Homeland Security doesn’t grasp the fact that the first Thanksgiving was about making “room at the table” for European “invaders.”

There is zero, repeat, zero chance that Trump will release the Epstein Files unless they are 100% sanitized and totally doctored.

Here's your chance to do something about the people being starved and beaten in Broadview ICE custody.
Share this post, and I'll donate $1 to the Midwest Immigration Bond Fund (www.mibfc.org).
And if you make a donation to them, let me know how much and I'll match it 1:1.

In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work."
The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting.
And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

They caved. Senate Democrats caved. Their voters demanded just one very simple thing: FIGHT. Dammit, just FIGHT. Instead, they caved.

If this is true, then Democrats will get screwed over.
If you are voting for this, based on a promise from the party who has broken pretty much every promise to date, then you deserve to be voted out.
I have my doubts though that this is true.

Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.

The majority of Americans are good. We have heart. We have compassion. When we see others struggle, we want to lend a hand.
For too long, we’ve been divided and pitted against each other by those who crave obscene wealth and power.
Let’s change that. One election at a time.

Who could have foreseen after everything that went down Nov 2020-Jan 2021 that if we put this guy back in power we would never have another normal election while he was president? Voters in Nov 2024 took a blowtorch to American democracy.

A huge chunk of the public health and justice advances of the last century have been achieved simply via measuring and communicating information. Authoritarian regimes can rapidly reverse these advances.
Ignorance isn't bliss, I'm afraid. More like ignorance is cancer
The Trump administration has put a stop to EPA rules that would have required more than 130 industrial facilities to install air monitors to measure pollution.
