Thank you Scott!

Yes Noem must go

And love your reference to Obama⬇️

It’s nice to hear from a real president instead of the unhinged madman with a broken brain currently occupying the White House.

Bernie + Obama + Dworkin Report = a combination that never misses.

How do we cripple MAGA. before the midterms? Arrest the pedophiles, impeach as many as possible keep Epstein horrors in the news?

“Great news that already ruined Trump’s week” is such strong Monday energy.

Also, I love that the only person DHS successfully held accountable was the pilot who forgot Kristi Noem’s blankie. That’s not a department of Homeland Security. That’s a daycare with drones.

And Obama calling it a “clown show” is the calmest way anyone has ever described what feels like a meth-fueled Renaissance fair run by grievance accountants.

But here’s the part I can’t stop laughing at: the Dow at 50,000 is apparently the new indulgence certificate. “Sure, authoritarian vibes, but look at the line go up.”

Blessed are those who can tell the difference between a market index and moral leadership.

Yes, Obama's response was stellar: diminish the significance of trump's distractions. Minimize the orange menace; trump cannot tolerate being insignificant. Dismissed.

"Daycare with drones"—that's priceless!

Sauron’s Ring is very powerful.

We need to take a good look at Jon Ossoff. He’s calling out the depravity and the perfidy of The Epstein Class.

Warrior4Justice's avatar

YES on Ossoff! Solid.

There are many impressive lawmakers but I look at Newsom and Pritzker as a solid team upholding what’s important too me. I hope Dems that compromise on ICE pay a political price. How can any American politician watch the cruelty, the criminality, the lack of transparency not protect our Democracy from trumpy goons?

Everyone pay attention to every move made by the: Trump - Epstein - Billionaire Elites to take over America and make the rest of us slaves to them. They care NOTHING about us, they are only in it for themselves. They are all in it together. And with each and every action they take, they are exposed! Case in point here: Kristi Noem is an example of the self-serving corruption that is oozing out of every pore of this regime. She is playing for her big daddy Donald, while playing with her new boyfriend Corey, all the while with a husband, Bryon, back in South Dakota. Good old Republican "Family Values" you know - NOT! And Kristi is on the trail for her daddy Donald working to suppress the vote of WOMEN in America! And here I thought Kristi was a woman? Silly me. Guess women being able to vote doesn't matter to Kristi. So every WOMAN in America remember - Kristi is working to TAKE AWAY the rights of WOMEN to Vote! A solution - VOTE THEM ALL OUT EVERYWHERE!!!

COMMON DREAMS offered this article about KRISTI NOEM & COREY LEWANDOWSKI CORRUPTION that is costing taxpayers GOBS OF MONEY!

‘Most Vile Scumbags on Earth’: Critics Appalled by Explosive Report on Kristi Noem’s Corruption

“Noem and Lewandowski are like the most toxic couple you have ever met given full rein of a government agency.”

Thomas Massie has impressed me. I’m wary…but impressed. ‘Fool me once…’

Any Democrat not fully in this resistance will be reckoned with at the ballot box. ‘Fool me once…’

Don'tBlameTheDog's avatar

Ron Wyden is steadfast. 👍

Katherine Gaeng's avatar

Jamie Raskin, Bernie Sanders and Obama are the ones I follow and appreciate the most. Keep up the good work

#1 CHRIS MURPHY

#2 YES

AND NOW A MESSGE FROM MY SPONSOR, MYSELF;

1) ICE IS A GRAVE DANGER TO AMEICA.. DEFUND ICE

2) IMPEACH NOEM - IN AMERICA IT IS NOT ONLY THE "RIGHT PEOPLE" WHO ARE ALLOWED TO VOTE. THIS WOMAN IS A DANGEROUS IMBECILE.

Marc's avatar

Noem, like Bondi may seem incompetent to most people. However as ignorant as trump is he believes they have almost as much intelligence as him.

Judy Sherwood's avatar

Yep, djt, noem, pamie jo all have about the same level of intellect... 98 is the current US average. 70 is the level where services are indicated.

Scott, what’s going on with Fetterman?

Junior622's avatar

In PENNSYLVANIA, they are already organizing to BOOT FETTERMAN OUT!

PENNSYLVANIA is admitting its MISTAKE!

Jay Jay Eh's avatar

‘Fetterman believes that funding the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is essential to maintain critical services like the 🔹Coast Guard, 🔹FEMA, and 🔹cybersecurity, which would be negatively impacted by a shutdown.

He argues that shutting down DHS would not affect ICE's functionality, as it has 🔻sufficient funding from previous appropriations.’ — Big Billions, in fact.

djw's avatar

I'd be more concerned if I thought those agencies were functional now. FEMA has been shirking its job for months, and I feel certain our "cybersecurity" right now is mostly spying on the people who are supposed to be our allies. I'd have thought the Coast Guard would have been the ones checking out the Venezuelan fishing boats, but that's clearly not happening. So I'm not too concerned about having those agencies shut down for a while.

💥EXACTLY 💯!

Sen. Mark Kelly comes to mind in WINNING against the criminal in the capital.

Yes I think anyone who kneels to the Authoritarian needs to pay a price. I realize it's tough because if they don't he goes after them. But it's why we are here.

Monica P.'s avatar

There are many coming forward to speak truth against don-old and his cabinet of clowns. We must encourage them and let them know we are grateful for speaking out.

I was just glad that today we are celebrating President’s Day, and that don-old didn’t add his name to Lincoln and Washington.

Anna's avatar

Love Rep. Craig's straightforward statement. If the Democrats fold to the regime anywhere along the way, their political careers will suffer. I, for one, am done with Democrats playing nice. There is no collegialiry with facists.

Love Bernie, AOC, Pritzker, Newsom, Wyden, and Merkley, and Mamdani is a great model of leadership so far.
