Trump leaked this story because he wants to you hear it. Let’s be clear :: Trump wants you to blame a shutdown for shit he is planning to do anyhow. If dems cave and fund him, he will STILL wield executive power and slash government programs. He HAS BEEN doing that with the government open.

Minutes after the bill was signed, my firm sued on behalf of affected voters. I told you I don 't bluff. Next up is to show that we win.

Can't we just get healthcare

“The president should be removed from office because he is plainly insane.” I mean, there is no war in Portland. There just isn’t. You can’t & won’t avoid reporting this story. But you’ll still find a way to try to report it in a way that gives him the benefit of the doubt. And that’s wrong.

How retailers are masking tariffs in new shipping and fee hikes Where tariffs are hiding, and how to tell if you're paying one.

Refusing to learn from history is a form of erasing it .

Trump’s regime knows they can’t silence us all through investigations, prosecutions or the deployment of brutal secret police. They can only try to silence dissent through fear. As long as we choose not to give into fear, we can’t be silenced. Join us to say NO KINGS: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

Today is an absolutely glorious Fall day here in Portland. It could not be further from this federal administrations depiction of our beloved City. I was proud to stand with local leaders today to say in unity that military intervention is not wanted, not needed, and not lawful.

Republicans don't need a single democrat to keep the government open. If the government shuts down, it's because republicans want it to.

South Texas showed up for us. I'll keep showing up for South Texas.

Trump and ICE are terrorizing Black & brown families, abducting our neighbors off the street, & putting our constituents at risk. For folks like Luiz and so many others, my office will continue conducting oversight & standing with our immigrant neighbors. www.boston.com/news/local-n...

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens. Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

China stopped buying American soybeans because of tariffs. They started buying soybeans from Argentina. Instead of bailing out American farmers, this administration is bailing out Argentina. Funny how that works.

Nobody in the world, nobody in history, has ever gotten their freedom by appealing to the moral sense of the people who were oppressing them. - Assata Shakur Pic of the day #photography

Billionaires are using the anger of the working man to keep themselves in power to get richer on their backs. It’s been a massive scam

SAD!!

With abortion rights and reproductive freedom under assault by politicians across the country, California stands firmly by a woman's right to choose. Our defense of these fundamental rights is unshakeable.

🚨BREAKING: Pennsylvania Supreme Court RULES that election officials violated voter’s rights by rejecting mail-in ballots with technical errors without notifying voters. Voters must be given notice their ballots won’t count so they can challenge the disqualification or cast a provisional ballot.

Being a House member since Mike Johnson became speaker is a pretty easy gig since he only has it in session about 18 days a year.

I said for years that the only way to permanently reduce migration to the United States was to destroy the vision that the world had of this country as the land of opportunity. That wasn't a goddam suggestion!

Quinnipiac in recent poll asked: Do you think that the way people talk about politics these days is contributing to violence in the United States, or don't you think so? 82% of voters agreed with this including majority of Dems, Independents, and GOP. I said basically this and got fired.

The protest has moved to the intersection of 25th and Harvard. Join us.

More tragic accidents in Russia.

It amazes me that people can lie with such ease. She just pops out lie after lie like it’s nothing. Pathological liar must be a requirement on the application to serve in the Trump Administration! 🙄

OMG the cruelty & lack of humanity are astounding! The Supreme Court six corrupt justices should be ashamed of what they’re permitting through racial profiling & ceding judicial power to Trump.

Since Lindsey Halligan personally indicted Comey she should personally try the case and not hand it off to someone else. She can show us how competent and qualified she is for this job in front of a jury.

I cannot properly, coherently express how bad and stupid this is

This is what unity looks like.

happy bday writer T.S. Eliot, b.1888, St. Louis. “We shall not cease from exploration And the end of all our exploring Will be to arrive where we started And know the place for the first time. Through the unknown, remembered gate When the last of earth left to discover...

ICE has erected a gate to keep protesters out. They are blocking a public street, despite the Broadview Fire Department ordering ICE to tear it down. Join us at 1930 Beach Street. 7-9 AM. Tell Broadview to tear this fence down.

Van Hollen: I will just say that anybody who thinks we're on the way to authoritarianism is wrong. We are there

Who is this man? He deserves to go down in infamy. This is thuggery. He is a thug.

Like Texas, Utah Republicans are redrawing congressional maps mid-decade. Unlike Texas, Utah's new maps could give Democrats more of a shot at winning a seat.

Semi-regular reminder that a sane country would have already impeached and removed. But then again a sane country wouldn’t have elected a maniac criminal twice in the first place.

CNN: The ratings are in for the first day. 6.26 million viewers on ABC. That was four times Jimmy Kimmel's average. And that's despite the show not even being available in a quarter of all American homes.
