In 1863, Lincoln boldly declared, “A government of the people, by the people, for the people.” Fast forward 161 years, and it’s clear we now have a government of the billionaires, by the billionaires, for the billionaires. What a betrayal of the very ideals that once defined our democracy.

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

I think she sees what’s about to happen to her constituents when those ACA credits expire. I’m still not sure her motives are genuine, but at least she’s acknowledging it.
If only Lankford or Bice would wake up. #Oklahoma #OklahomaBlueDot

Why are there not enough people screaming? Where is our spirit of duty? Humanity is escaping us.

The fact this is not top story being played everywhere shows how far we’ve already fallen. Children being torn from their beds in the middle of the night should be dominating every headline - but silence is exactly how people let things happen. History shows us where this leads when we look away.

Healthcare should be affordable and recognized as a human right. We should have the best healthcare in the world offered to all Americans. Imagine a country where no one had to worry if they would go bankrupt due to medical bills.

Apple pulled an app warning people about ICE raids after Trump’s DOJ leaned on them.

If they can erase an app that protects them, they can erase one that protects you.

Today it’s immigrants. Tomorrow protest organizers. Next week your privacy tools.

Go look at HUD’s official site right now:
HUD.gov isn’t a campaign rally - it’s supposed to be a housing agency. Using a federal website to scream “Radical Left” is propaganda on the taxpayer’s dime.

Arizona just elected Adelita Grijalva to Congress in a landslide. She’s ready to work. Speaker Mike Johnson hasn’t sworn her in yet. Every day she waits is one less vote for AZ-07 and one less signature for transparency on the Epstein files. Seat her now.

Adelita Grijalva’s win means success for House petition to force vote on Epstein files

By winning a special election for her late father’s U.S. House seat, Adelita Grijalva represents the final signature needed to force a vote on releasing the Jeffrey Epstein files. The Tucson Democrat ...
