As a former Texas State Rep, let me be clear: LOCKING Rep. Nicole Collier inside the chamber is beyond outrageous.
Forcing elected officials to sign “permission slips” & take police escorts to leave? That’s not procedure. That’s some old Jim Crow playbook.

If things are going so well for the establishment, why does ONE young Dem mayor nominee scare them so much?

Congress didn’t just lose its power it gave it away. On war, trade, and policy, lawmakers have willingly let the executive branch rule unchecked.

This is not about the merits of Iran’s nuclear program. No president has the authority to bomb another country that does not pose an imminent threat to the US without the approval of Congress. This is an unambiguous impeachable offense.

BREAKING: In a unanimous decision, a federal court of appeals has ruled that Louisiana's law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in all public school classrooms is unconstitutional.
We’ll keep saying it: Public schools are not Sunday schools.

Even our small town of Walla Walla, Washington, had an excellent turnout for our No Kings march. Loved seeing all the positive (and peaceful) energy today.

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

Our incoming president is an unhinged lunatic.
He is fronting for a deranged oligarch who wants to establish a new world order of megalomaniacal oligarchs.
Sorry we screwed up. Again.
Please protect yourselves accordingly.

The only thing worse about the House Ethics committee report saying Matt Gaetz paid an underage girl for sex is the realization that so many other Republicans were ready to hide that shit.
