if you see anyone expressing shock that a candidate who exudes warmth and authenticity and wants to improve the quality of life for working class people won over a rapist whose entire campaign was "that guys a terrorist" that's not a smart person. you don't have to listen to that person anymore.

Trump is utterly a creature of self preservation and if he continues to sink he’ll find people to blame. May I nominate Stephen Miller.

Zohran Mamdani ran on freezing the rent in NYC. Abigail Spanberger ran on supporting fired federal workers and lowering the cost of living in VA. Mikie Sherrill ran on lowering utility bills in NJ. Ensuring people can afford to live a decent life is the path forward.

I live in NJ, but in a pretty purple (I’m being generous) part of the state. I have several MAGA neighbors. I am praying I hear them complain about NJ’s Dem landslide so I can say to them what MAGAts love to tell us: IF YOU DON’T LIKE IT, LEAVE.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Mitch McConnell voting no on terrible cabinet picks because he doesn’t have to run for reelection is all the proof you need that we must have term limits. You shouldn’t only have a spine because you don’t have to run again. We are breeding chicken shit power hungry electeds.

Trump campaigned on lowering costs, but today’s inflation data shows he's failing to deliver on that promise. President Trump should be paying attention to rising inflation instead of trying to gut the CFPB, which saves Americans money and protects them from Wall Street scams.

And everyone who said it’s not about race. The fact that the very *first moves* of Trump/Musk were to dismantle racial integration efforts (yes this is what I will call DEI), and destroy USAID, an agency that helped victims of South African apartheid. This is White Supremacy 4.0 in action.

Dear DNC, DSCC, and DCCC: I don't want to see another fundraising text or email asking for a dollar of mine until I see an actual plan to meet this moment. Y'all had 11 weeks between the election and inauguration, and there's still no plan. There's no excuse for that. No plan, no donation.

Elon Musk & his team of hackers have hijacked your personal information. Musk - who no one elected - is going to decide what he thinks should be cut from the U.S. government. We are all being held hostage by a rogue government who couldn’t care less about anyone but their own billionaire interests.

If the FAA director got fired over a business beef AND there was an air traffic controller hiring freeze despite huge shortages AND a chaotic blitz to hollow out federal bureaucracy, and then within a week the first American airliner crashes in 16 years, you would be insane not to talk about it all.

🔥🔥A 2021 study found that Medicaid expansion as part of the ACA led to a substantial reduction in mortality, primarily driven by reductions in disease-related deaths. A 2018 study in the Journal of Political Economy found that, Medicaid reduced infant and child mortality since the 1960s and 1970s.🔥🔥
