Understand this: most Black people see the Graham Platner controversy through a completely different lens than most white people— our lived experience. So stop telling us it’s no big deal. It’s no big deal to YOU.

Their policies are already so unpopular, it’s no wonder congressional Republicans delayed the most harmful impacts until after the next election.

ICE just prevented me from entering an immigration detention facility in my district—a clear violation of federal law.

It is mind-boggling that the answer to the question "Should we feed the hungry and heal the sick or give more money to billionaires?" leads MAGA to this spending bill.

Public service is about making people's lives better, safer, and more secure. Or so I thought.

Someone has gone through and actually run the numbers on molestation crimes against children.

The politicians who commit these crimes are overwhelmingly Republican.

67% of politicians convicted between February 10, 2023 and May 23, 2024 nationwide were Republicans.

A Seattle woman died from hyperthermia caused by the 2021 Pacific Northwest Heat Dome—the worst heat wave in the area in recorded history.

This year, her daughter filed the first ever U.S. lawsuit directly taking on the fossil fuel industry for a climate-related death.

Just for the record @zeeshanaleem.bsky.social, Pete Buttigieg has never been a “moderate”. 😊

He was a progressive mayor, his policies were progressive, including expansion of the Supreme Court, & he was the most pro-union & pro-consumer.Secretary we’ve ever ever had. 👇🏾
