The War in #Iran betrays every promise this President made to the American people. He said no more wars. He said no more Middle East wars. He said this would be done in days. He said he had a deal to end the war. Now he wants tens-of-billions to fund the on again off again war.
Let's be real here, "Republicans" who cosplay as #MAGA like #LindsayGraham did are why people like me left the GOP. It shouldn't take losing your primary (Bill Cassidy, Thom Tillis) to start speaking/voting your conscience.
Hey @grahamformaine.bsky.social ... it's time for you to go to the Ocean of Obscurity where you belong ... seriously bro, read the room, no one wants you here so just go and don't drag it out until Monday.
So let me get this straight, Michigan decided to leave the NCPG because @kalshiofficial.bsky.social joined. But when you actually look at the state's consumer protection report card, they absolutely suck. Maybe focus first on protecting consumers before playing politics. Make it make sense!
I gotta hand it to Republicans, their complete fealty to Donald Trump has resulted in them torpedoing vote-by-mail, which will actually hurt their own base’s ability to vote!
Social Security Administrator Frank Bisignano Just Made #THELIST ... Congressional Democrats, you know what to do... thewatchdogreport.substack.com/p/social-sec...
The Latino vote is abandoning Donald Trump because he lied. He lied about ending wars. He lied about lowering the cost of living. He lied about affordability. He lied & it’ll cost his party the Majority.
Dolling out money with no safeguards is the pathway to corruption. By Republicans on the Oversight Committee own “standards” set during the Obama years, Trump’s “1776 Fund” is the MOST corrupt thing we have ever seen from an American President.
This morning on Morning Joe, I called on Democrats to form a Special Select Committee to investigate the entirety of the Trump family corruption & grift if they take back the majority.
Paxton has to answer questions about why he let a guy who sexually abused a minor get just 60 days. These are the kinds of questions Cornyn was never going to have to navigate. Republicans are gonna have to spend big $$$ to stave off @jamestalarico.bsky.social #TXSEN
Rep. Robert Garcia, the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, at #CAPIdeas: “This is the most corrupt President and the most corrupt Administration in the history of our country.” @americanprogress.bsky.social
House Dem Leader Hakeem Jeffries commits to “massive Supreme Court reform” if #Democrats retake the House in the midterms #CAPIdeas #SCOTUS @americanprogress.bsky.social
The Democratic agenda: “cost, care, and corruption.” @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @johnpodesta.bsky.social #CAPIdeas @americanprogress.bsky.social
NJ Gov Sherrill at #CAPIdeas: “we cannot be the party of strongly worded letters…” 💯 right! Actions, not words. This is the way Democrats. @americanprogress.bsky.social
@repcasar.bsky.social , Chair of the Progressive Caucus, wants the next Dem President to be “aggressive” … could not agree more! #CAPIdeas @americanprogress.bsky.social
Powerful personal story about the housing - ownership - affordability crisis in America from @maxwellfrost.bsky.social who was homeless and in debt while running for Congress. This is how #Democrats need to talk about these issues - in a personal - relatable way. @americanprogress.bsky.social
Ruben Gallego drops some truth about #Trump #IranWar #CAPIdeas conference @americanprogress.bsky.social
2 Things Democrats in a Majority need to do to hold Trump & his family accountable: 1.) form a Select Committee to investigate Trump Family $$$ + government deals 2.) Expand enforcement tools + deploy inherent contempt to enforce subpoenas @weeknightmsnow.bsky.social
Every Republican should be looking for an off-ramp from Donald Trump because if they aren’t, they better be ready to update their resumes come November! @theweekendmsnow.bsky.social
I can tell you as someone who lives in Dallas, TX, something different is happening here on the ground. I'm seeing @jamestalarico.bsky.social signs in neighborhoods where you don't usually see people putting out signs supporting Democrats. @teamtalaricohq.bsky.social @theweekendmsnow.bsky.social
So grateful to have had the opportunity to sit at this table @weeknightmsnow.bsky.social with @symonedsanders.bsky.social @michaelsteele.bsky.social and @aliciamenendez.bsky.social
You promote what you permit. Trump’s family is profiting from his presidency so everyone underneath them thinks they can to. Dems in power - you have to give Oversight Committee a much bigger budget/staff to root out this rot. Call it Oversight LLC!
Democrats in Congress need to investigate every single taxpayer dollar & government contract that has been handed out to Trump-family-backed companies like the $24 million Pentagon contract just thinner to one of Eric Trump’s companies.
Donald Trump’s problem is he is being held to the expectations he set for himself. If you believed in “America First” you aren’t buying what Trump is selling. Iran, Middle East, Greenland, Venezuela, tariffs = higher gas, grocery & energy prices.
If you’ve been silent about Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer & her husband, if you’ve been silent about Rep. Tony Gonzales, I really don’t give two sh*ts what you think about Eric Swalwell. For the record, neither of these people should be in public office. Period. R or D. It doesn’t matter.
