RADDATZ: You talk about what can be done. After shootings in Buffalo & Uvalde, Congress passed a bipartisan Safer Communities Act. It provided hundreds of millions for schools to expand mental health services. You didn't vote for it. Why? TOM EMMER: I don't remember the reasons I didn't vote for it
And James Talarico in Texas and the nation
I think if we are looking get some headway we kind of need to just support all the dems
Yep. At. All.
One of his companies is the technology behind the creation of the database of immigrantsā personal information. And the new acting director of the CDC is a close associate (who, btw, has no medical anything) These facts alone (thereās plenty more out there), suggest that he is, in fact, the enemy
Thiel is behind everything. Thiel is the only person Vance has ever worked for. Thiel funded his Ohio Senate campaign and is the reason JD is VP now. His ideology leans Christian Nationalist and all that that entails.
From claiming FEMA wasnāt giving money to hurricane victims to meeting with Netanyahu when he was just citizen trumpā He MADE himself part of the story well before the debates, before the attack ads, even before he announced JDā he just inserted himself. Dems need to bring that same energy now!
Are you in Ohio? He recently announced heās running again. But I think your point is well taken. He should be heard by now. One thing that trump was a master of was inserting himself into politics when he should not haveā¦
He encouraged Dems to be more inclusive. To stop distancing themselves from the āfar leftā like AOC and Bernie and even Mamdani in NYC. Dem leadership needs to present a united front and welcome any one and everyone who is on the side of a return to democratic (little d) values.
He underscored this by noting Liz Cheneyās embrace of Dems and presenting a United front with us. He encouraged leaders to stop describing AOC, Bernie, etc as too left. Let all the voices who are seeking a return to democracy be heard. Stop trying to play by old rules. Be inclusive or be excluded
I believe his point was to do all the things, to be United, to be vocal and to be unafraid. For example, he noted the lack of endorsements from dem leadership for Mamdani? Why??? Because he describes himself as a socialist? The people are speaking, he has momentumā¦
I donāt think youāre wrong and clearly youāre deeply invested as I am but I would say the average American isnāt. I think that most people who are just living their lives are simply unaware of the examples you provided and are not seeing a concerted effort from the Dems.
A special thank-you to Ali Velshi for his passionate rant this morning: āWhereās the party?ā Dem leadership has to stop writing letters and making statements and get off their asses to actually fight for our country. If not, they should be replaced
Such a surprise
Gavin Newsom is not imitating Trump. He is mocking him. He is holding up a mirror to what Trump does and how blind his supporters are to reality. From the 3 hour North Korean style cabinet meetings to all caps nonsense tweets. Itās all worthy of mockery.

What are we even doing?
You watch as a child sobs for his motherāwhile masked agents of the state prepare to drag her away. ICE: āI donāt have any choiceā¦ [weāre just following orders].ā The cowardās refrain. The excuse of weak, spineless menāechoed by every tool of tyranny throughout history.
Just another reason to keep giving Netflix my money.
Frey: And don't just say, this is about thoughts and prayers right now. These kids were literally praying. It was the first week of school. They were in a church.

Dear elected people: What the fuck is he doing, and why are you letting it happen?
Wondering if itās the most watched by people who are still sitting on their couches watching tv. I donāt know anyone who does this anymore except my 90 year old MAGA father-in-law. Who, btw, no one in the family talks to anymore bc heās so hate-filled.
But, We are the power. Thatās why they try to shit all over it.
Still waiting for someone of prominence to admit it was not about eggs.
In the same way trumps BBB has apportioned significant costs from the wealthy to the poor and middle class taxpayers and rural hospitals. How bout we just flip that. And fixing healthcare is really about ensuring preventative health services are easily accessible and readily available for all.
The greatest con there ever was was getting poor people to believe that protecting billionairesā money was more important than protecting their own
Humanity A system that rips fathers from their families in immigration court is not justice; itās cruelty. People can only take so much before heartbreak turns into resistance.
I wonder how the ice agents are doing it. I mean I know theyāre trumpers/ J6ers but how do they sleep at night- without a sense of humanity
Itās my opinion that humanitarian and musical genius Dolly Parton (as well as Chef JosĆ© AndrĆ©s) deserves the Nobel Peace Prize. tucson.com/life-enterta...

Yes. Heās a trumper, sadly. Many of his posts have been pro trump policies. I liked him better when he was on Twitter and I didnāt have to read his BS

My name is Captain Dylan Blaha, and this message is for members of the National Guard across the USA. I've served in the Illinois Army National Guard for over 12 years, including a deployment to Afghanistan and three years on active duty in Europe. What's going on right now is not normal.
This isnāt education, itās indoctrination. The Trump administration gutted PBS and NPR not to save money, but to control the narrative. In their place, PragerU is moving into more classrooms. Already in Florida, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Idaho schools.
You may recall the president launched a memecoin, $TRUMP, upon inauguration (despite saying he was not āa big fanā of crypto in his first term). Then in April he offered the top 220 investors a private dinner with him. Since then, the Trump coinās value has sunk 88%. trib.al/o46Kau6

Awesome!! I mean if Bill Barr said it and Charlie Kirk repeated it then it Must be true! I totally believe this and canāt wait for the files to be released so we can finally put an end to this.

