Aaron is not underrating this. It's cinema. The sly smirk when Schmitt thinks he's gotten Smith to perjure himself. The hasty vanishing of the sign. Klobuchar getting Kennedy to hold it up. Schmitt getting LOUD and ANGRY when Klobuchar points out he mixed up the Hawks and Hawkeyes.

3x Trump voter: I really want to apologize. I'm looking at this awful picture of the Obamas...He takes bribes blatantly, and now he's being a racist blatantly. He's pathetic as a president, and I just want to apologize to everybody in the country for supporting this rotten, rotten man.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff. Democracy dies in oligarchy.

Does anyone doing community defense in an ICE hot spot need money for printing zines/know your rights cards? Or would you like a box of professionally printed KYR cards? We can accommodate both. For boxes of cards we’d want to do volume though, like 5000+

It is deeply counter to the whole very basic concept of this nation that its citizens can be taxed and then have funding withheld punitively because the person exercising the power of the presidency decides on a whim to do so.

Stephen Colbert on the ICE murder of Renee Nicole Good: “The message from this administration is clear. Only they determine the truth. And when their forces come to your city: obey or die. And if you die, you clearly didn’t obey. This should be an alarm bell for the entire country.”

The president has illegally declared war to stop fentanyl trafficking from a country that does not traffic that drug, claiming its leader is trafficking drugs himself, the day after pardoning a former leader of a country who is a convicted drug trafficker. Just to level set

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions "Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Q: What does it say that president released a video of him pooping on the American people? MIKE JOHNSON: You can argue he's probably the most effective person who has ever used social media. He's using satire to make a point. He's not calling for the murder of his political opponents.

As you may have noticed, white supremacists want to stop the influx of hardworking young people (aka immigration) while somehow forcing white women to have lots more babies to compensate, but they refuse to make having kids more affordable and less arduous an experience.

Pam Bondi wasn't going to answer any questions today. We all knew that in advance. People can watch the hearing if they want to, but the idea that this is an Attorney General testifying before Congress is laughable. This is just a Trump personal lawyer putting on a performance for her client on TV.

If you say Dems should negotiate with Trump, please confirm you've read the pre-shutdown Trump EO that authorizes you and yours to be probed as terrorists if you commit any thought-crime listed on the right-hand side of this Ken Klippenstein report excerpt. *That* is who you want to negotiate with.

Democrats should never vote to fund a government that's waging war on its own citizens and firing officials *because* they insist on following court orders instead of breaking the law. Let Senate Republicans nuke the filibuster. None of this is normal and it shouldn't be treated as such.

Standing against fascism is now domestic terrorism—by presidential decree. Anyone committed to fighting fascism can now be deemed an enemy of the state, arrested, and held—possibly without full due process—on the claim that they're a "terrorist." Just like that, we lost America.
