This is going to be a different type of campaign.
Because when you’re going after Medicaid and even ripping food away from hungry kids, all to cut taxes for donors and corporate lobbyists, we’re not pulling punches.

I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t.
Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. Share this if you're with me.

You can cultivate a perspective embracing dynamism, diversity, and impermanence outside of an environment that reflects those, of course. But it's also easier to fall into the trap of resenting change, and feeling threatened by diversity. Think of cities as exposure therapy for social reality.

@klobuchar.senate.gov we already have 15k and quickly rising pledges to withhold donations to all Senate Dems until this happens. I'm a constituent whose voted for you three times. *Maybe* it will be four in 2030. This is what the consensus is. Do your job.

Trump at the DOJ: "I believe that CNN and MSNDC, who literally write 97.6% bad about me, are political arms of the Democrat Party. And in my opinion, they are really corrupt and they are illegal. What they do is illegal."

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

i honestly have never seen a political leader so thoroughly destroy their credibility so quickly and, on the other side, it is abundantly clear that if anyone can claim a genuine leadership of large parts of the democratic party, it is AOC.
Folks is it good when your own party's leadership in the House is dropping "listen to the women" and MLK quotes on you while swing state members of your caucus are talking about new leadership

As far as I understand it, 10 Democrats voted for the Republican budget because, if they didn't vote for it, there might be a government shutdown which would give Trump the power to fire federal employees and shut down agencies -- TWO THINGS TRUMP AND MUSK ARE ALREADY DOING ON A DAILY BASIS

Two Republican senators told me tonight this vote shows they can execute the same strategy again — cut Democrats out of the negotiations on a gov’t funding bill, pass it thru the House, and expect Senate Dems to back down and not filibuster it.
“We liked it over here,” one said.
