Well done, @keating.house.gov A true ally doesn’t just watch—they stand up. I’ve accidentally misgendered someone at my daughter’s school before. It happens. The moment I realized, I apologized and made sure not to do it again. Rep Keith Self did this on purpose. He meant to be hurtful.

Wow. If you missed this today you have to see Rep John Larson of Connecticut hand the Republicans of the Ways and Means committee their asses. THIS is what fighting back looks like!!! youtu.be/0MJDxvPL-EI?...

Frances C. Perkins (1880-1965), was the first woman ever to serve in a presidential cabinet. She served with President F.D. Roosevelt and was the 4th US Secretary of Labor for the Democratic Party. She was a key figure in the creation of the Social Security Act of 1935. #WomensHistoryMonth

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

Mark Kelly is a retired Navy pilot, astronaut, and dedicated public servant. He is a hero. Elon Musk is a self-absorbed coward. Hope that clears things up.

"This is the most anti-Veteran administration in history...." I agree, Tim. Republicans are breaking America's sacred committment to our nation's warriors. #RepublicanCutsHurtVeterans

Privatization you say? And it's not just Social Security. It's the VA, Medicare, Medicaid, the Postal Service, schools, the police, prisons, NASA, scientific research... They want to privatize everything.

Republicans just shot down an amendment to their tax scam that would require the top .05 percent of American households to chip in just a measly 2 cents for every dollar of wealth over 50 million. You can't make this shit up.

It’s terrifying to be in Elon Musk’s crosshairs. I’ve spent the last 48 hours dealing with the aftermath of these tweets. Everything he has said about me and Troublemakers is an outright lie. The right to protest is at the heart of American democracy. Join a #TeslaTakedown protest. ✊❤️

Pretty sure he has a security detail and some sense of where people might be protesting. Time Magazine says hundreds are dead; the Trump-Vance plan is for far more Ukrainians to die, and Ukraine to lose its sovereignty and become a colony of Russia, aka permanent loss of rights and nationhood.

Donald Trump promised to lower food prices. Instead, he fired the experts in charge of containing the bird flu. Yep – the same bird flu that’s part of the reason egg prices are surging.

More of this, please! Chicago is on fire, letting Musk know they are not on board with his billionaire power grab. Let's continue pushing to make Tesla the next corporate pariah. Well done, Chicagoans, for using your voice to let him know what you think of his takeover of our government.

When Amazon launched in 1995, there were 5,500 indie bookshops in the U.S., with 7,000 locations. By May of 2023, that number had decreased to 2,185 indies & 2,599 locations. When you purchase audiobooks via Libro.fm vs. Audible, you directly support indie bookshops. Let's make that number grow ❤️
