NO DMs! Lifelong moderate Democrat. No matter what happens the next 4 years, we can have love and community. “In a world so rife with vulgarity, with brutality and violence, love exists. I’m grateful to know that it exists.” Maya Angelou

Trump calling anyone "piggy" is akin to Al Capone calling a jaywalker a "hardened criminal". Or actually Trump calling anyone a criminal.

Why did not a single male reporter who were standing next to the president and the female reporter he called "piggy" say a word to the president about this and call him out then and there? Those who keep quiet in these moments are part of the problem.

Not only is what Trump and GOP doing with ICE morally reprehensible and against our constitution, it is also politically stupid. Every day Americans see ICE in the news is another day they see Trump and GOP uninterested in the main issues they care about.

because the minute adults start defending predators by defending the age of a child, you’re not protecting the truth, you’re protecting the predator.”
Sound up! 🔥🔊

NEW: California now has nearly 17,000 megawatts of battery storage – reaching one-third of the way to our 2045 goal.
We're deploying more battery storage than any state in America, building a stronger grid, cutting pollution, and securing a safer future for our nation.

What does freedom mean to you?
Have you asked your low info voter friends that?
Have you told them what it means to you? Does it mean masked men brutalizing random people—guns in your face—tear gas on your street?
Have you ever shared a video about #ICELawlessness?
Silence is complicity.

Don’t fully agree w/my Gov; the shutdown was badly hurting too many of us. That said, Newsom’s latest zinger is 🔥: “I'm not pleased that, in the face of this invasive species that is Donald Trump, who's completely changed the rules of the game, that we're still playing by the old rules of the game."
