I haven't read a book in a decade. I am getting a Kindle fire delivered today and need some help. I got a library card yesterday. I'm so ready to read something again. Some sort of mystery. Any suggestions? #books

I have been the subject of many spurious accusations and politically motivated attacks, but this one is in a class by itself. According to Tulsi Gabbard — the nation’s top intelligence official — my refusal to post on Twitter is being reviewed by the Department of Justice as evidence of wrongdoing.
I’m Not panicking. I’m Outraged.

Phang: Good for Pritzker, good for Hochul, good for Newsom—good for these other Democratic governors who are saying, “You know what? F off.” We’re not going to let people in these other states—people who are under attack and trying to do the right thing for their constituents—go without support

Thank you to Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 for showing up and taking a stand this weekend. We loved the signs, so many of them made us laugh. This weekend showed that the resistance is growing and that we have friends everywhere! Scotland the Brave!

It’s pretty obvious they’re going to use Maxwell to absolve Trump so it would be wise for Democrats to get out there and remind everyone — she wasn’t a victim and she wasn’t merely an accomplice in luring girls into Epstein’s trap; she was also allegedly an active participant in these girls’ abuse.

The budget bill contains tens of billions to fund an army of 10,000 more ICE agents. This is a red alert moment for our democracy.

“I canceled Obama’s nuclear inspection program, then I bombed Iran. Now, I am offering them pallets of $30 billion in cash, plus another $6 billion, if they agree to negotiate Obama’s plan. It’s called the Art of the Deal.”

People are surprised that Cuomo isn't dropping out of the general election, but it's actually pretty on-brand for him to ignore the consent of others.

I’m choked up seeing this—it’s shameful.

Iranian refugees got snatched by “immigration agents” dressed like bounty hunters in West LA’s Sawtelle neighborhood.

We’re really about to send them back to a country we just bombed? A regime known for jailing, torturing, and killing its own people?

A sitting Member of Congress calling for an American citizen to be stripped of his citizenship & deported, all because of that American citizen’s political views. This is fascism.👇
Yesterday Laura Loomer called for Mamdani to be barred from running an charged with terrorism, now Rep. Andy Ogles, a sitting member of Congress, is calling him "little Muhammad" and demanding he be denaturalized.

10 years ago, the Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage across the US. Even before that, New Mexico recognized LGBTQ+ people’s right to love who they want. As the Trump administration attacks basic rights and rejects full equality, I’ll work to ensure love always wins in NM.

The reaction from corporate Dems was the same when @aoc.bsky.social won, and now she’s a superstar.

If some Dems are resisting @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social , maybe it’s a them problem?
