This is why I support @jamestalarico for Senate in Texas. He understands the moment requires people who are willing to get uncomfortable and fight. He understands that rolling over today to get people some SNAP benefits immediately will not ultimately protect them from this Regime.
This moment demands fighters, not folders.

We need more leaders like Senator Warren who truly understand the stakes for our citizens and our country.
I will not support a deal that does nothing to make health care more affordable.

We are in a health care emergency. A simple one-year extension of these tax credits would cost less than Donald Trump’s $40 billion bailout for Argentina.

A vote for this bill is a mistake.

This is reprehensible. @schumer.senate.gov needs to go. They didn't see this coming from the Republicans? That kind of stupidity = unfit to serve.

The median age of first time home buyers reached a record of 40 years. It was 33 years in 2020.

It's up to Democratic candidates to take note and start working on bold solutions to offer people.

Premiering November 16, 2025. I went to event with Ken Burns this summer in which we saw a clip from each episode. It is just incredible. He started the project in 2015 which shows how much time and effort was put into it.

Not saying that AI doesn't have a place in the legal work. But if AI is drafting your brief to the court, and you are not thoroughly checking it's statements and legal basis, this is negligence. Your clients could have used AI. They were smart enough to hire you.

What an amazing actress and human. I remember her in the original Godfather film, and so many other great roles. Gone too soon for her young adult children.

What a stain our country. The way to heal relations with Native Americans is to acknowledge a wrong doing and then take steps to make it right. This is the opposite of that. The Regime is doubling down on the wrongful violence perpetrated at Wounded Knee.

Meanwhile, an ICE officer pulls a gun on innocent bystanders — in Hyattsville, MD. This is happening in America. Right now.

What are we doing about this? It MUST stop. @SenateDems @HouseDemocrats
