Today they interviewed a Dem who won their seat in Trump district only 3 accomplished it. Very powerful message said that giving the DC message-Top down is not working. It has to be from the people/voters up. It requires listening to what their constituents think is important & crafting policies!

The fight going on in the Democratic Party right now is not between hard left, left and moderate. It’s between those who want to fight and those who want to cave. And Team Fight stretches across all ideological aspects of the Party. Misread this at your own peril.

I'll repeat it again: Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy were never elected to Congress and should have ZERO say in any conversation about the government shutdown.

Dear Bsky: Its apparent that many of you aren't aware of the most impotent gesture in all MAGAtry: The Flipper account.

It poses as a Resister account to gain LIB followers and then flips to its true nature: MAGAt.

They think this is an own. You vetted just fine - they lied.

Good morning and Happy Friday to everyone who has paid into Social Security their entire adult life and is determined to make sure Republicans keep their filthy fucking hands off of our benefits.

Same goes for our Medicare and the Affordable Care Act.

Last year, when I was at MSNBC, I did a 10-minute deep-dive into RFK Jr's anti-vaxxer role in the measles outbreak that killed dozens and dozens of kids in Samoa.

I hope every Senator voting in his confirmation process for HHS knows about this crucial and awful story:

So glad this place is blossoming! And so glad to be experiencing its blossoming with all of you. 🦋
