No matter how hopeless I feel, there's always a little more hope inside me. No matter how faithless I think I am, there is always something to believe in.

Bannon saying they’ll ‘all be in jail’ if Democrats win isn’t politics, it’s panic. That kind of talk is dangerous. If we want free and fair elections in 26 and 28, we’ve got to call this out for what it is a threat to democracy.

I always find it interesting how the story changes when a lawyer gets to court. They can say anything they want outside of court without accountability but the rules are vastly different in court where you can get seriously penalized for lying.

Please stop falling for the MTG is a new person con.

Please.

Caught in the middle. Struggling, flailing, just trying to survive while not knowing which way to go. Which path to commit to without regret.

Some people believe holding on and hanging in there are signs of great strength. However, there are times when it takes much more strength to know when to let go and then do it.

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

"We have bowed at altar of caution and we have paid a mighty price."

Last night proved it again: their policies lose because they’ve never been popular. Every small win adds up. We still hold the power, no matter how much of our money they spend trying to make us forget it. Keep showing up. It’s working.

Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

if Zohran Mamdani wins , it won’t just be a win for NYC it’ll be a win for everyone who believes politics can still mean something real. fingers crossed.

But you can't make people listen. They have to come round in their own time, wondering what happened and why the world blew up around them. It can't last.

This is an excellent idea!!!

most men and women will grow up to love their servitude and will never dream of revolution.

My law firm is currently litigating 13 redistricting cases and an additional 50 voting and election cases. 63 lawsuits and those numbers are growing. While this is a lot for a firm with fewer than 60 lawyers, I am proud that we helping to defend free and fair elections and democracy in court.🗳️⚖️💪

Hello, New Jersey! There’s a lot at stake in this election, and I’m here tonight to talk about why @mikiesherrill.bsky.social should be your next Governor. Watch live:

Obama: As for the president, he has been focused on critical issues like paving over the rose garden so folks don't get mud on their shoes and gold plating the Oval Office and building a ballroom… If you can't visit a doctor, don't worry. He will save you a dance.

Cool optics bro

Texas raised me, but it’s getting harder to recognize her. Being a woman, being queer it feels like the state’s closing its heart to us. I keep wondering how long you can love a place that doesn’t love you back.

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.

I still hope there’s a quiet circle of good people fighting back somewhere. But deep down I know there may not be and that thought chills me to the bone.

Leaked document. Yikes, things are about to get much worse. It looks like we’re on the verge of becoming a military state across the country. Step out of line, and the man come and take you away.

Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."

Stephen Miller’s wife Katie loses her shit and comes complete unglued because she claims that when Cenk said “the Millers lie” that was an anti-Semitic comment. Totally unhinged wacko.
