Removing a monument honoring Black US soldiers has nothing to do with DEI. It’s erasure of history and it’s straight-up racism.

"I would remind my colleagues that this vote is gonna be on your record for longer than Trump is gonna be president."

Trump's declining health is a hard story to find a way into, but Republicans on Capitol Hill see it. And they may start to feel gradually freer.

Khanna: You know, someone said to me, “Well, this backbencher from the House is calling for Schumer to step down.”

I said, “The point is the backbenchers need to come to the front.” Those of us in the back — we need to move to the front. And a new generation of leadership needs to emerge.”

HE LIED just like he'd been taking lessons from a republican. SCHUMER is too weak & dishonest to lead. Some of us won't let go of urgency here. Senate Dems were allowed to do donors' bidding instead of the peoples'.

Newsom is right, they still believe that their old buddies on the right will come around and work with them. They gave Trump everything for a promise to hold a vote.

Those eight and leader Schumer are politically ignorant cowards....

Hegseth's war on "beardos" (soldiers granted waivers to allow having short beards) is a racist move. about 2/3 of the service members given the waiver are Black. The waiver is granted because of a medical diagnosis of pseudofolliculitis barbae (chronic ingrown hairs exacerbated by shaving).

Last night, my neighbor and I were talking about #SNAP. She is a progressive/liberal white lady in her 70s who watches too much mainstream media, and she bought into the myth that there is rampant fraud with SNAP recipients getting money they “don’t deserve.”

I LOVE how this man reclaimed the narrative by refusing the frame he was being offered and he insisted on a more truthful, accurate, reality-based frame.
Elegant.

There's a bipartisan push by some in Colorado's congressional delegation to free a father and children seized by ICE on their way to school in Durango. ICE has not suggested the father committed any crime.

California – this Election Day, vote yes on Prop 50.

California’s Prop 50 says that if Republicans are going to abuse the system to try and hang onto power, we’re going to counteract that abuse and create a level playing field in the midterm elections.

Make a plan to vote yes on Prop 50.

People should realize that the SNAP program was Republican’s idea . They want to use it since they think we the people doesn’t deserve affordable healthcare. Democrats are fighting for our healthcare and our rights. Vote out the Republicans!!! Plain and simple!!!

I spent the entire Biden presidency warning idiotic establishment Senate Dems and Biden who opposed getting rid of the filibuster that Trump and the GOP would come back to power and do it themselves. I hate to say I told you so but… I fucking told you so.
Trump: “…BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT THE DEMOCRATS HAVE GONE STONE COLD “CRAZY,” THE CHOICE IS CLEAR — INITIATE THE “NUCLEAR OPTION,” GET RID OF THE FILIBUSTER AND, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