Well done šš
To me it sounds just like her. Lots of flowery words that mean absolutely nothing. I mean she's basically telling Putin, "I don't really care... but do you?" If this is Chat GPt'd I can't imagine what the letter looked like before she copied and pasted it.

Oh gawd š. The only thing consistently true about Taco Trump: Anyone who offers him āflattery and favorā he will bend towards. Heās plainly and painfully transactional. We are so cooked with Putin
NEWS: Trumpās DOJ caves, agrees to dramatically scale back its attempted takeover of the DC police after Judge Reyes signaled it violated the Home Rule Act. DC Police Chief Pamela Smith will remain in charge.
More from Newsomās press office.
Before 2020 the Lincoln Project had all these facts on how to move the needleā¦ one point they made is that when something happens, whoever gets their story out first within 6-12 hours (it wasnāt this but it was def a short amt of time) controls the narrative and dominates the story. So letās gooo!
And always respectful. Heās the Antitrump.
Or even won a golf tournament
absolutely savage
FFS! HE PARDONED THUGS WHO BEAT DC COPS UNTIL THEY WERE NEAR DEAD AND SPRAYED OTHERS WITH BEAR MACE! He doesn't give a shit about cops or law & order in DC This is a dress rehearsal for 2026 when he seizes the Capitol and makes it his Reichstag! Threats ā¢ Intimidation ā¢ Insurrection
Oh, the lack of humanity š
Wonder how Luigi is Doing.......
Doesnāt deploy federal troops to stop a Capitol invasion or save children from a Texas flood or clean up debris from a StL tornado. Deployed federal troops to disperse people in sleeping bags. Got it.
Still true.
As if by doing that heāll stop and theyāll be able to go along their merry way. But it doesnāt work like that. Any parent of a toddler in the throes of their Terrible Twos knows this- you canāt negotiate with terrorists. They will simply continue to terrorize you
Imagine the impact it would have had if Bezos had actually published the tariff amounts for each purchase made on Amazon. Imagine the pressure that would have put on trump. There would be no lying his way out of it. It would be there in black and white for all the world and all the MAGAs to see
Pod Save America just did a thing on the shortsightedness of the capitulation of the powerful. Tim āAppleāās presentation of a gold bar to Trump.. Harvard and its decabillion dollar endowmentā¦ These are all big guys who can stand up for the little guys. But, no.
Every *single* time I watch Mamdani, it leaves me smiling and feeling all the feels. I donāt know if I agree with every one of his positions but I definitely agree with the vibes heās giving šŗšøšŗšø

In light of the tragic events that happened at Fort Stewart recently, I always find it interesting that firearms are generally prohibited on basesā¦ yet here in Ohio we can sling a shotgun over our shoulder, walk in to McDonaldās and order an egg McMuffin like we are getting ready for battle
Give them no peace!
Today is the day that Trump was supposed to impose tough new sanctions on Russia if they didnāt agree to a cease fire.
There it isšAlex deGrasse tells Steve Bannon how Trump and MAGA Republicans plan to steal the 2026 midterms. Itās a three pronged approach: 1. Rig-Districting 2. A new census brought on by executive order and 3. SCOTUS overturns the Voting Rights Act. Now you know the plan! Fight accordingly ā¼ļø
Noticing a pattern here.
Indeed. And it was ignited when he refused to allow Obama to fill Scalia's seat. A full like 10 months (I think) before the election.. . . And here we are.
So did McCarthy and McConnell.
Did he use Putin's interpreter again and just go on vibes
I think trump is hoping for a ministry of truth type of "preserving" history. Pretty soon we'll all be talking in "newspeak"
When crazy stuff like that this happens my husband just says: "Go ahead and do it" Just friggin do it so that we can stop pretending we are heading into a dictatorship and start acting like we are in one. Because we are.
Yes it is. We're on like page 813.

The President of the United States went on CNBC today and said: He won the 2020 election (he didnāt). He has a 71% approval rating (he doesnāt). The jobs numbers were rigged (they werenāt). I could say something funny here, but I wonāt. Itās just so damn dangerous to have him in the White House.

Needless to say I did not get that Trump discount. So, yeah. Never.
I went to make a Dr appt soon after inauguration. After, the service rep gave me an estimate of how much the procedure would cost. It was, of course, higher than expected The service reps response āDonāt worry. Trumps gonna bring that down. Heās gonna stop the ārapingā of Americaā š³
Once, when my son was little, he told us the time was 8069. My husband and I use that number to this day when we're talking about crazy numbers like the cost of eggs or the number of dishes in the sink. At the time my son was like 3. Trump is literally giving the same vibes. As a 3 year old.
He straight up, deliberately lies about demonstrable facts (the jobs revision happened before not after the election and Trump called it out at the time!) and no reporter challenges him on it. No Sunday show host challenged his officials about his lies. He gets away with it.
Same. I thought it was bc my phone is really old and out of storage š„“
