Lived in many states & prefer the blue ones. Raised with the classics, civics, golden rule, & tolerance. Thanks mom & dad for not teaching me to hate. I believe America is worth fighting for. Unless you are going to give me a million dollars don't DM me.

The kids are not alright. For many young Republican professionals coming up today, especially men, performative ultrabigotry is social currency.

Missourians will likely not recieve SNAP benefits in November and the Trump regime defunded food banks.

He’s following Project 2025…cutting off food aid to children and the elderly.

Missouri lost 1.6 million pounds of federal food aid to Trump cuts this year • Missouri Independent

Though food banks said they have mostly made up shortfalls from the cuts, some worry coming SNAP changes will worsen hunger.

Someone explain to President Vulva Neck the White House is the people’s house.

He’s merely a temporary occupant and doesn’t get to turn it into one of his gaudy country clubs.

America's Sleeping Giant roared when police attacked civil rights marchers.

And after tens of thousands of young Americans were killed in Vietnam.

And when Nixon tried to cover up Watergate.

Today it roars once more — at the tyrant in the Oval Office.

I look at Biden as someone who fought so many personal battles. He knew how to fight for us! Trump was given everything and continues to take everything. Stunning difference and yet here we are.

BREAKING: Biden has finished several weeks of radiation therapy treatment Monday at Penn Medicine Radiation Oncology in Philadelphia. A very positive sign for the former president and amazing human being.

Willian Giménez González, a known advocate for the rights of day laborers, was abducted by federal agents in Chicago on September 12. He told me that he is now facing retaliation within ICE custody. “I was targeted for transfer to prevent my supporters from helping me,” he says. My latest.

Just because he's acting like he's never leaving is no reason for you to act like he's never leaving.

I dunno about you, but I prefer presidents who fight for Americans to have affordable healthcare, housing, food etc. versus those who promote AI videos of fighter jets bombing Americans with piles of shit.

After we broke the story of the ICE lawyer with a white supremacist X account, no one seems to be able to tell us whether James Rodden still works with the agency. Even Congress can't get answers.

ICE Still Won't Answer Questions About Prosecutor with White Supremacist X Account

Congressman Marc Veasey arrived at an ICE facility Monday in his latest attempt to follow up on the Observer's reporting.

Wow. Sidney Reid, the DC woman just found not guilty of assaulting an FBI agent, issues a withering and gutsy statement on Trump through her attorneys.

"I feel sorry for the prosecutors really, who must be burdened by Trump's irrational and unfounded hatred for his fellow man."

It's a must-read:
