The GOP knows that immigrants add to our country's GDP, pay taxes, commit less crime on avg than those born in the US, and there are jobs available (record low unemployment, still some worker shortages)
But the GOP encourages bigotry toward them because it helps them get votes.
Matt Rosendale has dropped out of the Senate race in Montana after getting his 20 year old aid pregnant, demonstrating one of the very few times that a man's career options have been limited by an unplanned pregnancy.
15-year-old falls to his death on first day at roofing job in Alabama
This is the type of stuff child labor laws were put into place to prevent, but Republicans have been on a years long push to roll back child labor laws
Tuberville Says US "Forced" Putin to Invade Ukraine
This is just straight up Putin propaganda. And to make his case for this propaganda, Putin said that his actions were like when Poland "forced" Hitler to invade it in WW2
Tommy Tuberville is a traitor

One Detail in Trump's 'Golden Shower' Denial Raises Questions
Trump denied being with 4 hookers. Nobody before said the number of hookers. Where did Trump get the number 4 from?
Elon Musk’s charity broke tax laws as donations came up short
His "charity" is required to actually donate at least 5% of its assets. He hasn't even met that low bar, and half his donations have gone to his own companies or to benefit his children.

Reminder: Laura Ingraham on Jan 6 was busy texting Mark Meadows begging him to get Trump to tell the rioters to stop. Now she's on Fox News saying Jan 6 was fake.
Unfckingbelievable. This network needs to be sued into bankruptcy.

Great analogy, Dinesh. Let's treat guns like cars and require testing, licenses, registration, insurance, safety features, age limits for operation, limits on use, revocation of license for breaking of laws, etc.
Sound good?
Everything Republicans accuse Hunter Biden of doing while he was a private citizen, Jared Kushner did while working in the White House.
Every Republican accusation is a confession.

Lenders forgave over $280 million in unpaid debts from Trump. Don't believe this nonsense that the banks were happy with how their deals went with Trump. And, no, they would not lend $ to him again.
Donald Trump had $250 million of debt canceled by Deutsche Bank. I assure you, debt cancellation is a real thing, Joni.
Also, Biden is doing it all through the parameters of the Higher Education Act of 1965, which has been reauthorized and amended by Congress several times.
Nearly 1.7 million Texans lose Medicaid as state nears end of “unwinding”

For those MAGA morons saying they prefer Putin over Biden..
Move to Russia, where the economy is in tatters and hundreds of thousands of their young men are being forced to die in trench warfare by a violent dictator who irrationally dreams of remaking a long-lost empire.
Go.
MAGA going hard after the AARP because the AARP fights against cuts to Social Security and Medicare.
MAGA never ceases to amaze me with the depths they are willing to sink to.
Trump adviser Stephen Moore: The AARP is one of the most evil organizations in America. They have got to go

He should instead be spending his time worrying about the fact that Oklahoma is rated 48th out of 50 states in 8th grade standardized testing proficiency.
But, I guess, actually doing his job won't get him airtime on Fox News.
former Trump economic adviser Steve Moore on Fox Business: "It is true that the United States today has the strongest economy. There is no question about it."
America is currently producing more oil than at any time during the Trump administration.
Do Republican politicians ever do any actual work or do they think their job is to just stand up and lie to the American public all day?
Wisconsin about to get legal marijuana, expanded Medicaid, better roads, women's right to choose, and more funding for schools, among other things the ridiculous Scott Walker/GOP gerrymander has been preventing for years, against the wishes of the majority of the state's voters.
BREAKING: WI Gov. Tony Evers (D) breaks a Republican gerrymander, signs new legislative maps into law:
"Wisconsin, when I promised fair maps, I damn well meant it ... People should get to choose their elected officials, not the other way around.”

Why? Why does anyone who works for a living ever vote Republican. The Republican party hates you if you work for a living.

Assuming he's talking about the Jan 6 committee, I'd point out that Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, both Republicans, did just that. We all watched them. I'd also point out that there weren't any other Republicans on the committee because Kevin McCarthy refused to take part in it.
@AdamKinzinger
They told a willful lie that cost people their lives, conned millions of people out of millions of dollars, and endangered a 200 year tradition of peaceful transfer of power in America.
Their defense: "it was just a prank, bro"

Republican candidates for the House and the Senate will now get almost no support from the RNC so that it can all be siphoned to the Trumps.
Lindsey Graham predicted that Trump would destroy the GOP, and that take continues to age like fine wine.

