@atrupar I’ve always seen Congessional hearings as primarily a chance for representatives to grandstand. But the Republicans have raised it to an insane level of rediculousness

I'm going to put together a thread of Wray's testimony before the House Judiciary Committee. Follow along starting here if interested 👇

@WayneParryAC Of course Murphy will sign it. This is an egregious failure of NJ government to support taxpayers and ratepayers. Already opaque about the real costs of OSW being foisted on us, this adds about another $1billion commitment

Tax break for offshore wind developer Orsted squeaks by in NJ Legislature by a single vote. Now goes to Murphy's desk. tinyurl.com/4nf7ejvt

@kangaroos991 It represents Trumps biggest business success. I say leave it be

@chipfranklin @CalltoActivism I believe it was unsecured bail, no money needed, just a promise to pay

I have questions. George Santos’ father is a house painter. His aunt is a letter carrier for the post office. How did they afford a $500,000 bond? Here’s an idea. Instead of Kevin McCarthy allowing a BS vote of censure against Adam Schiff, he allow the ethics investigation of Santos to go through that’s stuck in committee? Time for the DOJ to examine who‘s money actually paid for this.

@GovernorShapiro The idea of using fill occurred to me. But seems it would need a substantial, buttressed retaining wall and good drainage. Does that still leave room to work in the outer beams?

While the demo has been going on, we've developed the fastest way to reopen this roadway safely. To reopen I-95 as safely and efficiently as  possible, we'll backfill the gap and pave over it. This will allow us to avoid delays and pursue a simple, quicker path.

Both sides of I-95 needed to be demolished before work could begin on a new roadway. Some experts told us this would take about a week. But thanks to the crews working literally 24/7, I can now report that demolition will be done on Thursday.

@TheOnlyEsta No

Would YOU support a 2028, Buttigieg/Ocasio-Cortez ticket, or vice-versa? Yes or No? 🤔

@Michell33650674 My wife and I started working in 1971, office jobs, no degrees. No kids. The Reagan tax cuts helped us quite a bit, partly because we had the marriage penalty. Our taxes were on combined income, thus higher tax bracket

Growing up in the 60's and 70's, my father supported a family of 5 while my mother stayed home. He had a college degree, but we weren't wealthy. We had a nice house, vacations, and good medical care. In 1981, Ronald Reagan SIGNIFICANTLY cut taxes on the rich. That ended it.

@JuantheRoad @RBReich @JoJoFromJerz Both spending and revenue need addressing. Trump tax cuts added more to the deficit then Biden spending did. Needs to be dealt with by Congress

@RBReich @JoJoFromJerz None of you interested in actually engaging in fiscal responsibility. No one interested in spending less? Big daddy government shouldn’t be considered a savior.

Facts on the proposed debt ceiling deal: THE GOOD... - It would lift the debt ceiling until 2025, avoiding another standoff before the elections - It would reject the most extreme cuts the GOP sought

@funder It was particularly funny because the aide told her what to say

Lol Marjorie Taylor Greene getting laughed at for calling for decorum in US House is all you need to see today😂

@OccupyDemocrats Why did they ever even have his portrait displayed?

BREAKING: Donald Trump is publicly humiliated as an inside source reveals that the renowned Penn Club in NYC — the favored social club of Wharton business grads — has hidden their "controversial" portrait of Donald Trump behind a couch in the boardroom. The club chose to "hide" the picture because some of the members absolutely loath the disgraced former president. It now resides "low on the wall, basically behind a piece of furniture." The decision to obscure the portrait is particularly embarrassing because "Trump was a major funder" of the club and "legend goes he negotiated the purchase of the building" in addition to giving a "big donation too." Given what we know about Donald Trump's infamously fragile ego, this is exactly the kind of thing that is sure to get under his skin and drive him into a frothing frenzy. Retweet if you think that they should burn the portrait!

@SpeakerMcCarthy Take the same stance you did last time. Raise the debt to pay bills we’ve already incurred. Then negotiate the budget

Just got off the phone with the president while he’s out of the country. My position has not changed. Washington cannot continue to spend money we do not have at the expense of children and grandchildren. Tomorrow, he and I will meet in person to continue negotiations.

@moderndeal_co Please show the end where the bag of cooked objects are removed for serving

@buitengebieden I thought that’s downward dog

Cats will be cats..

@MysterySolvent Tractor Supply ?

Where did Sarah Huckabee Sanders get her dress?

@buitengebieden The dog’s ears tell me he was on alert the whole time

@kangaroos991 It should stay. His tv show was the most successful legitimate business he’s ever had.

@MrUnd3RStoOd @EdKrassen What Teixeira did is punishable by death. Vindman followed whistleblower protocol

Republicans are now trying to compare the honorable Alexander Vindman to the Traitor Jack Teixeira. Don't fall for their false comparison. FACTS: While Teixeira deliberately leaked top secret national security documents in order to appear "cool" to his friends, Vindman went through the proper whistleblower protocol in order to provide legitimate evidence in an impeachment hearing. Everything that Vindman did was completely legal while everything that Teixeira did was completely illegal. It's funny how Republicans are siding with the illegal actor and attacking the legal actor.

@blue00_mom @MikeHudema Emission controls and energy star have gone a long way. But the US has the highest electric use per capita in the world

@MikeHudema The USA is so far behind in implementing solutions to address the climate crisis
