New Jersey Dem Cast lead. Andy Kim won. The work to change our state & our party has only begun. Democracy is worth fighting for everywhere, every time.
Pinned
I’m not done.

I still believe in us.

I still believe in the promise & potential of this country.

I know democracy is always worth the work, the headache & the heartache.

I’m ready for the next round.

I will RESIST!

Who’s with me?

Project 2025, the Big Beautiful Bill, & the Epstein files have at least one thing in common: All share a belief senior citizens are disposable because costs to corporations are more important than human lives. #GivingProDeathVibes

We know why Mar-a-Lago was the location from which so many women were trafficked

The real question is, why didn't the mainstream media cover this story back in 2015, when they could've saved us from this nightmare
Rep. Robert Garcia: "Why was Mar-a-Lago a location where women continued to be trafficked from. We have questions for President Trump. And the broader issue here is why wasn't this investigated when these accusations were heard by the FBI years ago?"

Ol’ Girl had her boytoy out in the hallway?

So Corey LoserDowski has had a US Senator manhandled and cuffed AND fired a Coast Guard pilot for losing a blanket that belonged to his lady love??? Not appointed to any position…. A “special” government employee??

Damn….
This flew under the radar, but it shouldn’t have.

When senator Alex Padilla was tackled by DHS, Kristi Noem’s side piece, Corey Lewandowski, was orchestrating the situation in the hall.

I previously shared #NickFuentes' outrageous comments about all women deserving to be sent to a gulag. It was SO outrageous, that people thought it was an AI deepfake.

I'm sad to report that it is not. That is what this incel nutcase actually said.

Did Nick Fuentes say 'all women' should be 'sent to the gulags'?
Fuentes said, "The No. 1 political enemy in America is women."

Irish national—married to US citizen, valid work permit, green card pending—thrown into ICE's "concentration camp." His story rips the mask off: Not safety, just cruelty. Locked up, dehumanized, family shattered. This isn't America. Shut these camps down. Demand justice. #sheshed

When the president shares images of Black people as apes, that's no "joke." No hiding behind "sarcasm," "someone else posted it," or excuses. You're a straight-up racist piece of shit fueling hate. Call it what it is—bigotry from the top. We won't let it slide. Stand up, shut it down. #sheshed

The SAVE Act is voter suppression with a fresh coat of paint.

Change your name, survive abuse, lose paperwork & suddenly you’re told to prove you deserve a damn vote.

Women deserve better than bureaucratic bullshit!

With ICE set to spend $38.3 billion of taxpayer funds on US detention centers in 2026, Adolf Hitler explains why immigrants are still the favorite whipping post of the man JD Vance called "America's Hitler":

"The more economic difficulties increase, the more immigration will be seen as a burden."

It sounds like China is done playing nicely with the withered, old, fermented tyrannical tangerine who holds power in only America.

If you think that China can't or won't show up on our collective door steps then you've not been paying attention.

In a shocking twist that everyone saw coming, per Newsweek, ICE jailed people illegally 4,400 times, hundreds of judges rule.

It's time to declare ICE a domestic terrorist organization.

No religion, government or person is perfect.

Which is why the U.S. Constitution's First Amendment, which GUARANTEES the right to practice ANY--or NO religion--is a watershed in world history.

If slavery was America's original sin, separation of church and state is its salvation.

Raw Story: Pam Bondi has faced a “MAGA media backlash” after deflecting from a question about Jeffrey Epstein by pivoting to the strong performance of the economy, a backlash so fierce that one political expert suspects she might get the boot from Trump.

What's more likely to happen with the SAVE Act? Voter suppression, not voter fraud prevention.

The GOP is using this bill as a Trojan horse to restrict voting rights and maintain their power.

"BABY JAIL"

There are hundreds of preschoolers, toddlers & babies in this "BABY JAIL!"
HUNDREDS!

And it's all being paid for on your dime, with your taxpayer dollars & being done in your name!

Imagine the trauma, the harm, the abuse!
