Can we please make it very clear that this vote to end Trump's illegal war on Iran failed because FETTERMAN, a fake Democrat who constantly does Trump's bidding, voted against it?
This failed 49-50 with all actual Dems plus three Republicans in favor.

My job is made easier when trump officials say ridiculous things in the face of incontrovertible facts.
But @SecRubio didn’t just lie to Congress. He disrespected the American people. He thinks we are stupid and will ignore what we see with our own eyes.
November is coming.
Dave Matthews: “I will never stop calling for an end to the violence in Gaza and the West Bank and Lebanon and for that matter the Congo and Sudan and Ukraine or the horrific violence against immigrants and their neighbors in our country”
Maine voter asked about Platner: "Probing into the minutiae of his personal relationships when you don't do that for any other candidate is ridiculous."
Dear @DAGToddBlanche: You don’t get to decide to “move on” from the Epstein Files or from following the congressional law. That decision can only be made by the American people and Congress.
You will be disbarred. The files will eventually be released.
November is coming.
This is the type of crisis that a Democratic president would be held personally responsible for by the media. Instead it’s getting virtually no national attention despite the issue being directly connected to federal cuts enacted by the Trump administration
This is really stupid, and it’s not getting enough attention.
The Trump administration is pulling a working $368 million ocean monitoring system out of the water, equipment taxpayers already bought, built, and sank into the deep ocean.
And they are doing it right when the oceans are behaving in ways that alarm the scientists who study them.
Record-breaking temperatures.
A system of Atlantic currents that may be lurching toward collapse.
The response?
Yank out the instruments and walk away.
That is not budgeting. That is smashing the gauges while the engine is on fire and calling it efficiency.
For what? The Trump administration dressed it up as a “nimbler approach” and “smart lifecycle management,” which is fancy nonsense for “we shut it off and hoped nobody would ask why.” There is no return-on-investment analysis. They cannot show taxpayers save a dime, because the gear is already paid for and the science it produces protects real money and real lives.
The kicker: the same people killing the monitors want to mine the deep sea for minerals. So they are destroying the only tools that could measure what that mining does. That is not an accident.
That is the point. You cannot see the damage if you break the instruments first.

#BREAKING: Hayes: “…if Susan Collins is re-elected, remember this, she will continue to rubber stamp the Trump agenda and all that means, and mark my words, there will be MORE chances for her to install right wing justices in the court to help cement conservative control of that institution for another generation. Sam Alito is 76 years old. He’s all but confirmed he’s retiring soon. Clarence Thomas is 77. He’s already threatened to quit at least once. If Republicans hold the Senate, it seems essentially assured that BOTH men will announce their retirement. Donald Trump will replace them with ideological zealots four decades their junior, and Susan Collins will hem and haw about how CONCERNED she is and then she’ll vote to confirm then anyway, as she did with Brett Kavanaugh. So that is what the stakes are in the [Maine] Senate race.”😳
Dear @WhiteHouse: The inability of trump to stay awake on the job has made him a laughing stock and an embarrassment to the United States of America.
But I really did this tweet to show you that @GovPressOffice has much better social media content than you do.
Cheers!
This week, my amendment to ban billionaire-funded super PACs received unanimous support from my Democratic colleagues.
The momentum is growing. It’s time to repeal Citizens United, ban super PACs and move to the public funding of elections NOW.
Trump’s name appears over 38,000 times in over 5,800 documents in the Epstein files.
If you printed out those 5,800+ documents on 8.5” x 11” paper and placed them end to end, the Trump Epstein files documents would go from one end of the reflecting pool to the other, then back to the start, and then 2/3 of the way back again.
On this 82nd anniversary of D-Day, remember: The way we wonder why Germans didn’t stop Hitler is exactly how the rest of the world views Americans and Trump today.
There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man."
A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life.
Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.
FBI records obtained through a Judicial Watch lawsuit reveal that a Butler County Sheriff’s deputy exchanged two emails with Trump shooter Thomas Crooks before the July 13, 2024 assassination attempt. The records remain heavily redacted, concealing the nature of the communications. The documents also reveal a SWAT officer recovered a cell phone and a remote device with an antenna from Crooks after he was killed.
Netanyahu knows Americans are sick of funding Israel’s wars. So now he’s working with Congress to hide military aid inside Pentagon co-production deals.
That means MORE U.S. tax dollars for Israel, with even LESS oversight.
Not gonna happen!
LIE. I was there. They were walking through the building, destroying property, spreading feces on the walls, stealing things, rioting and threatening to kill the Vice President. But other than that . . .
Rep. Angie Craig: "Do you know how much money farmers lost last year?"
Brooke Rollins: *doesn't answer*
Craig: "It was $28 billion. You're the Secretary of Agriculture."
This is an actual page on the White House web site. It reads like something written about a third world dictator. So embarrassing. I have not seen any branch of the federal government sink this low in my lifetime.
I asked Senate Republicans who among them thought Trump’s slush fund was a good idea. None replied and silence filled the chamber.
I then offered Republicans a chance to shut it down by voting for my amendment.
They chose not to. They are simply too scared of crossing this corrupt president.
