They don’t care if you’re pro choice or anti choice. They don’t care if you’re for or against gun control. They could care less about inflation, access to healthcare, social security, veterans, etc. The only thing aipac cares about is whether a politician will prioritize Israel. Sadly, many do.

Michigan Republican, Mike Rogers, is celebrating Abdul El-Sayed’s victory tonight. Not cuz he has an easier path against El-Sayed, but because he knows he’s about to get a ton of AIPAC money. This should tell you everything you need to know about AIPAC. Right, left, center—they just want shills.

Let's be clear, Trump is in Las Vegas to champion his billionaire friends he gave the biggest tax break in history to... not the working families who are struggling in the economy have wrecked. The average Nevada family now pays $2,900 more on necessities since Trump took office.

On a private call, Todd Blanche said his goal was to make the "Dobbs decision permanent in every single state." This isn’t just a confirmation vote anymore—it’s a roll-call vote on which Senators endorse BANNING abortion in ALL 50 states. I’m voting NO.

The fact that the Democratic senators are agreeing to a continuing resolution until Dec 11th with NO compromises for them is absolute political malpractice and head scratching. Why not even try to ban like…. The arch? Anything!

Dozens of gas-burning power plants are being built across the country, solely to power data centers. These plants could emit as much planet-warming pollution as half of all passenger vehicles in the entire country in a single YEAR. We need a data center moratorium — now.
