Proud of Rep. Abdelnasser Rashid for leading the charge to repeal Illinois’ anti-BDS law.
As the only Palestinian American serving in the Illinois General Assembly, he has shown real courage in taking on attacks to our fundamental freedoms. We’re in this fight with him.

ProPublica published children's letters and drawings documenting their sadness and suffering at Dilley. And Dilley staff are now retaliating by confiscating kids' letters and drawings.

I'm so glad millionaires can more easily buy racehorses. It was really worth cutting education, clean energy, and healthcare to make that happen.
Thanks, President Trump 🙏

Without corporate collaborators, ICE could not carry out violent raids, operate sprawling detention centers, or deport people at scale.
These corporations are enabling violence on the streets and death behind barbed wire.
It’s time to boycott them. Watch.

Trump’s regulators have announced they will fight states’ attempts to regulate prediction markets.
It just so happens that Donald Trump, Jr. is involved with both Polymarket & Kalshi, and the Trumps’ social media company is launching its own prediction market.
Always follow the money.

A must read about how North Carolina Republicans targeted college students and how they are fighting back. You will be glad you read it. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/nor...
Amid new GOP-led restrictions, North Carolina students lead a fight to vote during the midterm primary
“There’s nothing that the board of elections is going to do to stop me from voting,” one student said.

Rev. Jesse Jackson built the Rainbow Coalition as a political home rooted in dignity and solidarity. That struggle continues here in New York City, in every fight for housing, justice, and equality.
Today, we lower our flags in his honor — and recommit to the movement he called us to build.

As I predicted last week, the GOP has filed a new lawsuit -- again in Tazewell County. At this point they are just helping increase my firm's court victory count for the cycle. So I guess I should say thanks.😂
After the state Supreme Court's order today, Virginia Democrats are now one referendum vote away from a 10-1 congressional map. I suspect the GOP is trying to figure out how to file a new lawsuit or concoct a theory for SCOTUS. Both will fail.
A big win! www.democracydocket.com/cases/virgin...

I don't know what to do but just keep repeating it so I don't go insane: the rise & eventual total domination of RW media is the single most significant political development of my lifetime and the entirely of the US political & media elite resolutely refuse to discuss or even acknowledge it.

How is this even possible? Rep. Haley Stevens, who is running for #MISen, "seemed generally impressed with the staff" at an ICE detention facility, per the @michiganadvance.com.
At the same event, Rep. Hillary Scholten spoke of a man "being kept in a freezing room where he couldn’t feel his toes."
