Avelo is using one of its ICE planes (painted white so it won’t hurt the brand) to fly pro-athlete women.
As I reported in @prospect.org, this plane had an emergency landing Nov 13. Migrants regularly soil themselves in their seats bc ICE guards won’t let them get up.

It’s getting harder and harder for people to afford rent, no matter how hard they work.
One example: Rhea, a mother who often works 2AM-8PM to support her kids after fleeing domestic violence, still can’t secure housing.
When asked if she could work any harder, she says “if I could I would.”

Voting to fund the government means you voted to fund everything the government is doing. That's the whole point. It's not about some narrow this or that on the margins. You own the whole enchilada, you're saying "yes, this overall package for everything the government's doing is acceptable to me."

To repeat: I have studied a lot of cases of autocratization over the past 15 years. Wrote about them, taught about them, consulting about them.
I do not recall an opposition so apathetic, ignorant, and inept as the @democrats.org. They cling to their power, rather than fight for democracy. Shame.

Schumer & Jeffries should have the integrity to resign from their positions in leadership. They've failed, badly. Either they cannot control their caucuses or they're lying & secretly pushed this vote through behind the scenes.
Either way, their betrayal of the American people is indefensible.

Tuesday’s elections were NOT about the Democratic Party.
They were about candidates focusing on the wants and needs of their constituents; about new leaders prepared to fight; about representation in every sense of the word.
Party leaders haven’t absorbed this yet.
