The number one cause of drug related deaths is loneliness. People who overdose alone are more likely to die. I don't want you or your friend or your family to die.

Wow — Senators Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, Warren, Markey, Merkley, Heinrich have created an official internal "Fight Club."

They're challenging Schumer & Gillibrand's leadership, arguing the party is using an old, corporate-friendly playbook insufficient to take on Trump or win elections.

A high school kid and US citizen was driving his dad's car at lunch. ICE smashed the car window, dragged him out, and then said they didn't care that he was a citizen and arrested him anyway.

Now he faces charges of “interference or obstruction of investigation.”

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

This morning, in Broadview, 14 suburban women were arrested during an act of civil disobedience calling for an end to ICE/CBP’s kidnappings throughout the Chicago area.

"Let me be clear: The president has both the funding and the authority to fund SNAP during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.”

Tens of thousands of Americans will starve as a direct result of Project 2025 eliminations.

Most of these victims will be white people. Yet, this is what White America chose—gleefully.

I work nights so I sleep during the day. On my off nights I sometimes bake bread. I keep a bit of dough so that I can fold some cheese and meat into a pocket. That way when the smell of fresh bread wakes my wife, I can offer her a little treat and I don't have to cut hot bread.

Here's a gift link to the New York Times' coverage of the initial Tea Party rallies in April 2009 which inspired the media to treat it like a massive movement.

Check out how tiny the crowds were:

Philly: 200
DC: "several hundred"
Boston: 500
Austin: 1,000
Houston: 2,000
