It is clear that Democrats are set to sweep control of Congress in free and fair elections. It is also clear that Trump and the GOP are working to make sure the elections are not free and fair. I founded Democracy Docket to help you stay informed to fight back. demdock.com/4w6emld

Trump entered a war of choice with no plan for how to end it and our families paying the price.   It's beyond time Congress put an end to Trump's costly and illegal Iran War.

This is your reminder that Trump and Republicans are spending billions of your tax dollars on an unauthorized war in Iran and Stephen Miller’s ICE agenda while gutting Medicaid, slashing SNAP, and driving up your health care costs.

My new thing is that when someone asks me what I think about 2028, I ask them what they think about 2026. Because this November is the next election. Focus. There'll be plenty of time to talk about 2028 after we're done celebrating over washing Republicans out of Congress this November.

The U.S. is not overpopulated, this is a racist lie. Resources are not limited, they’re being distributed in a way that inflicts scarcity on the poor. You believe these lies because you’re choosing to consume fascist media. It’s up to you to answer why you consider those lies comforting.

"In the first seven months of his second term, authorities arrested and detained parents of at least 11,000 U.S. citizen children — a number that, if the pace held up, will have roughly doubled by now. That’s an average of more than 50 U.S. citizen kids a day with a parent pulled into detention."

Setting aside the question of the president's cognitive decline, and the question of why the press corps continues to overlook it, I think we know the story that Donald Trump would tell if a Democratic president were in his shoes. The old and weak president is losing, because he’s old and weak.
