Our original Labor Day Rally was postponed due to weather, but the sun shone in Oslo as we defended union rights in the US. We appreciate the words of support and solidarity our speakers expressed & remind our fellow Democrats in Norway the best form of resistance is to use your right to vote!

A judge ruled the firing of thousands of federal employees was illegal. But he stopped short of ordering the government to reinstate them, predicting the Supreme Court would overturn it.

Today’s the day! Join us in front of Stortinget from 4-5pm! #SolidaritySeptember

Our economic freedoms and civil rights are under attack right now. Over the coming months and years, we're all going to need to work even harder to protect the gains we've made. We need to answer the call to leadership like the tradeswomen of NABTU have.

Part of our constitutional crisis is that Republicans are stopping Congress from playing its fundamental oversight role.

Comic legend David Letterman arrived onstage at today carrying a list of presidents he’d mocked in 33 years as the longest-running late-night comedy host in American history. "Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, George H. W. Bush, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama—he’d made fun of them all."

It should be clear now, a threat to our democracy, is a threat to our way of life. Censoring media shuts down humor, news, knowledge, and everything in between. #Resist

Arizona voters check this out!🌵🏜️

My family escaped Ukraine from the pogroms and were lucky enough to escape to the US. They took my family in — we had nothing and offered nothing, but a desire to get ahead and be free while being safe. This is a country of immigrants, and we should be honoring that history.

Congratulations to Xp Lee on his victory tonight. I know that he’ll carry on the legacy of our dear friend Melissa Hortman and fight for all of his constituents at the MN State House. Read my full statement below.

Thrilled that my good friend and Governor, Tim Walz, is running again. He's truly helped make Minnesota a better place for all and I am excited for what he will accomplish during his next term.

I’m a hell no on Republican’s partisan government funding bill.

Congrats to families in New Mexico! Thanks Gov. Grisham for showing Americans what’s possible.

Congratulations to Xp (pronounced X.P.) Lee on his victory. It’s heartbreaking that he has to fill this position, but hopefully he can carry on the legacy of Melissa Hortman.

After Elon Musk’s highly public exit, key DOGE team members have transitioned to permanent jobs at Social Security, including as the agency’s top tech officials. High-profile teen DOGEr Edward “Big Balls” Coristine joined SSA this summer.

Kids were shot at their school in Colorado today. We don’t have to sit by and simply accept school shootings as a fact of life in America.

Congress can pass meaningful gun safety laws—and I am ready to do exactly that.

Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."

Health insurance premiums are spiking. Hospitals are closing. Democrats are ready to fix this health care crisis RIGHT NOW. But Donald Trump and Republicans in charge of Congress and the White House would rather shut down the government than save health care.

Senator Whitehouse tells it like it is. Fraud at the Social Security Administration is statistically rare. And undocumented workers DO NOT collect #SocialSecurity benefits. These are excuses to gut and privatize the agency that administers YOUR earned benefits! @propublica.org @whitehouse.senate.gov

You shouldn’t have to walk around with papers in the United States of America to prove that you belong. All I can say is that this administration should understand Chicago is a place that’s going to protect its people.

Virginians in the eleventh district made their voice heard last night – congratulations to James Walkinshaw on his decisive victory! Let’s get him sworn in TODAY.

Our plan: Not a single vote unless: ✅Restore Medicaid funding & ACA ✅Stop dismantling CDC, NIH, NSF ✅Restore SNAP & meals for veterans ✅Stop banning vaccines ✅Stop Trump's unilateral cuts to agencies

Moskowitz on Mike Johnson: "If he was lying then, is he lying now? ... I don't think in the history of this country we've had a Speaker of the House say the president was an FBI informant ... we need to hear from the FBI."

Rep. Lance Gooden on Trump potentially sending troops to Louisiana: "The only thing I'm not so sure of is whether or not the mayor of New Orleans would like having them there, but it's not going to be up to her. I'm so happy to hear about this ... I hope it's a model for some of these other cities."

Tens of millions of voters have had their information run through the tool — a striking portion of the U.S. public, considering little has been made public about the tool's accuracy or data security.

Despite today’s outrageous ruling, we all have the right to go about our daily lives free from racial profiling by the federal government. We will never stop fighting for our civil liberties and our immigrant communities.

You can push back against ICE’s terror. Talk to local businesses about putting up signs that protect workers and show support for immigrant neighbors: act.indivisible.org/...

BLOOMBERG: “In a ruling likely to go down in history as a shameful expression of anti-immigrant prejudice… the Conservative Supreme Court essentially decided it’s ok to use racial profiling in immigration enforcement.” www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

Trump could cite a 'porous' election system as a national emergency to take command of our vote, according to election denier Cleta Mitchell — raising urgent concerns about military and law enforcement overreach.

Countries around the world suspend some postal services to US over tariffs. Trump removed a tax exemption on packages under $800, and added tariffs, which is a hardship on foreign postal systems. Then how are Americans living abroad supposed to vote? www.arabnews.com/node/2614347... #VoteFromAbroad

Surprise, surprise: Trump’s White House wants to get rid of the watchdog that holds the executive branch accountable to the American people on critical budget issues. They don’t like anything with “Accountability” in the job description.   We cannot stand for this. No Kings.

BREAKING: The Missouri House GOP just gave preliminary approval to Gov. Kehoe’s mid-decade gerrymander AND a plan to gut the ballot initiative process. This anti-democratic agenda now heads to a full House vote.

A month ago, RFK Jr. called his CDC director “unimpeachable.” Then she refused to sign off on his plan to put little kids’ health at risk, and he fired her. RFK Jr. should resign.

Is everyone in this administration a complete liar? Just makin' stuff up?

One of the most conservative courts in the country blocked Trump’s use of the Alien Enemies Act to remove hundreds of Venezuelan immigrants from the U.S., ruling he incorrectly claimed the Venezuelans were carrying out an “invasion” against the U.S.

A silent vigil today outside the USCIS (US Citizen and Immigration Services) office in New York at 26 Federal Plaza. Meanwhile, inside the Federal Building funded by taxpayers, Due Process for immigrants following the law is being ignored and families are being torn apart by ICE.

U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. ignored federal data, twisted legislation and pointed to unsubstantiated treatments while addressing topics such as COVID-19 vaccines, rural hospitals and school shootings during a three-hour Senate Committee hearing.

BREAKING: Missouri Republicans just voted 10–4 in committee to advance Gov. Kehoe’s gerrymandered congressional map. If enacted, Kenhoe’s map would dismantle Kansas City’s 5th District & lock in a 7–1 GOP majority in the House delegation.
