It is unconscionable that we have a president who wants to penalize states for feeding people who are hungry - and that's why we'll continue to fight like hell for Oregonians.

Now let's hope Commander in Cheeto honors it.
A federal judge permanently blocked Trump’s deployment of National Guard troops in Portland, Oregon, ruling it violated the Constitution and federal law. The order marks the first permanent block on the president’s military use in a Democratic-led city.

And yet, Cheeto-in-Chief goes on TV and says prices are down. Lower than Biden. SMH 🤬

Groceries saw their biggest jump in nearly three years last month, a worrisome sign for inflation-weary shoppers. Tariffs are contributing to higher prices for imported staples like bananas and coffee.
Grocery prices have jumped up, and there's no relief in sight

Mamdani: "We can respond to oligarchy and authoritarianism with the strength it fears, not the appeasement it craves. After all, if anyone can show a nation betrayed by Donald Trump how to defeat him, it is the city that gave rise to him."

26 billionaires spent over $22 million to beat Zohran Mamdani.

Why? Because regular people came together around an agenda that prioritized making life easier for more people. It beat big money.

That is how we win.

Every talking head is going to try to sell you the idea that
@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social's win was a fluke.

But working people are sending a message: they WANT a politics that prioritizes them, not the billionaires.

Absolutely this. We're going to have to fight for our voting rights harder than we ever have. MAGA is going to try to come for us. #registertovote #vote #protectvotingrights #wecandothis
If voting wasn't important they wouldn't be trying so hard to stop you.

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

Sweet Home, Chicago. I can't believe they are even taking this guy to court.
Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest.

The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.

"I could smell the onions and mustard."

A group of far right assholes have showed up to protest at David Douglas high school after students allegedly pushed back at a formation of a turning point chapter. School is out & they are outnumbered by predominantly Black & Brown students roasting the fuck out of them.
