Understand this: most Black people see the Graham Platner controversy through a completely different lens than most white people— our lived experience. So stop telling us it’s no big deal. It’s no big deal to YOU.

Their policies are already so unpopular, it’s no wonder congressional Republicans delayed the most harmful impacts until after the next election.

ICE just prevented me from entering an immigration detention facility in my district—a clear violation of federal law.

Members of Congress have the right to immediately access these facilities. Listen here 👇

youtu.be/yVgPZjsXxZ8?... My heart breaks thinking about this woman - she said that when she loses medicaid covered home care, the clock will start ticking to the moment she has to give up her daughter to hospital care

It is mind-boggling that the answer to the question "Should we feed the hungry and heal the sick or give more money to billionaires?" leads MAGA to this spending bill.

No union is more profound than marriage, for it embodies the highest ideals of love, fidelity, devotion, sacrifice, and family. In forming a marital union, two people become something greater than once they were. As some of the petitioners in these cases demonstrate, marriage embodies a love that may endure even past death. It would misunderstand these men and women to say they disrespect the idea of marriage. Their plea is that they do respect it, respect it so deeply that they seek to find its fulfillment for themselves. Their hope is not to be condemned to live in loneliness, excluded from one of civilization's oldest institutions. They ask for equal dignity in the eyes of the law. The Constitution grants them that right. The judgment of the Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit is reversed. It is so ordered.

Oh, Joni…

Just for the record @zeeshanaleem.bsky.social, Pete Buttigieg has never been a “moderate”. 😊

He was a progressive mayor, his policies were progressive, including expansion of the Supreme Court, & he was the most pro-union & pro-consumer.Secretary we’ve ever ever had. 👇🏾
