We asked the judge to issue a broad order โ one that applies to every National Guard unit in every state  โ stating that none of them can be deployed to Oregon.

Republicans are recycling a new lie: claiming Democrats want a shutdown to fund โfree health careโ for unauthorized immigrants. False. 
Democratsโ plan extends ACA subsidies & reverses Trumpโs Medicaid cuts. Nothing in it opens eligibility to the undocumented.

Mikie Sherrillโs unredacted military records were ILLEGALLY leaked in a vile smear campaign.

Fascism will not stop until we crush it ourselves. It thrives on silence, feeds on fear, and survives on the hope that you will look away. Do something or it wins. Every second of hesitation is surrender. The fight is now, and the enemy is already inside the room.

Statement from VoteVets regarding the doxxing of Mikie Sherrill: Jack Ciattarelli - like Donald Trump - has no respect for Veterans and no regard for our military. Illegally releasing records for political purposes is a new low even for them. If this can happen to Congresswoman Sherrill, it can happen to any of us. Every veteran and military family member should be on alert and every voter in New Jersey who cares about the integrity of our defense department should be prepared to show up in full force to vote for Mikie Sherrill this November. -MAX ROSE SENIOR ADVISOR TO VOTEVETS VoteVets
Jack Ciattarelli, just like 47, shows 0 respect for Veterans & no regard for our laws. If GOP operatives can illegally target Congresswoman Sherrillโs service records, they can & will target ANY of us. 
This is an attack on every veteran & every American.

The Lincoln quote is fake. PolitiFact: Jan. 27, 1838, he said re: the perpetuation of our political institutions. "[When] is danger to be expected? It must spring up amongst us. [Not] from abroad. If destruction be our lot... As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide."

Daughters are no longer raised to be wives. They're raised to be people. And some people are really not okay with that. They're not being taught to sacrifice themselves for the comfort of others. Not being told that marriage is the finish line. Not being conditioned to make themselves smaller to be loved. They're being raised to earn their own money, choose their own timing, live alone if they need to, and not apologise for wanting more. They're building lives where love is welcome but not begged for. They're questioning things their mothers had to silently accept. They're choosing healing, not just habits. And for people who are used to obedience, that kind of freedom looks like defiance.

I volunteer at the local animal shelter, and so I get the weekly volunteer newsletter (yes, it is called The Pupdate) which includes all the animals that got adopted since the last Pupdate, all of which is to say that I want you all to know that a chicken named Stevie Chicks got adopted this week.
