Why is it acceptable for Israel to order the evacuation of eleven towns & villages in Lebanon? Can you imagine if a country ordered the evacuation of towns & villages in the UK? France? Switzerland? No, because we wouldn’t tolerate it. So why are we standing by & letting Isreal get away with it?
Please repost widely; there's never been a more important moment for this passion project. So, yes, go see it, too! :)
Khanna: "No. I'm not supporting new funding. The answer for every Democrat should be 'absolutely no.' It's $400 billion for a war we oppose? We could have universal childcare for that. We could have free public college for that."

I’m not a Newsom fan at all, but I gotta give him props for understanding the current situation and throwing away unilateral disarmament. If they’re gonna further gerrymander Texas mid-cycle, let’s gerrymander the fuck out of every blue state. You don’t beat fascism with niceties.
Can you hit repost? Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn't want you to know the name of her opponent but will try every desperate attempt to save her seat. My name is Shawn Harris. I am a Democrat, husband, father, Retired Brigadier General, farmer, and I'm running against MTG. Can you share and follow me?
Bullying at a high level and grade school level—it’s embedded into our culture. And despite the optimism of our teachers and parents, the bullies are winning. Please listen to this heartbreaking true story from the childhood of @rbreich.bsky.social
