Rep Steve Cohen attended in Memphis but it seems only his primary challenger was invited to speak.

Take note of all these people turning out for protests in small towns in red states.

Remember them the next time you’re inclined to write an area off because β€œthey voted for this.”

US immigration is one of those things where most Americans have preconceived notions of what they think is true. When they are confronted with reality, if they let their brains expand a little to accept the new info, they are usually shocked to learn that everything they thought they knew was wrong.

It’s painfully clear. By refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva, Speaker Johnson’s covering up Jeffrey Epstein’s global sex-trafficking ring.

Hey GOP: Bring back the House, cancel your health care cuts, reopen the government and release the files.

I can totally understand needing a break from the doom scrolling. You have a valuable voice here & I hope you decide to return. This is 1 place to reach people when there's important news & we need knowledgeable voices to cut thru the nonsense.

I'll never go back to the hellhole that X became.

When I was 10, I was a gymnast. Our team was heading to a 2-week summer camp & we had a slumber party at the gym the night before leaving. Some deranged parent decided to show us that movie. Then we drove through miles of corn fields on our way to camp. I was terrified. I've hated that movie since.

Between the illegal strikes in the Caribbean and the Hegseth speech debacle, a lot of people have been calling for military leaders to resign. This resignation speaks volumes.

I'm a member of the Democratic Party. I'm a Jewish woman born and raised in the US. My only interactions with law enforcement are a couple of speeding tickets.

So she and her lying face can f*** right off.

Is this pending invasion of Venezuela and oil grab disguised as a war on drugs? This is outrageous and makes all of less safe.

So we think that CBS News is going to become the next WaPo? Occasional real news to make them seem serious while publishing mostly batshit op-eds and non-news fluff?

These aren't kids. And if they were, we should be modeling and teaching them what is acceptable. The VP is a white supremacist and an antisemite so he wants us to ignore how vile he and the regime actually are.

ICE is recklessly throwing tear gas into our neighborhoods and busy streets, including near children at school and CPD officers.

The Trump Administration must stop their deployment of dangerous chemical weapons into the air of peaceful American communities.

Isn't this censorship of exactly the kind they accused Biden of doing and for which they sued his administration?

They are the most hypocritical lot in history.

Healthcare or the CDC or NOAA or OSHA or whatever else we need to survive in this place. Tell the president to keep his hands off our money and make sure he's held accountable.
