For some reason Democratic leaders seem to prefer telling voters what they won’t be able to do, rather than what they’d like to do.

Jeffries says not to expect Democrats to pursue Hegseth impeachment over boat strikes

If there's a Fight Club, California demands that @padilla.senate.gov and @schiff.senate.gov step up and join it
Wow — Senators Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, Warren, Markey, Merkley, Heinrich have created an official internal "Fight Club."
They're challenging Schumer & Gillibrand's leadership, arguing the party is using an old, corporate-friendly playbook insufficient to take on Trump or win elections.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.
A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.

In normal times, it would be a major scandal for the President to direct his AG to criminally investigate his political opponents to deflect from his own involvement in a major scandal — and for the AG to immediately announce she is doing it. The Epstein scandal and cover up just got even bigger.

Powerful words--hard to believe that we are still struggling for these basic human rights 80 years later.
81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.
