I know things can feel heavy and hopeless at times. There is so much needless death and tragedy all around us.
When you’re feeling low, reach out to your loved ones. Tell them how much they mean to you.
Spread some love and laughter in a weary world.

Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?

The original Dem demands were:
1) Permanent ACA subsidies
2) Medicaid funding restored
3) No more blank checks for the regime (rescission)
They dropped Medicaid immediately. Went silent on rescission. Cut back to 1 year of subsidies on Friday. And surrendered today.

This is a bad deal for Americans.
Voters turned out in record numbers last wk to elect Democrats believing they would fight for working families.
We urge Senate Dems to vote NO on the reported GOP budget package, which fails to address the devastating health care crisis.

Sanders: That is a totally meaningless gesture. You can get 100 votes here and it won't mean anything because the House is not going to take it up.

You know who the real freeloaders in this country are? Not people who rely on SNAP, but corporations whose business model depends on wages so low that taxpayers have to feed their workers.

We found more than 170 such incidents since the start of the second Trump administration. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes nearly 20 children, two of whom have cancer.

It really is bizarre to me that every single member of GOP House leadership & the admin has decided their coordinated talking point this week is that the No Kings demonstrations this Sat are essentially acts of domestic terrorism. Are they that afraid of free & peaceful assembly?

Today, Trump's trying to make us comfortable with masked agents on the streets.
Tomorrow, Trump's looking to leverage this power, take advantage of our elections, and scare voters away.
We must call this what it is: a power grab that echoes the rise of authoritarian regimes.

Due process. Academic freedom. An independent judiciary. A free press. A professional civil service. A protected environment. These aren't partisan talking points; they are the pillars of a healthy nation. And every single one of them is under direct assault by the Trump administration.

Well, this has certainly escalated quickly. National Guard units patrolling the nation’s capital under Trump’s orders are now carrying firearms. The moment our military turns its weapons on American citizens will mark a point of no return.

We all know the goal was always to “own the libs.” And in chasing that, too many have given up their own freedoms just to claim a hollow “win.” What they don’t see is that the monster they fed never stops, it eventually comes for us all. And now their silence is deafening.
