TN-07 isn't supposed to be a competitive district. It isn't supposed to be a race that everyone is watching.

But IT IS.

This is what is possible when you run everywhere and you don't take any district for granted.

It’s important to support and credit the voices that knew that #DOGE was never about “efficiency”.

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

Marjorie Taylor Greene is a rat fleeing a sinking ship. She has neither apologized nor taken accountability for any of her reprehensible positions or actions in the past. We all have to be smarter than the moves she's making now.

Corporate Centrist Politics is Dying Before Our Eyes. Hallelujah! with @joyannreid.bsky.social

Mamdani embraced by Trump, MTG resignation, and the broligarchy continues making billions. Restoration must be replaced with Reformation.

Yep. Our problem is waaaayyyyyy bigger than Trump. He’s the useful idiot. Rise of fascism doesn’t end until we address the oligarchy 👇

When Border Patrol showed up across Charlotte, parents and neighbors rushed to Berryhill to meet kids at the bus stop. They stood watch, linked arms, and made one thing clear: if the city gets targeted, its children will not face it alone.
This is what community looks like.💙

Primary candidates need to support DC statehood. Anything less is unacceptable. Also, we don’t need anymore Kennedy’s! 👇
By the by, I learned this recently, lest anyone be tempted by @jackschlossberg.bsky.social’s candidacy.

This is pretty amazing. This guy just won a solid victory in Bucks County, PA, one of the most important swing counties in the country, by *explicitly and deliberately* making his race *all about* nationalizing ICE raids. Confirms the point about this now being a winning issue for Dems.

Few folks on here need a primary. 👇
These 20 House Democrats just joined Republicans in voting to fully repeal DC's police reform laws.

Wiping off the books critical laws on use of force, transparency, and preventing violent cops from getting rehired.

They think that they should have more say over DC police than the people of DC.

When we fight, we win!
NEW: Trump's DOJ sent a subpoena to a gender-affirming care clinic seeking information on patients, including minors, and its insurance billing practices. The clinic—which doesn't even take insurance—fought the demand in court and won.

A Washington judge quashed the Trump administration's attempt to subpoena patient information from the telehealth practice QueerDoc—but the fight may not be over.

Your regular reminder that eternal one-party domination by Republicans is not inevitable, Trump is not invincible, and when the far right receives even moderate pushback against their terrible ideas, they usually collapse.
multiple major setbacks for trump's effort to steal the midterm House election. CA passed their gerrymander; VA D win ensures they will pass theirs; IN refused to pass an R map, defying Trump; courts struck down TX map.

right now looks like outcome of all this could be to add *D* seats.

I'm seeing people wonder why ICE is going after Charlotte.

ICE has been at war with Charlotte's sheriff ever since he won in 2018.

We'd covered this at Bolts back in the day; this quote is from that sheriff:
“When the 8 African American sheriffs took over the largest counties in North Carolina, it became a threat to the good ol’ boy system,” says the sheriff of Charlotte. These new sheriffs broke ties with ICE.

But GOP lawmakers cracked down this week, overbidding the governor’s veto to adopt this law:
North Carolina GOP Is Cracking Down on the Black Sheriffs Who Stood Up to ICE
Boosted by new supermajorities, Republicans are closing in on legislation to mandate more collaboration with ICE and preempt local policies hard-won by immigrants’ rights advocates.
