#AZLD14 Stephanie Walsh is my choice for state senate. The GOP have had long enough to act on behalf of this district & have not delivered. Walsh will focus on affordability & the economy, strong public schools, reliable energy & water protection. Vote for Stephanie! #Pinks #ProudBlue #OneV1

It’s batshit to me that the far left think they can win national, statewide, or even local races across this country w/out building a coalition that includes moderates. I’m a progressive. But I know calling moderates names doesn’t win them over, it just shrinks your coalition.

Donald Trump hasn't had a single kind word for any of the 1,200 victims of Epstein.
He hasn't mentioned their suffering.
He hasn't tried to fix the rape culture that permitted it.
Who has he had a kind word for?
Ghislaine Maxwell. Who he "wished well"
Let that sink in.

Calling alleged rape “bad decisions” isn’t a defense of due process. It’s victim-blaming dressed up as an op-ed. If anyone thinks the Cornell 7 are experiencing an unfair rush to judgment, imagine if they were Black men. There would be another Trump-style Central Park Five ad. Or worse.

What a lie. Some of these people are being imprisoned indefinitely in squalid condition in African prisons. Others report being beaten and arbitrarily deported in violation of international law back to their home countries, where they face persecution or torture.
The indefinite nature of their confinement has taken a severe toll. In October 2025, a Cuban man who was on the July flight went on a hunger strike for a month-until he started showing signs of organ failure —to protest the conditions of his detention, including his ongoing confinement and lack of access to legal counsel.
Terrified of being imprisoned in Eswatini forever, another man repeatedly told his attorney that the prison there never lets people go. One man told his attorney that he feels like a caged animal with no end in sight. The prison does not have air conditioning, making the hot, humid summer months especially uncomfortable for the men.
Food is insufficient, medication is scarce, and requests often go unmet or are belatedly met.
