NEW: Texas Governor Greg Abbott has signed into law a new, deeply gerrymandered congressional map that disenfranchises voters of color for political gain.

All voters deserve to be heard. This is an affront to our democracy.

The traitorous Trump capitulates to Putin, then threatens Americans with our own military troops. This is not a real president.

Federal agents violently detained a food delivery driver as he emerged from a D.C. coffee shop Saturday morning.

The incident captured on video showed the officers throwing him to the ground and beating him before sweeping him away in an unmarked vehicle. wapo.st/45Egtkc

A deadly shooting at the CDC shook its scientists. Now they want answers from RFK Jr. CDC Director Susan Monarez convened an online all-hands meeting of the agency division that focuses on vaccines, and employees called out Kennedyโ€™s rhetoric specifically.

Exclusive: CDC Director Susan Monarez met with its vaccine-focused center to talk about yesterdayโ€™s shooting. I listened to a recording. Scientists and officials are shaken & pointing fingers at RFK Jr. Many said his vilification and misinfo turned them into targets. www.msnbc.com/opinion/anal...

What happens if you donโ€™t do background checks or training for thousands of people and you give them all total authority?

ICE has been caught looting and destroying property at Pittsburgh restaurants. They even tried to break into the safes. They loaded food, supplies and equipment into vehicles

This is Trumpโ€™s f*cked-up economy, but donโ€™t miss this point in the jobs reportโ€”if it hadnโ€™t been for healthcare, we wouldโ€™ve actually lost jobs every single month.

ICE smashed car windows in 50 cases in the first month of Trumpโ€™s 2nd term - versus 8 cases over the prior decade, per Propublica.

Staying in the car is seen as resisting arrest, even for pregnant women or scared kids, people with no criminal records.

Call / email Congress to investigate ICE!

These are all lies. Ask me how I know.

(Answer: I read the Mueller report and the SSCI report on Russian election interference, and I watched Durham come up with nothing except a Trump crime in Italy.)

Texas Republicans release a redistricting plan that could achieve Trump's aims Republicans in the Texas House have released a proposed new redistricting map that seeks to fulfill President Trump's desire to add up to five additional GOP congressional seats in the state.

Trump is realizing he's losing America and cheating is his only way back to a majority. Dems are fighting back.

Golden: America didnโ€™t vote to silence workers. Polls shows that Americans of all political stripes support unions. Thatโ€™s why the Protect Americaโ€™s Workforce Act quickly gathered strong bipartisan support.

We know that if this bill comes to the House floor, we can win.

When Donald Trump sued me and others for RICO, we didn't settle. We fought and won. Perhaps the legacy media should give that a try and stop debasing itself.
