#KristiNoem keeps defending ICE — even as agents brutalize people and use deadly force. That’s not leadership. It’s enabling abuse. I signed to demand her firing. Add your name. app.sosha.ai/s/hCC9aBVX

#OTD in 1870, the 15th Amendment granted Black men the right to vote. But systemic barriers have persisted—and still do. 156 years later, the fight continues. Common Cause will always fight for the right to vote. ️✊

Those were the earlier years that kind of define why I think there's some part of me still that way. Not wanting to be pulled into a group situation, wanting to maintain some independence." #RobertRedford

One of Robert Redford’s most indelible on-screen roles was Bob Woodward in the 1976 film “All the President’s Men.” After Redford's death on Tuesday, Woodward remembered him as a “genuine, a noble and principled force for good who fought successfully to find and communicate the truth.”

There is a reason why working families are falling further and further behind. The cost of housing, health care and other basic necessities are rising much faster than wages. Learn about an excellent study from the Ludwig Institute.

Right now, Republicans in Congress are trying to push through a bill that would put millions of Americans at risk of losing their health care. They want to cut federal funding for Medicaid, take away tax credits that help more people afford coverage, and raise costs for working class families.

That means some of the most vulnerable Americans – families, the elderly, folks with disabilities – won’t be able to get the lifesaving treatment, medication, or care they need. These are people you know. Reach out to your senators now to let them know how much this will impact you.

The official CBO score of this dangerous bill confirms it: House Republicans are shamefully stealing from working American families to bankroll another handout to the rich. Republicans won't be able to hide from this. They know exactly who they’re hurting.

But let’s be clear: the Trump Justice Department cannot be trusted to conduct fair or impartial prosecutions, especially when targeting political opponents. This investigation, led by a longtime Cuomo critic, reeks of political retaliation.

Donald Trump's DOJ is clearly trying to interfere in New York City's Mayoral election. Trump dropped charges against Mayor Adams and is now bringing charges against his opponent. I do not support Andrew Cuomo for Mayor, but prosecutions must be driven by facts, not weaponized to settle vendettas.

Plus: Trump's "excellent call" with Putin, his new attacks on the media and #KamalaHarris's celebrity endorsers, and Kash Patel & Dan Bongino disappoint MAGA's conspiracist base.

$75,000,000. That's how much money Big Oil moguls gave to Donald Trump during his presidential campaign. Trump has and always will be on the same side as those who destroyed our planet and laughed at us all the way to the bank.
