The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

Speaker Johnson has literally said he's "not promising anyone anything."

For once, I believe him.

From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - we’ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president.

The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

Just getting dinner onto the table for the kiddos, will deal with this later.
Trump: "We had a guy named Buttigieg. Boot-edge-edge they say is the best way. Just say two 'edges' like off the edge of a cliff — which is where they were taking us, by the way."

Pete's having none of this B.S.!
Why is Trump going after America's air traffic controllers, today of all days?

It's one more way to distract from his decision to increase your health insurance premiums."

There’s still time to call senators. Let me explain. Sorry not sorry about the cat. He’s also really upset about this deal.

Yes, and we all need to put in time, not just money. We can't buy the right kind of candidates, we are going to have to be them or build them with our own hands.
Right, the answer isn't to abandon the party to these weasels.

The answer is to flood the party with people who will take it over and transform it.
Hey, a lot of people are talking about changing affiliation from Democratic to Independent.

Let me tell you why you shouldn’t do that in Colorado.

One of the main ways to get a primary challenge candidate on a ballot is to caucus for your party. You need to be registered as a Dem to caucus.

After voting to give billionaires tax breaks and making health care more expensive, Derrick Van Orden has refused to hold a town hall to talk to the voters he works for in a face-to-face conversation. So, I'm heading to Wisconsin to help give the people he's supposed to represent a voice.
Pete Buttigieg to campaign against Derrick Van Orden in La Crosse
Buttigieg, who unsuccessfully ran for president in 2020, is characterizing the event as a response to the Trump administration's policies.

Justice KBJ is a brilliant strategist. She is working the rules to compel timely review of the stay in the SNAP case by both the Circuit Court and by the Supreme Court. This is why knowing which SCOTUS justice has supervision of the Circuit you file in is essential.

Reporter: Trump initially said this project would not interfere with or touch the current structure

Leavitt: Look at the renderings, it’s very clear the East Wing was gonna be modernized

Reporter: Modernizing and tearing down are different things…

This is Priscilla Williams-Till, a cousin of Emmett Till. She’s running for the U.S. Senate against GOP incumbent Cindy Hyde-Smith who infamously joked about attending a lynching in 2018.

RETWEET and LIKE if you support Williams-Till for the U.S. Senate in Mississippi!

The pro-Israel lobby have truly weaponised antisemitism. And as a sociologist I can tell you criticising this authoritarian government of Netanyahu & the 70 years of settler expansion is NOT ANTISEMITISM.

You are 100% within your rights to criticise the Israeli government.

For almost four decades, Nancy Pelosi has served the American people and worked to make our country better. No one was more skilled at bringing people together and getting legislation passed – and I will always be grateful for her support of the Affordable Care Act.
