🚨 BREAKING: Six House Republicans just joined Democrats to PROTECT HAITIAN MIGRANTS, 219-209 Are you KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW!? This would give Haitians temporary protected status — a category in which one of them KlLLED that woman in Florida at a gas station Per Tim Burchett: “A Democrat motion to provide for consideration that legal immigrants status to Haitians.” “It provides legal immigrants status to Haitians who are already in the United States. So you have illegal Haitians here and we're going to allow them to stay. And [several] Republicans, look them up, who they were.” “You can pretty much guess, but go ahead and look them up. Anyway, unbelievable. This is one time I'm glad for an inaction in the Senate.” “That's what we've become. We gotta, we gotta clean this mess up up here.” REPUBLICAN “YEAs”: - Salazar - Bacon - Fitzpatrick - Gimenez - Lawler - Malliotakis It’s not final passage, but this is the motion moving forward.

@ProfMJCleveland I am not the expert, but the info online is this ship never came close to or stopped in Iranian waters.
English
I'm confused: Is this an Iranian ship? Is this supposedly a breach of US blockade or made possible because US is blocking Iran ports?

First crude tanker moves west through Hormuz since U.S. blockade The Malta flagged ‘VLCC Agios Fanourios’ is the first crude carrier to transit westbound through the Strait of Hormuz following the U.S. blockade on Iran’s ports. It aborted its first attempt on Sunday when US-Iran talks collapsed in Islamabad, then succeeded on its second try today, transiting along a Tehran-approved route between Qeshm and Larak islands. According to Iranian media, the ship is carrying 2 million barrels of oil.

@IsaiahLCarter Where is the GOP? Every single law like this should be challenged in court.
English
Someone, please explain to me...
How does this NOT result in another civil war in this country, exactly?
How is this NOT the foundation of a second Confederacy, by the EXACT same party who started the FIRST War Between the States??
Nah, these questions NEED to be asked and answered, RIGHT NOW.
A "National Popular Vote Interstate Compact" is a blatant subversion of the Constitution.
It is the final fantasy (yes, I DID use that intentionally) of a spoiled, affluent, urban WHITE professional-managerial class; a last-ditch effort to rule over the rest of the country by force, and nullifying the votes of conservatives within the states of the "Compact."
How does this shit happen on the watch of REPUBLICANS in these states within this bullshit "compact", unless they're making containment deals to keep the worst of the Communism Democrats will bring within the urban centers?
Why were these bills NEVER put to a referendum vote?
Micah@micah_erfan
🚨 Virginia has joined the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact. This brings America one step closer to a national popular vote for President.

@RapidResponse47 Nope. This should not pass, but the only way it should pass is if it is tied to the SAVE act.

Only one Democrat needs to vote green in order to Impeach Tim Walz.
The evidence is damning. But will anyone be brave enough?

Democrats know that Trump will leave office. Their next demon is anyone who has money. They can't do anything unless they have someone to blame for all of your problems.
It's not their policies mind you. It's the rich.
When you see it, you can never unsee it.

@USAttyPirro Where is the appeal of Boasberg? It needs to be expedited.

Any construction project that has cost overruns of almost 80% over the original construction budget deserves some serious review. And these people are in charge of monetary policy in the United States?

@Dimitris_Efsta @GovKathyHochul 70% of all taxes are paid by this group. NY doesn’t have a revenue problem, they have a spending problem.
You’ve lost billions in taxable income and this plan will drive even more away. That’s not just the wealthy people, it will be jobs and other things that will affect you.

@GovKathyHochul If you own a 10+ Million Home or you make at least 1M you can pay 2% more to help the rest of your neighbors!

If you can afford a multi-million dollar second home in New York City, you can afford to join its residents in supporting the greatest city in the world.

@GovKathyHochul She was just complaining about all the rich people who left and instead of changing course, she decides to double down. The liberal mind for you:

FED: Powell is threatening to stay until 2028. Trump says he is fired in May. The fight is over a $4 billion fraud Powell has been covering up since he blocked Pirro's prosecutors from the Fed building. Tillis is blocking the replacement. Boasberg blocked the probe. Powell built a 3-man wall around a $4 billion scandal & Trump just announced he is tearing it down.

@ChuckGrassley Then attach the save act to it. Stop doing things the voters don’t want. Do your actual job.

Mark Ruffalo goes on the Jim Acosta show and urges Americans "fight an oligarchy that is in full control of our congress and our presidency."

CORRUPTION: In a clear case of obstruction of justice, Sen. Thom Tillis is abusing his power by demanding the DOJ close its investigation into the Fed Chair and the four billion dollar renovation scandal at the Fed in exchange for lifting his hold on Trump's Fed nominee Kevin Warsh. Senator Thune must not let a sitting Senator use his power to obstruct justice.

Thank you for shining a light.

The Senate is continuing to confirm @POTUS’ judicial nominees at a record pace with today’s passage of Christopher Wolfe to serve as a federal judge in Waco.
I was proud to join @SenTedCruz in recommending him to serve on the federal bench given his wealth of experience upholding the rule of law as a State District Judge, & I look forward to seeing the good work he’ll do in this new role.

Pope Leo is receiving massive criticism after appearing to promote an “alliance” between Muslims and Catholics during his trip to Algeria, not only going shoeless and signing the Golden Book inside Algeria’s Grand Mosque, but also declaring it a “space prosper to God.”

@HarmeetKDhillon this law will
Be challenged right? It has to be unconstitutional as it would remove the voters rights and set aside the electoral college. (In my untrained view)

@WhiteHouse @POTUS No. This should not be pushed through without the save act attached
