A story I found about Haiti:
In 1999, a group of Haitians were tired of political disorder and dreamed of a better life in the United States. So they built a small, 23-foot boat by hand using pine trees, scrap wood, and used nails. They called the boat "Believe in God."

You care deeply? Afraid nothing we can do to make a difference? Are we feeling hopeless facing the headlines? That's exactly what authoritarianism wants. Please take moment to listen to Elizabeth Cronise Mclaughlin She offers a bit of history &shares how we can join in change making in our nation.

In case you’re wondering why Republicans have been panickingly gerrymandering as many red states as possible… just look at tonight’s election results. Virtually no good news for Republicans anywhere.

It’s absolutely wild that the U.S. government straight up murdered a boat of people who presented no threat and were charged with no crime in international waters yesterday and the national media doesn’t seem to be up in arms about that.

Just had a poignant moment. It is Memorial Day Weekend. It's taken on a different meaning as I remember the US military personnel who lost their lives. This year saying "I'm sorry" as we watch efforts that will mean the end of our grand ol' experiment. Are we not mourning of the loss our Democracy?

Pete Hegseth is clearly ill-equipped to handle the role of Secretary of Defense. His repeated failure to follow basic operational security procedures jeopardizes the safety and security of our armed forces. He should resign.

Let's be clear, what is happening to Social Security has nothing to do with fraud, or waste. Their sole objective is to break it and why? To answer, I started to look up the history. The GOP has wanted to privatize it for decades. /1

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.
Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.
Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.
