If you don’t know newly elected Rep. Richard Ojeda (NC-9) yet, you will. Fire and righteous fury.

U.S. President Donald Trump has said he wants to “get Cuba done” before leaving office in 2029, adding that he would “certainly consider” military intervention against the communist-run Caribbean island.
Trump says he wants to ‘get Cuba done’ before leaving office, would consider military force
It comes as the U.S. continues to enforce a comprehensive economic embargo against Cuba.

Startup eyed over flight chaos funnels cash to Transportation chief's son-in-law The contractor behind SMART landed an $875 million deal after its PAC donated to Duffy’s son-in-law’s campaign. That deserves scrutiny and real answers www.rawstory.com/raw-investig...

Sixty air traffic controllers don't buy Sean Duffy's story, and it smells like bullshit. Nobody runs switchovers on a Friday afternoon with the sky full of planes. Either Duffy doesn't know what happened or he's lying about it. Neither one belongs in charge of the sky.

MeidasTouch@meidastouch.com · 2d ago“Virginia was trafficked to princes. She was trafficked to prime ministers. And she was trafficked to presidents.” Virginia Giuffre’s brother delivers a chilling account of how his sister was recruited by Ghislaine Maxwell after getting a job at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago.
𝐖𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐔𝐩 𝐀𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭 𝐈𝐂𝐄?🚨 These brave surgical staff members stood up for a landscaper in Ontario, California. This unbelievable bravery is an example for us all. We should all ask ourselves how we can help stop #ICELawlessness, be it calling Congress at 202-224-3121 or donating.
Not John Kennedy telling JD Vance to put down the crack pipe. Even a broken clock gets it right twice a day
New York City just banned surveillance pricing, a shady tactic where companies use your personal data to price-gouge you. That's a huge win for consumers. Former FTC Chair Lina Khan explains. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cbtUYshYM8&vl=en-US

Seems worth pointing out was “YOU’RE A F*CKING LIAR!” heckle came as @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social was claiming he supports universal health care — yet he has turned away from Medicare for All. Folks are done with the gaslighting.
George Retes is a U.S. veteran who served in Iraq. Last July, he was detained by ICE for days without due process or the ability to call his family. He was betrayed by his own country, which he fought so hard for—which he still fights for today. ICE does not care if you are a Veteran. Or a citizen.
@pressley.house.gov SHE NEEDS TO BE THE SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE. PERIOD!
Russian degenerates struck a nine-story building in the Solomyanskyi district of Kyiv with a drone. Three floors of the building are on fire. A 44-year-old woman was killed, and five people were injured.

Can we all agree that no convicted felon should ever be POTUS again? Ever.
Better whip, better message discipline, stronger leadership, clear alignment to the midterms mandate, no handwringing or crying over getting bamboozled by voice votes or early gavels. No getting stuck in traffic. Give no quarter. Fight for every inch. Every day. This is what the people voted for.
ABSOLUTELY INSANE. THE HOUSE DEMOCRATIC ****WHIP**** WAS THROWING THE FUNDRAISING BASH THAT KEPT DEMOCRATS FROM VOTING TO SEND THE HEGSETH IMPEACHMENT VOTE TO THE FLOOR.
We could have nice things if we'd stop putting stupid people in charge.

I hope everyone takes a good hard look at this picture. Trump’s under-construction ballroom is now bigger than the rest of the White House. Much bigger. The contrast says everything you need to know about this President and his priorities.
I will say again: if you charge people a fee for the privilege of tearing this thing down, you will be able to fund all of the Democratic priorities. I’d pay $100 and wait in line to hit that thing with a sledgehammer until my arms got tired. And I am not alone.

Because democrats readily accept their fate without a fight and republicans refuse to accept reality without a fight. The midterms were a historic rebuke of Trump, not an endorsement of the Democratic Party. For democrats to earn the trust of the people, they have to learn how to fight for them.
Another race that was not on my bingo card. NC Republicans tried to redraw the maps to gain one seat. Instead, they lost at least 6.

The VFW says this would be the largest cut to veterans' disability benefits since the Great Depression. Democrats, hold the line: vote NO on the Take Care of America's Veterans Act. You don't help some vets by taking earned benefits from others. #Pinks 🌸 #USDemocracy #DemsFightForVeteransCare
In a state that hasn’t elected a black man to the senate since Reconstruction, Scott Colom defied insane odds. He was largely ignored by the Democratic establishment. JD Pritzker pitched in. So did Senator Warnock. Scott went to Trump rallies to convince people to give him a shot. Dude’s a boss.
