This is VITAL to our work, our community efforts. Micro-targeting got us into an ever smaller group of potential voters. We must be talking to everyone!! Let’s go! Proud of @kenmartin.bsky.social and his leadership at the @democrats.org

Such a great night! Empowered and energized!!

Went to an inspiring event this evening & ran into a few friends + other folks that I know @calliebarr.bsky.social @gretchengrad.bsky.social @stephenhandwerk.bsky.social @nomiindivisible.org

Together we can move mountains if we are all working towards the same goal. Glad we are on the same team!

Spitting facts. Good for him. First time in his life that he could really unload. He is right on nearly all points. Whew. Names names too. 🔥

This is just sick.

via @ktla.com: Footage obtained by KTLA shows a young man crying, saying his mother had just been taken, and children and protesters running from tear gas that was deployed when a crowd gathered at an immigration raid at a Ventura County farm this afternoon

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

GOP fundraiser pleads guilty in ‘dark money’ scheme tied to Unlock Michigan investigation Sandra Baxter, 65, of Caledonia, admitted to knowingly and willfully providing a false or misleading under oath, regarding a material fact in a criminal investigation.

Knowingly providing false information during an investigation undermines the integrity of our legal system. This plea makes clear that those who attempt to deceive investigators will be held accountable.

“A U.S. citizen!” And now he’s missing.

Adrian Martinez tried to defend a man ICE was harassing. Video shows six agents swarming him. He struggles but doesn’t lay hands on them. They take him to the ground & shove him into a CBP vehicle.

Abuse of power. Keep recording. Don’t stop.

Cutting specialized suicide prevention services for LGBTQ youth — during Pride Month, no less — is disgusting.

To our LGBTQ youth: California has your back. We’ll keep investing in resources to help you lead safe and healthy lives.

FINALLY Democrats are putting out HARD-HITTING ads.

I signed the final bills Melissa Hortman shepherded through the most narrowly divided legislature in the county. All of them bipartisan.

We debated, we found common ground, and we compromised.

That’s how democracy should function.

My family—and our entire @dfl.org community—was devastated to learn of the targeted, senseless murders of Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark Hortman, along with the attack on Senator John Hoffman and Yvette Hoffman.

This political violence must end.

Such outstanding work!!!

🚨 WALMART RAISING PRICES DUE TO TARIFFS

“We will do our best to keep our prices as low as possible but given the magnitude of the tariffs, even at the reduced levels announced this week, we aren’t able to absorb all the pressure given the reality of narrow retail margins,” Walmart CEO says.
