US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE:

"I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

ICE claim that a man shattered his skull running into wall triggers tension at a Minnesota hospital Nurses in Minneapolis doubted federal immigration officers' claims about a Mexican immigrant's severe injuries.

"Four hours after his arrest, he was taken to a hospital emergency room in Edina with swelling and bruising around his right eye and bleeding. A CT scan revealed at least eight skull fractures and life-threatening hemorrhages in at least five areas of his brain..."

Even in our polarized country, more and more people from left, right, and center are coalescing to demand change.

It's happening because a freedom-loving nation does not allow masked, militarized government agents to violate our civil liberties.

Post from Pete Buttigieg that reads: If there was ever a moment for libertarians and conservatives to step up and join the rest of us, we’re in it. 

Americans have to unite and stop this descent from a freedom-loving nation into the kind of place where masked, militarized government agents are sent to politically noncompliant areas to roam the streets, terrorize civilians, and deploy violence with impunity.

Trump is truly insane. Absolutely mad. He desperately needs psychiatric help.

U.S. job market ends a woeful year on another discouraging note If this is β€œthe greatest economy in the history of our country,” as Donald Trump recently insisted, why has job growth slowed to a 16-year low?

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.

The American people don’t want to β€œrun” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

Energy bills in US have increased 13% since Trump took office, new report finds The amount of money Americans are paying toward their energy bills has increased since President Donald Trump took office earlier this year, according to a new report.

It's a problem, not a hoax.

VA plans to abruptly eliminate tens of thousands of health care jobs Strains on the Veterans Affairs system could grow with the elimination of as many as 35,000 mostly unfilled health care positions, including doctors and nurses.

"The Trump Administration plans to abruptly eliminate as many as 35,000 health care positions at the Dept of Veterans Affairs this month...

"The cuts come after a reorganization effort already resulted in the loss of almost 30,000 V.A. employees this year..."

If Indiana legislators hold firm on their conscience today, it will among other things be a much-needed rejection of the idea that you can get your way on policy through bullying, intimidation, and threats.

Their closing message to Indiana: change your maps to artificially benefit the President's political party or 'roads will not be paved' as punishment.

They are openly saying this.

Who would want to live in a country that works like that?

Finding an option that could actually pass and stand is a near impossibility, but we need to try and stop just fighting amongst ourselves

They've done what is possible in modern political environment. Unfortunately politics suck they can only fight so much. It was nearly impossible to get ACA, they've been trying ever since to take it down I wish we could at least listen to the arguments/evidence behind universal being the best option

Post from Pete Buttigieg that reads: As a military officer, I was repeatedly trained on the law concerning illegal orders. 

Now, veterans citing this law have been targeted by the president with threats of prosecution and death - because they oppose him politically.

If the government acts against them, it will further display President Trump's thirst for the one thing our Republic cannot abide: tyranny.

Disgusted to hear of the targeted shooting of National Guard members in DC today. All Americans should unite in condemning and rejecting this violence. Sending prayers to these victims and their families, and thankful to the responders who acted so quickly.

This Thanksgiving, I’m grateful for so much - above all, for loved ones who are with us in our best and worst moments, and who remind us who we really are.

From our family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving!

You can't only focus on the negative though. Say it's 50 being immature middle schoolers, and 10 that respect what you have to say and like to discuss/debate. I think it is worth trying 🀷

5 shot, child and woman dead after tragic shooting Gov. Phil Murphy called for prayers for the victims and their families.

My heart is breaking for my hometown whereβ€”like far too many American cities and townsβ€”gun violence stole members of our community last night. I am thinking of the victims, all who love them, and our first responders.

It does not have to be like this.
