I believe in protecting the downtrodden and minorities. I believe that Never Again really means Never Again. We have to protect animals from human ignorance, but not from the circle of life. I am part of the LGBTQ+. If this bothers you, please leave.

It shouldn't get lost that just today, Senate Republicans have voted to close nursing homes, close rural hospitals, and cut food stamp benefits for children and veterans.

Trans kids are kids โ€” they deserve to grow up without constant political attacks on their lives and medical care.

Stop the SAVE Act The SAVE Act would keep millions of people from being able to vote โ€“ and would shut countless eligible voters out of our democracy. Urge Congress to reject this bill now.

If passed, the SAVE Act would limit access to our democracy for millions of eligible voters.

The House has already passed it, but the Senate can still stop it in its tracks.

Tell your Senator to REJECT this bill in defense of our voting rights.

Why Are They Hiding Their Faces? If ICE agents' actions are perfectly acceptable, they shouldn't have to mask their identities

Why can't people care anymore? I'm so tired of all the hate. I'm a non-binary Jew. I'm not a bad person.

You know what sucks? When it gets driven home that the people you care about mean more to you than you do to them.

The Democratic Party's Path Forward Primary Democrats are offering competing visions for how the party can rebuildโ€”whose will prevail?

While it's too early to think about the race for 2028, there is a primary currently being waged among Democrats' competing visions for how to lead the party out of the wilderness. Which vision will prevail?

This isn't hypothetical.

The coming days are bringing higher prices and disrupted supply chains, this time not because of a pandemic or a war, but self-inflicted by our country's government under this president.

This is petty. The FBI has reassigned several agents simply for being photographed kneeling in solidarity with racial justice protesters in D.C. during the 2020 demonstrations after George Floydโ€™s murder.

He fell asleep during the funeral and was the only person to wear blue rather than black.

The disrespect he showed during the Popes funeral should be enough for some Christian MAGAts. But they're going to justify it somehow, I'm sure...
