If anyone needed another reminder of how deeply unpopular the Trump-MAGA Republican agenda is, tonight was the night.

But we cannot relent and we cannot become complacent.

The midterms are right around the corner.

Tonight was a huge win for democracy & a major blow to Trump's authoritarian rule

Voters chose Dem govs in VA & NJ, kept a Dem majority on PA’s top court, rejected an anti-voting measure in ME, chose an anti-Trump NYC mayor & are set to back fair maps in CA. Pro-democracy sweep.

This is insane.
NEW—US Department of Education sent out standard Out of Office language to employees on Wednesday in light of shutdown. Later yesterday, workers tell me they found someone had updated their auto-responses without consent to a new one blaming Democrats.

My husband is retired. Company employees/retirees have the same plan. This year we pay 25% or $1165, company pays 75% for a total of $4660/monthly. In 2026 we are to pay 25% or $1422, company pays 75% or $5668/monthly. The increase between 2025 and 2026 is $1008/month or $12096/year.

Hey, did you know my friend Fred is running for Congress?

This is very good news!
Here we are in another Republican government shutdown and my Rep is home doing photo ops instead of in D.C. trying to help working Americans. I didn't think I'd have to run to the trumpets again but I am. I'm running for Congress because I'm not done yet and neither are we. youtu.be/OSOAPMl_BSc?...

This is so funny because the cops kneeling too was so clearly the propaganda effort to depoliticize the movement, but these morons don’t understand that most people do not share their stupid grievances

Grijalva: I was looking at the example of now-Representative Walkinshaw from Virginia, who was elected two weeks ago Tuesday. The following Wednesday—less than 24 hours later—he was sworn in, with unofficial results.

So for me, apparently the rules have now changed in just two weeks.

We just want to say thank you to everyone who’s taken action! So far, three doxxing websites and one app have been successfully taken down.

Doxxing is illegal in the United States, and so are true threats. Several MAGA-affiliated individuals have already been arrested for making violent threats.

I hadn’t seen this. Kirk, the moderate free speech guy who did politics the right way per some liberals (!), called for Biden to be executed.

Meanwhile Joe Biden put out a very strong statement condemning Kirk’s killing.

Both sides!

My gut continues to tell me that the “assassination” attempt on trump last year was not real and the two people who died were political pawns. Today, what is the one thing that could get MAGA off the Epstein trail but the death of a right-wing extremist? Was he a political pawn, as well?

The night after the murder of Melissa Hortman, the Democratic legislator in Minnesota, the Yankees were at the Red Sox and neither team requested a moment of silence.

For an actual public servant.

Who we choose to hold a moment of silence for and who we do not are silences that speak volumes.
