When Border Patrol showed up across Charlotte, parents and neighbors rushed to Berryhill to meet kids at the bus stop. They stood watch, linked arms, and made one thing clear: if the city gets targeted, its children will not face it alone.
This is what community looks like.💙

People don't like what Trump is doing to the country. Why are Republicans so scared to demand better than this?

I mean, he wasn't even invited to the funerals for McCain, Bush, or Cheney!

Investigators also found that two days before the attack, the phone of Greene’s alleged co-conspirator had been used to search for “zip ties near me.”

You might not have caught what just happened on the Senate floor, but the Senate just “deemed as passed” the Epstein resolution.

That means as soon as it arrives from the House, it automatically passes the Senate (with no amendments) and heads to the President’s desk.

Wow.

I do in fact need to point out Trump’s breathtaking misogyny. Yes it’s to be expected from a serial abuser of women. Yes it’s what we fully expect from our Abuser-in-Chief.

But ceasing to call it out is its own form of normalization and acceptance.

So you better believe I’m gonna call it out.
When asked if there was anything "incriminating" in Epstein's emails, Trump pointed a finger in a female reporter's face and snapped. 'Quiet. Quiet, Piggy.'

He’s a con man
As President Donald Trump keeps saying an economic boom is around the corner, there are signs that he has already exhausted voters’ patience as his campaign promises to fix inflation instantly have gone unfulfilled.
Trump, like Biden before him, finds there's no quick fix on inflation
President Donald Trump’s problems with fixing the high cost of living might be giving voters a feeling of déjà vu.

Remember the immigration raid on the apartment complex in Chicago almost two months ago? The one with the Black Hawk helicopter and federal agents rappelling on ropes? @ProPublica decided to take a deeper look. We found little evidence to support the government’s claims. 🧵

Trump said he would release the Epstein files—until he realized he was in them.

We are watching a cover-up in real time. There needs to be accountability. The victims deserve justice.
🚨BREAKING: Oversight Dems have received new emails from Jeffrey Epstein’s estate that raise serious questions about Donald Trump and his knowledge of Epstein’s horrific crimes.

Read them for yourself. It’s time to end this cover-up and RELEASE THE FILES.
