This is what a sitting President had to say about a former FBI Director. All the “leaders” who are tolerating this behavior are complicit.

REP. @JodyBarrett4TN (R): “These (vouchers) are going to the wealthiest kids.” Barrett, a REPUBLICAN, exposes @WilliamLamberth’s $300,000,000 vouchers expansion bill — subsidizing tuition for kids already in private schools. finance committee next: wapp.capitol.tn.gov/apps/Committee…

First KKKaroline Levitt tries to pass it off as a joke, when that doesn’t work they try to blame a staffer. To my colleagues across the aisle who are pretending the “it was a staffer” lie makes it ok, you are as dumb as you are racist.

Donald Trump is withholding billions of dollars in New York infrastructure unless he gets Penn Station and Dulles Airport named after him. This is not only brazenly corrupt. It is sick, twisted and egomaniacal. The time is long overdue for sane Republicans to stand up to Trump.

Trump posted a disgustingly racist video depicting the Obamas as apes. Are my Republican colleagues going to continue to bend the knee to a racist, authoritarian president who wants the American people to bow down before him?

OBAMA: “People make excuses for him. They say he’s not serious. Everything a president says is serious!”🔥

Every Republican leader who does not speak out is complicit.

When are people going to wake up and realize the Trumpers are full of it when they “crack down” on immigration? If they really cared, they’d make e-verify mandatory. But that would piss off their donors. So they tweet crazy stuff and send ICE to roam about instead.

Union guy wins deep red district. Seems like this is brand of progressive who wins. Texas Democrat who flipped reliably red district says people are 'tired of campaigns of outrage' - ABC News abcnews.go.com/Politics/texas…

Yesterday I published the piece below and some folks said it was alarmist evidence of TDS (how anyone could say that after Jan. 6 boggles the mind). And today Trump says Republicans should take over the voting in multiple places. We're still too complacent. nytimes.com/2026/02/01/opi…

In Minneapolis and many other communities across the country, we're seeing people come together to peacefully protest and support their neighbors. If you're looking to get involved, here are some ways to help: vox.com/future-perfect…

"It’s time to wake up. Trump seems keen on influencing the vote in states that will decide margins in 2026 and the outcome in 2028. That he has the FBI participating in his effort is a terrifying demonstration of how many guardrails he has steamrolled..." open.substack.com/pub/thebulwark…

Are you better off now than you were one year ago?? Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, and Mark Zuckerberg sure are. They got $250 BILLION richer since attending Trump’s inauguration. Trump’s economy works for them, not you.

Kristi Noem AND Stephen Miller must go.

Does the Freedom Caucus really think this is consistent with American values?

While the billionaire class gets obscenely richer, two-thirds of Americans say a middle-class lifestyle is out of reach, and a majority can’t afford decent education, housing or a secure retirement. In the richest country on Earth, we can, and must, do better.

You will lose the midterms because you have stood silently by as Trump has engaged on open corruption and repeated defiance or our Constitution and the traditions that have made us a successful nation.

Rand Paul: "When people watch that video and the government tells them, 'Well, he was assaulting the police officers,' nobody with any objectivity believes that's what's happening. No American believes he was assaulting the officers. In fact, the opposite appears to be true. So we have to get some rules of the game."

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Republican Rand Paul appears to be openly questioning whether he wants to fund ICE. The dam is breaking. Let’s go.

What is the justification for this militarization of ICE? Why the assault rifles? They are tasked with performing an administrative function. Why carry weapons at all? The Height of Close-Combat Weaponry Is on This Woman’s Doorstep nytimes.com/2026/01/28/us/… via @NYTimes
