A group of us have arrived on the Senate floor to challenge our colleagues - on both sides of the aside - to rise to this moment and jointly condemn what has happened to Sen. Padilla. Yes we still need to collect the full facts, but this appears to be a defining moment for the country.

Trump made $400m from his dinner tomorrow night. Along with the plane + improvements the dude pocketed $1b this week leveraging the Presidency. $1 billion - while he cuts health care for seniors and working people and raises prices on all of us.

Apparently, when I have three or more active WIPs, I fail to finish any of them.
Am currently knitting 🧶 socks, my second ranunculus sweater, and the temperature project and they are all languishing.

Finished my (first) Ranunculus sweater a couple of days ago. It fits great (another first for me) and was fun to knit. Already searching my stash for yarn for another.

This isn’t negligence. It’s a public health crime.

The turnout in small towns across the country has been incredible drawing crowds of thousands. We’re already seeing over one million in attendance nationwide, and events are still underway. Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Ohio all had especially surprising showings.

Yo! Shoutout to AOC & Bernie for leading by example — showing up, speaking truth & organizing w/the people, not just talking at them from D.C.
We need that same energy from all Dems. Whether it’s 35,000 or 35 people — show up. Hit the streets, hit the town halls, show you’re ready to fight for us.

Much of the cardboard and paper goods strewn about our homes are sold by a single private company, with its name, Uline, stamped on the bottom.
Few Americans know that a multibillion-dollar fortune made on those ubiquitous products fuels far-right candidates across the country.

That Cardboard Box in Your Home Is Fueling Election Denial
A previously unreported boom in profits for the shipping supply giant Uline has provided the funds for a deeply conservative Midwestern family to bankroll anti-democracy causes around the country.
