Protect journalists! If someone doesn’t want the public to know what they’re doing, that’s exactly when we must know what they’re doing.
This sign hits hard because it’s real. When they come for the truth-tellers, the rest of us are left in the dark. If we don’t defend journalism, we won’t know what to defend next.

This is outrageous! It’s beyond despicable.
Ohh this makes me so angry
Look at this sweet, innocent baby —small, scared, utterly alone in a courtroom. No lawyer. No protection. No justice. Trump cut legal aid for migrant children, tearing away their last lifeline.
They say they care about families. But this? This is sanctioned cruelty.

Did y’all see George Santos’ mom get booed last night?

Harriet insulted her own constituents, called them deranged, and accused them of being paid actors. Republicans in Congress are completely out of touch with reality.

Tom Kean Jr schedules a telephone "town hall" - the 1st time he'll take questions from #NJ07 constituents since his 2nd term began almost 4 months ago.

Will he explain why he's cool with Trump-Musk-GOP attacking SSA, VA, EPA, USPS, other vital agencies - and our allies?

Only one way to find out!

NEWS: Senator Kim is hosting THREE town halls this week across NJ.

At this critical moment, it is so important we come together and talk through what’s on our minds. Stop by if you can!

Rep. Tom Kean Jr. (R #NJ07) is on the House committee tasked with setting healthcare spending levels.
He has promised to "protect" Medicaid.
But he voted for the GOP budget plan that calls for cutting ~$878M from Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program.
Hey Tom! Explain yourself!

🚨Sen. Elissa Slotkin: “There is no king in this country.”

Trump’s billionaire pals are accessing sensitive info without checks or disclosures. It’s illegal—and a threat to our democracy.

“History will watch what we do.” Congress must stand up and defend the country we love.

Democracy thrives when we replace apathy with awareness and action. Are we just watching policies change, or are we active participants setting the course?

@marcelias.bsky.social: "There is a reason why Trump nominated Kash Patel, Tulsi Gabbard, Pete Hegseth. He wants to humiliate these Republicans, because he knows that once they have voted for these folks, he will own them. They will not have a shred of dignity or standing left."
