“In my 50-plus years paying attention to politics, I don’t remember ANY elected person getting a pass for attacking individuals and groups with such viciousness. “My question to Republican ‘leaders’ is, ‘Why are you silent?’” https://t.co/BC1RylGjgg

It’s Sunday morning. No alcohol or other mind-altering substances in my body. I have had one cup of coffee. I am beyond disappointed and frustrated. Anger is the most descriptive word for my mood....

I've never seen anything like this in my lifetime. Just look at their faces. There's widespread shame over what Trump is doing. It's a national disgrace. Good on them for speaking up. https://t.co/YJHH0YrgKX

@the_jefferymead Republicans were stupid enough to open Pandora’s box… and now they’re whining. Just keep in mind that had Trump not demanded red states redistrict mid-decade to rig the mid-term elections, none of this would be happening now. It’s was pure desperation from the GOP knowing

The Donald has been president during 2.1% of the time America has been a republic, but has generated $9.2 trillion or 25.4% of Washington's $37+ trillion of public debt. He doesn't call himself the "King of Debt" for no reason.

As South Dakota’s next Senator, I won’t have voices from Wall Street and Silicon Valley influencing me when it comes to regulating AI data centers. The American people don’t want special interests taking precedence over local resources and driving up utility bills.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff. Democracy dies in oligarchy.

Hey @LeaderJohnThune , Have your minions figured out what you are going to do when #47 steals the Nov 26 elections? Will you stand up then? Or doesn't democracy matter as much as your "power"?

In 1933, Mussolini closed the national opera to “renovate” it. In 1934, Hitler closed the national opera house to “renovate” it. In 1935, Portuguese dictator Salazar closed the national opera house to “renovate” it. What a weird series of coincidences!
TRUMP is asked if he's going to tear down the Kennedy Center. This is what he says: "I'm not ripping it down. I'll be using the steel. So we're using the structure, we're using some of the marble and some of the marble comes down."

BREAKING: Both the White House & RNCC have lashed out at the creators of this ad. It must have struck a nerve. Maybe they don't like being outed as fascists. You know what to do: SPREAD THIS EVERYWHERE!

So we blew up South Dakota’s agricultural export markets for what reason exactly? And when he had the chance to take actions, all Mike Rounds did was express “concern.”

I’m Brian Bengs. I’m a husband, father, retired Lt. Colonel and former Park Ranger. I’m running for Senate and coming to your town because South Dakotans deserve a Senator who will show up for them.

Bruce Springsteen on Trump: “I couldn't care less what he thinks about me. He's the living personification of what the 25th Amendment and impeachment were for. If Congress had any guts, he'd be consigned to the trash heap of history." RETWEET if you stand with @Springsteen!

When I wrote about buy-up prevented planting coverage being dropped back in December, everyone shrugged their shoulders. Now, lo and behold, it has become a big deal and groups are called for USDA to reverse the decision.

I will simply never recover from reading this sentence: "Since Georgia implemented work requirements in 2020, they have spent twice as much on Deloitte consultants and administrative costs as on healthcare for people."
Today, Luke Farrell explains how complex eligibility requirements have turned America’s safety net into a lucrative revenue stream for monopolistic private contractors.

BREAKING: Music legend Bruce Springsteen just released this incredible song that will be sure to piss Trump off beyond belief. “Streets of Minneapolis”. He wrote this song about Alex Pretti and Renée Good Saturday and recorded it yesterday. Share it far and wide and play it

@TrumpWarRoom @realDonaldTrump The dollar is dropping like a rock, which means increasing inflation, higher prices for Americans, and farmers and manufacturers relying on imported energy or components face higher costs. Trump, the worst President in America’s history, has no clue what he’s doing.

#sdleg Some serious property tax 101 going on now in discussion of SB97 in Senate Tax. No opponents testify on raising cap on valuation growth from 3% to 5%, but still lots of committee questions.

Well, here's one GOP office holder more brave than South Dakota's own @LeaderJohnThune , @SenatorRounds , or @RepDustyJohnson
Republican Governor of Vermont, Phil Scott: “Enough. It’s not acceptable for American citizens to be killed by federal agents for exercising their God-given and constitutional rights to protest their government. At best, these federal immigration operations are a complete
