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. www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8wM...

Everyone look at this and let's do it

Ghoulish. She won't even agree to help a worried mother know whether her son is even alive. Andry has been imprisoned without trial for 60 days, held incommunicado by the Salvadoran government as part of a deal where we handed Bukele a metaphorical briefcase of cash to detain hundreds of people!

NEWS: U.S. and China agree to a 90-day pause on new tariffs after shipping to U.S. ports plummeted. Tariffs on Chinese imports will be cut from 145% to 30%. Tariffs on U.S. imports will be cut from 125% to 10%. If tariffs should result in massive job growth and make the U.S. rich, why lower them?

My new favorite book

AOC: If anyone is breaking the law in this situation, it’s not members of Congress — it’s DHS. It’s people like Tom Homan and Secretary Kristi Noem. You lay a finger on Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman or any of the Representatives that were there… we’re going to have a problem.

So many people have grown up to be the villains of our stories.

Buttigieg: Like I love A1 steak sauce, but A1 steak sauce is not one of the most important things confronting humanity right now. Artificial intelligence is. And somebody who doesn't understand that probably should not be leading an important federal agency.

Misinformation - the accidental spread of false information without intent to harm Disinformation - false information designed to mislead others and used with the intent to confuse fact and fiction This is neither.

Coloradan Trisha Calvarese is working to unseat Lauren Boebert. A longtime fierce progressive and dear friend of mine is working on this campaign, and I'm excited to see someone with a real chance to consign Boebert to the cesspit of political history.

This is extremely troubling. Not sure what constituents are supposed to do when you rarely hold town halls, and when you do, you screen questions. People have legitimate issues with #MGPisGOP and she should be standing up for peoples rights to disagree with their Government officials. #FreeSpeech

Your periodic reminder that one way to think about privilege is: who's allowed to make mistakes?

EXACTLY.

Here are the Top 5 Dogs of the week!

BREAKING: Juan Carlos Lopez-Gomez has been released. This is the moment he reunited with his mom.

🚨A U.S. born citizen was arrested in Florida for entering the state as an “unauthorized alien.” His mother and a community advocate showed his birth certificate during a hearing in Leon County. The judge said she had no authority to release him.

Thank YOU for coming out! This is exactly why we do this. One objective of these rallies has been for people in red and swing areas to start seeing and finding one another. There is power in numbers. We also bring local organizers onstage to speak and highlight local issues. It’s been great 💜

Sanders: I come from the state of Vermont and I am here Bakersfield. Alexandria comes from New York and she is here in Bakersfield. Mr. Congressman, you live in this district, why don’t you show up…

The assault on education in #Florida continues. State lawmakers are proposing to cut funding for Advanced Placement, dual enrollment, IB and more. Some teacher bonuses will also be cut. Uneducated people are easier to control. www.wesh.com/article/flor...

#Florida: It is time to call your state representatives and demand they continue to fully fund add-on weights/incentive funding for essential college and career readiness programs like CTE, AP, IB, DE and AICE. accountabaloney.com/protect-fund...

Girl! We got a WHISTLEBLOWER! DOGE is stealing Union data & sensitive labor data.

AOC: It’s bone-chilling. Every day, there’s something new. And today, we saw Trump express openness to sending U.S. citizens to foreign prisons without due process. It’s anti-American.
