Love sports, especially football and lax, geeky stuff and hanging by the pool.

@ReturnOfThurlow @covie_93 PartyofLincoln is rich as he was the President who fought against you MAGA hicks.

[MP Arizona☀️🏳️‍🌈💙🌵🐕🐕‍🦺🫂💦🏜🐟🌴🎙🌎🌻♍️🌊 @AzPetrich]

Your reminder that this sonofabitch Mitch McConnell, stole not 1 but 2 SCOTUS seats and packed the lower court with right-wing fanatics and refused to persuade Republican Senator's to convict Trump in both impeachment trials. He's responsible for this fucking nightmare.

What will ken paxton do when kids in Texas want to stone him to death for adultery because that's what they learn in the Bible at school???

Clarence Thomas argued the 14th Amendment was written narrowly for former enslaved people and doesn't apply broadly today. Using that same logic, the 2nd Amendment was written for muskets and doesn't apply to AR-15's, but somehow, he's never made that argument.

Under federal law, Epstein Files must be released. Names can be redacted to protect the victim, but not the perpetrator.

Everyone involved in the cover up of Epstein Files related to trump will be investigated. And if the facts warrant, a future Administration will prosecute.

[Scott MacFarlane @MacFarlaneNews]

This is escalating

One day after federal judge ordered Justice Dept to release more Epstein files, by ruling in favor of @KatiePhang legal challenge… Justice Dept Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward officially enters the case

Woodward is high ranking

Every Trump debacle follows the same 13 steps. The reflecting pool fiasco is just one of the lower stakes versions of it.
1. Devise unnecessary spectacle
2. Disregard expertise
3. Bypass normal procedures
4. Declare victory too early (bonus if done by AI-slop post)
5. Spend way more than estimated
6. Ignore the haters
7. Realize it is not going well
8. Bypass normal procedures once again
9. Allege conspiracy and sabotage
10. Redeclare victory
11. More blaming
12. Losing interest
13. Pretend it never happened, and move on to the next thing

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

One way to push back against an authoritarian is to mock him.

trump is so weak and insecure he is now demanding our respect.

So I’m sending him my favorite picture below.

Feel free to retweet and send your favorite picture or video to @realDonaldTrump.

Today, I’m announcing something new to fight back against Donald Trump and his attacks on our democracy. I'm launching Back The Bold to restore accountability in Washington.
The mission is straightforward: to back leaders with the courage to say what needs to be said, do what needs to be done, and hold Donald Trump and his administration accountable. That means supporting Democrats and Independents who refuse to flinch. It's time to be bold.  Join the fight.

[Russ Swan @rsswan2006]

@covie_93 That’s what they do.

[Adam Kinzinger (Slava Ukraini) 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @AdamKinzinger]

The vote itself whatever. But the inability to stand up more than 5 minutes is pathetic @BillCassidy

[Old Man Lefty @OldManLefty1]

The White House looks like shit.. The East Wing has been bulldozed. The lawns looks like they were used for a Demolition Derby. The Kennedy Center is under a tarp. The Reflection Pond is disgusting and fenced off. Trump has turned the Capitol into a shithole.

[Tim Hannan @TimHannan]

MAGA will believe the Reflecting pool was vandalized with no video proof but deny an insurrection happened when it was on live television. These people are cult fanatics.

[John Harwood @JohnJHarwood]

will any Fox anchor urge Trump to stop telling preposterous lies so dumb that a third-grader could spot them?

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

Trump has turned the White House into a 24/7 corruption operation. This is a national crisis.

Trump thinks the public will stop paying attention.

So I went to the Senate floor to call his bluff. I told the ENTIRE STORY of his 500 days of corruption.

[Jamie Bonkiewicz @JamieBonkiewicz]

They never found a single Haitian immigrant eating cats and dogs.
They never identified the two pilots who were supposedly shot down and rescued.
They never produced the evidence that the 2020 election was stolen.
And they’re never going to find the Reflecting Pool slasher.

MAGA is a bunch of fucking idiots who will literally believe anything.

[Emoluments Clause @Emolclause]

#BREAKING: Hayes: “Acting AG Todd Blanche told Congress not to worry about the $1.8 billion slush fund for insurrectionists…The DOJ then told the court the same thing—don’t worry, it’s moot, it’s dropped, and then last week, the judge said okay, fine, put it in writing. She ordered Blanche and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and an associate AG to all sign ‘a declaration under the penalty of perjury, they will not take any action to create or operate the anti-weaponization fund and that the anti-weaponization fund will not proceed in any manner or under any name.’ Well, today was the deadline for that and guess what? They came back to the court and they said no, we’re NOT doing it. We’re NOT filing any declaration to officially kill the fund, which probably means the slush fund is NOT dead.”🙄🤦‍♀️

[Citizens for Ethics @CREWcrew]

Anyone else still outraged that President Trump managed to get immunity from IRS audits for himself, his family and his businesses?

And he did it by suing and settling with his own government.

It's so blatantly corrupt we don't even know where to begin...

[Woke Former Senator @WokeMitt]

I apologize for saying that Tulsi Gabbard is a Russian asset. Apparently she’s just a member of a cult who’s leader is a Russian asset.
