Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.

Less than a month since a crash that took 67 lives, Trump is firing hundreds of federal employees who inspect and maintain air traffic control communications, radio and computer systems. 

This is extremely dangerous and could have deadly consequences.

Books are humanizing; social media is radicalizing.

Books may appear passive, but they are energizing. Social media may appear active, but it numbs and stupefies.

As any Freshman economics major will tell Donald, tariffs are imposed on the IMPORTING NATION—NOT the exporting nation. This means AMERICAN businesses will now pay 25% more for many essential goods and raw materials they import from abroad. (1/4)

The orange man’s purge of the Inspectors General isn’t just illegal—it’s a direct attack on our democracy and puts the safety of every American at risk. This reckless move must be reversed, and my colleagues and I demand that he comply with the law, no excuses.
Donald Trump's brazen attempt to purge Inspectors General violates the law, attacks our democracy, and undermines the safety of the American people.

My fellow Ranking Members and I are demanding he reverse course and comply with the law.

it’s wildly irresponsible for mainstream media to call romantasy books “smut” or “p*rn” in out-of-context headlines during an era of increasing book bans and purity culture hysteria.

this mischaracterization and willful ignorance of an entire genre is how you normalize book bans.

Reading has always been political.
