One of Trump’s buddies in the House said the quiet part out loud and tweeted his support for Trump’s call to “terminate” the Constitution.

Well, someone must’ve gotten to him because he deleted the tweet but not before Liz Cheney could screenshot it and troll Rep. Kevin McCarthy with it.

Well played, indeed. 👏

Can you spot the circles?

It took me a long time. Once you see them, they'll seem obvious.

This is the Coffer Illusion, by Anthony Norcia

DONT BOOST THIS! It's from *Dec 2022*!

I've checked this and the info from Fix the Court and Jane Mayer is true. The corrupt language protecting spouses of Supreme Court justices from income disclosure is in Section 5933 of the National Defense Authorization Act currently being considered in Congress, on pages 2543 and 2544.

This language would, among other things, protect Ginni Thomas, spouse of Justice Clarence Thomas.

bring on the judicial confirmations. just grind through them, one after the other

not as if the senate is going to have any legislating to do

This is Virginia but it's true everywhere. If you want action on climate change, you have to vote for Democrats.

That's a purely descriptive statement, not normative. You might wish it were otherwise, but it ain't.

Hint: there is a strong partisan divide between the legislators leading us forward and those holding us back.

The average score for Dems was: A
And the average score for GOP was: F

The profits of ExxonMobil, Chevron, BP and Shell have skyrocketed by 169% so far this year to $125 billion.

While you were paying through the nose at the gas pump, Big Oil companies were using the cover of inflation to line their pockets.

It's time for a windfall profits tax.

To recap, the Republican Party is against:

-Paid sick leave
-Paid family & medical leave
-Universal childcare
-Universal pre-K
-Tax increases on corporations & the rich
-The expanded Child Tax Credit
-Student debt relief

Doesn't sound like the party of the working class to me.
