What a shame that the Republican Congress is the least productive Congress in history! And that’s why we don’t have border or immigration legislation. Or anything else.
Republicans can’t govern!

Olfactory News: It’s been almost a week, and #TrumpSmellls continues to linger on Twitter/X.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

Wages are up and inflation is down.

More than 14 million jobs have been created by the Biden economy.

And we’re just getting started.

NEW: looks like George Conway, and former Trump lawyer Ty Cobb - among others - have filed an Amicus Brief in support of the DoJ in the trump immunity case.

[Jo @JoJoFromJerz]

Jerry Sandusky can’t coach football anymore, Harvey Weinstein can’t produce movies anymore, and Donald Trump shouldn’t be eligible for the presidency anymore.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

The richest 1% accumulated nearly twice as much wealth as the rest of the world put together over the past two years. It's not radical to tax the rich. It's radical to allow this level of extreme wealth concentration to continue.

[Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein]

There’s literally footage of Derek Chauvin committing the crime, and a jury of his peers unanimously found him guilty of the crime. He even appealed the verdict to the Supreme Court and they rejected the appeal. Why is it that we try to put criminals on pedestals and pretend that they’re not criminals so often? It just baffles me.

[Steve Martin @UnrealBluegrass]

If the 14th Amendment does not apply to disqualifying Trump from seeking the presidency of the country then the logical conclusion is that the most powerful person in American government can direct any effort, multiple efforts even, to overthrow the elected president with no ramifications under that part of the constitution.
All done while in the White House.
Seems illogical.

[David Corn @DavidCornDC]

In Trump World, Trump cannot lose an election. It’s a rule. Any loss must be a result of the other side cheating. This is a dangerous un-reality that threatens American democracy and illuminates the irrationality and cultishness of the GOP base.

[Steve Martin @UnrealBluegrass]

I'm in favor of education and books.
They teach us about things like:
Slavery in America
The words in the US Constitution
World War II , nazis and dictatorship...
The Holocaust
The environment
Freedom
Compassion
Human rights and dignity
Music
Cultures beyond our own
Poetry
Novels
Philosophy
Art
Much more but apparently we still to learn

Presidential immunity isn’t going to save him.

If you’re out there threatening to harm judges and anyone who dares to hold him accountable for his actions, your days are numbered too.

America is done with your extremist crap.

[Just saying @kangaroos991]

True!

[USED TO BE G.O.P. @Used_To_Be_GOP]

I’m a Conservative:
1) Slavery was the main cause of the Civil War.
2) January 6 was an insurrection lead by Donald Trump.
3) Trump gave a wink/nod approval for his VP to be hung for not breaking the law for him.
4) Grown, functioning adult men don’t speak or behave the way Donald Trump does…how freaking hard is that people?

[Just Jack @7Veritas4]

@QPsyOps The plaintiffs in Colorado are Republicans.

They filed for his disqualification on Constitutional grounds.

IF you are truly a veteran…

IF you truly took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution…

Then defend all of it.

Not just the parts you like.

Jessica: We have got GDP growth up to 4.9%. Consumer confidence went up 14%, largest jump in a decade. Inflation is running at an annualized rate below Powell’s target. Personal income is up. Grocery and energy prices down last month.

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

TWEEPS! trump is FURIOUS that the hashtag #TrumpSmellsBad is now trending at number 7 on Twitter!

If you folks keep replying and RTing #TrumpSmellsBad, it will probably jump all the way up to Number ONE.

Think of all the ketchup bottles broken because #TrumpSmellsBad!😆😆😆

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

Democrats believe in freedom.

Extreme Republicans are now criminalizing women who have a miscarriage.

The two parties are not the same.

[Debbie Mischo @dmischo]

@NBCBLK There is so much to unpack here. The hospital likely violated HIPAA by contacting police about her condition. Shame on the police for thinking this should be investigated, and shame on the judge for their comments. This woman suffered a huge loss & should be given care & support.
