Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman was a friend who worked with Gabby to stop gun violence. We’re thinking of her children, who've now lost both their parents, and we’re praying for Sen. Hoffman and his wife, who are still fighting for their lives.
Stay strong.
Stay strong.

Thank you! It seems the entire fleet of Fox shows talked about our town hall. Just shows they can’t handle #realnews
Jim Acosta's Townhall Last week was phenomenal. Hannity is an 🍊Turd Ass kisser working for a faux News station that had to pay Millions to Dominion Voting for purposely promiting false stories about 2020 election. Thanks @jimacosta.bsky.social for all you do.

Don’t know who needs to hear this but claiming that you’ve prevented lots of really bad things from happening to our enemies is another way of saying that you’ve been aiding our enemies.

Phang: We don’t need the Ten Commandments hanging in Texas schools. What we need is common-sense gun legislation—so the kids can live.
If my kid goes to a public school in Texas and they can’t come home alive, I don’t give a shit about the Ten Commandments being posted on the wall.

President Trump has moved to strip Temporary Protected Status from thousands of Venezuelans living legally in the U.S., and they now could face imminent deportation.
What's next for Venezuelans after Supreme Court allows Trump to revoke protected status?

Don’t come near me with a single syllable cruelly questioning, criticizing, or attacking President Biden. Don’t you dare.

I took this pic of then Vice President Joe Biden in the Oval Office back in September 2015. I’ll never forget how, during the 2020 campaign, he would make a point of saying the press is NOT the enemy of the people. Thinking of President Biden as he takes on this next battle. Godspeed Mr. President.
