Can we just take a minute and acknowledge that our POTUS is right OUT IN THE OPEN lobbying Congressional members to vote against releasing the Epstein files?! Like... what the fuck else does anyone even need to know?

The President of the United States is willing to see children go hungry to make a political point.

Despicable.

#AOC: “What makes the leadership of this moment so crucial, is about trust and cooperation — we will need to work together and as a team in order to usher our country through this very dark time.”

Q: Is the president considering a pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell?

LEAVITT: It's not something he's talking about or even thinking about at this moment in time

(Not a no!)

81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.

So Trump says he has to “bring in” foreign talent because American workers don’t have it. I also notice he says “No YOU don’t have it, instead of WE, Americas President is a literal foreign agent

WATCH — @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social : “My amendment would redirect that $40 BILLION from Argentina to fund the ACA subsidies for two years… a far better use of taxpayer dollars.”

Why do we have money for Argentina while our own people lose their health care? How does this make us great?

Aftyn for Congress FEED KIDS. FIX ROADS. FUND HOSPITALS.

Mike Johnson's stalling AZ's Rep in the hope that a GOP will win this special election for TN Dist. 7 on Dec. 2. It would be very cool if the Dem candidate Aftyn won....

Texas Banned Abortion. Then Sepsis Rates Soared. ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis is the most detailed look yet into a rise in life-threatening complications for women experiencing pregnancy loss under Texas’ abortion ban.

Pregnancy became far more dangerous in Texas after the state banned abortion, according to our analysis, which found the sepsis rate for women hospitalized as they miscarried in the 2nd trimester shot up by more than 50%.

Easily several hundred people have packed into this plaza in Chicago's North Center tonight in response to ICE abducting a daycare worker early this morning.

This is a neighborhood that has largely been spared until now from the "Midway Blitz" terror campaign. But everyone knows someone affected.

Excessive force. PERIOD!

They called them “violent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor.

📌 Keep sharing videos, everyone, because they’re evidence.

i’m at damen/belle plaine in chicago’s north center neighborhood for an emergency anti-ice rally.

around 7 a.m. this morning, masked federal agents chased a preschool teacher *into* nearby rayito del sol and abducted her—in front of traumatized children, parents, and coworkers.

ICE is not terrorizing gang members, they’re terrorizing community members.

The resistance to fascism is alive & well. The resistance to cruelty is alive & well. The resistance to golden bathrooms & ballrooms is alive & well. The resistance to a madman who singlehandedly fucked up the economy for middle class/working class Americans is alive & well.

I remember it too! I never thought we’d have to fight for our rights again.
