Our servicemembers are facing down barrage after barrage of Iranian missiles and drones while Trump twiddles his thumbs. Posting lies and brushing casualties under the rug won't stop the missiles from flying or get our troops out of harm's way. Bring our troops home. End the war.

The arrest & prolonged pre-trial detention of Azerbaijani opposition leader Ali Karimli is a blatant crackdown on dissent by the Aliyev govt.   Trump & Rubio should demand Karimli's immediate & unconditional release & an end to Aliyev's assault on free speech, the free press, & political dissent.

Democrats this is a major issue. It’s bad enough that SNAP benefits have been cut, healthcare costs are rising. Now seniors will be choosing between food, rent, medications and other necessities. This cannot happen. Affordability for basic needs should lead every platform for any Democrat candidate.

1. This is what America looks like with a President who is both a sociopath AND losing his mind. 2. It’s a good time to remind every member of the U.S. military they swore an oath to the Constitution, not an individual, and they have a duty/they are legally obligated to disobey illegal orders.

I know in this age of Trump what’s right & wrong no longer matters, & the law no longer matters. So I’m probably just shouting into the wind, but…what we just did in Venezuela is immoral & illegal. And it makes us no different than any other dictatorial regime that invades another sovereign nation.

Politicians complicate things. But this whole issue of why the House has closed down for the past 5 months and why Adelita Grijalva isn’t sworn in yet likely isn’t complicated at all. The answer is likely pretty damn simple: Trump is most likely a pedophile, and Speaker Johnson knows it. That’s all.

NYC Comptroller: Trump helped ICE turn Manhattan courthouse into an ‘abduction trap’
Asylum-seekers in New York City believe they’re doing the right thing showing up to scheduled hearings in immigration court. But lurking in the hallways are ICE agents laying an “abduction trap” for them. New York comptroller Brad Lander urges Americans to see what’s happening for themselves: “You don't have to risk arrest or put your body on the line to bear witness, to sit in court and show up to let people know their rights."

TN State Rep on working in the minority, against the odds: ‘Democracy is built up in the margins’
Tenn. Rep. Justin Jones is compelled to run for office even when the odds are stacked against him and to serve, even as part of a Democratic super-minority in a deep-red state legislature. “And even when I vote,” he tells Ali Velshi, “I always write out my dissents because I want to send them as a love letter to the next generation to say, ‘This is where we stood. This is why we stood. And we hope that by the time you read this … in the history books, you know that we were laying the groundwork for you to inherit this victory.’”
