Democratic politicians blasting out fundraising texts less than 48 hours before millions of people lose access to food assistance isn’t the only reason they are out of touch, but it’s a pretty good example of how out of touch they are. @democrats.org

It is not about Kimmel or what he said. It is about the US government forcing a network to fire someone - no government should have that power. If the network decided this on their own, that’s one thing. But in this case they absolutely did not.

Trump just designated “Antifa” as a terrorist organization, on par with ISIS and Al Qaeda. As a reminder, “antifa” is short for “antifascist”. They will use this lie to surveil, imprison, and kill Americans on the left. This may be our Reichstag Fire moment. Wake up. www.cnn.com/2025/09/17/p...

All of this, every bit of it, traces back to the failure of the U.S. government to invest in public education for decades and expecting overworked and underpaid educators to make up the difference.

I cannot imagine the terror the residents of Tehran are feeling at this moment, as they’re trying to flee with ten million of their neighbors. What is happening is morally and legally wrong. Dear God.

It's pretty telling that the second part of the "Mamdani is a danger to Jewish new yorkers" pitch is always "so vote for sexual harasser shitbag Italian Catholic Andrew Cuomo" and not "so vote for Jewish Progressive Brad Lander"

Look, there are consequences for voting to confirm people like Rubio and Noem, for voting for the Laken Riley Act, and for doing promo photo shoots with ICE & CPB. Until now, these consequences have been felt by others. Use the power that you have to start fighting this.

Reminder that seven Democratic senators voted to confirm Kristi Noem and six Dem senators declined to vote either way. She was confirmed, 59-34. The good faith experiment is clearly over, and we need the Democratic senators who didn't stand against her nomination to be loud as hell right now.

If Jesus had focused more on kitchen table issues and less on unpopular outcasts like lepers and prostitutes, he might have won more support from white working-class Judeans.

If Democratic congressional leadership don’t lead an en masse halt to all legislative business after today, I don’t know why they’re worth supporting. What moment could more demand a response of intractable and tedious opposition? Shut it all down, and refuse to budge.

Whitmer got a taste of national relevance and wanted to run for president so she watched Harris cater to the center, lose, and is immediately mimicking that. Incredible stupidity

When I get to the Senate, I'll support a bill to ban Congressional stock trading on day one. No elected official should be cashing in while the American people see their retirements go down the drain.

Yeah, the SAVE Act is an attack on women’s rights, and that is absolutely horrible and needs to to called out. The attack on trans rights seems to be getting lost in the shuffle, though, and should also be called out.

Rand Paul: "The whole [tariffs] debate is so fundamentally backwards & upside down. It's based on a fallacy & the fallacy is this: that somehow in a trade, someone must lose. That somehow when you trade with someone, someone is taking advantage of you... I have a trade deficit with my grocery store"

We need to focus more broadly than events in the White House. The entire GOP is working to give our Federal lands to private interests. Eliminating Federal land jobs will discourage public visitors. Extractive industries will do permanent damage. We must stop the privatization of our land.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory. Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.
