We want to set the record so he is remembered for what he did. Alex put his body between a woman and imminent danger (murderous thugs(ICE)), and he lost his life.

Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old U.S. citizen and Minneapolis resident, was murdered by ICE today. He was a lawful gun owner. Our government saw his Second Amendment right as a threat and executed him in the streets.

Republicans are lazy.

They gerrymander their way into power and never lift a finger again. Do you think they have ever put a petition together and worked hard enough to get something on the ballot and then knocked doors to get voters out so it will pass?

No. They are lazy freeloading sloths.

Greta Thunberg is being tortured in Israeli captivity, as revealed by fellow activists:

“They dragged little Greta by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others”

Donald Trump shut down the government because he doesn't want you to have healthcare.

But this isn’t just on him. Democrats MUST use their leverage to protect our rights, but it can’t end there.

Schumer and Jeffries can’t just go on TV or write letters, they need clear demands. We need action now.

When you have an administration that so constantly, shamelessly, openly lies, pretty soon there’s no faith in any information streams coming from the administration, so there’s no way to convey true information in a way that lands right, which leads to more chaos.

"the dems have to win in the middle" is one of those incredible thought-terminating cliches because it feels like it should work only if you paid zero attention in civics class /to the news and don't understand anything about the electoral landscape beyond "the person with more votes wins"

The world's largest retailer — like many others — has been absorbing most of the increased costs, but raising prices of some goods.

What annoys me is that GOP is redistricting while Dems are talking about and considering clapping back.

They simply do.

We wring our hands, talk about it, shake our fists.

And it’s always like that.

Always.

Dems need to move with FEROCITY and ALACRITY, and we never ever ever ever ever DO!

This jobs report is deeply concerning. I fear what President Trump is doing to discourage business investment, abandon manufacturers, and raise costs will hit our region hardest. Everyday Americans suffer under tariff tax increases on goods they buy while the ultra wealthy get massive tax breaks.

Congress eliminated public media funding. At a time of deep division, public media brings us together.

Help keep it strong. Join our monthly donors today: n.pr/458sOhq

Congress has decided to claw back previously approved funding for public media.

This decision hurts people in communities across the country, but it has only strengthened our resolve to keep Americans informed and connected. (1/2)

There is no historical example for a great power self-destroying its own national power like this.

Brexit was stupid but mere child’s play compared to this self-harm.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

It's up to us to make sure everyone knows they won't feel the bad stuff for a couple years, specifically because Republicans planned it that way so people will think the bill was good and vote for them again. Warn people it's coming.
The ugly cuts to Medicare and support programs don't come until 2026 and we know why. Between now and then Trump will continue to lie about it, and it won't hit home until after the election.

Dems will continue to predict that the sky is falling, soon. And everyone will write it off as politics.

It’s a terrible bill. It will literally kill people. The most vulnerable among us will suffer as the wealthiest benefit. It’s perverse. I wish there were something I could do. But alas, I am only a U.S. Senator from Alaska whose “no” vote would kill the bill. So I voted yes. You get it.
