It’s not enough to simply thank our veterans for their service.

Millions of them rely on SNAP and the ACA.

Many struggle with PTSD and worry about access to mental health services.

Today, on Veterans Day, let’s renew our commitment to keep fighting for those who fought for us.

A tweet from Annie (@AnnieForTruth) reads: “If you care that Mamdani is Muslim But not that Dr. Oz is Your issue is not his religion.” The post has a purple background with white text and includes a small logo at the bottom: “You Are Now RBG – Continuing Her Life’s Work.”

Think about it, MAGA. Take all the time you need.

Dear @schumer.senate.gov:

Dude…no. I mean…c’mon. Read the room, man. Don’t make me write something unkind about you. Because I’ll do it, man. I am good at newspaper-appropriate insults. Stand strong. This matters.

Precisely this.

#TrumpShutdown

“He’s having a seizure and they’re trying to rip the baby out of her hands”

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 94th day out of the last 106.

12 days of work in 106 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Seems like a good time for the Speaker of the House to swear in Rep. Grijalva.

A damn daycare. This is sick. What are we doing?

I visited Victor Cruz at the ICE detention center in Tacoma today. He should not be there.

ICE took Victor not because he committed a crime, but because he has the same name as someone else. I continue to call for his immediate release and his return to his home and family.

Popok: The blue states and cities effectively brought the cases. The red states are suffering, and their AGs are sitting on the sidelines. There’s no red state that brought a case. Think about that: not one red state attorney general brought a case to help prevent starvation and suffering. None.

We all need to fight Trump's plan for voter suppression and election subversion. We need to recognize that it has multiple dimensions. We need to educate ourselves and our communities and then take action.

Pick-Up Cuts by Trump’s U.S.P.S. Could Disenfranchise Mail Voters Read about the fight for democracy from activists, elected officials, legal experts and others.

NEW: Service cuts initiated under President Donald Trump’s first postmaster general could delay mail throughout most of the nation, putting millions of mail-in voters at risk of blowing ballot deadlines in future elections. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/pic...

These guys get $50k signing bonuses.

Stephen Miller is telling them they have immunity and encouraging them to create chaos.

They get almost no training, many couldn’t pass an open book exam & they’re allowed to hide their faces.

They’re swinging assault rifles around in public.

Abolish ICE

YouTube video by Reagan Library President Reagan's Radio Address on Free and Fair Trade on April 25, 1987

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

*1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.”

The old rulebook is gone. It's not coming back and we all need to accept that. The DOJ is weaponized. the GOP is rigging elections. Trump is literally bulldozing the White House.

Democrats need to operate under this new reality, fight hard, and play by the same rules.

This is chilling. The President is asserting authority to kill completely outside of the law. And plans to keep at it.

We are not at war, and he is ignoring the criminal laws that actually apply (eg, murder).

No limiting principle stops him from doing this to others he labels "terrorists."

A family member in Portland Oregon died unexpectedly and left behind a 2 year old husky who is currently on a 5 day hold in a shelter while I try to figure out a way to get her to me here in Portland Maine so that I can adopt her...without it costing All the Money.

Anyone have any ideas?

Democrats should be drawing up legislation right now, this very minute, to bar Trump from helping himself to $230 million in taxpayer funds from DOJ. Challenge Republicans to hold a vote on it. Push this so hard in the media that every GOP Senate and House candidate is pressed to comment on it.

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.

The President is building an army to attack his own country.

Speaker Johnson must stop blocking the results of a free and fair election. We’re demanding he do his job and swear in Adelita Grijalva immediately.

Enough is enough. Adelita Grijalva was elected on September 23. The people of Arizona have a right to be represented in Congress.
 
During today’s pro forma session, when the House is called to order I will seek unanimous consent to insist upon the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva.

I just went to the House floor to demand that Speaker Johnson swear in Adelita Grijalva, but the GOP gaveled out without even recognizing us. 
 
We’re not going anywhere. I’m here with Leader Jeffries and Adelita Grijalva. Speaker Johnson must swear her in.

Ben Meiselas calls on those with standing to act: seek an injunction to halt Trump’s White House ballroom. Argue fraud—Trump claimed he’d pay and not alter the structure—and use the damage to the East Wing as the emergency basis. Demand discovery now.

JUST IN: The White House has begun DEMOLISHING portions of the East Wing of the White House to build Trump’s $250 million ballroom — despite earlier claiming it wouldn’t “interfere” with the existing White House structure. (Washington Post)
