🚨Trump's EPA to abandon Biden-era limits on fine-particle air pollution, which causes heart & lung disease & thousands of deaths

Republicans support Trump because he provides distraction to help them achieve decades-long dreams of transferring billions to the top & dismantling a century of progress

It’s awful to hear that National Guard troops were shot after they were needlessly-and possibly illegally-deployed to Washington DC

Tomorrow many of us will sit down with our families for Thanksgiving-while they will likely be in hospital beds

So consider taking just one moment to think of them
My prayers are with the National Guard members injured in today’s senseless shooting. Grateful for the officers and first responders who moved quickly. There is no place for this kind of violence in our country.

Holy shit. So Elon decides it would be nice to know what region of the world people are posting from. So they add that little feature.
2 hours later they figure out that many Trump supporters with millions of followers are posting from other countries. Surprise!
That "feature" is now gone.

This is who she was.
Passionate in her beliefs. Fiercely loyal to her friends. Never afraid to let you know exactly where she stood. The best.

Fun Fact: I remember arguing with her over which of us hated Piggy the most. I was sure I did. She disagreed. It remains unresolved...
Carrie Fisher was the blueprint.
Protect your people. Call out the predators.

@schumer.senate.gov — Everyone said, hold the line on the Govt funding for the subsidies, and you whipped 8 Dem votes from reps who weren’t up for reelection anyway—

The failure is yours - we need new leadership

It’s disgusting that it took a congressional action to release these files instead of just accepting the women told the truth. This entire situation has been horrible toward women and shows that we still don’t believe them. A rich man can commit rape.

I want to take a moment to thank the entire Elias Law Group team who worked on the Texas redistricting case as well as our fearless clients. The thirteen Black and Latino voters we represented stood up to challenge Texas's unprecedented mid-decade redistricting. We all ow them a debt of gratitude.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

A normal reaction to today's news, dear Nancy, would be to express shock and horror at the significant possibility that the president of the United States is a child molester.

ICE agents wear masks for the same reason that Klan members wear hoods. They know what they are doing is immoral. Pretty straight forward.

Why They Mask
Veteran ICE officers know face coverings are a bad look. But they’re not coming off anytime soon.

This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.
