Thank you, @warren.senate.gov, for doing the right thing & forcing a full reading of the Big Ugly bill and holding the Senate all night to do it! I am a voter & fan and I applaud you and other Democrats when you fight! #DemsGrowASpine #CallYourSenator #PGAS app.sosha.ai/s/vSlrromo

Mark Warner: "It will move us as a nation aback to the same percentage of uninsured we had before Obamacare. It's not like these people are not gonna get sick. They're gonna show up at the emergency room. Rural hospitals are gonna shut down ... it's cruel"

Somebody just got told!

Mamdani: "I've already had to start get used to the fact that the president will talk about how I look, how I sound, where I'm from, ultimately bc he wants to distract from what I'm fighting for. I'm fighting for the the very working people he ran a campaign to empower that he has since betrayed."

It was 100 degrees in the shade at 6 pm but #Tucson showed up at the federal courthouse because we have no choice and #tucsonhatesfascists

BREAKING: Thom Tillis just announced he won’t seek re-election. That means that there will be an open North Carolina Senate seat in 2026. Let’s flip it. secure.actblue.com/donate/votse...

Well, Tom Tillis says he will not seek reelection as a result of his opposition of Trump’s hideous budget, bill. I wonder how many other republican senators and representatives realize that they vote FOR trump’s budget bill will likely result in a Democrat taking their seats in the mid-terms?

Just a thought... When white Christians say people are terrorists, what they're really saying is they enjoy terrorizing those they call terrorists.

Republicans want to cut Medicaid and SNAP—so that this dude can have a tax cut. But tell us again how they’re the party of working people. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

If Republicans think we will just get over it, they are wrong! #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid nearly a trillion in cuts so billionaires can get more tax cuts. Shame on Republicans

This should be a constitutional requirement, in addition to not being an insurrectionist.

If you’re not outright condemning the strike in your outrage over procedure, you are giving Trump credibility on this fucked up shit.

Since it is Juneteenth, I will share a lil something... My ancestors were slaves in Texas & were freed on June 19, 1865. They came together to meet with other ex-slaves & formed the Limestone County 19th of June Organization. They bought 30 acres of land on Lake Mexia.

Juneteenth went uncelebrated by the White House. That alone says everything you need to know about this racist regime.

There's so much to love!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

This would have been a terrific moment in history for the United States of America to have a presidential administration with at least the tiniest bit of moral authority.

Absolutely CAN NOT wait!

INDEPENDENCE WITHOUT TYRANNY 🇺🇸 JULY 4th, 2025 🇺🇸 NO KINGS 2.0 🔥 #SheShed

On today’s Democratic Daily Download, @algreen.house.gov pays tribute to the great American holiday of Juneteenth.

Remember this gang?!?!?!?

Brutal.

Juneteenth calls us to understand the realities of our past, celebrate the resilience and achievements of Black Americans, and align the course of our country toward its founding creed of liberty and justice for all. Wishing everyone a meaningful Juneteenth!

Thank you, Madam Speaker.

BREAKING: A federal judge reversed National Institutes of Health's terminations of hundreds of critical research grants that were canceled because of their alleged connection to disfavored topics, including diversity, equity, inclusion, and gender identity. This is a major win for public health.

This is great advice. Remember whoever urges or commits violence is one of THEM! We are committed to forcing change through peaceful non-co-operations. Stay frosty, my sisters & brothers🤗💙🤗

@ericswalwell.bsky.social urges all Americans to show up for No Kings Day this Saturday. “If we don’t show up, democracy dies” #NoKingsDay
