I mourn these lives and pray for the safe return of every hostage still held and for every family whose lives were torn apart by these atrocities. In the aftermath of that day, Prime Minister Netanyahu and the Israeli government launched a genocidal war: adeath toll that now far exceeds 67,000; with the Israeli military bombing homes, hospitals, and schools into rubble. Every day in Gaza has become a place where grief itself has run out of language. I mourn these lives and pray for the families that have been shattered. Our government has been complicit through it all. This must end. The occupation and apartheid must end. Peace must be pursued through diplomacy, not war crimes, and our government must act to end these atrocities and hold those responsible to account. These last two years have demonstrated the very worst of humanity. We must answer it by modeling the very best: a relentless pursuit of our higher ideals and an unwavering commitment to universal human rights.β

Sixteen years ago this month, President Obama quietly made history. In the middle of the night, he became the first President to witness the return of fallen soldiers. He later spent six hours with the grieving families.
A powerful reminder of what a real Commander-in-Chief looks like.
The same kind of people who once hunted escaped slaves now wear ICE badges. History didnβt vanish, it rebranded.

While critics try to paint Chicago as something to fear, the rest of the world knows the truth β this is the best big city in America.

Swear me in NOW! @SpeakerJohnson !" followed by a reply from @GavinNewsom , Gavin Newsom, saying, "It's not even November and the GOP are already rigging elections." Below, a news headline from McClatchy by Nikki McCann Ramirez dated September 30, 2025, reads, "DEM SAYS MIKE JOHNSON IS DELAYING HER SWEARING-IN TO PREVENT EPSTEIN VOTE," with a photo of Adelita Grijalva smiling at an event in Tucson, Arizona, on Tuesday, September 23, 2025.

Over 80% of Americans want them released. Its the only thing that a majority of this country agrees on.
I grew up going to Zabar's. So many of my childhood memories center around the best lox in NYC (which is saying something). With Saul Zabar's passing today, the Upper West Side has lost a legend who turned his parent's humble store into a culinary institution.

The CFPB has returned over $21 billion to Americans who were cheated by big banks and giant corporations.
But Trump has tried to destroy the CFPB, choosing big corporations over scammed Americans.
The case is in the courts now, and Democrats are united behind the CFPB.
