Attempting to shame the GOP for hypocrisy is one of the biggest wastes of time there is. They don’t care and never will. They do what’s best for them in the moment, moment to moment. There is no connection to the past or future. It’s all transactional. That’s how sociopaths work
A guy named Rafael having to go by Ted, a woman named Nimrata having to go by Nikki, and a guy named Piyush having to go by Bobby tells you quite a lot about the Republican party and it’s voters
So, just to be clear, Mitch McConnell, Rand Paul, Marsha Blackburn, Tom Cotton, and Josh Hawley, all notorious bashers of the federal government, will now be the first ones with their hands out today. It only compounds the tragedy.
This is my friend and neighbor Taylor. He is one of the original members of ANTIFA. Taylor fought in the Battle Of The Bulge. He’s 95 years old and wanted me to tell you that he didn’t fight the Nazis just to have you idiots not wear a mask.
Question for fellow white folks out there. When was the last time you spoke on the phone to a black person? How far back in your texts do you have to scroll to find one?
@RexChapman
The Department of Defense absolutely needs to outlaw Fox News from being played in all common areas of military installations and insurance companies should pull coverage of any doctor who plays it in their waiting rooms.
Not to beat a dead horse with
@sarahkendzior
and
@AndreaChalupa
but the same exact people who didn’t take Trump seriously going in, are making that mistake again on the way out. I’ve been watching Newsmax tonight and this is beyond dangerous.
And just as a lesson in contrast Democrats have members of our government named Kamala, Ro, Mazie, Pramila, Hakeem, Rashida, Ilhan, Kai, Kweisi, Ayanna, Nikema, Raul, Jesús, Salud

Just wow. Replay this every time you think this is the final shoe to drop that will wake GOP voters up. They don’t care about facts. It’s just misogyny, bigotry, and ultimately racism.
Holy crap.

Check out some of the replies on this thread, especially from some blue checks. Protecting property, the victims were criminals, etc. It is so obvious what is happening. They attempted a coup and now they are using the courts to redefine a well regulated militia.
I don’t know why Biden thinks this is so complicated. All we have to do is parachute Tom Cotton, Dan Crenshaw, Seth Moulton, Adam Kinzinger, HR McMaster, Courtney Kube, Ken Dilanian, Richard Engel, and David Patreaus into Kabul and they will have it all sorted out by Sunday.

Guys who want free college and student debt forgiveness hating on someone, who could get any number of high priced gigs, teaching at a low priced state school is just all you need to know about elitism in the bro class.
Trump paying off his personal debts by stripping the government and selling it off for scrap just like

have been saying for years.
Trump administration just gave Congress formal notification for a massive arms transfer to the United Arab Emirates: 50 F-35s, 18 MQ-9 Reapers with munitions; a $10 billion munitions package including thousands of Mk 82 dumb bombs, guided bombs, missiles & more, per source

The employees at my Publix don’t even get an employee discount and have to stop at another grocery store after their shifts just to buy food.
This is Kyle Rittenhouse, 17, an Illinois resident who was just charged with first-degree murder of two people last night in Kenosha, Wisconsin. This teen, whose social media history is full of misogyny and white supremacy, had easy access to an AR-15.
Laverne delivers my mail and told me to tell y’all that she’s working her ass off and doing her best to fight DeJoy’s sabotage of the USPS. But at this point, you have to hand deliver your ballot. Straight up.
Ilhan Omar gets all of the GOP hatred and attention because she sits at the nexus of everything they want to destroy. She’s a proud black Muslim refugee woman. She was never supposed to have a voice, let alone a place in govt in the America conservatives created.
Fact, this buffoon looks down when she sees me at the Capitol, this whole story is made up. Sad she thinks bigotry gets her clout.
Anti-Muslim bigotry isn’t funny & shouldn’t be normalized. Congress can’t be a place where hateful and dangerous Muslims tropes get no condemnation.
Watching this heartbreaking and fantastic documentary on the Forgotten Opioid Epidemic narrated by

. It is worth reminding everyone that Rudy Giuliani represented Purdue Pharma and got the Sacklers off easy.
In any other walk of life, if a guy wearing Orange makeup and whatever is on his head came up to you talking like this, you would walk away laughing. 74mm people voted to make him the most powerful man in the world.
@stoolpresidente
A guy who derives the bulk of his net worth from sports and casino gambling is saying this? How odd. Can’t imagine you have any biased interests in this.
Someone being put up for a LIFETIME appointment to the SUPREME Court doesn’t even know what the FIRST amendment protects...This should be immediately disqualifying.
The top US spy for Trump thought his boss was a Russian asset. Just as I predicted & we all suspected 4 years ago. Let that sink it. A. Russian. Asset.
By refusing to fire DeJoy, the USPS Board of Governors is choosing to protect the whims of a major Trump donor over the needs of our Veterans, seniors, small businesses and every American relying on our postal service.
My opponent
@Daniel_PerezFL
and I disagree about almost everything. However, I am hoping we can agree that our active duty forces and our veterans are not “suckers” and “losers”. I’d like to think he agrees, but as with most important issues, he is silent on this one.

