"You wouldn't come to this committee and say something you couldn't prove. I know. I know you wouldn't do that.

"But you did."

Devastating.
GLASHEEN: Antifa is our primary concern right now. That's the most immediate violent threat we're facing

BENNIE THOMPSON: Where is antifa headquartered?

GLASHEEN: ... ... ... we are building out the infrastructure right now

THOMPSON: What does that mean?

The eviction notice was taped to my door today.

I have to file an answer or pay within 7 days.

Contractors haven’t been told to go back to work yet.

Please help. Donate. And share.

We can’t be homeless. We can’t lose the pets. We are so scared.

This stands in *sharp* contrast to their approach on immigration, which has all too frequently ended up with the undocumented under the bus.
When it's come time to vote, Democrats this Congress have been pretty consistent about holding the line on trans rights. This is good, should be acknowledged, and is a testament to the pressure placed on them from the grassroots.

Trump’s secret police apparatus — replete with ski masks & officers not identifying themselves as actual law enforcement — is destructive for law enforcement’s credibility & democracy overall.

It has to stop. I’m authoring legislation to stop it, but law enforcement also needs to self-police.

A UW professor recently called Washington State “a tax haven like the Cayman Islands.”

What did he mean?

Hey folks. I know there's a lot going on right now, but I'd really appreciate it if you read this piece I wrote on the perils of raising an autistic child during the era of RFK Jr. and his campaign of insane conspiracies and cruel scare tactics geared toward people on the spectrum.

While people are struggling to pay their bills, this Republican spending bill will raise the cost of health care and take away the health care that millions of people count on in order to give massive tax breaks to billionaires and big corporations.

It's the story you've been waiting for: Here's what I was able to turn up about "Discreet Care," the bizarre website offering abortion "concierge" services—for a $1,200 fee.
In April, a strange website appeared, offering abortion "concierge" services. In May, it started contacting clinics.

"If you are paying us to coordinate for you, we will provide certified, safe clinics in our network who treat you like a Princess, 🙂” the organization wrote to a secret shopper.
A Mysterious Group Contacted Abortion Clinics Offering Help. Is it a Scam, an Anti-Abortion Scheme, or Both?
Discreet Care claims to provide “concierge” services like appointment booking and travel planning, but it appears to put abortion seekers at risk.

There has long been zero fucking excuse for Senate Dems to cede the power they have to slow or stop that body’s work from proceeding and now there is less than zero
House Democrats need to bring articles of impeachment against Kristi Noem, while Senate Democrats need to bring that chamber to a fucking halt.

I don’t often endorse posts with F*bombs, but if there ever was a time to let it out, this is it.
Please listen, then find a rally scheduled for your locale, and join me in making our voices heard for ‘No Kings Day.’ (Even if it’s the F*word.)
