Miami has been in Republican control since 1997. Not any more. Eileen Higgins defeats Trump-backed Emilio González. Latinos for Trump, your days are numbered. Congrats Democrats.

I had fun reading to some Burke Elementary students at the Chicago Public Library today. When the Obama Presidential Center opens next year, we’ll have a new branch of the library for the community to enjoy.

The best reading of this article: Trump is going to use FDA to restrict medication abortion, but he wants to wait until after the midterms so the Republicans don't experience blowback.

But that just makes the midterms more important.

In Minnesota we’re cutting social security taxes, allowing Minnesotans to age in their homes, and investing in safe communities.

That’s what makes us the second-best state to retire. Give us a few more days above 0° and we’ll knock Florida out of #1 😎

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

The fact that SCOTUS is going to tell us who's an American and who's not is THE REASON why the Democrats must stop playing around. It's time to defend immigration as a universal good and in terms of liberty and justice for all.

Accepting rightwing lies as if they're true is how we got here.
