The Indiana House of Representatives is expected to vote this morning on the redistricting bill backed by Trump. If it passes, the state Senate is expected to take up the measure next week. If you live in Indiana, please call your representative and let them know you oppose this.

#America wasn't invented to follow cruel and despotic regimes. It was created to be the bright light, to give people everywhere a model and hope. Right now, too many Americans have lost themselves and can no longer be a bright light to anyone, least of all to themselves.

DON’T LET THEM FOOL YOU

Black Friday $ sales are higher this year because things are more expensive. So consumers aren’t buying more items, they’re just paying more them.

Tell Congress: Stand with Ukraine over Russia Contact Congress today!

After all this time, there’s no way we can bow to Putin in Ukraine!

Remind Congress that the fight against Russia is far from over.

Completely agree.
The fates of Ukraine and Europe are linked.
European security system will be destroyed without Ukraine.

You absolutely have the constitutional right to record ICE, Border Patrol, or any law enforcement officer in public, and with everything happening in Charlotte right now, people need to understand that clearly.

#TrumpOutOfTouch Thanks for your reporting! #Trump says prices & #inflarion are down. Not true! Car costs, #rent, home, auto & health insurance, food, restaurant bills, entertainment, streaming, etc. All higher. Why do most news media let him get away with this?

Much of media let him get away with

#CNBC, #HalfTime Report. I am so sick of how obnoxious and dismissive Scott Wopner is of Jimmy and others. If you don't like his views, get him off your show. Stop subjecting us, your audience, to how obnoxious you are.

Acton: I’m running against a guy, Vivek Ramaswamy, who has said that people are struggling in Ohio because they’re lazy, they’re mediocre, they’re not working hard enough. And I can absolutely tell you that is not the Ohioans I know or see. I think he’s completely out of touch.

Ron Johnson says he will show "what a miserable failure Obamacare has been." How would he know? But of course he has no plan to replace it with something better.

#Verizon mails me a promo aying they'll give me $25 off/month for 12 months (fine print: starting in month 13) for being a good #FIOS customer. I get the same promo by email with a 866 number to call. You'd think there'd be prompts for the offer. No. Go thru the options, put on hold. Disconnected 2X

The Ukrainian's need more military support from Europe & the US. The front is very long and #Russia throws more male bodies at it and cares less about them than #Ukraine. Sick. Blame #Trump and poor Western leadership, weakness. Get a spine, folks!

#Trump just eliminated the new, expanding #IRS free #tax filing online program. Why? More expense for #taxpayers & #consumers

We see it differently. Mamdani had the Democratic nomination usually resulting in more than 65% of the election vote. But he alienated so many people with his history of bigotry he barely got 50% & his opponent Cuomo, the worst possible candidate, got more votes than Adams in '21. He smeared himself

Yes. But let's not make it out to be more than it is -- a squeeker, not a triumphal victory. the start of a Progressive Wave.

Decisive? Not really. Barely got a majority. He alienated so many voters, Cuomo got more votes than most past mayoral victors. Last night's success stories were in contested elections in NJ, VA, PA & CA.
