It was great joining @jamestalarico.bsky.social and @ginafortexas.bsky.social today in Texas. They're working hard to make a difference in the lives of all Texans, and will be able to do even more as your next Senator and Governor. Let’s get it done, Texas!

They damn do!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Very sad news, the 18 year old that was battling colon cancer has passed away, just a day after being reunited with his parents after a judge ordered their release from ICE custody. Our hearts are with the family, friends and community who knew Kevin and advocates for his parents release.

Hubba Hubba!

The NAACP has sued to block Tennessee’s rushed effort to dismantle the state’s lone majority-Black district. Instead of relying primarily on weakened federal voting rights protections, the NAACP’s lawsuit argues Tennessee Republicans violated their own state laws and constitution.

Hungary’s parliament sings “Ode to Joy” — the anthem of Europe — after Péter Magyar is sworn in as prime minister. Hungary is once again a proud member of the European Union.

“Memphis is Black! There’s no denying that!” House committee disrupted after Speaker sexton presents the racist Republican maps and claims race has nothing to do with how they carved up the city to dilute black representation with white power 🤔 (From @gabbysalinas)

ICE agents are Nazi’s !!!

What a nice bit of truth and honesty to Jimmy Kimmel! Thank you Meryl Streep! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Pope Leo just made a Black Trump critic the youngest bishop in the US. Rev. Robert Boxie III, 41, was named auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese of Washington, DC this week. The appointment was announced by Pope Leo. The placement & timing is intentional. Trump is going to hate it. That's the point.

Georgia O’Keeffe is not known for portraiture but she did paint this portrait of fellow US modernist painter Beauford Delaney (1943), who she greatly admired. Delaney was a major figure of the Harlem Renaissance and also gay #Womensart

I cannot find acceptable words to describe how much I despise anyone who looks up to this man and thinks this is cool or funny.

LIAR!! LAIR!!

Forget "staged shooting." Looks like there was no "shooting" at all. A THREAD.

It cost me $177 to renew my driver license today. Requiring certain ID to vote without making that ID easy, accessible, and free is 100% a poll tax.

What is happening in Louisiana right now is both a redistricting power grab and a dry run for authoritarian election subversion this Fall. The governor has declared a state of emergency to suspend the congressional elections because he doesn't like the current map.

MEMPHIS — Rep. @justinjpearson.bsky.social celebrates the resignation of Ted Townsend as Memphis Chamber CEO Townsend was largely responsible for helping pave the way for Musk’s xAI to infiltrate Memphis against the community’s wishes. More: www.commercialappeal.com/story/money/...

Hmmmmmm….

“Oh, do you think he was referring to you?” Intentional or unintentional this was pretty savage

Norah O'Donnell's "Oh, so you think he's referring to you?" to Donald Trump's "I'm not a rapist. I didn't rape anybody" ranks with Dan Rather's "No, sir, Mr. President. Are you?" to Richard Nixon's "Are you running for something?" as the best reporter's retort of all time.

🚨BREAKING: Virginia court REJECTS Republican lawsuit in challenging the legislature’s authority to alter the 2021 congressional map. A HUGE victory for our client the DCCC and the voters of Virginia. Another defeat for the GOP. www.democracydocket.com/cases/virgin...

Do not let distance diminish your empathy.

Thanks for speaking out Tizzy Woman!!! F*ck that Sen. Josh Hawley!

The FBI began investigating a NYT reporter for investigating and writing a story about Kash Patel’s girlfriend who’s been enjoying security services from the FBI on the taxpayers’ dime. There’s nothing about this administration that isn’t crooked. Nothing.

Yes, Trump is “losing his mind.” Tell us something we don’t already know.

Today we’re mourning the loss of our dear colleague Rep. David Scott. In his more than two decades in Congress, David was a fighter for farmers across the country and the people of Georgia's 13th Congressional District. May his memory be a blessing to our country.

Absolutely!!

I will be on the floor of the Senate all night voting NO on yet another funding increase for ICE. ICE already has more funding than the Marines. This money should be spent on things Americans need like health care, not Trump’s paramilitary force.

Nailed it! 🔥🔥🔥🕺🏻💃🏼 😂🤣💀 @isaiahrmartin.bsky.social 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

COVEY: “.. under the new map, Democrats are favored in 10 of the state’s 11 seats, leaving just one deep red district in southwest Virginia ..” @cookpolitical.com www.cookpolitical.com/analysis/hou...

Byeeeeee. Americans deserve a Labor Secretary who will fight for their rights — not someone fighting scandals and allegations their family members are sexually assaulting federal staff. It’s time for Hegseth and Patel to go next.

10+ survivors. 20+ years. Zero accountability. Authorities never fully investigated Epstein’s Zorro Ranch. Rachel Benavidez is still waiting and still speaking out for justice for survivors! It’s not too late.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​! #USDemocracy #Pinks apple.news/ATPw7urD2TWi...

"Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz told me she saw 1,500 detainees housed in cages at the site, a cage area that smelled like urine, and one cage configuration where detainees appear to have no option but to go to the bathroom in front of everyone."

Totally right!!! Major changes must happen!!
