The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Republicans have had full control of the House, Senate and White House for 291 days.

Yet, not a single one has been spent lowering costs or protecting health care.

Instead, Republicans created a health care crisis, shut down the government and went on vacation for 7 weeks.

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.

Congratulations to Governor-elect @mikiesherrill.bsky.social and the New Jersey Indivisibles who worked so hard to secure this big win! This is a huge night for Democrats and a humiliation for Trump. The message from voters is clear: There is a political cost to siding with the regime.

Gaza has 2.2 million people. In 2 years, 10% of the population has been killed or wounded. Their entire infrastructure has been destroyed. 

Instead of giving more military aid to Netanyahu’s extremist government, the US must work with the international community to rebuild Gaza.

AOC: We should be clear about who Charlie Kirk was. A man who believed that the civil rights act that granted black Americans the right to vote was a mistake… His rhetoric and beliefs were ignorant, uneducated, and sought to disenfranchise millions of Americans.

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption.

Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow.

People have power. Ask Target

Wildfire smoke could soon kill 71,000 Americans every year.

The haze may already kill 40,000 people in the U.S. each year — the same number who die in traffic crashes. Climate change will only make matters worse.

This is wrong. This is an assault on free speech. This is our government using its power to censor and silence its critics like Jimmy Kimmel.
