AOC: You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to keep people from getting poisoned, from dangerous chemicals

You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to bring down the cost of housing

If they want to say that that's a Democratic priority, they're right,

I am sounding the alarm that the GOP is engaged in an all out attack voting rights and free and fair elections. Voter suppression, gerrymandering, and troops in blue cities are just some of the ways they are using to try to rig the rules to keep power in 2026 and beyond.

Pay attention and act!

Hey JD Vance these 20s, 30s & 40 year olds don’t qualify as kids anywhere! Not kids but they do qualify as bent twisted adults who are in much need of psychiatric help! Don’t go closing down their healthcare too soon!

Instead of making excuses for them, maybe work on releasing the Epstein files!

Also, if you start thinking about America first, maybe you could release the Epstein files exposing all the sex trafficking child rapists contained within!

Sanders: Saturday, millions of people are going to come out on a No Kings day. Speaker Johnson said this is a hate America rally because people are coming out expressing their concerns.. It’s not a hate America rally, it's a love America rally.

I’m old enough to remember when we had a system of checks & balances that involved Congress, when Congress controlled the purse and legislated, and the president respected the Constitution & rule of law. I’m old enough to remember when a U.S. president wouldn’t want to be King George or a dictator.

Q: This has been reported for a while. Cory Mills was accused of beating a girlfriend in his DC apt. Are you concerned about these allegations?

JOHNSON: You have to ask Rep. Mills about that. He's been a faithful colleague. I don't know the details. Let's talk about things that are really serious

AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

I am sure glad that Rump and company have so many untrained thugs keeping the peace in Portland!

How much money is being spent by Rump and MAGA Republicans to occupy Portland so they can protect portlanders from listening to street singers!

Release the Epstein files you clowns!

JD Vance makes excuses for young kids say horrific stupid things! He doesn’t say what the cutoff age is? Is it 13, 14,15,18? Are these repugs really young boys?

Clearly the majority of the men sex trafficking young women & raping children in the Epstein files don’t qualify for his exemption! VOTE!

The Vice President of the United States will not unequivocally condemn Young Republicans for saying that their perceived political opponents should be sent to gas chambers.

A window into @jd-vance-1.bsky.social's disgraceful character.

The Daily Beast @thedailybeast.bsky.social · 1d

Vice President JD Vance downplayed the severity of racist texts leaked from a Young Republican group chat, dismissing the criticism as "pearl clutching" and attempting to draw attention to a Democrat texting scandal instead.
