America has lost a titan in the struggle for civil rights and racial justice. From his days at the side of Dr. King, to his moral leadership in this century, Rev. Jesse Jackson, Sr. spent his life pushing our nation closer to its own ideal.

Interestingly the NFL used Jesse Jackson's message this year .... #RIP
“I am somebody” shaped how millions of us saw ourselves as kids, including me. That message mattered. It still does.

Rest in power, Jesse Jackson

The White House first invents a problem, then uses that to justify infringing upon our rights.

CBS spiked Stephen Colbert's interview with James Talarico.

But the segment is posted on YouTube, and you can view it below.

Take a moment to watch an interview that CBS and the FCC don't want you to see.

It already has over 1M views.

Let's give it millions more.

State Rep. Mark Hiner handled questions about Leslie Wexner’s $10,000 donation to the Ohio House Republican Caucus in 2025 about as bad as anyone I have ever seen.

Florida: we deported all your hard working employees, but have no fear, we're bringing back child labor to fix it.

Seems like Democrats have all sorts of messaging opportunities here
Florida AG James Uthmeier: "We need to focus on getting people into the workforce even earlier. We passed legislation last year to help high school students get their hands dirty and get on job sites more quickly."

I think that the Trump administration's position toward 🇺🇦is disgraceful! I think the effort to force 🇺🇦into a surrender deal with Putin is shameful! I think the effort that Putin/Trump are making to profit off the misery & death of the 🇺🇦people is a historic error...

Tim Miller on Rubio's speech: "A respect for the rule of law and a respect for the beautiful and great things that have been created in Western culture... it requires continued work and effort and commitment to those values. And these guys are a straight attack on all of them."

Since CBS did NOT want this aired Stephen Colbert posted it online. I think everyone should get to see it since the administration doesn't

I never thought I’d see the day.

Americans being told by the rest of the world to fight for our own democracy.

We should never have gotten here.

Keep resisting. ✊🏽

No, he's just the symptom of the rot. It's the Republican party and the Conservative party destroying the west. With help from Russian money it's all about the greed of the republicans and conservatives.

The most beautiful response to the arrogance and crude ignorance of Marco Rubio and to that inhuman nightmare of resentment and anger that is the MAGA world.
