The Ukraine crisis is making something abundantly clear.
Spending $800B/yr on a military we can’t use due to the very real threat of nuclear apocalypse doesn’t make much sense…
West Virginia ranks:
50th in child care
50th in public health
45th in education
50th in infrastructure
48th in employment
And Joe Manchin can’t vote yes on the Build Back Better bill cause of inflation?
I know the founders couldn’t foresee everything…
But the highest court in the land having no code of ethics, zero oversight and lifetime appointments seems like a bad idea, no?
Joe Manchin is taking a lot of heat right now, but let's not forget ZERO Republican senators have committed to vote for progress in this country. Should the BBB die, the blame lies with one Democrat and 50 Republicans.
For all their bitching about cancel culture, conservatives have been fine with “cancelling” the MLB, Nike, Kaepernick etc etc etc...
It’s not cancel culture they despise, it’s accountability. And we will continue to hold them accountable.
If you think these extremists from the radical right will stop with just Roe, think again.
Contraception, LGBTQ+ rights, marriage equality…
Don’t think it can’t happen. It just did.

Florida is experiencing the highest Covid case rate in the US – including more than 10K variant cases thanks to spring break – and DeSantis signed an executive order ending all Covid restrictions in the state.
Honestly, change the GOP's slogan to: "We don't care if you die."
Holy. Shit.
This is criminal extortion by a sitting president in an attempt to overturn a democratic election.
Impeach him again. Then prosecute him once he’s out of office.
I know Biden wants to “heal”, and that’s how we begin that process... because this cannot stand.
The Washington Post obtained a recording of Trump urging Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to overturn the results of the election.
Here’s the audio...
So Mitch McConnell can't vote yes on the most qualified nominee based on her court decisions, but rushed through Amy Coney Barrett who never even tried or argued a case?
Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell announced he'll vote against confirming Ketanji Brown Jackson, saying he “cannot and will not” support the nominee for a lifetime appointment on the Supreme Court.
Jim Acosta is 100% right. Greene, Cawthorn, and all these Republicans floating a civil war aren’t actually gonna be fighting.
They, like Trump, will sit on the sidelines relishing in the carnage they created. Disgusting.
Millions are hungry. Millions are jobless. Millions are facing eviction...
D’s fought for bigger checks and more relief.
R’s fought for three martini lunch tax breaks and corporate immunity.
They don’t care about you. Never have. Never will.

Hey
@Twitter
@jack
, is the President holding a governor hostage on your platform in order to overturn the election enough to get him banned? Asking for America.
What a fool Governor
@BrianKempGA
of Georgia is. Could have been so easy, but now we have to do it the hard way. Demand this clown call a Special Session and open up signature verification, NOW. Otherwise, could be a bad day for two GREAT Senators on January 5th.
Hey Jason Aldean, Tennessee’s Covid cases are the highest they’ve been this entire pandemic and are soaring in children because the state ranks 45th in vaccination rates. Maybe adjust your outrage…
We all knew damned well this was probably happening behind the scenes but hearing it firsthand is a whole different thing.
We have our smoking gun.
Lock. Him. Up.

Caitlyn Jenner to Hannity: "My friends are leaving California. My hangar, the guy right across, he was packing up his hangar and I said, where are you going? And he says, 'I'm moving to Sedona, Arizona, I can't take it anymore. I can't walk down the streets and see the homeless'"

@Trevornoah
in this setting. He speaks the truth here. Our system isn’t broken; it’s working as designed.
So it’s time we change the system.
Florida is not doing well. The state hit its highest number of cases in 5 months this week. But President cry baby was right about one thing: Florida’s open! And its dangerously irresponsible.
Jim Acosta is 100% correct in calling the right-wing information ecosystem a "BS factory" and "manure spreading".
Here's just a quick sampling of the BS they spread this past week.
I thought Trump was not going to allow the angry mobs to dominate?
Side note: shutting down counting when your candidate is losing doesn’t seem like the best strategy...
🙄🙄🙄
Republicans railing against Mayor Pete for decades of infrastructure failures while at the same time refusing to pass the infrastructure bill to solve these problems…
Britain’s opposition Labour Party leader Keir Starmer welcomed a Joe Biden and Kamala Harris administration, saying it marked ‘a new era of decency, integrity and compassion in the White House’
They keep crying about “free and fair elections”...
They didn’t give a shit for years when free and fair elections were being undermined when it benefitted THEM.
Shove it up your traitorous ass Jenna.
I always knew my big mouth would take me places… What an incredible day at the White House!
Seriously, 2 years ago I saw injustice in America and our democracy in trouble so I said something. Unfortunately, so much is still at stake.
We can’t stop speaking up! Nov. 8, people!
God bless you, Bernie Sanders.
Mitch McConnell is worth $34M while the state he represents is among the poorest in the country. He is refusing survival checks, a lifeline that millions of Americans are desperate for while he sits on his fortune.
This is infuriating.
Bernie Sanders just stuffed Mitch McConnell in a locker.
“Let me just make it clear for the majority leader — that 10 out of the poorest 25 counties in the US are located in Kentucky.”
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said the state will "eliminate rape" so victims won't have to have their rapist's baby under the state's new abortion restrictions.
You paid $30B more for Twitter than it was worth and lost $123B in Tesla stock in three months. Maybe you aren’t the person to be lecturing Congress on spending.
Whether for or against, please let your elected representatives know what you think about this $1.7 trillion spending bill that they’re trying to pass!
Selena sounds great here, but the televised performance sounded off! Sometimes those mics feed straight vocals to us at home without the reverb or mixing it with the music. That's why it can sound so dead on TV. Not how it's intended to sound! We miss the full effect

