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?

People are putting the brakes on moving, so they’re pulling their homes off the market.

📌 Weak buyer demand, softening prices, and a jittery economy are pushing sellers to back out and wait for a better day.

Many can’t afford to stay, or sell. With mass layoffs, negative job growth, it’s not looking good. I don’t think Trump pushing 50 yr mortgages is coincidence. I suspect desperate homeowners behind on mortgage payments, will be targeted by predatory companies convincing them to refinance for 50 yrs.

We don’t know yet why they were shot, and I truly hope they will be OK, but one thing is certain - If Donald hadn’t been treating our National Guard like his f-n show ponies, these two Guardsman would likely be with their families right now and not lying in a hospital in critical condition. 🤬

Republicans are panicking in #TN07 🔥
Aftyn Behn turned their “safe red” seat into a real fight, forcing them to dump millions and fly in JD Vance. A people-powered campaign is cracking their grip. She’s calling out high prices, rigged tariffs, and a system that treats Tennesseans like collateral.

The lawsuit names Bloomfield Fire Chief Lou Venezia, Walter Coffey, & Bloomfield township as defendants. The township & Venezia, the suit said, failed to punish Coffey for his alleged harassment and allowed the racist environment to continue unfettered.

We know the Predator-President plays by his own set of rules and drastic measures need to be taken. I can’t imagine what our country will look like a year from now.

A word from Gov. Newsome.

Gavin Newsom: "What more evidence of authoritarianism do you need? These guys aren't screwing around. We can no longer screw around. It's all at stake. People need to wake up. We can't continue to play by the old set of rules."

Unlawful Command Influence (UCI) is often referred to as the “mortal enemy of military justice.”

UCMJ Article 37 prohibits military commanders from using their authority to coerce or improperly influence the outcome of a case. Trump and Hegseth should read it.

🧵 Stop 6 of the National Park adventure took me to Shenandoah National Park. I arrived shortly after sunrise one morning during the Govt shutdown. There was a mountain high wind warning with temps of 28F. It definitely limited my outdoor activities!

I have never seen such blatant waste of taxpayer funds as we see from this Trump admin.
These DHS commercials are asinine, unnecessary, & a pissing away of OUR money.
Did you ever see a Hollywood styled commercial from any previous DHS Secy?
Tell the Trump admin to stop wasting our money!

In June, Trump’s older sons held an event at Trump Tower where they touted a new made-in-the-USA mobile phone with an American flag on its back, plus a new wireless service called Trump Mobile.

The buyers? They’re still waiting.
