The only way to get of this mess is to vote for a Democratic Congress in November, and then a strong Democratic POTUS in 2028. That’s the ONLY way out.

Trump is in serious cognitive decline, plus he suffers from mental illness - Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Congress needs to step to the plate and impeach or demand his Administration utilizes the 25th amendment.

We are in crisis, because that is exactly what this Chaos President does- all he cares about is getting his mug on media everyday 24/7. While we all suffer with a war no one wanted, unaffordable food, healthcare, gas, and electricity, and a democracy so damaged it may take decades to repair.

Wilber Rafael Garces Perez, the man ICE shot on Sunday, was sent to a detention center *with a bullet still in his back.* He was reportedly given no pain medication and only sent to a hospital after losing feeling in the left side of his body. ICE’s cruelty knows no bounds.

#Iowa Ashley Hinson's net worth quadrupled in Congress. Then she voted to cut Medicaid for 110,000 Iowans. Josh Turek survived 21 surgeries as a kid & won't take corporate PAC money. One got rich. One knows what you're up against. Vote Turek for the US Senate! #Pinks #ProudBlue #OneV1

🚨BREAKING: In a win for Washington voters, a Biden-appointed federal judge dismissed the DOJ's lawsuit seeking access to the state's unredacted voter registration list. The ruling hands the department its 25th loss in its sweeping legal effort to access states' private voter data.

Mike Rogers was a leading advocate for boosting opioid prescriptions. He took over $1M from Big Pharma. He has always prioritized personal profit over the health and safety of Michiganders. That's not public safety. Watch our new ad, "Safe."

yesterday, the the major networks served up to Dear Leader a huge slice of Fuck You Pie, and boycotted all White House press events — leaving bottom-feeders like Newsmax to air amateurish silent videos. thank you for your attention to my coverage of this hilarious shit. link is here: bit.ly/4hkOvzV
holy shit.

yesterday, we finally got the answer to that age-old conundrum: if Dear Leader opens his fat yap in the middle of the White House, and there’s no one from the press pool around to report on it, does he make a noise?

the answer, it seems, is a resounding no.

KAEPERNICK: The part that I hope people take away in this moment is what Robert Kraft and what they’re saying by denying Macklemore is they are openly colluding. They also want people to know that if you take an action that they don’t agree with, they will come for you.

The price of Diesel affects ALL OF US. Because even if you're a person who bikes to work, commutes via public transportation, has an electric car, or stays at home most of the day... trucks use diesel.

We will need a Democratic Congress & POTUS to hold this Administration & the oligarchs accountable for their corruption. They will need to pass lots of legislation to protect the US from another dictator. And lastly, they need to tax the shit out of the oligarchs and get $ out of politics.

Why is Texas one of the hardest places in America to vote? Because the people in power know what happens when young voters and Black voters show up: they lose. Voter suppression is their confession that your vote has the power to end their grip on this state. #BlueWaveIn50Days

What is happening is a takeover by the wealthiest among us - the oligarch class. Their plans include increasing financial stress on Americans so we are unable to participate in the political process. All while they build their own self-contained gated cities. Look it up.

So Americans are losing their healthcare, including Medicare, the program for the poorest among us. All while ICE and the military see huge increases to their budgets. Where a country puts their $ informs us of what is important to them- in this case weapons, Intimidation, and death.