If you’re worried about Afghanistan becoming a safe haven for religious extremists, misogynists, terrorists, and people who want to over throw the government, then you’re gonna freak out when I tell you about the United States…
I had to bring my cats to some shady ass building outside of JFK to get all their vaccinations certified for them to be allowed to move to Spain with me. It’s a thing. It stops the spread of diseases. Can’t believe anyone ever took Justin Amash seriously.

You bitchass loser, you didn’t leave the NBA. You played 3 games in it. You claim to care about mental health but aligned yourself with a party that has spent decades trying to cut funding for it. You couldn’t even define communism with a gun to your head and lost your primary
So weird that George Conway is popping up in all these general Milley posts. His wife is freaking Eva Braun and he gave us Kavanaugh. Wake up you idiots
@jennycohn1
is 100% why Regeneron is trending because, as usual, she works tirelessly to save our democracy, doesn’t get anywhere near enough credit, and constantly gets her work ripped off by others.
@RichardJAdkins
Nothing even comes close to Kobe Bryant raping a woman, throwing Shaq under the bus, buying his wife a car, getting a tattoo, changing his number, paying the woman off, and the NBA and Nike rebranding him as a family man because they were in a ratings and sales slump.
Friendly reminder that the SDNY could have prevented Trump from ever becoming president if they actually did their jobs and looked into the Trump Family’s out in the open criminal empire. Listen to

My read on the DANY/Trump Org news today:
DANY is narrowing in on Barry Weisselberg, Allan’s son who is a Trump employee too. Barry’s ex-wife turned over docs and is helping prosecution.
In response...
I found my dad dead in his bed in the house I grew up in after his 2.5 year battle with Pancreatic Cancer. I cleaned up the bile and whatever else his body finally rejected all over his face, gave his forehead a kiss, and then woke his wife of 37 years up to tell her he was gone
The legendary John Thompson once told me, as his son approached, “You’re never too old or too grown to give your daddy a hug and a kiss.”
And then they did just that...
This is my favorite political ad ever but I may be biased. Also, there’s a rumor going around in the political world that

Steve Scalise is one of the biggest pieces of shit in this country. He got shot with an AR-15, was saved by a black lesbian Capitol policewoman, had his life saved by government health care and yet somehow managed to come out for and against all the wrong things.
At some point, when we finally defeat the racists, fascists, misogynists, bigots, military industrial complex, kleptocrats, and everyone else, Sept 21 should be declared a National Holiday. No religión, no ideology. Just America at its best. & then make this the National Anthem
This is the kind of thing that a functioning Speaker of the House would immediately investigate if she had any interest in over 300k dead Americans instead of her donors and the stock market. Where is the oversight?
So trump offered a murderous North Korean dictator a ride on AF1 and invited the Taliban to Camp David.
He wasn’t tough on terror — he was terror’s travel agent.
3 counts of wanton endangerment against one officer. Others not charged. Class D felony (1-5 years) and 15,000.00 bond.
I suffered greater penalties for shoplifting at the Apple store.
Literally.
He got nothing for the murder. “Country justice”. A sad day.
These guys have way more in common with Daesh than anyone in the media is pointing out. Cracking down on these dangerous terrorists has to be a priority of the next DOJ. Sure they are fat Incel losers, but they’re armed and they’re nuts.
The heavily armed Michigan domestic terrorists’ plot included executing public officials on live television, or if all else failed, burning down the statehouse with lawmakers trapped inside. Some of the suspects are free due to bond reductions.

I wish I had the flexibility to perform the mental gymnastics required to say that the Israeli government doesn’t represent all Jews but somehow every Palestinian is in Hamas.
I just got the weirdest look/reaction from someone with a Biden/Harris t-shirt on in front of me at the grocery store. Totally forgot I had on my

t-shirt honoring the Fearless Leader of our Coronavirus Task Force, who is so nice he’s howling thrice...
Friendly reminder now that Joe Manchin and West Virginia are trending. Their football stadium was named after a pharmaceutical executive, who started the company Joe Manchin’s daughter works for, that jacked up the price of EpiPens with government contracts. Cheers 😘😘
Samantha Bee recently did 8-minutes on The Sackler family. The family largely responsible for the opioid epidemic in America. The Sackler family business is Purdue Pharma. They essentially made heroin in pill-form then falsely marketed the drug to doctors…

The year started off with thousands of people storming the freaking Capitol of the country with little to no consequences. This is what happens when there is no accountability.
@sarahkendzior
They’re doing it again now too. Obviously the classification status of these documents is an issue, but let’s focus on the real issue: Who sold what to who and for what in return? That comes with the death penalty.
People need to know it doesn’t work like this. Trump doesn’t lose and the GOP try to overthrow the government last week and we all just move along and behave like buddies. When these traitors are held accountable we can talk about uniting. But until then just miss with it all.
Wonder how her step-son,
@DonaldJTrumpJr

He is what Dems need to figure out how to emulate. A guy in a hoodie and shorts willing to put in the work on the ground, that also has a masters degree in public policy from Harvard. Doesn’t matter what you wear. Show up and do the job if you know your shit.
