Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Why do headlines say "norms shattered" when what is meant is "laws broken" or "Constitution violated"?

I stand with Stephen Colbert.

I stand with Jimmy Kimmel.

I stand with the First Amendment.

If this became a weekly series, it would run longer than The Simpsons.

Peter Thiel is delivering 4 private sold-out lectures at a club in San Francisco—about the Antichrist The Palantir cofounder will explore how Christian theology intersects with modern technology in four private lectures merging faith and business.

I know there's <waves hands wildly> . . . a LOT going on but perhaps folks have seen this?

Hey everyone...LOOK OVER HERE! It's Lt. Col. Bone Spurs declaring war on an American city!!! Does his rough tough cream-puff cosplay make you forget about the EPSTEIN survivors, their lifetime of trauma & their courage to speak the truth in public?

Yeah, me neither.

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city.

This is not a joke. This is not normal.

Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

So maybe the problem wasn’t with the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics?

Republicans are trying to redraw congressional district lines to keep their grip on Congress in the midterms and beyond. 

Voters should pick their politicians, not the other way around.

“I was r*ped sometimes 3 times a day on that island… and I was not the only girl on that island… Ghislaine must die in prison, because I’ve been in hell and back for the last 17 years.”

Listen to the survivors.

People are constantly asking me — what can I do? Between now and the 2026 midterm elections, here are five practical steps you can take to make a difference.

Important. Clear, concise, imperative. Please watch.

A photographer’s view of ICE’s relentless courthouse arrests The shattering of faith in America's goodness is the hardest part to watch.

"Here legally, engaged in a sanctioned process to determine their eligibility for asylum, they have committed no crime. They are arrested anyway, and the lives they’ve risked to come to the United States are thrown into chaos."

🇺🇸 National Guard soldier speaks out: “I swore an oath to defend our constitution… seeking refuge is not an act of violence. Locking people up for it is.”

When you strip away humanity

Thank you for this stunning visual reminder that for all our troubles and afflictions, we are less than a speck of dust in the cosmos

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

Mark and Melissa lie peacefully at the center of our state and our hearts today. Their memorial, guarded by service dogs and men and women in uniform, casts a momentary shadow over L'Étoile du Nord as we honor their life’s work to make Minnesota shine brighter for all.

If you’re zip-tying grandmas protesting losing health care maybe you’re not the good guys in the story?

It’s a good thing Congress isn’t alive to see this

We won’t amplify it, but the president posting that Dems are “sick of mind” and “hate our country” immediately after 2 Dem lawmakers and their spouses were shot in their homes is the opposite of leadership. Gas on the fire.

You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work.
