This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.

Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.

This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

A bus of Bronx middle schoolers pulled up to the Capitol this morning for a long-planned field trip just a few hours after the government shut down.

All Capitol tours were cancelled as the guides can’t work in shutdown.

So I escorted them in myself and gave them a personal tour. They were great!

I’m a Congressional Candidate. I Was Assaulted by ICE. An interview with Kat Abughazaleh, a 26-year-old Democratic House candidate in Illinois, who was violently thrown to the ground twice at a peaceful protest in Illinois on Friday morning.

As I told @newrepublic.com, "Once last week, twice today, ICE has picked me up and thrown me on the ground. Honestly, it doesn’t compare to what our neighbors who are trapped inside the Broadview processing facility are going through. They’re committing crimes against humanity there."

Right-wingers are calling for my arrest. You know why? Because they know I’m the only candidate in my race who will actually stand up to ICE and Trump.

And they’re right.ο»Ώ

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption.

Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow.

People have power. Ask Target

..... hmm, I hadn't thought of it that way ..... my bad...... I need to look at it again..

How I read the numbers was 38% of gun owners are white, not 38% of white people are gun owners.

So, yeah, looking at it the other way would change things....

Bc I didn't say that or imply it. 38% of whites own guns. 24% black. 20% Hispanic. 10% Asian. What the heck does Irish and Italian immigrant history have to do with this?

'Especially white America' is lazy, inciteful, & harmful phrasing. Speaking as a gunless white blue dot in a red state. We exist. Looking quickly at some numbers, while white people do lead these categories, other races aren't far behind.