Don't DeSantis my California!!!
Governor Newsom has protected Californians from the Delta variant while leading the strongest economic recovery of any state in the country!
Vote NO on the recall by September 14th!
Our poor president is going to have his feelings hurt that our song about

instead of his rally.
We probably shouldn’t keep sharing or retweeting.... it’ll make him really upset. 😏
Us Californians were doing just fine without AR-15’s on our streets. This ruling from Judge Benitez is ridiculous.
40k Americans a year die from guns. We need more gun control, not less!
Congressman Madison Cawthorn just offered Kyle Rittenhouse an internship. Congressman Matt Gaetz did the same.
They are sending a message to America that violence is not only acceptable, it's a resume booster for politics.
Police were reluctant to immediately engage with the gunman who spent an hour inside the elementary school in Uvalde, Tex., because “they could’ve been shot,” a lieutenant with the Texas Department of Public Safety said in a CNN interview.
Senator Kelly Loeffler is trying to sell herself to Georgians as a true “Billionaire of the People” who knows what it’s like to live paycheck to paycheck....
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Biden has been working during the holiday to coordinate 500M home tests, take calls and offer support to governors, and addressed the nation.
Ron DeSantis has been MIA since Dec. 17 while COVID cases break records and local leaders beg for assistance.
In 1933, the Nazi’s passed the “Law Against the Founding of New Parties”, which outlawed all other political parties in Germany.
Not seeing much difference between that and this one being proposed in DeSantistan.
A Republican in Florida just introduced a bill that would ban the Democratic Party from existing in the state. Registered Democrats in Florida would be notified that their party has been “canceled” and they’re now no-party voters.

It’s truly baffling that Bill Maher can be so clear eyed about the GOP’s threat to democracy, yet has gone full “Joe Rogan” when it comes to Covid
The pandemic isn’t over when 2,000 Americans are dying a day.
Whew! Terry Bradshaw did NOT hold back! He’s 100% right. Aaron Rogers lied, selfishly put others in danger, and ran his mouth further dividing this country on scientific facts.
Candace Owens tried to get a COVID test in Aspen, CO, but was denied service (from a private facility) and received this email, and it’s the best thing I’ve ever read.
The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops overwhelmingly voted, 168-55, to draft a document that they hope will prevent Biden and other Catholic politicians from receiving Communion if they advocate for abortion rights.
A $600 check. $300 a week expanded unemployment. After months of waiting, this is all the American government could muster for its hurting people.
Now compare that to the rest of the world.
I really don't want to hear it from the right about Hunter Biden...
Sure he's screwed up plenty, but he's also a private citizen.
Yet, lunatics like Marjorie Taylor Greene and child sex traffickers like Matt Gaetz are heroes to the GOP base.
Big difference.
Apparently, Republicans forgot this bill is called Covid RELIEF. The relief – the parts that directly helps Americans – makes up the majority of the bill.
The “only 9%” talking point is gaslighting. They’re lying to you.
Whether it’s zero votes for Covid relief, zero support for a living wage for essential workers, or lifting mask mandates too early...
The story remains the same.
#RepublicansDontCare
Reminder: Republicans had the chance for a bipartisan Jan. 6 investigation and they voted no. Now they’re throwing a fit after Democrats played by their rules anyway.
They’re not interesting in the truth.
Also,
#JimJordanIsStupid
Marjorie Taylor Greene just threatened to destroy private companies should they obey the law. All to protect the man who tried to overthrow our democracy.
This is where we are, America.
Here's a fun little fact about Joe Manchin:
In his 12 year senate career, he's taken just over $1M from the oil and gas industry; $870K came THIS YEAR ALONE.
Explain yourself,
@Sen_JoeManchin

If you think it’s fine to just let Marjorie Taylor Greene continue in Congress...
Remember what happened the last time the GOP accepted a brash conspiracy theorist who promoted violence...
#ExpelHerNow
Trump knew he had the virus and went to a fundraising event with a get in price of $250K.
This is how he treats his rich buddies who pay to be around him.
And you think he cares about YOU?
Gimme a F-ing break with this
#ObamaVariant
nonsense.
He did the responsible thing and canceled the big public party. If the vaccinated man wants to dance with his vaccinated family and a few vaccinated friends in his private home, FINE!
This not guilty verdict just sent the message to every gun-happy sicko in America (and there's a LOT of them) that it's not only accepted to play vigilante, it's legal.
Kay Ivey can shut up and take responsibility!
Alabama has the nation’s worst vaccination rate. Ivey lifted mask mandates and refused to let businesses require vaccines.
The GOP politicized this pandemic and has the nerve to blame their people now?
