Dear Pete, Donald, MAGA etc:
“What will it profit a man if he gains the world and loses his soul”
We are selling out our nation, our future, our morality, for the ego and wealth of a 79 year old man.

Andrea is one of over 170 U.S. citizens who have detained by ICE. It should never have happened, and we will hold Kristi Noem and the Trump Administration accountable.

In a massive backlash against MAGA fascism, Democrats have now swept school board elections in Pennsylvania, Texas and Ohio and defeating all terrorist Moms For Liberty candidates in the process. Much more of this please, we have a democracy to rescue. 💙👊

1) Start the worst European war since 1945 and commit every imaginable war crime
2) Decide how you want to be rewarded for your aggression
3) Leak the list of your desiderata to the US press

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.
That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.
Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

I got back to my office after the vote last night and recorded this. There's no way to sugarcoat what happened. And my fear is that Trump gets stronger, not weaker, because of this acquiescence. I'm angry - like you. But I choose to keep fighting.

This Republican shutdown isn’t about responsible governance. It’s about cruelty and control — and a president who treats hunger as a weapon against his own people.
