If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage. And we certainly wouldn't have public executions. The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.” It's about cruelty.

Sen. Mark Kelly: "The president has spent a good portion of his adult life sitting on gold toilets and doesn't know what hardship is, and doesn't understand our service members. In fact, it's insulting what he said -- that the deployment wasn't long enough. He doesn't know sacrifice."

I just came across algae at my daughter's swimming class. I picked it up barehanded, said to it “not in Trump's America,” and tossed it in the trash. A whole row of parents stood, saluted, and one couple was even in tears.

Kamala Harris calls for an “expanded playbook” to strengthen democracy—including Electoral College reform, Supreme Court expansion, multi-member districts, and D.C./Puerto Rico statehood. Republicans spent years changing the rules to entrench GOP rule. Democrats are now talking about fighting back.

For too long, bureaucracy kept 7 child care centers across our city empty — spaces that should have been alive with laughter instead collected dust. We've run through that red tape. This fall, all 7 will open their doors, bringing an additional 240 free 3-K seats & real relief to working families.

So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion. That's roughly $1 billion per day. $41,666,667 per hour. $11,574 per second. People do not want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

So you won the House, the Senate, and the Presidency. You stacked the courts, the DOJ, HHS, the FBI, and everything else with loyalists. But you think you should be allowed total control of elections to make sure it's not "rigged". "Make America Stupid Again" because smart people dont like you. 🙄

Populist Dems won. Moderate Dems won. We won in blue states. We won in purple states. Maybe the take is that (a) people think Trump is out of control; and (b) people like Dems when we're taking a stand and fighting for what we believe in - as we have been for the last month.

We can fund health care and keep the government running, or we can shut everything down to raise prices on people. To me, that’s a pretty easy choice.
