Booker: Do you think we got the right to vote for women because a bunch of men on the House floor got together and said “on the count of three, women get the right to vote..” That’s not how it happened… Change doesn’t come from Washington. It comes to Washington.

Warnock: I hear people attack poor people and act like it’s a crime to be poor, rather than to recognize it’s criminal for so many people to be poor. They do all of this in the name of Jesus… Jesus is the biggest victim of identity theft in the United States

Happy Sunday! Here’s some scripture we all can enjoy!

If we’re serious about more efficient government and better everyday life in America - which we all should be - that means actually improving government, not cutting health care for poor people and slashing support for veterans.

John Legend spoke the truth- Trump is a racist, white supremacist. It's obvious when you see you he has fired and hired.

Pete Hegseth is clearly ill-equipped to handle the role of Secretary of Defense. His repeated failure to follow basic operational security procedures jeopardizes the safety and security of our armed forces. He should resign.

So we’ve got a Secretary of Defense who can’t keep his communications secure and a Secretary of Homeland Security who can’t keep her handbag secure. #FireThemAll

WHO ELSE AGREES WITH BARBRA?! 🤚

KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!

Fool me once, shame on you Fool me twice, shame on me Fool me three times, I have no shame.

Carl Sagan when asked, "Are you a Socialist?"

continuing the war on drugs is like putting oragel on a toothache at some point, the original issue needs addressed otherwise it'll never go away we need housing and financial security for the working class; and better care for the mentally and physically unwell people use drugs for a reason

Jasmine Crockett: ''I’m glad the Supreme Court stepped in and stopped that plane from taking off last night. Because deporting folks with no criminal record and no due process isn’t justice—it’s cruelty. You can’t scream 'law and order' while breaking the law at every turn.''

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this. The Secretary is unfit to lead.

Due process denied to ANYONE will soon become due process denied to EVERYONE… Remember that.

Maybe we should honor the women who were real astronauts. From left to right are Shannon W. Lucid, Margaret Rhea Seddon, Kathryn D. Sullivan, Judith A. Resnik, Anna L. Fisher, and Sally K. Ride. NASA selected all six women as their first female astronaut candidates in January 1978.

Tonight is the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere’s midnight ride. May his memory remind us all to resist the tyranny forming in our government.

Working every day to help decrease this disparity as a nurse-midwife who LISTENS to women. #maternalmortality #ACMN #blacklivesmatter

With these posts, they’ve made it essentially inarguable that they’re deliberately defying the Supreme Court.

NEW: I've read a lot of court documents in my time, but this is one of my new favorites. How a Judge tells a President to F**k Off. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/how-a-judg...

We are nearing the end.

Bro, this is gonna be so embarrassing for you, and you deserve it. 🫡 Maybe before you talk unmitigated shit to a woman who has more military experience in one of her ovaries than you have in your whole shrivel little man body, try Google.

Here are the Top 5 Dogs of the week!

Goldman: "Think about whether any of us want to vote a certain way but bc we fear for our personal safety, we decide to vote differently. We are no longer representing our constituents. We are representing something else more like the bully threatening us. That is more like Vladimir Putin operates"

Glad House Dems are demanding a full briefing—because immigration agents showed up at L.A. elementary schools, and DHS lied about it. Watch the video. Hear the truth from L.A.’s superintendent. Then ask why the hell Homeland Security is targeting kids. Don’t let this go!!!

David Brooks is calling for an uprising. This really is Bizarro World.

These stories landed today, within 11 hours of each other. This presidential administration is a clear and present danger to the American people.

The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

Tariffs on pharmaceuticals? Like we don't pay enough in this country for meds? More seniors will die because they can't afford their medications- and the administration doesn't give a damn.

Have never been prouder to be a Jersey girl, because my Senator is speaking out against this insanity.

No American can afford to ignore the systematic erosion of what it means to be American. We are way past political and ideological disagreements. What’s at stake is our adherence to the Constitution and rule of law. What safeguards all of our rights. Without it, we cease to be America.

HE IS PROMISING TO SEND AMERICANS TO FOREIGN DEATH CAMPS. This is it. This is where America ends.

Requiring REAL IDs and passports and birth certificates to vote?!? Imagine if these were required to buy a gun.

Bernie Sanders made a surprise appearance at Coachella 2025 last night. So he went from the LA rally to Coachella. He's 83 and fighting like this. This should be an inspiration to all of us. If he can do this, we can all do a little more.

If you want to win a trade war, you gotta have something to trade that other side wants. And we're in a trade war with the very people who make all the things WE want. You're not going to win that.
