WhatsUp with #Republicans refusing to comply with lawful #subpoenas? Ever since #Trump brought his fat ass down the escalator, refusing to comply with subpoenas has become the default #Republican response. This petulant refusal to be held to account is pissing in the face of every American. We have a system of checks and balances that Republicans are committed to destroying.
Sen. #RonJohnson, a #RussianAsset masquerading as a US Senator, has emerged from his #dacha to express outrage over #federalSpending. Talk about a one-trick pony! Whenever scum like Johnson are desperate to distract attention away from their failures as human beings, they complain about spending. But, when they're in charge, suddenly there's no problem, and it's time for more tax cuts for the wealthy!
Sen. Goober has humiliated himself every time he's opened his mouth, proving he doesn't have the slightest idea of what's going on. But, now we're supposed to believe he's a credible, authoritative voice on #Ukraine? GTFOHWTBS
This is what it looks like for the federal government to actually target private industries. And if all this sounds disturbing to you (which it should), keep in mind that this is what #GymJordan is doing when he has little power. If #Trump is re-elected and #Republicans retake the Senate, #Jordan will have a lot of powerful allies in these schemes to try to influence the news and social media that Americans consume.
According to #farRight, #antigay, #transphobic#bigot groups, they are the only ones entitled to #ConstitutionalRights. People who aren't white, straight, and conservative have no expectation of civility, or the universal guarantees enumerated by the #Constitution. And that's the world these positively garbage human beings are trying to create.
Another #MAGA#lunatic is attempting to destroy our country, plunging us into abject chaos and economic despair. This progressive gentleman wants to repeal the #16thAmendment, effectively ending the very notion of #incomeTax from our law books. His argument is basically, "we didn't used to have income tax!", a pathetic appeal to nostalgia. To be clear, #America would grind to a halt if this clown's dreams came true.
#MariaBartiromo is already making baseless claims that the upcoming November election will be "tampered with". Apparently, nobody told her about that little settlement her employer had to pay out for claims very similar to what the #MoneyHoney is now spewing.
Suspicion is swirling around the broadcaster of #TedCruz's podcast after $630,850 payment was made 2 a #PAC that supports the #Texas#GOP#Senator
#FederalElectionCommission data shows large sum was paid by #iHeartMedia to the #TruthAndCouragePAC, making up a third of its revenue since the beginning of 2023. As #Newsweek pointed out, critics are calling for an investigation to be launched, but Cruz says he's done nothing wrong
Nothing says #freeMarket#capitalism like trying to legislatively prop up a preferred industry by banning new, competing technologies. Just the latest example of the blinding #hypocrisy of the #GOP. Sorry, but we have to leverage the power of the state to make sure everything is the same as we remember from our childhoods. Progress is an existential threat!
Understand that #Trump's sole purpose in publicly attacking the family of the judge presiding over his NY criminal case is to incite #stochasticViolence against the judge's family. When he posts the name of #JudgeMerchan's daughter, he's signaling his delusional, anti-American supporters to engage in threats, harassment, and violence against her. He wants to see her being attacked in his name.
#MarjorieTraitorGreene is a shameless #hypocrite who regularly pulls this classic #Republican tactic. After railing against spending bills, and repeatedly voting against them, she runs right out and brags to her constituents about the money her district will receive from those same bills. Bitch! You voted against this funding, and now you're out there taking credit for it? GTFOHWTBS
#MarjorieTraitorGreene is apoplectic over Commander #MikeJohnson working with the #Democrats in order to avoid a #governmentShutdown, which would have been a disaster for #Republicans heading into the November election. But Marj doesn't care about reality. She considers working across the aisle a capital offense, and would rather see the country collapse than compromise with Democrats. Not really a great perspective for someone in #Congress.
Another day, another example of dumbshit #conservatives whose knee-jerk reaction to everything they don't like is to blame #liberals. In today's story, neighbors of a mansion that was illegally seized by a grifter were upset. Even through the law prohibits #squatters, the grifter remained, drawing the ire of the neighbors. But these brave personal responsibility advocates didn't blame him. They blamed liberals.
Just when you thought #Republicans couldn't get any dumber, they do this...
#TennesseeRepublicans, desperate to do anything other than improve the lives of their constituents, have latched onto yet another absurd and definitively debunked #conspiracyTheory. This time, they won't be helping their people so they can instead focus all their attention on preventing "#chemtrails", which literally don't exist. 🤦♂️✈️
All of Ukraine has been woken up before dawn by the threat of incoming hypersonic and cruise missiles.
Russia’s barbaric attacks on an entire people continue to threaten civilians and break international law. Ukraine needs our help now
As russian missiles are approaching Ukraine, and we are sitting here and praying to see the next morning, it is a good moment to remember that russia is genocidal death cult.
Edit: Kharkiv electrical hit with 15 ballistic missiles plunging Ukrainians into total darkness, no water, no electricity.
Republicans & #MoscowMike are terrorists, & do not belong in America. Traitors to our allies.
The ‘#MAGA blueprint’ isn’t a one-off project — it’s backed by the same #farRight figures who have long dictated the conservative agenda. Leo, Koch and others should be held to account for propping up a policy platform that puts #specialInterests over everyday Americans and poses an existential threat to our #democracy.
The budget proposal from the #farRight#MAGA-affiliated group of about 170 #HouseRepublicans would effectively create a national #abortionBan and ban on in-vitro fertilization procedures (#IVF) by creating legal protections for human embryos starting at “the moment of fertilization.” It mentions the word “#abortion” 77 times.
