I will never forgive Joe Biden for refusing to do anything for reproductive freedom

i've decided not to listen to the audio of a teacher reporting a kindergartender because frankly I don't want to become the person that that event would turn me into. but one thing I hope we are collectively coming to grips with is what it meant that we have lived among such people this whole time

And they told Rep. Thomas Massie and me this was a hoax and conspiracy when we risked our reputations and careers to pursue the release of the files.

josh shapiro is a loser and if you like him you’re a loser too.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

And he WILL be brought to justice.

We’re airing a new campaign ad, starting tomorrow.

Here it is:

I just introduced an amendment to hold Pam Bondi in civil contempt of Congress.

Since August, she has been legally compelled by our bipartisan subpoena to release the full Epstein files.

Without the files, we can't have a serious investigation. It's time she answer for her role in this cover up.

off the top of my head, moral responsibility for trump, in descending order:

1- trump and his inner circle
2- SCOTUS
3- GOP-affiliated elites
4- biden DOJ
5- intelligentsia/media types who misled the public about the threat he posed and the tools available to stop him
6- elected dems
7- voters

Our reporting has found that ICE sent 600 immigrant kids to detention in federal shelters in 2025.

A 17-year-old was detained at a traffic stop because officers couldn’t make contact with his dad, who is deaf.

Another kid ended up in a shelter after making a wrong turn:

Bipartisan negotiators released a DHS funding bill that does not significantly reduce ICE and CBP’s funding nor rein in the agencies’ abuses of power.

Make no mistake: Any Democrat who votes for this bill is complicit in Trump’s campaign of terror.

Grow a spine and vote no.

Unconstitutional force. Civilians dead. Congress bypassed. Oil interests front and center.

We’ve seen this movie before and it ends in blood. But we don’t have to do it again.

The silence from many media-hyped 2028 contenders today is shocking.

If you cannot oppose this regime change war for oil, you don't have the moral clarity or guts to lead our party or nation.

Hi Pam. Just a quick reminder that Nixon didn’t go to prison - but his AG did. Happy holidays.

I understand the concern about setting off a constitutional crisis, but we are already in one and we need fighters on the side of the constitution.

Well file 468 isn’t there so it’s true. Seems like it’s time for oversight dems to enforce the law the wrote — hold her in contempt of Congress and get the US Marshall’s to bring her in if necessary.

Opinion column from David Brooks: The Epstein Story? Count Me Out.

I have been especially startled to see Ro Khanna, a House Democrat and one of the most impressive politicians in America, use the phrase “the Epstein class” in his public statements. In an interview with my colleague David Leonhardt this week, Khanna explained that he had gotten the phrase from voters who asked him if he was on the side of “forgotten Americans” or “the Epstein class.”

I don’t know how it works at the New York Times, but my editors at The Guardian would never let me publish this if they knew that I was one of the elites who spent time with Epstein. And if I published it without telling them, I would be out of a job.

Opinion | Why should the FBI care about catching the Brown shooter? It's not like he killed a healthcare CEO or a right-wing influencer.

Can someone explain to me what exactly a “robust” marriage is??

After Trump Officials Cut Food Aid to Kenya, Children Starved to Death “Brutal and traumatizing”: Interviews and a trove of internal documents show government officials and aid workers desperately tried to warn Trump advisers about impending disaster and death.

NEW: Without USAID funding to help buy food for refugees, the World Food Program rushed to prioritize families based on need, determining that only half the population would get food.

Refugees learned which half they were in from a number stamped on the back of their ration card.

I'm not holding my breath for two days knowing they'll find another distraction from the distraction

DOGE Isn’t Dead. Here’s What Its Operatives Are Doing Now Contrary to popular reports, DOGE has “burrowed into the agencies like ticks,” government sources tell WIRED.

It's wrong to accuse Pete Hegseth of murder: those two Venezuelans had pre-existing health conditions.

we have to make supreme court expansion a 2028 nominee litmus test, we have to get every candidate on the record about what their plan is to rein in this rogue court of unaccountable ideologues

Adelita Grijalva Says She Was Pepper Sprayed By ICE

Rep. Adelita Grijalva (D-Ariz.) said she was pepper-sprayed by ICE agents after confronting them at a restaurant as the agents were "taking people without due process."

This is AI unfortunately. If you pause it with the arm patches in focus, you can see that the letters are just gibberish. Also, in the second clip one of them is labeled both NYPD and ICE.

If SCOTUS planned to uphold birthright citizenship, they would’ve left the lower-court rulings untouched. Taking the case is the tell. You don’t grab a 150-year precedent just to admire it. They took it because they intend to change it. Pretending otherwise is denial.

Also, “normal” (and rich) families DO need public health interventions — reliably labeled food, water without deadly pathogens waste management, almost any medicine — those all stem from some kind of public health intervention. You need and benefit from them whether you like it or not.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court just announced it will hear our case challenging President Trump’s attempt to end birthright citizenship.

Every child born on U.S. soil has a right to citizenship. We’ll see the president in court.
