Election Day is tomorrow! Show up and vote for Democrats across the line! We have already seen the GOP is only interested in starving the people of this nation, while our tax dollars are going to marble bathrooms, and Venezuelan dictators. When we vote Dem we all win!

An update from DC: I am here with my colleagues demanding our Republican colleagues come to back to DC to end this shutdown and work with us to make healthcare more affordable.

Adelita Grijalva can force a vote on the Epstein files, but she's still not sworn in The Arizona Democrat would be the decisive signature on a petition to force a vote on releasing the records. But Speaker Mike Johnson says he will not swear her in until after the shutdown is over.

If you have to β€œ win” by striking down the Voting Rights Act, how fucking weak are you? Seriously, you are telling the American people you know you are fascist losers and the only way to get elected is to take away the voice of the people.

Yes, Speaker Johnson. Let’s talk about things that ARE really serious. The people need affordable and accessible healthcare. All the time. Right now. Stop the shut down and get to work.

Dear ICE- let us help you: We will document you in the dark. We will document you with a shark. We will document you here or there- we will document you EVERYWHERE.

Starving children screaming for food as US aid cuts unleash devastation and death across Myanmar U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has repeatedly said β€œno one has died" because of his government’s decision to gut its foreign aid program.

The Americans starving these children wear crucifixes and call themselves β€œChristians.”

People are not what they tell you they are; they are how they behave.

Israel and Hamas agree on the 'first phase' of Gaza ceasefire deal β€” NPR The deal raises the possibility that the war may now be over, ending the bloodiest fighting ever between Israelis and Palestinians.

What’s frightening about this agreement is Trump being chairman of the peace committee in the Middle East. I yearn for our hostages to be released, but anyone watching our nation devolve into an abuser of human rights right here, should be concerned about this piece. apple.news/APYzu3C4rQ4W...

Jersey, did you know Trump is targeting our state? Delaying funding for the Hudson Tunnel Project, which is a vital part of the project to double rail capacity between New Jersey and New York City.

Stopping these funds, is illegal and completely unacceptable.

EXCELLENT. Hammer them for these grants, and make sure there aren’t any poison pills on these grants.

Two breaks in one week: FBI ditches SPLC and ADL The severed ties come days after the center criticized Trump for ending hate crime prevention funding.

When Trump’s FBI has decided that groups who stand up to hate in this nation are not necessar, or informed, or worthwhile partners- our local law enforcement must step up.

Undocumented immigrants can’t get federal benefits, including when the government is open. Not Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, food-assistance programs or any other federal programs.
