Today I celebrate the beauty that a truly diverse society has brought to our country. I don’t want to live in a country where everyone looks and acts like me. To me living in a melting pot of people of all races is what makes this country great. I’m grateful for it and I will fight to keep it. 💙

How many of you have had an MRI but you have no idea what they looked at? Asking for a “president.”

The Republican chairs of both the House and Senate Armed Services committees signed a letter yesterday stating that they requested specific info many weeks ago on these strikes and the WH & Pentagon have refused to provide it. If the story is fake news, then turn everything over.

"If the U.S. military operation is not an armed conflict of any kind, these orders to kill helpless civilians clinging to the wreckage of a vessel our military destroyed would subject everyone from SECDEF down to the individual who pulled the trigger to prosecution under U.S. law for murder."
Here are US military lawyers stating clearly that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's "kill everybody" orders are either (1) war crimes or (2) murder.
Either way, expect prosecutions in the future.

I just thought I'd let you guys know that I made this same exact post on X and it got a ton of likes which triggered it to get barraged - literally barraged - by pro-billionaire bots and trolls. More than I've seen before except maybe once or twice. Clearly this is Elon's pet issue.

It's amazing how so many billionaires - who have WAY more money than they could possibly need in 500 lifetimes - REALLY want to avoid paying small slivers of tax money to benefit a common good like social safety services for less fortunate countrymen within the society that made them billionaires.

If Democrats want to regain working people, they must disavow Big Money.
They must hammer economic populism — and have a laser focus on the cost of living crisis in America.
There’s no way the party can speak for or represent the working class in America if it's beholden to corporate interests.

is right to ring the alarm…
Congress has to make AI a priority. Legislators let social media go unregulated and we all see the fallout. It’s the Wild West. We cannot let the same thing happen with AI.
If Congress sleeps on this, we’re in trouble.

The New Deal wasn’t built on a promise that there would be “no ceiling” for the richest Americans.
Quite the opposite, in fact. FDR knew its politics could only work if he singled out the rich as villains and knew that its policies could only work if the rich paid their fair share in taxes.

It's okay for some campaign promises to be about optics rather than policy. "We're going to bulldoze his monument to himself on Day One and rebuild the East Wing" would be a very good one for 2028.
