AOC is the single most important, original voice in American politics today...those who dismiss her chance to lead the country miss the degree to which she regularly speaks for the whole country...across the political spectrum. Because she speaks for regular people. Her influence will only grow.

AOC: Millennials are not punk kids anymore. We're grown adults with mortgages and kids, and that generation is starting to be decisive at the polls. And there is anger at being ignored, having our economic futures mortgaged by the generations that came before us and we're taking the reins

Acknowledging that an animal is capable of deliberately offering its trust to a human forces us to confront the uncomfortable reality that they are individuals, not commodities. 💚 🎨 VeganFTA

Statement by Melania Trump January 21st, 2029 "The lies linking me to Donald Trump need to end today. I've never been friends with Trump. I never had a relationship with Trump. My 23 year marriage to Trump cannot be categorized as anything more than casual correspondence. "

Shawn Harris shifted GA-14 left by 25pts. That’s the largest Congressional special election overperformance in at least a decade. Dalton, a majority Hispanic county in the district, shifted left by 33pts. Republicans won’t know what hit them in November.

Trump is rattling sabers at Iran while gutting democracy at home. America is no longer the leader of the free world — it’s a MAGA hostage situation. Our vote is the one weapon they can’t take. Virginia, use it. Vote YES on April 21 before they rig the map permanently. #VirginiaVoteYes

🚨 Hey Virginia, you need to stop a power grab that’s already happening in Texas, Florida & North Carolina. The amendment on April 21st is Virginia’s legal, democratic answer to keep free and fair elections. Make your voice count—early voting starts now! 🗳️ #VirginiaVoteYes on April 21st!

Money will be made by Iran, since your deal just allowed them to charge $2 million per ship to pass through—a fee that never existed prior to the war.

Demonstrators denouncing US President Donald Trump's policies took over streets across the US on Saturday, for the third ‘No Kings’ rally. More than 3,200 events were planned in all 50 states against what protesters see as an authoritarian form of governance.

Bloody hell. From secretly-funded lobby groups masquerading as ‘think tanks’ (who continue to dominate our discourse despite Liz Truss demonstrating the dangers) to a secretly-funded political party. Should have seen that coming.

So it turns out Reform are laundering their donations through crypto, before converting them into cash, hiding the original source of the money. So who is really funding Nigel Farage and Reform UK? observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

To be clear, the Republicans who policed all of our speech when Charlie Kirk was killed, & who jump on anyone who doesn’t mourn their heroes correctly, have just opened the door for every liberal & leftist in America to post ‘Good, I’m glad he’s dead” when Trump eventually dies.

Trump: “Robert Mueller just died. Good, I’m glad he’s dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people! President DONALD J. TRUMP”

Trump sued CNN for defamation over its coverage of his 2020 election lies. A federal judge threw it out. Trump appealed to the 11th Circuit & lost. Then he asked the full 11th Circuit to review it. They unanimously rejected his case. It is dead. Trump lost the 2020 election by a landslide.
