Is it just me or do you agree if you incite or plan an insurrection against the US Government, you should no longer receive Secret Service protection?

The 1/6 Committee isn’t planning on a dry report written by staffers. They want to issue a gripping report that tells the story of the Capitol attack. politicususa.com/2022/03/19/… via @politicususa

Without robust competition, large corporations can use inflation as a pretext to abuse their pricing power and jack up prices for consumers at the grocery store, at the gas pump & at the pharmacy. I have a plan to create more competition to lower costs. thehill.com/policy/technolog…

Seriously, it’s time for the @GOPLeader McCarthy to address these. It’s becoming comical.

Russian state TV also jumped on comments by Republican congressman Madison Cawthorn, who called Zelenskyy “a thug”. That got played over and over.

The study of profits is a shockingly neglected subset of the economic discipline, writes @Eli_B_Cook. If we want to address inflation and corporate concentration, that needs to change. prospect.org/economy/we-need…

While Republican lawmakers lie about the need for more oil drilling, Big Oil is price-gouging Americans at the pump during an international crisis to line the pockets of investors. We don't need independence from foreign oil—we need independence from fossil fuels and Big Oil.

Major oil companies are telling their investors one thing, while their GOP tell the American people something completely different. No more Big Oil price gouging—we need a swift transition to clean energy.

Oil companies are intentionally price-gouging the American people at the pump to pay their investors—and Republican lawmakers spread their lies about the need for more drilling. Don't believe us? Go to the tape.

The airwaves are full of Dems politely fact checking GOP nonsense on gas prices and Ukraine. Here @ChrisMurphyCT argues that more is needed. Dems should go on offense against the GOP over Ukraine, rather than just respond defensively:
It's time for Dems to get tougher in response to GOP spin on Ukraine. “Democrats need to be on the offense,” says @ChrisMurphyCT. “It’s hard to overhype how damaging the Trump years were to the US-Ukraine relationship." Our interview with Murphy here: washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

🔺 EXCLUSIVE: Two different outfits have been sent to kill the Ukrainian president — mercenaries of the Kremlin-backed Wagner group and Chechen special forces. Both have been thwarted by anti-war elements within Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB)

Gotta say — the best way I’ve found to stay on top of the Ukraine invasion around the clock is @NPRNewsNow’s hourly newscasts. @TimKMak’s spot on the 12 p.m. AK/4 p.m. EST newscast was fantastic. Available on @KRBDRadio, your local @NPR station or podcast. npr.org/podcasts/500005/npr-…

The Germans, threatened by Putin’s aggressive actions, are now sending defensive lethal aid to Ukraine and are re-arming and growing their own Army… pledging now more than 2% GDP to military spending nitter.cf/vonderburchard/status/…

Top quote by Scholz on big armament push for German Bundeswehr (which is in dire state): "We need planes that fly, ships that sail, and soldiers who are optimally equipped for their missions. ... And should be well within the reach of our size and importance in Europe."

Wasnt the partisan acts of WW2 Stalingrad not Russia's finest hour? This is so similar, Russians themselves must be conflicted in their hearts and minds

I am concerned about the deviousness of Putin, former KGB, psyops aficionado. Ukraine must be on high alert and take all needed precautions, change up strategies, locations. I don't know. I'm just very concerned when I hear about Russia running out of gas. Makes no sense.

The way that Ukraine, NATO, US is winning the PR and Intel war is amazing. Putin has been waging online war for 10 years. They were beating him at it weeks before the invasion. They have put him in an impossible win situation. Even if they pushed to occupy fully he has lost.
