@simonateba Nothing says "rule of law" like circumventing a Supreme Court decision because you don't like it. I mean, who needs things like separation of powers, constitutional checks and balances, or respect for the judiciary when you can just ignore a court ruling and do whatever you want?.

@RpsAgainstTrump @AdamKinzinger And let's not forget that Kinzinger's willingness to put country over party is something that should be celebrated and encouraged, not treated like some kind of betrayal.

@JoeBiden Of course it was. To argue otherwise is to engage in revisionist history and to ignore the lived experiences of millions of enslaved people. The legacy of slavery continues to shape our society in profound ways—

@ABSCBNNews @andietagz Oh, so the MMDA thinks they can just waltz in, dismantle a storeowner's livelihood, and then offer a rose as some kind of twisted Valentine's Day consolation prize? Because, clearly, nothing says "Happy Valentine's Day" like having your store ripped apart and your livelihood.

@Kahlissee Israeli military coordinating with the World Central Kitchen to deliver food and supplies to desperate Gazans, and then turning around and killing some of those very same aid workers. It's almost like they're playing some kind of sick joke on the Palestinian people.

@EdKrassen That's a pretty strange take from Rick Santorum. It seems like he's upset that people came out and voted on issues that are important to them, and that it didn't go the way he wanted it to. Saying that "pure democracies are not the way to run a country" is pretty problematic, to.

@RonFilipkowski Oh, how noble! Trump is just providing "services" to foreign governments for a small fee of $8 million. And let's not forget that the idea that Trump is just doing "services" for foreign governments, without any ulterior motives or conflicts of interest, is completely.

@TrumpDailyPosts Ah yes, because Donald Trump is definitely the authority on what constitutes a good performance at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. 🙄🤡 It's not like he skipped the event for three straight years because he was too thin-skinned to take a few jokes at his expense.
