We can't look away. These people who deny Sandy Hook and Parkland happened (and January 6th and so much more) are now in power. We need to organize and vote them out if we are ever going to stop the insanity.
Quote Tweet
Marjorie Taylor Greene said that Sandy Hook and Parkland were staged and the parents are actors and the kids are really still alive. Republicans just put her on the committee that oversees school safety. But Ilhan Omar…

If you can support someone who attempted to overturn an election (and that was just the worst of many disqualifying things), then your tribalism has overwhelmed your judgment. And you have demonstrated that you, too, are unfit. Even worse, you’re normalizing what Trump did.

Chris Sununu says that he would support Donald Trump if he was the GOP nominee and says that he was joking when he called Donald Trump "f***ing crazy."

And that's just a short list. We need to expose their governor's attacks on individual privacy and freedom. He is trying to woo the far right for his presidential run- just a better organized Trump.

It’s getting downright Orwellian in Florida. Big government tells you what books to read. Big government tells teachers what they can say and can’t say. Big government punishes companies that dissent from the government line.
Trump goes all in on preferring Putin to the U.S. government. It’s good to have clarity on this. And it’s an opportunity for all those Republicans who plan to run against Trump and all those who say they want to move beyond Trump, to step up publicly and say: Never Again Trump.

Because the job of law enforcement is to investigate crimes. Not spend all day debunking cracked out trash conspiracy theories your friends came up with, Glenn.

The Paul Pelosi attack video seems clear to me: This was a hostage situation and he is lucky to be alive. Why was this not released IMMEDIATELY to clear up all the confusion?

By refusing to seat Adam Schiff, Eric Swalwell and Ilhan Omar on their committees while seating compulsive liar and conman George Santos and bowing and scraping to compulsive liar and conman Donald Trump, Kevin McCarthy has shown America exactly what he believes in: nothing.

From 2017-early 2020, Trump signed into law $4.7 trillion of new debt, above & beyond what US had been expected to borrow absent new laws About half of that $4.7T in new debt was through spending increases. This was all *before* covid hit. wapo.st/3GOj52A

We cannot raise the debt ceiling. Democrats have carelessly spent our taxpayer money and devalued our currency. They've made their bed, so they must lie in it.

1) because Trump obstructed justice by failing to comply with a subpoena. Biden volunteered all docs. 2) It’s standard procedure for the FBI to photograph everything they find during a search warrant. In the future, feel free to reach out to me directly with your questions.
Quote Tweet
Why was President Trump’s home raided but not President Biden’s? Why did the FBI take pictures of President Trump’s so-called classified documents but not President Biden’s? Americans are tired of the double standard.

Exxon knew. Decades ago. Denied it. Hid the science. Now we all live with the consequences.
Quote Tweet
In light of the paper from @GeoffreySupran @rahmstorf @NaomiOreskes showing that Exxon predicted global warming extremely accurately between 1977 and 2003, this exchange between @AOC and Exxon scientists is worth revisiting.

Kevin McCarthy doesn't have a problem with George Santos completely fabricating his resume because "a lot of people here" have lied. Tells you a lot about what he thinks about his caucus. And why he just gutted the Office of Congressional Ethics.

This is what has happened to the US House GOP. Indifferent to the consequences. Power matters most.

.@RepAdamSchiff successfully prosecuted Richard Miller, the FBI agent who was giving our secrets to the Russians, yet @SpeakerMcCarthy is removing Schiff from the intelligence committee. Putin will be pleased. Patriotic Americans should be appalled.

Another one in the House. Read through. Then tell Kevin McCarthy to stop putting himself before his country.

The man holding the door for George Santos is Vish Burra, a Steve Bannon henchman and leader of the New York Young Republican Club. NYYRC is an elite fascist networking nexus with strong ties to far-right foreign political parties. Burra is Santos' "operations director." twitter.com/ZTPetrizzo/sta…

Letting tax cheats off the hook. Preparing cuts to Medicare and Social Security. Laying the groundwork for a nationwide abortion ban. And Republicans are just getting warmed up. This isn’t an agenda for workers or families. It’s a recipe for disaster.

Dr. Geoffrey Clark cared deeply about the citizens of NH. He and Senator Martha Fuller Clark always looked for ways to help people and for projects to help our communities. Martha and their family are in my thoughts and prayers. #nhpolitics

“Just say the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me and the Republican congressmen.” Donald Trump to the Acting Attorney General and Acting Deputy AG. December 27, 2020.

McCarthy: “I do want to especially thank Pres Trump. I don’t think anyone should doubt his influence. He was with me from the beginning. He was all in. What he’s really saying for the party and the country is we have to come together.”

This once-in-a-century humiliation of a party’s nominee for Speaker is chickens coming home to roost for McCarthy, who whitewashed right-wing insurrectionism on the House floor. Nobody’s getting killed now, but the House GOP now sleeps in the bed they made with Trump and Bannon.
