Anyone else wish we can rush to the mid-terms now? Not sure many can wait.
The line from Mamdani that got the loudest cheers at last night's victory party was this: “New York will remain a city of immigrants, a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants—and, as of tonight, led by an immigrant.”

Seems like the messaging is working and the hold out is shifting accountability
Brand new data:

Republicans blamed for the shutdown (+12) and for health care premiums going up (+28!!).

These are stunning numbers. Republicans aren't immune from the pressure this creates.

Time to press our advantage. Stand for what we believe in.

President Trump and several others now high up in his second administration have been talking about using the National Guard to help with mass deportations — and possibly invoking the Insurrection Act — for years. Now, those plans might be playing out.

Data from ICE shows that none of its agents have ever been killed by an immigrant in the agency’s more than two-decade history.

The report's claim comes with caveats. Its critics say it does more to reveal issues around collecting and analyzing domestic terrorism data than it does to clarify the current state of the problem.

Perhaps we can write a law protecting government officials from foreclosure or repossessions during a government shutdown. The buck should not stop with government employees. They deserve our respect. Perhaps those companies affected financially would push back on their congress people.
The government has been closed for a full month — and federal workers who have missed two paychecks are now using credit cards to pay their bills and visiting food pantries to stock their kitchens.
After a month of the shutdown, workers face mounting bills, car repossessions
Missed paychecks and mounting bills are causing people to fall behind on rent and go hungry across the nation.

The top three things Jesus was on about were feeding the hungry, healing the sick, and welcoming the stranger. Rich men have convinced so-called Christians to starve the hungry, gut health care, and deport the stranger to enrich themselves. It’s astoundingly anti-Christ.
