“Mark, we need to do something more, they're literally calling for the vice president to be f---ing hung.”

“You heard it, Pat, he (Trump) thinks Mike deserves it, he doesn't think they're doing anything wrong.”

If y'all are looking for signs of humanity and intelligent life within this hateful American hellscape of MAGA fascism and Christian nationalism, look no further than Knox County resident Lisa Carroll. 🙌🙏🥰😊👇

“RFK Jr. is the poster boy for the new Trump administration, a rich man who never has had to worry about a thing in his life, putting the lives of ordinary Americans in jeopardy because he thinks he knows better than scientists”

[Secretary Pete Buttigieg @SecretaryPete]

Four years ago, we faced unprecedented crises. President Biden understood the magnitude of the challenge and used the tools of government to meet the moment—including an infrastructure package that is transforming our nation. It will be remembered as this century's Big Deal.

The same man who was tied to a deadly measles outbreak in Samoa is slated to become the head of the Department of Health and Human Services. https://t.co/EsUOJT66b0

RFK Jr. says he's gonna have Trump remove fluoride from the US water supply. I asked the dentists serving in Congress—all of whom are Republicans—about it.

The consensus: banning fluoride will rot American kids' teeth https://t.co/dayMDpSGOy

Appointing science denier RFK Jr as the head of Health and Human Services is going to get people killed. His appointment will be a direct threat to our safety.

The US currently has 2% inflation, 4% unemployment, and has seen years of sustained real income growth. Americans are consuming more than ever before in history, eating out more, and taking more vacations.

Our information environment is completely broken.

Ever since the disastrous Citizens United ruling, outside spending on federal elections has skyrocketed.

Big money corrupts our politics and erodes our democracy — creating a vicious cycle that funnels more wealth and power to those at the top.

Are We Just Ignoring How Russia Openly Helped Trump on Election Night? https://t.co/QOsQZPykhb

[Matt McDermott @mattmfm]

Pretty wild that we just went through an election where a top foreign adversary aggressively tried to stop Democrats from voting — including calling in bomb threats to swing state polling locations — and there’s zero media interest in learning what Trump plans to do about that.

"The problem is most people simply do not absorb quality information. Instead, increasing numbers have a media diet that is mostly a bunch of lies, conspiracy theories, and irrelevant diatribes that right-wing propagandists use to deceive people." https://t.co/xNISfugUS4

I wholeheartedly agree with @SenWarren. Now is not the time for despair. President Biden and Senate Democrats must spend every waking hour until January 3rd confirming judges and regulators who will stand up to Trump's lawlessness.

[Peter Morley @morethanmySLE]

🚨PA House STATE Democrats retain EVERY SEAT but Kamala Harris loses & Senator Bob Casey is now trailing David McCormick by .5% isn't SUSPICIOUS w/bomb scares & GOP litigation shenanigans.

I sincerely hope when ALL the votes are hand counted they match the machines PERFECTLY!🧐

Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker is combing through hundreds of pages of Project 2025 — shoring up legal resources and finding ways to further expand reproductive rights and environmental protections.
