Trump is more focused on his 80th birthday UFC fight than he is on ending the war in Iran.

Ken Martin, chair of the Democratic Party, made similar criticisms: “Donald Trump has billions for his golden ballroom, a brand new UFC arena outside the White House, his MAGA criminal allies, and his war with Iran. He has nothing for healthcare.” www.forbes.com/sites/maryro...

On this Memorial Day, we remember the courage of all servicemembers who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation. Today, let’s continue to honor them by supporting all servicemembers, veterans, military families, and their loved ones.

Cruel to the immigrants, and harmful to America. These are people who did everything the right way and have been contributing to our communities and country.

Groceries and gas prices are soaring thanks to Trump’s illegal tariffs and painful war.   None of these price increases were inevitable – they’re a direct result of policy choices by this President.

Connecting with Timothy Snyder’s On Tyranny book about making small talk -our kitchen table is easy small talk. See the old grocery store receipts circulating from 2006? Appeal to non-voting or R voting folks in your life without even getting political.

Tonight we congratulate our friend Stephen Colbert and his writers, staff and crew for eleven years of excellence. Watch Colbert’s finale tonight, and then never watch CBS again.

“Failed states do not politely remain inside their own borders. They leak — through migration crises, organized crime networks, black markets, intelligence vacuums and geopolitical opportunism. And terrorism.“

Looking for ways beyond voting to cultivate democracy? Check out Timothy Snyder’s book On Tyranny. Here’s lesson #12 summed up:

My statement on the Senate's vote tonight to advance my War Powers Resolution to force an end to President Trump's war with Iran:

It’s been 76 days since Trump launched his illegal war in Iran, and the Administration is STILL refusing to share with Congress or the public an official legal rationale for the conflict—all while pushing for $1.5 trillion for the Pentagon. Everything about that is ridiculous.

💵Could be lowering health care, child care, energy costs and improving so many countless other things. Instead we have a grifter wringing us out for all we have.

This slush fund is nothing more than an advance payment to the thugs who brought us the 1/6 insurrection as a deposit on their future violent action in service of Donald Trump. www.alternet.org/trump-slush-...

The Culpeper County Democratic Committee strongly opposes Governor Spanberger's veto of the collective bargaining expansion bill.

We can breathe a sigh of relief, folks. Former host of “Erection Connection” is on top of the hantavirus outbreak.

National average on gas $4.50. Bag of coffee over $15. Peanut butter at $6.99. They have had the presidency and Congress for a year and half and STILL want to blame Biden. GRIFTERS. MIDTERMS ARE COMING. thehill.com/homenews/hou...

Yes, how was it that Fox was already on the scene? Just a coinkydink, huh? Impressive news reporter instinct on the ready!

The Pentagon's estimated $25 billion for the war is nearly a quarter of the $101.7 billion that the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, spent on food stamps in 2025 for about 42.1 million low-income Americans each month, according to a study from the Pew Research Center. -USA Today.

The GOP redistricting effort is about undermining the will of voters. Louisiana has stopped congressional elections that were already underway, while Florida has enacted a congressional gerrymander into law with virtually no opportunity for public input.

🐚🐚 A BILLION dollars for a ballroom. 🐚🐚🐚🐚🐚🐚 🐚🐚 72 BILLION dollars for ICE/CBP. 🐚🐚🐚🐚 🐚🐚 The GOP Senate is pushing a budget reconciliation bill that can’t be filibustered and won’t need a single democrat vote. 🐚🐚 🐚🐚 The GOP Senate is keeping a president unfit for the job. 🐚🐚🐚🐚🐚
