Booker once again proving to us how much of a fake progressive he was. He’s probably getting a good laugh out of this vote over lunch with Fetterman today.

Democrats are not a political party, they’re a fundraising organization.

The 2025 earnings tax cap for social security is $176k.

If those richest among us, like Elon who makes billions per year, had to pay social security tax on a larger percentage of their earnings, or on all of it like those of us making less than $176k annually, the system would easily be solvent in perpetuity. The only reason it’s potentially at risk is because rich assholes have lobbied successfully in order to not pay into it.

Yet another prime example of why we must get money out of politics to preserve democracy. End the legalized bribes.

Love to see it, the very least Manchin deserves is to face actual constituents and squirm for his reprehensible actions.

My guy who shoved the protester near the beginning deserves assault charges, full stop.

Obviously Trump would do this.

You can thank AG Merrick Garland for allowing this to happen, who did jack shit for 2 years until finally tapping in Jack Smith to actually do something to hold the traitor in chief accountable.

What a cunt. Is it too early to waterboard him with frack juice?

Ah yes, the time-honored defense of “…it’s just a prank bro!”

Typical Dem - bad at politics, abysmal messaging, just there to say “oops the repugs did it again, darn if only we could have raised more money and done something to stop them!”

To Harris’ credit she has attempted to fight for women’s healthcare access, women’s inclusion in STEM, etc…she just sucks at telling anyone about it. And the rumors about how she treats her staff are super cringe if true.

Considering trump lost over 60 court cases for not being able to produce a single shred of evidence of election fraud, I’m afraid the answer is no, the republicans do not in fact have any idea what facts are. And they love to cry about it.

Is it confusing when he is honest or what? I don’t get it. Even a broken clock can be right twice per day.

Trump and other republicans in government power staged an attempted coups on Jan 6. It’s not a conspiracy theory or anything, I didn’t even realize this was debated, it’s literally what happened.
