McGowan: You're saying 46 Americans died, so we should attack this country. Here at home, 68,000 Americans die a year because they don't have health insurance. So, if we're going to spend billions of dollars on something…

OR Senator Khanh Pham stands with striking PCC union members on a picket line. Picket signs read "On Strike for Fair Pay" Portland City Councilor Mitch Green stands with PCC workers on a picket line. Picket signs read "PCC deserves Petter" "Dude where's our COLA" and "Fair Contract NOW!"

Shout out to @senkhanhpham.bsky.social and @councilorgreen.bsky.social for supporting PCC workers on the picket lines this morning. We're holding it down on Day 3! #PCCstrike #WeFixPCC

If Congress wasn’t consulted to get us into this war- how is Congress going to get us out of it? That’s a real question.

I'm sorry I reminded people that the atrocities we commit as a country do not belong to Republicans or Democrats. They belong to the United States of America. I only said it because it's true

Trump said he won't sign any new legislation until Congress passes the SAVE act which limits voter registration.
This is the first time in American history that a President has said he's going on strike.
Hilarious if you thought the Republican Party didn't like workers going on strike.

Stop talking about Kamala Harris & Hillary Clinton. The elections are over. They lost!! And no, we do NOT know what they would or would not do about anything. STFU!

We have a country being run by a psychopath and child rapist and a grotesque Congress cooperating with the scumbag!

Focus on the NOW!

Search-and-rescue crews were “flying blind” trying to rescue survivors from deadly tornadoes that hit the Midwest last week.

Why? Because Kristi Noem hadn't approved FEMA’s $200,000 contract with a tornado-tracking tool.

But she had time to spend $220 million on anti-immigrant ads. Priorities.

The SAVE America Act is a voter suppression scam. It would take away the rights of working people to make their voices heard at the ballot box.

The Senate must reject this bill.

I wonder if there was any way for them to foresee it would happen?

Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."

Glock pistol used in deadly shooting at Old Dominion University was illegally sold to shooter, a convicted felon under probation, by a man federal ATF agents knew was selling guns illegally. He previously received a "warning letter" & had to write an apology.

It's time to enforce our gun laws

Why is it all of trump's crimes are seemingly ignored? Not only by republicans, but also by democrats, SCOTUS, the world. Every day he commits crimes...every single day. What can we do? I mean now, not election day. We may not even survive until election day at this rate.
