The supreme irony of my career: During the 2022 campaign, the GOP bludgeoned me as a socialist with a hard-on for an open border.

Now I’m here in the Senate demanding a secure border and they won’t take yes for an answer.

Who wants an open border now, @senategop?

Trump’s lawyers make a point of always referring to their client as “President Trump.” It seems the judges of the DC Circuit find this conceit every bit as annoying as I do.

@AlliFlowers He needs to be humbled with 1001 hours of community service, such as working in soup kitchens for the homeless & picking up trash n sleeping in a jail cell at night when he's done. Drug tested 3x a week. And ordered to payback every red cent he stole. Fuck this guy. #worthless #football

@AlliFlowers

About time --- but what about jail time...

Oh... "White collar crime" - no time in jail... #Sure

@AlliFlowers that’s pretty sad.
American “hero”, accused of welfare fraud.

@AlliFlowers@talkedabout.social Stealing from the poorest people in the state to build a university a sports stadium. Utterly despicable.

And I'll bet the people the money was supposed to go to will never see a penny of the $730,000 interest.

@AlliFlowers Favre has a net worth of $100 million.There was no need for him to steal from the poor. He disgusts me. Glad he is not getting away with this, but wondering why, in addition to repaying the money, he didn't also receive a fine. 🤔

You used to be called an alarmist for suggesting GOP anti-abortion laws would cause women to face prison time for experiencing miscarriages. Now that the harsh realities of Republicans' anti-abortion policies are clear to everyone, it's time to speak up in our communities about how we can restore reproductive freedom. act.indivisible.org/lte/write-

With a little help from my husband, I have covered the rest of my right shoulder and chest with numbing cream and plastic wrap. That means 1 hour until time for more color to be added to my . One more visit scheduled in February, and one in March. Hopefully, that will do it.

@AlliFlowers @dukepaaron
What a dumb SOB. He could have signed up for another couple commercials to cover that. They guy walked on water here in WI, even after his drug and sex scandals. He did the one thing many people can't forgive: Stole from little poor kids. Now his name is mud.

The #Trump campaign has also attempted to condemn fmr aides who worked for his rivals during the #GOP nomination fight & have twisted arms demanding endorsements, telling lawmakers that Trump will remember exactly when they backed him.

“MAGA disowns her & anyone else that associates/works with her,” read a recent Trump campaign social media message targeting the Trump campaign’s 2020 comms director for working last year to elect #DeSantis. “TRAITOR!”

2/ Pagliery cont'd:

It's notable that Justice Engoron is demanding explanations from Trump's lawyers—but carefully cautions them "not to violate any of your professional ethics or obligations."

We're talking about lies here. Lies under oath. And there are serious consequences.

What we're seeing here is how a company that lied to banks... allegedly had its executive lie in court... & lawyers work around those lies.

👉🏼Trump isn't just losing his bank fraud case. His entire orbit is unraveling👈🏼

It turns out that campaigning on forced pregnancy does more harm than good. US maternal mortality is skyrocketing while it is dropping around the world. And in states where forced pregnancy is the law, doctors and women are leaving the state and many hospitals are no longer offering maternity care. vox.com/24056692/abortion-roe-

Involvement in municipal politics is the vote most likely to directly impact your quality of life personally.

In too many cities, the real estate developers & corrupt local politicians run city operations.

Want a livable city?
Get involved in your municipality.

Once again, the tribes lead the way in #Oklahoma. Ironically, our governor is a tribal member.
