"Not only is Donald Trump not here, not negotiating, Mike Johnson has now shut down the House for 39 consecutive days. There's no one to negotiate with. Across town, Trump is building a $300 million ballroom while he is set to let Americans starve." -- @repstansbury.bsky.social

Why is the @todayshow.com talking so much about Biden’s diagnosis? He’s out of office - it history. Yet they ignore lies about Trump’s health! They ignore Trump’s word salads! The bias is to the right in traditional media.

Deeply disappointed in @nbcnews.com and @todayshow.com that calls Trump’s idea of deporting Americans as “controversial” vs illegal, unconstitutional, or un-American. Stand up to this bullying. You have a voice, use it.

Trump is denying due process to foreign nationals here legally before ripping them from their families and deporting them. Do we really believe this regime will follow any sort of due process for American citizens before Trump tries to deport them? Call it what it is: fascism.

Democrats built their entire party structure on polite deference, seniority, and chasing bipartisanship—as opposed to elevating the most talented and passionate politicians. ...Leaving too many pale, stale (and, frankly, male) lawmakers in prominent positions.

It’s exhausting to watch poll-tested, donor-beholden congressional Democrats continue to be too old, too cloistered, and too bumbling to do anything as the government burns.
