The Constitution explicitly grants states the authority to set the time, place, and manner of their own elections. No President has the power to rewrite state election laws by decree, nor to change the laws passed by Congress for federal elections.

The #HandsOff rallies in Michigan were fierce. We showed up, we spoke out, and we made it clear: we’re done playing nice while they try to strip our rights and gut our communities. We caught a senator @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social in Ferndale, MI & a few thousand of our friends 👇

This!

Mallory McMorrow didn’t come to play it safe—she’s here to shake things up. A bold reformer, she’s taking on Michigan’s U.S. Senate race with a clear message: it’s time for real change in the Democratic Party. Michigan deserves a fighter. Let’s back her.

We need new leaders in Washington. I’m running for Senate to be one. Let’s go.

Cory Booker breaks the record Crawford wins Weil and Valimont slash the margin Elon Musk is poison. Good day for democracy.

Elon Musk spent millions in a failed scheme to buy a Wisconsin Supreme Court seat. Voters decisively rejected Donald Trump, Musk and the rapidly deteriorating Republican brand. Back up off the American people.

Cory Booker will break the record for longest Senate floor speech at 7:19 PM EDT. Fewer than 2 hours from now. The record is held by Strom Thurmond, who was arguing for segregation. GO CORY, GO!

Breaking: Cory Booker has officially delivered the longest Senate floor speech in US history, surpassing Strom Thurmond’s filibuster against the Civil Rights Act.

SEN. BOOKER KICKS OFF LENGTHY FILIBUSTER TO PROTEST TRUMP REGIME “I rise tonight with the intention of disrupting the normal business of the United States Senate for as long as I am physically able…1/

This!!

WOW #RepDetroit ☄️🔥

Latest defense: The texts were only concepts of a war plan

When will there be a class action organized against the federal government to get ALL social security $ returned to citizens who have paid their entire lives? And by whom? Need to be prepared in advance.

Truth If Hegseth was the Secretary of Defense with Putin or Xi he probably would have been executed before dawn But here he doesn't even resign Wtg America

In the United States, we have three coequal branches of government and, I don't know if Congress knows it, but they are one of 'em. Executive orders are not laws. Full stop.

Michiganders gathered at Hart Plaza on the edge of the Detroit River—facing our Canadian neighbors across the water in Ontario—to send a united message: we reject the Trump regime & the billionaire-fueled authoritarianism it brings. A show of cross-border power, united by justice and freedom. 💙🇺🇸🇨🇦💙

@adamkinzinger.bsky.social Why delete? Speak your truth if you have something to say about it. People can respect you (like I do) but disagree with the timing of your message.

Invading the Capitol Building is one thing, but now protesters have descended on America's most precious symbol of national pride: the Tesla dealership.

This is Chuck. Chuck is selling a book. Chuck also has a full-time job. I would consider buying Chuck’s book if he were doing that job, but he’s not. Don’t be like Chuck. And don’t buy Chuck’s book.

@schumer.senate.gov You fucking cowardly bootlicker

Fucking Gary Peters

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.
