This is disgusting and dehumanizing. Our Haitian neighbors are beloved in Ohio and they deserve to be treated with respect. Shame on this Administration.

Thank you to all of our first responders, neighbors, and community organizations for another incredible National Night Out. The civic engagement here in Fairfax is why it’s one of the best places to live, work, and raise a family.
Colorado and Texas have taken very different approaches to personal freedoms - as in Colorado actually supports freedom. Colorado protects access to reproductive healthcare and recreational cannabis, while Texas has been going in the opposite direction.
House Democrats are adding a dozen Republican-held seats to their list of targets for the November midterms, expanding the national campaign map to districts Donald Trump won easily less than two years ago. https://to.pbs.org/4z6Lifx
House Democrats just added 12 'safe' Trump districts to their midterm election target list
The move brings the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee's list of targets to 58, an ambitious list that reflects President Donald Trump's diminished standing with the electorate and Democrats'...

The Ebola outbreak in the DRC is the largest in the country's history – and the outbreak continues to spread. Trump’s cuts to USAID have meant that necessary supplies and equipment aren’t getting to first responders at the scale and speed we need.
Ebola outbreak in DRC the fastest growing in the history of the virus
As the death toll rises to almost 1,500, and with a vaccine against the Bundibugyo strain potentially still months away, health workers face a battle to slow the outbreak

Our farmers deserve leaders who are going to work together to find solutions to the challenges they're facing. I was ranked number one for bipartisan bills in the Senate and number three for getting bills signed into law, and that's how I will lead as Governor.
Trump talks tough from inside his Truth Social bubble, but suddenly has nothing to say when he's actually in California. While the president uses LA to raise campaign cash, survivors of last year's firestorms are waiting for him to finally deliver federal relief to recover.
Governor Newsom Press Office@govpressoffice.gov.ca.gov · 5h agoTrump's visit to California was a total snoozer. Very low energy. No speech. He could barely take a question on the tarmac. Night night, Grandpa!
I’m praying for the firefighters and New Yorkers impacted by today’s terrible fire in the Bronx. I’m grateful for our brave FDNY members and I’m wishing a full recovery for those who have been injured.

Gun violence has stolen the lives of far too many people, in communities from Ohio to Illinois. We need strong leaders like these champions who will fight for commonsense gun laws to address this crisis. I’m proud to endorse them in their reelection campaigns.
GIFFORDS@giffords.org · 3h agoWe’re proud to endorse these leaders who have proven they have what it takes to stand up for public safety and fight for families across the Midwest. Voters must reelect them so they can keep working hard to build on the lifesaving progress they have already made.

Monica De La Cruz backed House Republicans' failing agenda. South Texas families got higher costs, more economic chaos, and broken promises. It's no surprise voters are rallying behind lifelong South Texan Bobby Pulido, who's fighting for the communities Washington has left behind.

Civilian skies should never be put at risk by Pentagon policies. Someone needs to be held accountable—that’s why I’m calling for Pete Hegseth’s resignation AND I’m on articles of impeachment to get him out.

When you hear “suspected arson,” it’s easy to think, “that wildfire has nothing to do with climate change.” While severe drought, low snowpack, and heat didn't ignite this fire—they are why it’s so big, destructive, and fast.
I testified in Judge Mehta's courtroom. I told the truth. A jury convicted. The system worked. Then the people running the executive branch decided the outcome was inconvenient and started tearing it down from the inside. That's not the courts failing.…

Note to the media: El Sayed isn't running against the Democratic 'establishment' he's running against Mike Rogers. Spend a little more time covering that race and put this manufactured party crisis crap in the rear view mirror.
Do you want to win a general election with the same graciousness Haley Stevens just displayed endorsing El-Sayed or do you just want to be an asshole on the Internet? Maybe ask them and listen to them first.

A gracious concession. Something the looney ass left & acolytes of Bernie Sanders know nothing about. Fuck El Sayed. Black voters in Michigan do not devote one ounce of energy to help him. He won by a razor thin margin, sorry Medhi Hasan that is no mandate. Fuck you too JoyAnn.
