“I Lost Everything”: Venezuelans Were Rounded Up in a Dramatic Midnight Raid but Never Charged With a Crime Authorities said Tren de Aragua “terrorists” had taken over the building. A ProPublica investigation found little evidence to back up the government’s claims. For the first time, the Venezuelans arres...

"300 agents stormed the building, rappelled from a helicopter, knocked down doors and hurled flash-bang grenades. Agents ziptied and detained many US citizens for hours..."

That part‼️

More than 47 million Americans — including one in five children — don’t have reliable, affordable access to nutritious food. And as the cost of living skyrockets, more families are depending on SNAP benefits, or food stamps, to put food on the table.

Let's show up. Let's organize. Let's win.

The next few months need to resemble the 2017 fight to save the ACA. In the end, we won. Call Congressmembers, confront them at town halls, offices, airports & fundraisers. Hold events so Congressmembers look really bad for being afraid of constituents.

Artillery Shell Detonated Over Interstate 5 During Marines’ Celebration, California Officials Say

We love our Marines and owe a debt of gratitude to Camp Pendleton, but next time, the Vice President and the White House shouldn’t be so reckless with people’s lives for their vanity projects.

Apparently, they don’t hand out a Nobel Peace Prize to those who negotiated a ceasefire they had sabotaged a year ago just to get elected.

Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection.

Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

Just a reminder, the layoffs in govt were just done out of spite, not necessity

Jared Kushner is going to the Middle East to negotiate a deal on behalf of the U.S. government days after Kushner announced a $55 billion deal between his private equity fund and the Saudi government

One of the most brazen conflicts in history.

News today that ICE shot a woman is chilling. The videos online show that there are some abusive, masked thugs masquerading as law enforcement.

Nobody deserves this. The courts need to step in.

Talarico: if you read the new testament, Jesus doesn't spend most of his time preaching or teaching or even praying. He spends most of his time healing the sick.

Right now, we have politicians in congress with Christ follower in their Twitter bio, but they are kicking the sick off their health care

The GOP health care for immigrants lie is an old one. Here’s me six years ago:

Ya know, we wouldn't have arguments on TV about who is to blame if there's a government shutdown if members of Congress had actually done their job and passed the necessary legislation to fund the government. They've only had a YEAR to do it.

11.5M+ California households will automatically see refunds on their October electric bill thanks to California's Climate Credit.

And it doesn't stop there.

Up to $60B will return to Californians' pockets going forward, cutting electric bills while moving to cleaner energy.

Donald Trump is weak. He knows he can’t win in 2026, so he’s dialing for seats and rigging elections. He has to be stopped. TikTok video by Gavin Newsom

Trump the tyrant is on full display — but his acting out highlights how weak he is Trump got his Comey indictment Thursday and issued a memo directing "domestic terrorism" investigations. And yet, both provided more evidence that Trump is losing.

ICE official confirms that the detainees who were shot were restrained when they were shot

Let’s say it plain: the Supreme Court of the United States endorsed racial profiling today.

Something folks are missing here: this raid wasn’t about “illegals taking American jobs.” It was about ICE storming the Hyundai–LG battery plant in Georgia, part of a $7.6B Metaplant project that isn’t even operational yet.

Duckworth: "Let's make it clear -- the President of the United States essentially just declared war on a major city in his own nation. This is not normal. This is not acceptable behavior."

Any Senators here?

I’m a biomedical scientist with immunology, cancer, infectious disease expertise.

RFK Jr lied to you in his confirmation hearings. Repeatedly. Provably.

He’s lied to EVERYONE for 30+ years. Repeatedly. Provably.

He WILL lie today. Repeatedly. Provably.

Ossoff: He never should have been confirmed by the senate and he needs to resign. It is one thing to be a skeptic or a reformer. It is quite another to be a fool…

Pritzker: "I refuse to pretend that any of this is normal ... I refuse to fall into the pundit trap that demands we sacrifice vital constitutional rights if it's being done in the fake guise of fighting crime."

It's really quite a thing to have a Secretary of Energy who does not understand, ummm... energy.

#Seaweed farms are a dual solution for climate change & sustainable energy.

Shuler: They want to convince people that we are each other’s enemies—that we need to fight one another to land a good job, to find a home in a safe neighborhood, that only so many of us can live with dignity at the same time.

But we are not each other’s enemies. We are each other’s neighbors

70 years ago, on this date, Emmett Till was kidnapped and brutally murdered by white men.
