Absolutely. Every fucking time Blanche states that he’s the lawyer of the members of this corrupt administration he is telling you how disturbed and cult-sucked-in he is.
Todd Blanche was Donald Trump’s personal lawyer, and as Attorney General of the United States, he’s still acting like it. Blanche should be defending the Constitution, not threatening our Committee for doing our jobs. We will not be intimidated.

Putin grows more brazen, more despicable. Blatant genocide. On day 7, russia is still striking rescuers searching for bodies. 60 dead, 45 missing. Dnipro: 600,000 without power overnight. Trump’s America chose complicity in Putin’s slaughter of civilians.
This morning, the Russians attacked Komyshuvakha with an FPV drone, where emergency rescue operations have been underway for seven days following an aerial bomb strike that killed 55 people. Unfortunately, more people may still be under the rubble. Absolute cynicism and brutality. There was also an overnight attack on the Dnipro region – the Russians struck energy infrastructure, leaving more than 600,000 people in Dnipro and the region without power. In the Kharkiv region, the situation is difficult too. There are widespread power outages across the country. In the Zhytomyr region alone, 140 apartment buildings were left without heating following a Russian strike. Repair work is underway in virtually every affected city and community. I thank the energy workers, utility workers, and every repair crew who are literally working 24/7 to restore water, electricity, and heating supplies to people. In total, this past week alone, Russia has launched 115 missiles of various types, nearly 1,900 guided aerial bombs, and more than 3,000 attack drones against our cities and communities. These are combined strikes involving many ballistic missiles. And a significant portion of the missiles were manufactured this year. We constantly provide our partners with information about Russian enterprises involved in ballistic missile production. In October, Ukraine imposed major sanctions packages on the individuals and legal entities involved. It is very important that they be synchronized across Europe and G7 jurisdictions. If the world does not have enough anti-ballistic capabilities to protect Ukrainian skies, then the missiles must be stopped on the production lines. We count on a strong 22nd EU sanctions package. Thank you to all partners who are truly helping.

🚨 Rep. Thomas Massie just exposed a hidden Epstein list. He says the FBI has been sitting on files naming 20 more men tied to Epstein’s sex trafficking ring — including a high-profile U.S. official. And Kash Patel? Massie says he lied to the American people. They had the list the whole time. The coverup is collapsing. Release. The. Names. Now.

I know I wrote a post like this recently, but I feel like I am going to explode if I hear another Republican misuse the word "socialism." For my Republican friends out there, let me explain what socialism actually means. Socialism is an economic system in which the means of production are socially or publicly owned, including through state ownership. Universal healthcare is not socialism. Social welfare programs designed to prevent homelessness and poverty are not socialism. Free public education is not socialism. In fact, it is entirely possible to have a highly capitalist economy alongside an extensive social welfare system. Even Milton Friedman, one of the most influential advocates of free-market capitalism, supported a negative income tax to provide a basic income floor for the poor. So please stop with the BS accusations of socialism every time someone proposes a social welfare program. Ironically, some of the most conspicuous examples of state intervention in private enterprise in contemporary America come from the Trump administration itself. Its increasingly dirigiste economic policies include acquiring ownership stakes in private companies, asserting government control over corporate decisions, and imposing economically damaging tariffs on American businesses and consumers. If you are genuinely concerned about government interference in free markets, perhaps you should start there.

Dear America. 6 time bankrupt Trump & his dumb ass sons didn't just suddenly become investment & business geniuses. Corrupt businessmen with brains offered them a cut of the profits in exchange for favors, pardons, & contracts. And they said yes.

I’ll be posting this every single day: SPREAD THIS FAR AND WIDE: Trump’s Big, Ugly Bill was designed to leave Americans feeling the pain long after Republicans passed it. When the worst cuts hit, don’t suddenly blame Democrats. REPUBLICANS WROTE IT. REPUBLICANS PASSED IT. REPUBLICANS OWN IT. Don’t let them rewrite history.

Today: 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck and we have the highest rate of childhood poverty of any major nation. Meanwhile, Elon Musk owns more wealth than the bottom 53% of households and the 1% have never ever had it so good Not acceptable We need an economy that works for all, not just the few.

Truly touching. He has no reason to do this now, but here he is paying respect to Salgado.
"In his first public appearance since winning the election, James Talarico adds his "I voted" sticker to Lorenzo Salgado's memorial in Houston. Lorenzo was murdered by ICE 4 months ago today" #USDemocracy #Talarico #SenatorTalarico

My favorite Midterms metric is that Talarico got more votes in early voting than Paxton did for the whole election. Talarico could have received ZERO votes on Election Day and still would have won. The nation is healing, MAGA is dying.

Reminder that Israel is banning mobile shelters, prefabricated homes, or even shipping containers from entering Gaza & is heavily restricting the entry of tents; all for no reason other than inflicting conditions of life calculated to bring about Gazans' physical destruction; i.e. genocide
🚨 HORRIFIC SCENES IN GAZA: Displaced families’ tents are completely submerged in floodwater. After Israel destroyed their homes, families are now left with nothing but flooded tents, with nowhere else to go.

Before Midterms, MAGA called polls predicting Democratic victory fake and after Democrats won, they are calling the election rigged. These are not people who should be taken seriously.

Israel wiped Gaza from the face of the earth. The survivors have been living in tents for three years. Those tents are now being flooded. The West has condemned them to these apocalyptic conditions. This abomination must end.

Barron Trump is a grown-ass man who's best friends with Andrew Tate and built a $150 million crypto fortune. He's absolutely fair game for a corruption investigation, along with the rest of his crime family.

“Russia is starting to attack Britain” what do you mean STARTING? Brexit was Russia. The rise of Reform is Russia. Widespread far right bot activity is Russia. Male street violence is Russia. European election interference is Russia. Widespread division and chaos is Russia.
