If I was a member of the cabinet or Congress. I would be asking myself what I would say to my grandchildren when they asked, “what did you do when the president of the United States threatened to destroy a whole civilization?”

Citizens United is the worst thing that could have ever happened to the country in regards to politics. Get corporate money out of our political system, we will be much better off. Get rid of lobbyists as well. Too much money buying politicians.

I see that the United States' peculiar brand of Christian Nationalism includes judging the poor for needing SNAP benefits (judging is something Jesus said *not to* do) but not helping the poor with SNAP benefits (helping the poor is something Jesus told them *to* do).

Speaker Mike Johnson and Republicans are blocking the swearing-in of Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva. If it wasn’t for them, she’d be the final signature needed on the discharge petition to release the Epstein files.

Republicans delay swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva, the final vote needed for Epstein files release'

Let’s be clear: Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans forced a government shutdown tonight. Rather than address the health care crisis that they created just earlier this year, they refuse to come to the table and do their jobs. What happened to the art of the deal?

In all the noise of the Kirk shooting, it’s important to focus on the really important things. Like that Trump is in the Epstein Files.

Three students were critically shot at Evergreen High School, Colorado; suspect neutralized. Meanwhile, Trump focuses on Charlie Kirk—does anyone actually care about the kids, or is it just another tragic footnote in endless school shootings? abcnews.go.com/US/shooting-...

Let’s make one thing clear from the start: Charlie Kirk was the victim of a shooting in a country where he, along with other right-wing extremist influencers, have been inciting violence for years. — Kirk is neither a martyr nor a hero, he is a cause.

The rhetoric that the Left has been responsible for the bulk of the gun violence seen in the United States is ridiculous. Yes, there are bad and good people on both sides. But it isn’t the Left that screams about their 2nd Amendment rights so vehemently.

We do not fully grasp how damaging the SCOTUS’ presidential immunity decision was. What we know is it was a disaster and the huge damage it has caused is being compounded daily. That is because the result is a collaboration between corrupt justices, a supine Congress and a demented President.

A state demanding its museums reflect a leader's "view of history" has a dark past. • Nazi Germany had its "Great German Art" exhibitions. • The USSR had Socialist Realism. • Now, the WH demands the Smithsonian promote “Americanism". History is warning us. Are we listening?
