Our kids are dying. And they laugh. During a debate on requiring safe storage of guns, a senior House Republican clapped and laughed at their inaction on gun safety. This is not normal. This should never be normal.

There is some sort of awful week-by-week sexist, homophonic, racist playbook that Republicans play out. This eeek it’s questioning other men’s masculinity, especially those who might win in a fair (electoral) fight. #FuckCruz

The next time Ted Cruz sneers at James Talarico's masculinity bonafides, Talarico should remind everyone that Ted Cruz was the president of his high school's drama club, where he starred in musicals. From my experience, that tends to signify gayness more reliably than simply not weighing a lot.

I appreciate his commitment & honesty. But he really dodged the discontent about current #Democratic leadership from progressives fighting Trump’s lawlessness & incipient dictatorship. He should look to Mamdani, AOC, Jayapal, Omar, and DSA members on Portland’s city council, not Dem gerontocracy.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
