I don’t understand absolutists. Full of anger and lack of forgiveness keeps people stuck in the past. Sometimes a hypocrite is just a person trying to change.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen.

Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

I mean, I’m not 100% sure @karaswisher.bsky.social is wrong on this.
Again, the only possible explanation is that MTG was recently visited overnight by three ghosts.
BASH: We have seen these attacks from the president at other people. It's not new. And I haven't heard you speak out about it until it was directed at you.

MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: I think that's fair criticism. And I would like to say, humbly, I'm sorry for taking part in the toxic politics.

This is a great clip.
If you need me, tap me on the shoulder. I’ll be happily working all day listening to this on a loop.

Why are we not fighting by their sides?? I cannot understand how the evil people in the White House can support murders like Putin and MBS.
2:43 am in Kyiv.
The awful attack continues.
I don’t want to repeat the same words.
I’ll write to you in the morning –
I hope it comes.

My theory on why @schumer.senate.gov had some of the safest Dems vote to overturn the shutdown. The Epstein files will be released. The President will lose support bc it is worse than people think. Then we go back to a gerontocracy supported by oligarchs. They keep power. Fire them all.

Chicago, the city of my youth & my heart, is beautiful and resilient. It is being terrorized. May justice prevail soon. May all agents of terror be jailed for their crimes. Thank you @govpritzker.illinois.gov for protecting it.

Also, she won because she’s amazing. Congratulations @mayorwu.boston.gov
It got drowned out in all the good news from last night, but Boston Mayor Michelle Wu became the youngest person to be reelected in the city's history.

She ran unopposed because her opponent--Patriots owner Bob Kraft's son--withdrew a few months ago after realizing he had no hope of winning.

Last year after the election, I reflected: "When we fight, we win—but sometimes the fight takes awhile."

Last night, we saw Democratic victories across our nation. I am so proud of these enthusiastic, principled, inspirational leaders who will continue to fight for our nation, ideals, and progress.

Thank you @pelosi.house.gov for your service and for retiring.

Please ask anyone well above retirement age ( @hickenlooper.bsky.social ) to do so too. The next election is one to pass the torch to others like @neguse.house.gov. The number of Dems dying in office is not something to be proud of.

We will know we have reached parity when we can have 9 women justices on our Supreme Court and a President who happens to be a woman. If gender really doesn’t matter then the thought of woman majorities should not bother you.
America’s still terrified of powerful women in politics.

It’s pure misogyny baked into the system. Add race to the mix and it’s on a whole different level of hate that most won’t even admit. Time to get over that shit!

Let’s take a step forward on Tuesday.

Nothing makes me angrier than excuses for child marriage.

If Epstein’s victims were in some states in the U.S., parents could be paid off and the child could just have been married off to their rapist. Poof, legal state-sanctioned pedophilia.

Did you know there is another Dem candidate in Maine people could consider?

Progressive and, so far, no questionable tattoos nor inconsistent behavior v words.
I've been getting a lot of questions about tattoos, so time to fess up — I have one.

I got this tattoo a few years ago as a reminder of what hope and a positive vision can do in our politics. And yes, I knew what it was when I got it.

When I was mayor of Mpls, I was on the leading edge of something people didn’t want to name — a new wave of harassment toward women in public office.

New research shows women mayors face far more harassment and threats than men.