Katy Tur said Trump was a legend in NYC? Lol. Trump was a legend in NYC the same way Bernie Madoff was. Everyone in that city has known for decades that Trump was a giant fraud. Even Rudy Giuliani knew. Rudy just thought maybe he could get in on some of the fraud.

,456 of WTF is wrong with Katy Tur:
"Is this $364 million judgement against trump fair?"
Also, her hero-worship sound bite: "trump was firmly rooted in the fabric of New York City, he was a legend in this city, trump and New York City were synonymous." 🤢
Nancy Mace translation: 'You are shining a light on my hypocrisy and lack of principles, so I am going to use the fact that I am a woman as a way to feign indignation, which also illustrates my lack of principles'
Wow -- Nancy Mace gets mad when George Stephanopoulos asks her how she can support Trump despite claiming to care about rape victims.
"You are trying to shame me this morning, and I think it's disgusting," she says.
But Stephanopoulos holds his ground!

Unfckingbelievable. This network needs to be sued into bankruptcy.
I hope everyone realizes what this would mean. The RNC, which is supposed to help elect Republican candidates, would become a slush fund for Trump. They will steal as much of that $ as they can, and other Republican candidates will get nothing.
And I bet they'll let it happen.
Joni Ernst retweets a story about how the border patrol apprehended someone, and she says the border is open.
Joni, if the border was open, he wouldn't have been apprehended.
Biden's open border is an open invitation for Iran-backed terrorists to infiltrate our homeland.
This will only get worse until Biden secures the border.

After refusing to pass the bipartisan negotiated border bill, Republicans are back to doing their photo ops at the border, because that's all they actually want: a campaign issue.
If Biden were serious about securing the border these materials to build the wall wouldn’t be laying here at the border rotting away. Pass H.R. 2 and build the wall.

No, under Trump, Iran began producing and acquiring more weapons because Trump withdrew the US from a treaty that prevented them from doing so.

Republicans like Tom Cotton and Laura Ingraham are currently freaking out about marijuana while completely ignoring whatever it is Don Jr is on (definitely not marijuana)

It's funny how you guys always use fake pictures of Trump. It's also fitting, because the Trump you admire is an imaginary version of him, just like these pictures

To be clear, Trump didn't just want Ukraine to investigate Biden, Trump withheld military aid from Ukraine in an attempt to extort them to do so.
Also, Biden has not personally ordered a single investigation of Trump.

DeSantis doesn't spend his time smearing Republicans because he's too busy smearing schoolteachers, librarians, public health officials, the LGBTQ community, voters, immigrants, people who criticize him, businesses who criticize him, etc, etc.

You know how you could get women to talk about all those other things instead of abortion, Rep Gonzales? You could stop taking away the right for women to choose what's best for themselves.

Traitors like MTG should be expelled from Congress. Calling for the dissolution of the United States should disqualify one from serving in the United States House of Representatives.
A year and a half ago, Marjorie Taylor Greene got in a fake jail cell with Brandon Straka, who was pretending to be a Jan 6 prisoner, but had actually avoided jail time in real life by ratting out other Jan 6 rioters he was with, and she pretended to pray for him
@atrupar
This guy is polling at 2%, has zero political resume, and has a voice that could be used to torture prisoners. Why is Chuck Todd treating him like a serious candidate?
How on Earth can you rationalize not putting a bill up for a vote that just passed the Senate with 70 votes?
This is insanity.
Mike Johnson is the worst Speaker of the House I can remember, and I remember Newt Gingrich
Speaker Johnson told reporters he is not planning to put the Senate’s supplemental package on the floor.
“I certainly don’t,” Johnson said when asked if he plans to put the $95.3 billion package on the House floor. “Right now, we’re dealing with the appropriations process, we…
Great job, Mike Johnson. Great job, Republicans. Great job, Trump. You all are destroying our country's standing in the world all so you can curry favor with a murderous Russian dictator.
Prime Minister of Japan addressing US Congress shocked that the US is ceding it's position of Arsenal of Democracy, no longer backing democratic allies, bowing to Russia.

Only a grifter would think "moving merch" is a good attribute for the President of the United States to have. Personally, I think the ability to get legislation passed that helps Americans, and to rally the world against dangerous threats, are better attributes.
