Progress not perfection.
To preserve democracy and the economic system on which it rests, the government must regulate business, protect workers, and provide a basic social safety net.

Dear the media,
When the US president claims he brokered a peace deal in a place with active combat—eg Rwanda and Congo—the story is (1) fighting rages on, and (2) US president lies.
The story is not “president touts historic peace deal.” A peace deal involves peace.
Sincerely,
Factual reality

MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

The Dems are far from perfect, but the vast majority of them seem to have the best interests of their constituents at heart, and they deserve support in an imperfect system. This cannot be said of the scum in the Rep party.

Democrat Eileen Higgins won the Miami mayor’s race, defeating a Republican endorsed by Senile Satan and ending her party’s nearly three-decade losing streak. The ‘Democratic Affordability Hoax’ will crush the GOP in the midterms.

The current president doesn't kiss babies and pat children on the head to gain votes; he calls his detractors kids' names and sexually assaults young girls - and his supporters justify it.

We already know the Trump administration has been lying about ICE “targeting the worst of the worst” — the actual numbers tell the truth.
The government’s own data shows only 15 % of those detained had any prior criminal convictions, and just 3 % were violent offenders.
