The Pro-Life Party will celebrate the end of abortion resulting in a loss of life saving health care for women. The same party will do absolutely nothing to save the children who are being innocently killed at school. Gun Violence is the LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH in children. It’s never been about life

Sen. Chris Murphy hits Trump:
"He just told his supporters that we should be hung. We should be hung! This isn't like a normal political story. This is perhaps the most reckless, irresponsible thing that he has done all Congress, and it's going to get a lot of us killed. We have kids, you know?"

PLEASE read this one. Kinda required reading. If you agree, which I hope you do, print in color and magnetically attach to your refrigerator. It is marvelous and very clear to all who visit: this is what we stand for. PERIOD.

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

If you know anyone who is still a staunch Trump supporter, even after all this, I would keep them away from any kids this Thanksgiving.

I honestly don’t know what to say anymore. It is overwhelmingly clear at this point that the Republican Party has sold its soul to protect a child rapist, led by wealthy ghouls who will never have enough.
There is only one war, now and forever, and it is the class war. There must be consequences.

The fascists are not inevitable. They're not unstoppable. They're not all powerful. They want you to think that, but millions turned out last month to call their bluff. And millions turned out today to claim our power. We will win.

My expert political opinion is that killing the job market, raising grocery prices, kicking people off their health care, stealing taxpayer money, and trying to starve 40 million Americans is pretty damn unpopular.

Yesterday I voted for the first time in a local election. The Trump regime has taught me to vote blue and never take that right for granted! Grateful for these democracy fighters who inspire @meidastouch.com @thebulwark.com @hcrichardson.bsky.social @ronfilipkowski.bsky.social @rbreich.bsky.social

The AI video Trump posted of himself dumping shit all over America from a plane was metaphorically the most accurate piece of propaganda he’s put out this year.
