For millions of us, this was the first time we ever saw Rob Reiner. …When he became “Meathead” on “All in the Family.”

He was brilliant from Day One.

Trump's predatory regime refuse to offer these military families the financial relief they deserve.

New Yorkers are tired of being asked to believe in a system that has delivered little for them. They want a politics that can see the scale of the crisis, and actually start to tackle it.

This is the President of the United States threatening to kill members of Congress because they told our members of the military to refuse illegal orders from any commanding officers.

Do you really think a Department of Justice that lies to judges about grand jury indictments is going to be open and honest about the Epstein Files?

Don’t forget this lil chestnut
Her Jan. 6 comments/actions were indeed very reprehensible, but most irksome, horrifying was when she chased, berated & harassed the Parland parent, David Hogg, in DC.

Shouting "LIAR" at Obama during his address to Congress stands out too.

She is an opportunist, and a Christo Fascist. The worst.

The guy claiming to want to preserve the “light” of consciousness cut food to poor and starving people around the world. That seems pretty “dark” to me.

The only reason we know anything about the Epstein files is because the survivors refused to give up.

This release is about the the bravery & tenacity of the survivors who continue to fight for justice in a system seeking to crush, silence, and erase them.

This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.

Senate Democrats need to hold the line. No healthcare, no deal.

Mainers want a Democratic Party that fights for them, not one that rolls over.

When we fight, we win.

Even when SNAP benefits are paid in full, families are still struggling to afford groceries as prices climb.

Zohran Mamdani is pushing for local food security solutions, because no one should have to wonder where their next meal will come from.

"Hope is not blind optimism or uncritical belief in a political savior. Hope, to me, means the ability to imagine a better world is possible and then work to build it brick by brick. It is, as @prisonculture.bsky.social says, not an emotion but a discipline—one we must practice every single day."

We the m-f’in people
They’ll insist this is a
one-off victory — something that can only happen in New York & nowhere else.

They’re wrong.

New York is the world financial capital — home of Wall Street & billionaires from across the globe.

If everyday people can defeat oligarchs here, we can defeat oligarchy anywhere.
