Klobuchar: "I'm gonna live what I'm saying, and that means making sure that small towns can develop, that we keep our rural hospitals strong, and that's not gonna happen when my opponents -- all 3 of them -- have embraced Donald Trump's big beautiful bill that cut Medicaid!"
El-Sayed: "My commitment to Jewish safety is the same commitment that I have to the safety of my own daughters. Because if there is one question of political philosophy that ought to animate us all, it's what would we do if we treated all our kids like they were all of our kids?"
Face it. The Court is captured by right-wing billionaire interests, just the way railroad barons used to capture the railroad rate commissions, or mining barons the mine safety commissions. Look up “regulatory capture” or “agency capture.” thehill.com/opinion/judi...
Just admit it: The Supreme Court is political
Let’s face it, the Supreme Court has dug itself into a hole, and it just keeps digging.

The Trump Administration has already come for your healthcare and food assistance. And now they're coming for Head Start, a program that gives more than half a million kids access to free preschool. They'll do just about anything except lower costs for you.

Donald Trump wants to spend your taxpayer dollars separating families and building new ICE prisons. In 2016, I voted against reopening this prison in Appleton. In the Senate, I'm not going to send one more penny to this lawless, out-of-control agency. Let's rip ICE apart.
“Last winter, Minnesotans banded together and rejected the harm caused by ill-informed, unplanned and costly federal immigration overreach. As DHS takes steps to reopen Appleton as a federal facility, our response should remain the same: Minnesota is not the place for this.”
Jennifer Hegseth has no clearance, no confirmation, no appointment. She’s sat in on foreign military meetings, screened Pentagon hires, and was in the Signal chat. Now she chairs a presidential commission. The job she actually holds is “wife.”
Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.
Biden was replenishing our stockpiles with US manufacturers using US union steel. Trump has sent tens of thousands of those jobs overseas and has crippled our supply chain with tariffs and none of our allies want to help us. Maybe we can buy our arms back from Saudi Arabia.

Peggy Flanagan needs our help in Minnesota! Her opponent is a conservative Democrat with an atrocious record that includes voting to pass the Laken Riley Act and thank ICE for its service. Election Day is a week away, so join us later today to get out the vote for Peggy’s people-powered campaign.

Minnesota will stand as a firewall against any and all attacks on reproductive freedom. We were the first state to establish an ironclad right to abortion after the Dobbs decision and we will remain an island of freedom for those seeking to make their own healthcare decisions.
FactPost@factpostnews.bsky.social · yesterdayActing AG Todd Blanche plans to outlaw abortion nationwide: We're working to get solutions so that the Dobbs decision becomes permanent in every single state. We're putting policies in place so that states can't do things like mail abortion drugs. We will have victory, and it will be permanent.

I can remember in 2008 the sense of how the arrival of a better America would accompany this man's election. I still believe his message of hope is the right one. It is a strategy. Happy birthday, Mr President!
