Dems have the wind at our backs, America clearly knows the GOP owns the shutdown and inflation, and THIS is how Schumer makes the most of it? How about demanding the military leave blue cities and ICE stop terrorizing Americans? I can't with this guy anymore.

Democrats just ran the table, winning the marquee races -- NJ and VA sweeps, NYC mayor, CA prop, PA Supreme Court -- and lower-profile races in red and purple states across the nation.

If the media you're reading or watching paints this as anything but a massive win, stop reading or watching them.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

"Leaving his home in Ontario to work at a food bank Thursday morning, Carlos Jimenez pulled over to warn a group of federal agents that they should wrap up their stop of a car quickly because school-age children would soon gather there to take the bus, his lawyers said Sunday."

Vladeck: Even if you accept the predicate that these drug cartels are foreign terrorist organizations, that still doesn’t get you anywhere close to legal authority to use military force. They’re trying to blur and sort of collapse the distinction between two regimes we have…

SNAP benefits have amounted to about 1.5% of the federal budget. The fraud rate is under 1%.

42 million Americans, many of them elderly and disabled, depend on this food assistance through no fault of their own.

16 million are children.

Scammy text appeal seeking donations for the "No Kings Act" which will be "500% MATCHED"

Scammy text appeal seeking donations for the "No Kings Act" which will be "500% MATCHED"

PSA: The No Kings PAC is not affiliated with and had no role in putting on the 10/18 mobilization. If you get a spammy text from them claiming your donation will be 5x matched, know that it's not from anyone involved in the No Kings protest (and please direct your angry emails to them, not us)

When a chatbot gets something wrong, it’s not because it made an error. It’s because on that roll of the dice, it happened to string together a group of words that, when read by a human, represents something false. But it was working entirely as designed. It was supposed to make a sentence & it did.
