This is a 6-minute Republican video outlining Ken Paxton’s corruption. This now “unlisted” YouTube video was repeatedly sent out by the NRSC. It’s devastating.

Under Trump, the highest income Americans are getting wealthier and spending more. The bottom 80% are seeing their wealth eroded by inflation, forcing them to cut back drastically. My @Morning_Joe Chart

American science is at extraordinary risk. NIH has awarded less than half as many grants as it has compared to the past five fiscal years averaged together. 'I thought we were at rock bottom', the official said. 'We are below rock bottom now.'"

It’s bad enough that the U.S. has not achieved any of Trump’s war aims in Iran. Iran’s regime remains, its people oppressed and its nuclear program far from “obliterated.” Three stories in the past week reveal U.S. intel believes Iran’s ability to fight has hardly been degraded.

What will the MAGA crowd do when they find out about Trump’s meeting with the Chinese premier? After all, he is a Xi.

This is insane. The GOP's newly proposed TN Congressional maps would have people in Shelby County all the way to Williamson County—200 miles apart—being "represented" by the same Congressman. It's a blatant, corrupt power grab that would destroy the Black community's and our entire city's voice.
Here is the proposed map for Tennessee redistricting, as just sent out from the Republican Senate press office. #tnleg

Another day, another Republican politician advocating violence against someone with whom she disagrees.
A New York City councilwoman is publicly fantasizing about killing me, and somehow I'm the threat..

Trump, after having a 90 min phone call with Putin, puts out a truth social that he is considering withdrawing all troops from Germany. Something sinister is going on between them. It’s time for “concerned” Republicans to speak out

Presumably, @realDonaldTrump and his DOJ will follow their indictment of James #Comey with the prosecution of Jack Posobiec.
