😡😡😡😡

Kinda weird that the party that controls the House, the Senate, and the White House claims there's rampant voter fraud.

Yet another sad reminder that there is a two-tiered justice system in America: One for the rich. Another for everyone else. If elites can be held accountable in other parts of the world, why can't they be held accountable in America?

This looks like a great program with a Hendersonville connection!

Yes, this IS pure evil.

Over the past year, Costco has taken a risk by adopting visible public stances at odds with President Donald Trump’s agenda. It makes Costco one of the few big companies to defy the administration — and get away with it: https://cnn.it/4qrfjB7

Arnoldo Bazan, a 16-year-old U.S. citizen, was put in a chokehold by ICE agents. Agents took his phone, which he tracked to a used electronics vending machine near an ICE detention center. Yes: ICE is stealing and selling people’s things after brutalizing them. There are no words.

Mike Johnson’s office says the legally required plaque to honor police officers who protected the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, is “not implementable” and will NOT be hung — despite being mandated by law.

ICE is going after people who commit fewer crimes than U.S. born citizens. They're robbing people, hurting people, using racial profiling, violating due process, hurting children, and going after American citizens while they do. This is an illegal criminal enterprise from head to toe.

Frost: If you want to protect children, why don't you ban assault weapons instead of health care?

As Republicans attempt to gerrymander their way to a 2026 election win, they’re encountering one big obstacle: the courts and voters. Now, the party is waging war on both by attacking voter-approved measures, threatening impeachment and more. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/to-p...

The White House continues to make our work harder. They’ve: ✂️ Cut funding for transportation and education 👎 Effectively told families in poverty “you’re on your own” ❌ Presided over the longest government shutdown in history 🚨 Failed to act after Western Maryland was hit by a devastating storm.

Our taxes paid for this

Trump's approval ratings are tanking. He's flailing on the economy. Epstein haunts him. Republicans are beginning to revolt against him. He's not all powerful. A tyrant can exercise tyranny only insofar as the objects of his tyranny continue to allow it. Remember this.

Our schools are falling behind because Republicans refuse to fund our schools. The solution is simple. FUND LEANDRO NOW! 🚨

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1 trillion. Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government. Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed seven straight audits. This is the military industrial complex on steroids.

Psst! Don’t forget Happy Hour on Dec 19th and an exciting Candidate Forum Jan 24th. HCDP offices are closed Dec 22nd to Jan 1st.

While SCOTUS weighs gutting the heart of the Voting Rights Act, communities across the country — Black, Hispanic, Asian American, Native — are using Section 2 to protect their voice. What happens if it disappears? Here are the real stories you need to know👇

People say DOGE "failed", but to be fair DOGE successfully stole every American taxpayers data & personal information & had access to pretty much EVERY government system and likely shared that data with foreign entities. IDK that I'd say failed exactly, being they did everything that was intended.

“ICE is just targeting brown people who have an accent, snatching people out of their cars” Racial profiling is all they do

On the other hand, the blatant abuse of power can energize voters as well

What we're reading: A non-partisan report found that Trump’s attempted military takeover of blue cities has already cost taxpayers $500 million. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-military-takeover-cities-cost-b2863774.html

✨ The tides are turning in the Deep South. Democrats just flipped TWO seats and shattered the GOP supermajority: proof that no place is beyond change when people rise up and vote for progress. 💙 #BlueWave

Let Chuck Edwards know what you think of this!

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year. That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare. Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

Newsom: "He is not screwing around. He's changing the rules. He's rigging the game because he knows he'll lose if all things are equal. He did not expect California to fight fire with fire."

Many thanks to our amazing Attorney General. One of the bright spots of last year was seeing NC elect him as well as our governor, secretary of state, lieutenant governor and superintendent of education!

Please say Arthur’s name. Share Arthur’s story. ICE kidnapped this 13 year old child off the streets of Mass and have moved him to two separate detention centers in other states. He’s 13!!! His mother is here legally. He’s a child!! ICE are monsters

Good. Even if this doesn’t work, it’s time to go on offense. www.newsweek.com/jb-pritzker-...

NEW: Adrian Fontes has CERTIFIED the results of the AZ-07 election of Adelita Grijalva. Mike Johnson is OUT of EXCUSES and should swear her in.

The trailblazing transgender rights activist Miss Major has passed away at the age of 78. Miss Major was a lifelong organizer and participant in the ballroom scene. She took part in the 1969 Stonewall Riots and was injured by the police — but she kept fighting.

Please contact your representatives and ask them to stand up for democracy!

Cool. Release the Epstein files.

In 2020, FCC Chairman Brendan Carr called political satire one of "the oldest and most important forms of free speech." He might have forgotten his words, but we haven't.

The federal government is absolutely abandoning North Carolina's recovery from Hurricane Helene. Compared to every other major climate disaster from the last 20 years, the feds are skimping on helping communities impacted by Helene get back on their feet.

Yes!

We live in a country where the president can order a comedian to be yanked off TV. What I describe is not a democracy.

Trump’s tariff taxes on Canada, one of Minnesota’s top trading partners, will raise costs of everyday goods, hurt small businesses, and eliminate jobs by attacking our neighbor and ally. Senator Kaine and I reintroduced a bipartisan bill to undo Trump's reckless tariffs on Canadian goods.

Trump did that
