I won't forget.

Brian Lyman: "Until we secure genuine political power for Black Alabamians — not subject to the whims of white politicians — none of us will live in a democracy." - The Martin Luther King Jr. speech everyone should know alabamareflector.com/2026/01/19/t... #MLK #Alabama

Both parties will make laws that limit individual freedom for the benefit of the common good. The question is how the common good is defined. Ds will limit gun rights to save lives. Rs will limit LGBTQ rights to save Evangelical notions of sexual morality.

Hopeful news! Some of these candidates will lose, but I'm glad to see them run. They'll draw in voters who otherwise stay home and prompt conversations that otherwise don't happen. Props to @tabithak.bsky.social who somehow finds the wherewithal and optimism to lead! aldailynews.com/democrats-pu...

If you ever wondered what it's like to be a woman in politics, this is a message I got today:

We are now RUNNING another country?!?!??

Of course Barron is an Andrew Tate fan. Just like his dad.

Stop thinking of yourself as a customer. You're a constituent. You're a citizen. You're a stakeholder. You get a say in what happens. So start speaking.

Feeling inspired by last night's victories? Thinking 2026 might be the perfect time to run? Let's talk about getting you on the ballot!

Democrats are on fire tonight! 🔥🔥🔥

Remember when they said they were cutting funding to foreign aid because there were people in the US who were starving? That was a short-lived false promise!

The “emergency naked bike ride” in Portland today proves that not all heroes wear capes.

The party of free speech, huh?

Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"

An idealist can be right her whole life and still be dismissed as naive. Be an idealist anyway.

Everyone's talking about what happened to Charlie Kirk and to Jimmy Kimmel, but meanwhile there are millions of Black, Hispanic, LGBTQ, & non-Christian Americans who don't have wealth or fame who are facing violence. Why does that kind of violence get a hall pass? www.alreporter.com/2025/09/24/o...

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game. The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

Is it Christian to publicly call for the murder of all homeless people? That's what Brian Kilmeade did on Fox a week ago. He still has his job.

You can't control the Democratic Party, but if you could, you'd make it bolder and stronger, right? Yah, well, maybe we can control it. Maybe we ARE the Democratic party. Maybe it's weak because we gave up running it while the elite donor class didn't. Get back in the game, friends.

Apparently, it's now illegal to wish a Republican a bad day.

Booker touted the state representative’s legislative record on gun violence and economic investment.

Honestly, I'm so tired of hearing that the Democratic Party doesn't support Mamdani. Democratic voters ARE the Dem Party, and he won the Democratic Primary! Endorsements from other Dems are being rolled out slowly because that's the most effective way to roll out endorsements. Let's enjoy it, yall!

The men who ran around with Epstein aren't lying when they say they didn't do anything egregious. They don't see this kind of behavior as egregious. It's normal to them. And that is all the evidence I need of their guilt.

Lisa Cook and Susan Monarez are showing how it's done. Refuse to comply. Delay. Complicate. Litigate. Publicize.

To impoverished Americans, regardless of who you voted for, I'm sorry the Trump administration is doing this to you.

Out of the 37 key elections that have occurred since Trump's election, the Dem won or over performed in 36 of them. 🎉

JD Crowe is my hero.

You got this, Smithsonian. Be strong.

I get why he fired the head of BLS (to avoid being blamed for high unemployment). I get why he's lying about crime in DC (to justify militarization of a city that threatens his authoritarianism). But why undermine public health efforts? How do deaths benefit him?

Things I can't get over: Trump insisting student loan forgiveness was unjust and that federal workers are a bad use of public dollars, and then turning around and offering student loan forgiveness and $50K bonuses to work for ICE.

Getting on the road to drive to Netroots Nation today. Can't wait to be inspired by the vast creativity and perseverance of this nation, fighting for a progressive future. #nn25

Jessica: I also heard no complaints when Mike Johnson decided to abdicate his job to say actually congress isn't in session anymore because I don't want to have to vote on turning over the Epstein files…. so be equal opportunity in your complaints about fleeing your job

It's hard to believe that DOGE finds this project essential.

Want to send help to Texas responsibly? Here's a list of trusted orgs, assembled by the Texas Dems. sites.google.com/txdemocrats....

Courage is contagious. Pass it on.

Trump and the GOP’s scam budget is nothing short of a reverse Robin Hood scheme to steal from the working class to give to their billionaire buddies.

This man is vile. I don't use that word lightly. This way of talking about your fellow humans is truly abhorrent. It is not ignorance, it is malice.

Why do so many community groups struggle to stay afloat? Help me with my research on groups by completing this survey! forms.gle/E1sYTbYF2pix...

Law enforcement officers should never cover their faces when making arrests or conceal their identities (unless they are working undercover). They work for us. We have a right to know who they are. These face coverings are frightening & unAmerican, as though they're ashamed of what they're doing.

Happy Pride month!!!

Fascism doesn’t arrive all at once. It starts with fear, surveillance, and the quiet loss of your right to privacy. Now, it goes to the highest bidder. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/t...

Hey yall! If you didn’t know there’s a civic town hall in Decatur tomorrow night (Friday May 30) from 6-8pm If you can’t go, just share the post💙 @donniejsackey.bsky.social @limestonedems.bsky.social @housedemocrats.bsky.social @thedemcoalition.bsky.social @purplepeopleresist.bsky.social

We are here at the Northwest Detention Center in Tacoma to conduct oversight — a duty we have as members of Congress. Grateful to do this work with colleagues like @jayapal.house.gov @repdexteror.bsky.social. We will keep you posted.

Serenity now.

90% of Democrats *in Alabama* think they are farther to the Left than the Democratic Party as a whole. Mathematically, we can't all be more lefty than average. 🤔

M4L and MTG. They go together like racism and sexism.

The U.S. has officially accepted a luxury jetliner from Qatar as a gift, and slated it to become a new Air Force One. Experts say that overhaul could take years and cost hundreds of millions.

I used to tell myself to act with the confidence of a mediocre white man. Now I tell myself to act with the confidence of a Trump appointee. It has really raised the bar!
