"All we say to America is, 'Be true to what you said on paper.'" These words — spoken by MLK Jr. shortly before he was killed on this day in 1968 — ring just as true now. Let's honor his legacy by continuing the fight for social and economic justice.

Poilievre continues to use the word "Liberals" as an insult. Please, do yourself a favour. Look up the definition of a liberal. Now I ask you, why aren't YOU? We're not evil people like Pierre wants you to believe. #cdnpoli It's partisan bullshit. Knock it off.

My God. ICE wrongfully arrested a man while his 5-year-old autistic child sat in the backseat—and shipped him off to an El Salvador prison. No due process. Now the Trump administration claims they can’t get him back. How many more? THIS NEEDS TO BE A BIGGER STORY.

moving forward I would like to see dems gum up the works every way possible. No unanimous consent, full votes on every tiny piece of business. I don't expect everyone to have the stamina to do a Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, but many lengthy floor speeches. Just slow everything down to a crawl.

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Tomorrow the House is voting on HR22 aka the SAVE Act which will disenfranchise millions of voters, especially women whose birth certificates don't match social security cards, create barriers for vote by mail, and create nothing but hurdles for most voting rights for people.
