It turns out America’s last line of defense still shows up for work on time. The story isn’t about what failed. It’s about who refused...and why that matters more than ever.🔥👇

Trump WH says its prepared to “ride out” the shut down. That translates to: This was planned. It was never meant to be short…and…oh yeah…we are going to f**k things up even worse during this period of time.

Trump is stooping so low that he’s gutting the federal Office of Special Education.

Attacking students with disabilities is wrong. Every child in America deserves a fair shot at success.

Wanna stop getting calls and texts from me about Prop 50? Send your ballot in today. That removes you from the contact lists, and helps phone bankers use their time more effectively :)

"They know that in a functioning one-person-one-vote democracy, they could never pass the unpopular self-enriching policies they want. So they know they must focus on preserving and expanding the precedents that permit them to buy American democracy."

Dear @SteveScalise,

How could a rally of millions & millions of Americans simply reaffirming our founding principle of “No Kings” be a “hate America rally?” Do you not agree that we must never have kings in America? Shame on you.

Sincerely,

Your Former Congressional Colleague

If Mike Johnson is refusing to call the House back into session during the shutdown, then we’ll do the work right here the Bronx.

The New York Essential plan is being eliminated entirely next year due to the GOP healthcare cuts. People’s lives are at stake.

And that’s why we’re fighting back.

The 15 year old girl who was dragged from her car by ICE had recently had kidney surgery.

She was thrown to the ground despite screaming “I’m not resisting”

She had to return to the hospital.

These aggressive tactics will disable. They will kill.

They must be held accountable.

ICE is what happens to a society that thought democracy was a capitalist commodity to be taken for granted, bought, sold, and left to the dumbest fucks to “manage” just because they hold the guns
