Cruz looks very happy to be with his fellow criminal insurrectionist. Maybe they can share a prison cell.
Hey, is that Sen. Ted Cruz pictured with Proud Boy convicted of Seditious Conspiracy Enrique Tarrio? Be a real shame if everyone retweeted this.

Keep. It. Up.
Maybe cable news channels can take a tiny break from covering what Trump had for lunch to show the massive crowds of young people flooding into Nashville to demand Republicans pass gun reform. teapawt.net/trublu24/status/164291…

BREAKING: BRAGG CONFIRMS - TRUMP INDICTED. As Trump wrote: I've been "INDICATED." No D.A. will ever accuse him of being too smart for his own good. Now, I believe, the dam has broken and it'll be easier for Special Counsel to indict. FRIDAY'S COUNTDOWN: tinyurl.com/2p94d567

New York is not a money laundromat. Falsifying business records in New York to conceal another crime, including a violation of federal election law, is a felony. Doesn't matter who you are. Do the crime, do the time. law.justia.com/codes/new-yor…

The indictment of a former president is unprecedented. But so too is the unlawful conduct in which Trump has been engaged. A nation of laws must hold the rich and powerful accountable, even when they hold high office. Especially when they do. To do otherwise is not democracy.

This is why, even now, I’ve never succumbed to hubris regarding the dangers of Covid. We REALLY want it to be “just a cold,” but it’s not a cold. It’s neurological, and it’s stealthier than us. Those who have friends with “long Covid” know it’s no joke: scientificamerican.com/artic…
