ICE pepper-sprayed this 1-year-old girl.

Once at the hospital, the doctor had to call in a poison control specialist.

They had never seen anyone that young pepper sprayed.

Another horrific story.

More details below.

instead of saying this was good strategy, maybe senate dems should say: "the republicans were going to kill people by starving them to death, and because we aren't monsters, we decided to let this fight go. We'll keep fighting. Stop electing monsters."

John Thune and I did pinky promise, blood brothers, everything. He won’t go back on that because then we wouldn’t be friends anymore

Politicians completely underestimate the extent to which the corrupting influence of big money in politics matters to voters.

If Democrats swore off big money and ran hard on anti-corruption, they could actually start winning in deep red states.

Be sure you take a moment today to remember Charlie Kirk for exactly who he was.
Charlie Kirk Sept 27 2024: "Just so we're clear, the Haitians that are in Huntsville that are raping your women and hunting you down at night - it's only gonna get worse - unless Donald Trump wins
There will be hundreds of thousands of Haitians brought into Alabama and they will become your masters"

the era of small government is over and we can either have armed thugs with badges disappearing people or universal health care and high speed rail

Thank you! I thought I was the only person who had noticed this. Weird that we can’t get any brilliant Econ talking heads to discuss the fundamental incoherence of his policy goals!

Devastating news for a New Yorker interested in teaching in Oklahoma. You have to think such a person may exist.
Oklahoma will require teachers from NY, CA to prove they back 'America First'
Oklahoma's new "America First" teacher certification test will require educators from California and New York to agree with conservative curriculum.

What a classic politician move.

“I missed this vote, making one portion of my constituency happy”

But…

“Had I been there, I would’ve voted against this bill, making another portion of my constituency happy”

For the love of god do we need some dems that actually stand for something.

Would be awesome to see the #mets show some life here. Fans have shown up in droves to see a lot of uncompetitive baseball lately.

Incoherent and embarrassing.

He admits our intelligence doesn’t say we destroyed anything but he still believes we destroyed everything because of course he does.
Trump:  "The intelligence was very inconclusive. The intelligence says we don't know. It could have been very severe. That's what the intelligence says. So I guess that's correct. But I think we can take the we don't know. It was very severe. It was obliteration."

The Trump effect: it’s been a week since an elected official was murdered for being a Democrat, and it’s all but forgotten by the media and even the Democratic Party.

I keep getting asked if it’s legal to spend our campaign funds on food drives or our high school public service grants and the answer is YES. It is.

Politicians and Democratic organizations need to use their coffers to help people NOW and fill in the gaps that Trump has created.
if dems want messaging help, stop telling people you're "fighting back." it sounds like you're being mugged. call off the podcaster search, take your ridiculous money pile and try opening some food banks and free clinics. hurricanes are coming and the feds have no plan. looks like an opening to me.

As a teacher, I leave for work at 6:15 AM and leave work around 2:45 PM.

Right now is the peak season of frantically switching my car’s dial to heat or AC - whichever is the opposite of what I have blasting.
