I’m actually referring to your 30,000 stock trades (more than all Members of Congress combined), your Qatari-gifted luxury jet, your crypto scams, your Truth Social pay to play scheme, your billionaire-funded ballroom, your insurrectionist slush fund, and your pardons for big donors—just to name a few.
Senate Democrats will ban stock trading for all Members of Congress and White House officials, and hold you and your administration accountable for all the ways your rampant corruption has made life more expensive for families.

I cover Mexico for The New York Times, and there is no such "invasion."
About 1,500 people recently began walking north from the southern tip of Mexico — weeks away from the United States — and very few, if any, will reach the northern border.
Over the past two years, the Mexican government has repeatedly broken up these small caravans within days of them starting. And there have been far fewer of them since Trump took office.
The reality is the number of illegal border crossings remain near historic lows.

I’ve seen some of my colleagues say @SecWar Hegseth has been effective and they agree with the war, so they’ll vote not to impeach.
That’s not the question though. The question is whether he committed impeachable acts, and the answer is yes, eight times:

IMPEACHMENT, Article III
The law requires our military to withdraw from hostilities within 60 days if Congress does not authorize the activity.
Operation Epic Fury has been underway for 256 days. Congress has not authorized it.
Hegseth is breaking the law.
Not even debatable.

Ah yes the diabolical conspiracy in Texas to deliver the state to Democrats, led by the heads of the state…. GOP Governor Abbot and … Attorney General Paxton who …. lost….

When being just and honest comes at a price, pay it. When forgiving seems like a defeat, forgive. When everyone tells you to think of yourselves first, do not be afraid to put yourselves in the last place. Be willing to give up time, money, comfort and plans to serve others. May those who see you find themselves asking: “Why do they live in this way? Where do they get this freedom? Why do they love one another so much?” #ApostolicJourney #Uruguay

They’ve created such an absurd caricature of Democrats that all they have to do is show up and not sound crazy and they can own conservatives.
"Get rid of borders?" "No." "Get rid of SCOTUS?" "No." "Get rid of jails?" "No."
@ShannonBream fires off a series of questions to NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani about the Democratic Socialists of America, an organization he proudly says he belongs to.
After Mamdani rejects all three proposals, Bream asks whether the DSA will kick him out. He answers "No" again, this time with laughter.

I don't blame you for not knowing my actual position on the Iran war Chris. Then again, I don't put it past you to lie for advantage. After all you guys are trying to make (((supported the Iran war))) into a New Right shibboleth.
But your interpretation of my intent is deceitful demagogic bad faith nonsense. And I really don't have a lot of patience for someone who signal boosted Trump and Vance's "their eating the cats" bullshit and indulged in "The Indian Question" discourse, calling me classless.
I am curious, though. What is the statute of limitations on criticizing a multimillion dollar political organization that has failed to do what its tragically murdered founder set out to do and routinely promotes conspiracy theorists, racists, and cranks like Jack Posobiec as thought leaders. Will it stop being "classless" in 2027? Will you deign to engage in the arguments on the merits then? Or will you be hiding behind Kirk's memory indefinitely to avoid arguing like a grown up?
I really just want to understand the rules. Oh that's right, you don't believe in rules. You believe that the Gramscian (eyeroll) pursuit of power is self-justifying. You only invoke rules and norms when they are the nearest weapon to hand, like slandering immigrant groups for fun and profit.
“Did you know [bad person] likes thing you like? Well maybe you shouldn’t like thing you like!”
Laziest argument format ever.

It's because Ossoff won a Senate race in a purple Southern state by 19 points.

The worst-performing Democrats in competitive Senate races were the candidates Bernie endorsed. (link in next tweet, no paywall)

I know it seems petty, but it's actually pretty important to not let socialists claim they "won" the midterm, because you better believe the fake history they're trying to lay the groundwork for now is going to be used to justify absurd asks and claims in 2028.
Bernie Sanders lost the fight in 2016. A decade later, he won the war. politi.co/4ekGIS5

The fever has broken.
Americans are tired of hating each other.
Make our politics THIS again.

I stopped by Renee and Alex’s memorials today and was inspired to see all those who showed up to pay their respects and leave an “I voted” sticker.
We have not forgotten. Accountability is coming.

Today's results are better understood as a left-center wave, not a woke one. Trump lost big but so did a lot of far left ideas.
- Billionaire tax failed in CA
- Transgender school sports restrictions passed in WA
- Increased penalties for fentanyl dealing and even possession passed in CO
- Wiener won over Chan in SF
Nationwide the electoral mood was normie lib wine mom, not far left. A victory against the horseshoe.
