I am really disappointed that any Democrat voted to “condemn the horrors of socialism in all its forms” and even more disturbed by the number that did. WTF? You all should know better. Seriously.

Very comprehensive article and a very dark holiday read. The most significant religious persecution happening in USA currently is Christian Nationalists attacking and oppressing marginal and vulnerable Christians, predominantly but not exclusively of South American origin.

We believe healthcare is a right for every American. But starting today, millions of people will be notified that they are being priced out of their insurance thanks to Republican policies. Enough is enough. The GOP may shut down the government, but we will stand tall for YOU.

1/3 This is the best of America: people showing up, speaking out, and refusing to be silent while ICE abducts families outside courthouses. Moms and kids, obeying the law—dragged into vans by agents lurking outside legal proceedings. This isn’t enforcement. It’s terror in broad daylight in Phoenix.
