Pete Hegseth says he’s going to court-martial me for saying the same exact thing he said 9 years ago. What changed for Pete? Well to start, he spends all day thinking about how he can suck up to Trump. When Trump says jump, he says how high.

Amarillo is one of the reddest towns in Texas.
But I showed up because our campaign is not writing off any community.

The CBC is reminding us that condemning violence without confronting racist ideology is hollow.
And that honoring someone who denied systemic racism, mocked Black leaders, and pushed white nationalist conspiracy theories isn’t about healing, it’s actually about creating a martyr out of a myth.

It’s a window into the chasm between how Black and white Americans view race.
For too many white people, racism is still not a dealbreaker. They’ll denounce (some) violence but protect the worldview that fuels it.

You can’t support and celebrate mistreatment and cruelty towards your fellow human beings and follow Jesus at the same time.

I’m glad SCOTUS stepped in & stopped that plane from taking off.
Deporting folks with no record & no due process isn’t justice—it’s cruelty.
Meanwhile, the Republicans follow a convicted felon like he’s the Second Coming.

🚨House Republicans just passed a bill that would disenfranchise 70 million married American women.
Under the SAVE Act, women who took their spouse’s last name and don't have an updated passport or birth certificate would be turned away at the polls.

Today, we’re voting on what Republicans are calling the “SAVE Act”—but let’s be real, it’s a straight-up voter suppression bill.
They are literally trying to make it harder for millions of Americans to exercise their right to vote.
I’m voting NO—hell no, actually.
