To recap: three GOP-led states that wanted the Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade in order to "send abortion back to the states" are now asking the Court to strike down abortion protections in blue states

Sen. Eric Schmitt was so overzealous to try and get Jack Smith, a good and honest man who has done great work, that Schmitt embarrassed himself by accusing Smith of going to the wrong basketball game. You can't make this stuff up. And right wing media will pretend it never happened.

If he’s willing to lie about his military record, what else is he willing to lie about? Can he be trusted to hold political office? Part of the reason our country is in the shape it’s in is because people vote for candidates who can’t be trusted. www.military.com/air-force-ve...

ProPublica dropped the first story in a new series on corruption in Congress, and it starts with Sen. Susan Collins. A defense contractor illegally funneled $150,000 to a pro-Collins PAC. The company’s CEO later pleaded guilty to unlawful campaign contributions.

Mike Rogers was a leading advocate for boosting opioid prescriptions. He took over $1M from Big Pharma. He has always prioritized personal profit over the health and safety of Michiganders. That's not public safety. Watch our new ad, "Safe."

Fox News is now defending CNN, which is obviously the smart thing to do. Even they realize the tides always turn. They said, “Don’t ban them. Or one day, they’ll ban us.” The MAGA movement is really falling apart.

The New York Times did not blink. The Times: “We won’t be issuing a retraction." But they didn't stop there. "This is another all too common example of the president lashing out at coverage he doesn’t like and belittling journalists who report the facts.”

Robert is right, Republicans and Democrats are screwing the poor and middle class. It's time to adopt legislation that benefits both social classes. Democrats have to make that compromise. Along with an amendment to the Constitution to prevent another Trump from reaching power.

Trump called into a local television station a few hours after the 9/11 attacks and said he watched the explosion from his Trump Tower window more than four miles away. Yesterday, he said he was pulled from Ground Zero that day by first responders. He’s a blatant, pathological liar.
