James Talarico: I was raised by my granddad, a Baptist preacher, to follow the two commandments Jesus gave us: to love God and to love neighbor. There’s no exception to that second commandment. I’m called to love all of my neighbors, not just my Presbyterian or Christian neighbors.

Sen. Angus King says he sat down and made a list of everything Putin could possibly want from an American president. His conclusion about Trump? “This guy, this president, is doing almost all of them.” King then goes through the list. WATCH.

I’m tired of being divided into teams. Do you want a safe neighborhood? Do you want a good job with good benefits? Do you want a high quality, well funded public school? So do I. We’re far more the same than we are different. As one team, we’re unstoppable.

James Talarico: I’ve rolled out a plan to crack down on these giant data center companies. We’ve got to force them to pay for their own energy instead of jacking up our utility bills. We got to force them to recycle their water so they are not exacerbating the water crisis here in Texas.

Q: Talarico said he would stand up to his own party. Do you believe him? Texas Voter: I do. I think Talarico is kind of the bright light... He seems to me to be someone with integrity, and integrity in politics has been on the decline.

James Talarico just summed up the entire midterm election in one sentence: “We have an affordability crisis because we have a corruption crisis.” That’s it. This entire election comes down to affordability vs. corruption. Which one are you voting for?

The most embarrassing part of this entire exchange is when Harris challenges another reporter, arrogantly saying "I know the law. I'm a legislator. I actually know the law well" We've had enough of Republicans gaslighting us-and we're going to make some BIG changes this year #BlueWaveIn20Days

Ahead of the 2024 election, @andykroll.bsky.social got his hands on some secret tapes of Trump's budget director, Russell Vought. One thing Vought said hit Kroll like a ton of bricks: that he wanted to put government workers “in trauma.” Listen to this episode: propub.li/4yO4q11
“We want the bureaucrats to be traumatically affected. … When they wake up in the morning, we want them to not want to go to work.” —Russell Vought, Director of the White House Office of Management and Budget

Make no mistake—the weaponizing of federal law enforcement to go after elected officials who the President deems as “political opponents” is a chilling and dangerous abuse of power that must be stopped. We stand in solidarity with Rep. Omar and the Somali American community, and Rep. McIver.
Today Trump’s Department of Homeland Security raided U.S. Congresswoman Rep. Ilhan Omar’s house in a gross abuse of power. This comes as DHS and DOJ have abused and weaponized their power to pursue Congresswoman Rep. LaMonica McIver for doing her job this last year. 

Make no mistake—the weaponizing of federal law enforcement to go after elected officials who the President deems as “political opponents” is a chilling and dangerous abuse of power that must be stopped. 

We stand in solidarity with Rep. Omar and the entire Somali American community which has been under attack by this President time and time again, and with Rep. McIver who is still fighting this abuse of power in the courts. 

We will not stay silent.
