Amazing to me that in 2024, we have to remind elected leaders of the US Congress to stop making racist/misogynistic "comments" 'House GOP leaders urge members: Stop making racial comments about Harris " (Politico)

Add to this Trump stmt what he said about Nikki Hailey’s husband who is serving in Africa in the military…what trump said in one day is worse that any Biden gaffe during his entire political career. Promising to break our NATO word is treasonous.

@nkellyIN Unless the Senate Rules have been changed, any Senator can offer a Motion to Recommit to Committee. It isn’t used very often, but I have seen it done to recommit to Rules or to the appropriate fiscal committee. It was used by Senators Garton and Borst back in the “olden days.”

@AttyAbdul You’d have to roll your own cigars and make your own rum. Never happen!

@nkellyIN Not just irony. It’s HIGH-pocrisy. They think they know better than me. They know what kind of health care I can receive; they know what books my children should read; they know how I should raise and educate my children. Truth is they know very little; they don’t speak for me.

@AGToddRokita …unless you are a woman or LGBTQ+ or vulnerable populations or on and on. “The Left” are Patriots, too, Mr. Rokita, and you were elected to serve all Hoosiers.

@TheDestinyWells @AGToddRokita Rokita tries to be as hateful and divisive as the leader of his cult, Trump. But he isn’t quite bright enough to pull it off. He just sounds childish.

@HillaryClinton I grew up in the SF Bay Area, with Sen. Feinstein as a guiding light for young women like me. He achieved much and chose public service for all the right reasons. The US Senate needs more women of intelligence and courage like her. RIP, Senator.

@TheDestinyWells How a man dresses is way down the list. I prefer a man with an educated brain, a great sense of humor and a compassionate heart.

There was nothing simple about the 50's, 60's and 70's when I was growing up. The only thing simple about Haley's tweet is her simpleton explanation of that tumultuous time.

@LibbyCierzniak I read all the Nancy Drew books at night under the covers so my parents didn't know I was still awake. I don't know what I would have done without her courage and smarts to inspire me.

On the left, Republican Senator Mike Lee feigns outrage during the State of the Union when President Biden suggests that some Republicans want to cut Social Security and Medicare. On the right, Mike Lee says he wants to get rid of Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.

The broken-record nihilism of the MAGA buffoons leaned right into the #POTUS contrast here. Better angels working hard to heal, unite and build back America vs. Jokers who just want to see the world burn (apologies to Alfred). Literally the perfect foil.

Fascinating speech dynamics. Lots of boos & cheers, Rs heckling Biden & him going with it. Biden’s sarcastic response to GOP boos on Medicare & Social Security. This is not the old SOTU
