He just spoke on the Senate floor for over 22 hours, standing up (both literally and figuratively!) for the American people. Well done, Jeff!

For folks asking if they've made it *inside* a Home Depot yet as the business has clearly just continued letting agents do whatever they want in their lots, the answer is yes. This is from yesterday in Evanston.

Threads post from julieceye

At my local Home Depot today in Evanston, IL. They abducted 5 people in my immediate area.

Not a basketball court or a bowling alley.

Republicans sound ridiculous making that comparison.

This isn’t an “upgrade” to the White House, it’s a monument to himself. Trump has no intention of ever leaving — he’s building his own palace and tearing down the entire East Wing to make it happen.

“.. they are just grabbing people, putting them in cuffs,” said Kaden Cummings, 23, who witnessed the arrests. “Nobody’s identifying themselves .. There’s no due process .. It’s just straight to the back of a van if you’re African on Canal.”

North Carolina moved closer Tuesday to dismantling a historically Black congressional district in a move one of its former representatives described as “blatant discrimination.” www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The GOP-led Congress has been out of session for too long. The House is not shut down. They’re getting paid and should be working.

A tweet from Tim Walz reads: “18,000 Minnesota federal employees are facing unemployment while you’re sitting on your ass. Get back to Washington.” It quotes a tweet from Pete Stauber that says: “No better way to end a beautiful weekend in Northern Minnesota!” with an attached photo showing a cozy outdoor fire pit surrounded by chairs, wood stacks, and string lights at sunset.

Speaker Johnson is spewing the same lies to avoid swearing elected AZ Dem #AdelitaGrijalva.

Arizonans are in need of assistance only she can provide.

He's real desperate to keep the Epstein files from releasing, isn't he?

ICE arrested a Chicago father whose 16-year-old daughter has Stage 4 cancer. It’s spread to her bones, and she’s undergoing aggressive treatment to try to save her life. They don’t know if she’s going to make it—and all she wants is her dad back. This is cruel, and it’s not making anyone safer.

Ted finally deleted this lie over 24 hours later. Only the 900th time he has posted a fake right-wing internet lie. You would think a US Senator would take a few minutes to make sure these things are legit, but we are talking about Ted Cruz.

Ernst: "I think it is extremely important that we look at who is funding these protests. We have to get to the bottom of this. It could be the usual suspect -- George Soros."
