"I think in a free country we should be able to post onto the internet, 'hey, there are masked agents on Broadway and Vine and not have the government or the tech oligarchs prevent us from doing that.' Shame on you, Tim Cook."

George Hardy, Tuskegee Airman Who Fought in Three Wars, Dies at 100

Col. George Hardy, Tuskegee Airman, veteran of WWII, Korea, Vietnam, who had to fight for the chance to serve the nation with honor and valor.

His story is one we should know. His service should not be lessened by those who want history to look a certain way.

Jayapal: It is a strange and bizarre time when we literally have a president thinking about plating the ballroom in goldβ€”while he’s thrown 15 million Americans off healthcare, fired over 150,000 federal workers, and is threatening to fire even more if we go into a shutdown.

The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality.

I don't know how to yell any louder.

DOJ has now scrubbed its website of a study that found domestic terrorism is far more likely to come from the RIGHT than the LEFT. We need Democrats that are ready to counter this bullshit narrative from Sen Eric Schmitt (R-MO). They’re coming for freedom of speech, fight back‼️

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

Thinking about the family of Representative Melissa Hortman & her husband who were assassinated at the hands of a radical MAGA shooter in June.

Melissa was doing such important work for the state of Minnesota & this country-we grieve her loss & demand strict gun reform legislation.

The Plaque that was made to honor the Police who served and fought against Domestic Terrorists during the January 6th Insurrection was thrown on the floor in the basement of the White House now because Trump who pardoned the Insurrectionists doesn’t like what it stands for! 😑

Will be interesting to see which news outlets omit his years of violent white nationalism. I'm guessing practically every single one.

For everyone saying political violence has no place in this country…

Remember two Democratic legislators were shot in Minnesota just this year.

And America shrugged and moved on.

β€œThey’re taking our jobs” was always a lie. Alabama proved it.

Alabama tried a β€œtough” immigration law, and it backfired hard. Immigrants fled, crops rotted, and farms collapsed. Americans tried to step in but couldn’t last a day.

They’re not taking your jobs; they’re doing the jobs you won’t do.

I'm gonna need dems to get out there and be like "RFK and the republicans who enable him want your children to die" bc that is what is happening. Like, it's not just RFK, he is being supported and enabled by the rest of that death panel ass cult of a party

The actions today by the Florida SG were a disgrace but not a surprise. He traffics in performative politics.

Most polls show strong bipartisan support (80%) for childhood vaccine requirements

Go to healthychildren.org for all information related to childhood vaccines and ignore the nonsense
