I just gave $1,000 to @indivisible.org to primary Senate Democrats.

I'm so mad about the ORGANIZED betrayal of Senate Democrats, I might give them another $1,000.

Each one of you to deserves a primary. Every Last One. #PrimaryThemAll

You underestimate how mad we are....

Whoa … this is really strange.

Federal law enforcement managed to confiscate almost two tons of cocaine, and arrest 3 suspects, without blowing the boat out of the water or killing anyone.

“Kill all boats no matter where they are going or what they possess” isn’t a strategy, it’s just a killing spree

BERMAN: Would it be legal for police in Arkansas to kill suspected drug dealers on a boat in a lake?

TOM COTTON: The premise of your question is not well-founded

BERMAN: The answer is no. It would not be legal to kill them.

Hakeem Jeffries will never lead the Dems where they need to go in order to help the people.

He will choose restoration over reform because he has been groomed by the Establishment.

I wish people could finally accept this.

The good news:

1) Aftyn Behn moved a ruby red district 12 points more blue.

2) She can and should run again in the midterm election.

3) With real investment and good candidates, every R+ 7 or less seat is now in play.

The bad news:

Rural white voters are still the absolute worst.

Agents in Key Largo, Florida ripped this woman wearing medical scrubs out of her car as she screamed she is a US citizen. Agents cuffed her and put her in one of their cars.

She was eventually let go, per David Goodhue of the Miami Herald, who also took this footage:

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.
