I hope Dems begin to see that moderate or progressive, AIPAC is not our friend.
They endorse January 6th insurrectionists. Yet if you so much as suggest the US uphold its own Leahy laws, no matter your record, they will work against you.

ICE policy requires the use of bodyworn cameras. Video should be available from every agent who was involved in the death of a citizen in Minneapolis.

If a miraculous and unprecedented productivity boom that could possibly happen were to actually happen, that positive supply shock would offset the negative supply shock of tariffs that are definitely happening.

The motivation of the man who shot Charlie Kirk isn't clear (although he's probably mentally unstable--duh). What is clear is it was another example of American gun violence.

I'm horrified to hear that Charlie Kirk was shot at an event in Utah.
Democratic societies will always have political disagreements, but we must never allow America to become a country that confronts those disagreements with violence.
Mark and I are praying for Charlie's recovery.

My name is Graham Platner and I’m running for US Senate to defeat Susan Collins and topple the oligarchy that’s destroying our country.
I’m a veteran, oysterman, and working class Mainer who’s seen this state become unlivable for working people. And that makes me deeply angry.

Russia-Ukraine is a preview of what Trump is trying to do here.
His absurd “deal” gives the dictator Putin everything he wants from democratic Ukraine.
At home, he is molding the U.S. after Putin’s Russia: empowering oligarchs, squashing dissent, usurping power.
