Mark Kelly is not going to be silenced by the sick buffonery of Trump and Hegseth, two deeply unserious people. They picked a fight with the wrong guy.
Wow. Mark Kelly’s Devastating Takedown of Trump.

VOTE FOR THE CANDIDATE THAT WILL WORK TO EARN YOUR VOTE

Tomorrow is election day, TN-7, and I'm humbly asking for your vote. I promise to be accessible and only beholden to the voters of the district, never donors or special interests. Polls open at 7 AM & close at 7 PM. Let's go out and win this!

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

70 years ago today, Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat, sparking the Montgomery bus boycott. We all must continue to carry her legacy, fighting for equality and speaking up against injustice.

96% of the highest-paid workers in the US have paid sick days.

Just 38% of the lowest-paid workers get them — including the thousands of retail workers working this holiday weekend.

Only in America do we call working people ‘essential’ but deny them paid sick leave.

Oh, dear ... no snails for me this Christmas. (I visited a snail farm once ... I thought that they'd be roaming in a field like cows, but they lived under wooden boxes and only came out at night!)

French farm has €90,000 worth of escargot snails stolen
The break-in was "a real blow", says L'Escargot Des Grands Crus, which was preparing deliveries for the holiday season.

This tired, deeply-damaged man is so needy. He has to have references to him being president on his hat, on his shirt, and on a golf-framed placard next to his overcooked cheeseburger he's almost too-out-of-it to eat.

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?

We went from a country that defended others from being invaded for their natural resources, to a country that is now threatening to invade others for their natural resources.

Trump’s golf trips have cost taxpayers nearly $71 million since January and could exceed $300 million this term, according to HuffPost. His first-term total was $151.5 million.

When he’s gone, I know there will be a lot to do, but can we make sure the living rose garden gets restored?

On Thanksgiving, Donald Trump is on his way to his Florida country club to play golf on our taxpayers dime while the two members of the National Guard are in the hospital fighting for their lives because of his orders that sent them to Washington DC!

I don’t get why Trump’s raging at the New York Times or why he called that reporter ugly. Honestly, they went easy on him, skipping the part where the anger fits the dementia pattern.

Signs of dementia: memory problems, confusion, trouble following conversations, sudden anger, personality shifts.

My alma mater, George Washington HS in Northeast Philly, has always been a place which enabled immigrants to join and fulfill the American Dream. So I'm thrilled today to learn of Kateryna Sobolevska, who fled Ukraine at 14, learned English at GWHS, and is now top of her class and applying to Ivies.
This teen fled war in Ukraine for a new life in Philly. Now she’s at the top of her class.
Living and learning in the U.S. has changed Kateryna Sobolevska, who fled Ukraine at age 14. She's now a senior at George Washington High School in Northeast Philadelphia.

This is not just a current political issue. Charging & punishing these particular perpetrators is vital to keeping the fight against the ongoing abuse & killing of women & children by men in the spotlight. "Me Too" was only a start.

„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.
