I hope this is just the beginning of people getting into this primary. Ed Markey shouldn't be running for re-election at 80 years old & MA has a deep bench of talent who could be really incredible in the Senate.

Rep. Seth Moulton, D-Mass., is running for Senate. “We’re in a crisis. And with everything we learned last election, I just don’t believe Senator Markey should be running for another six-year term at 80 years old,” he says in his announcement video. Moulton is 46; Markey is 79.

More than 280,000 Washingtonians will lose coverage because of the Republican health care crisis. Congress needs to extend the enhanced Affordable Care Act tax credits and reverse Medicaid cuts so families have access to health care.

The RIFs that began Friday will reportedly cut 65% of CISA’s 2,540 employees, one of the dumbest and most dangerous moves imaginable. CISA defends the nation’s cyber and critical infrastructure. Destroying it now only makes sense if you’re afraid of election integrity.

Because you called Brad Raffensperger at Trump’s request to talk about the vote count in GA because Trump couldn’t accept losing a free & fair election. Enough of Graham’s constantly playing the victim card & his amoral service in the Senate. SC can do better by electing @drannieandrews.com.

Graham: Can you tell me why my phone records were sought by the jack Smith agents. Why did they ask to know who I called and what I was doing from January 4th to the seventh? Can you tell me that?

Anti-voter advocates are trying to implement the SAVE Act through the Election Assistance Commission.

A chorus of the anti-voter rank and file is voicing their support for this move on the comments page. Don’t let them go unopposed!

The "big percentage" of Seattle was *four blocks.* Neither did Trump send in the troops.

Trump: "They actually took over a big percentage of Seattle. Think of it. You remember that. It was a while ago. And I sent in the troops and they were gone as soon as I sent them in."

The function of the American health care system is to make huge profits for the insurance and drug companies.

Not acceptable.

Our job is to fight for the U.S. to join the rest of the industrialized world and guarantee health care to all as a human right.

In 2023, #SistersinLaw podcast did a live show in Portland. We didn’t see Antifa but we were met by a huge crowd that wanted to learn about democracy. We had Voodoo Donuts & saw a lot of knitters. Today, we are all #Portland.
