

Massie has been saying this for months.

Nobody in Washington wants to hear it.

[Farm Action @FarmActionUS]

Rep. Thomas Massie just slammed Bayer-Monsanto for waging war on Americans:

“They’re attacking our executive branch.”

“Our legislative branch.”

“And the courts.”

“What do they want?”

“They want get-out-of-court free cards.”

Rep. Massie partnered with Democratic Rep. Chellie Pingree to propose the No Immunity for Glyphosate Act and protect farmers’ right to sue when they’re harmed by pesticides.

But the Supreme Court is also about to decide whether to grant immunity for Monsanto and other pesticide companies:

“Is the Supreme Court today… going to gag state judges?���

“Are they going to disband state juries?”

“Are they going to shutter the state courts where justice should be served?”

“And if they do, are they proposing to hear these cases on their own?”

“No.”

“They’re proposing that nobody gets any justice.”

“This is regulatory capture. It is corrupt.”

@RepThomasMassie

[Farm Action @FarmActionUS]

“You could have… 15 different countries in that one package of hot dogs.”

Farmers say the Big 4 meat packers are blocking country of origin labeling for beef.

“Part of the reason we’ve had these hurdles with country of origin labeling is we’re controlled by the 4 main packers here in the United States.”

“They import a lot of beef and they make a lot of money on imported beef.”

“It’s all about corporate and can they control the industry.”

The idea of “low-tax” red states is a myth. Lower-income and working-class people pay higher taxes in Texas than in California. Middle-class people pay about the same in both states. Rich people pay much lower taxes in Texas.

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

Dear @FLOTUS: Actually, Congress did act. But @DAGToddBlanche is violating the law and refusing to release the Epstein files as required by law. He’s also the guy that said “I love you, sir” to your husband. You may want to talk to Blanche and ask him to act.

[George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 @gtconway3d]

One good use of the supposed two-week ceasefire is to get back to talking about the Epstein files

[Citizens for Ethics @CREWcrew]

Repost if you agree that Rep. Tony Gonzalez should resign immediately. 🔁
