The wild goose chase to impeach Joe Biden has located no geese, but MAGA extremists needed a consolation prize, so they tried and failed to impeach Secretary Mayorkas—on the same day the GOP killed his border compromise!
Justice Alito suggested this week that holding presidents accountable for their crimes could encourage them to commit more crimes to stay in power and avoid prosecution! If the Court embraces this masochistic Trumpian nonsense, they should move their chambers over to the RNC HQ.
Our expansive @oversightdems and @senatebudgetcommittee investigation revealed that Big Oil has been pushing climate disinformation since the 1960s. They knew their emissions fueled climate change, but they obscured the science in a shocking betrayal of our people.
Trump’s lawyer argued that as president he could order the assassination of rivals and face no prosecution unless he’s impeached and convicted. But of course he could just kill or threaten to kill Members of Congress who dare to impeach or convict him. This is the GOP 2024.
Flashing his love for Vladimir Putin and contempt for our NATO allies, Trump invites Putin to conduct more imperialist aggression in Europe. The Mara-Lago kleptocrat promotes violence by the Moscow autocrat, Saudi theocrats and MAGAcrats at the Capitol.
“On the day Mike Johnson (R-La.) became House speaker, 18 Americans were massacred and 13 injured by a mass shooter in Lewiston, Maine — but Johnson’s comments the next day already showed deft command of what is obviously the GOP’s Mass Shooting Rhetorical First-Response Protocol. In the event that Johnson is deposed and another Republican is chosen as speaker and needs a primer — and for the benefit of all members of Congress following National Rifle Association message discipline — I have compiled this guide,” Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) writes in an op-ed. “Beginning with a quote from Johnson, it assembles phrases that have worked well to bury the vast majority of mass shootings in the United States — including the more than 600 recorded in 2023, according to the Gun Violence Archive — in pious nonsense, logical contradiction and legislative inaction. Please copy and paste as needed.” ⛓️💥Visit the link in the bio of @PostOpinions to read Rep. Raskin’s op-ed.
For nearly fifty years, Roe v. Wade protected the right to privacy and autonomy—until Trump’s Supreme Court overturned the case. This Roe anniversary, know that Democrats won’t rest until we restore abortion access, expand choice and safeguard reproductive freedom in America.
