ABOLISH ICE!!! FIGHT FASCISM!!! Voting Blue 💙 since 1978. Trump is a traitor and is not my president. Proud to have spent my life in all the best blue states: MA•NY•CA

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.

WE NEED 4 SEATS TO FLIP THE SENATE. JOSH TUREK SHOULD BE ONE OF THEM. I was researching Josh and came across one of his signature issues: Right to Repair. I had no idea how important this was. Most people in big cities probably don’t either. 🧵

The Secret Handshake moved its 10-foot-tall gold “Iran War Participation Trophy” to Foley Square in Manhattan. The satirical protest piece features a giant #1 and a plaque awarding Trump a participation trophy for his “enthusiastic involvement in the Iran War.”

This massive mural in Worcester is more than just street art. Artist Marka27 painted the three most important women in his life, his wife and two daughters, then surprised them when it was finished. ❤️

A reminder to those with short memories: A move toward more progressive policies among Dems is actually a return to party roots. Today's "centrists" are vestiges of a Reagan-lite shift in the Clinton & Obama-era econ policy. And fwiw, Biden understood, his econ polices were most liberal in decades.

The Senate just did something Washington rarely does. It agreed. Unanimously. Every senator agreed that Ghislaine Maxwell should never receive a presidential pardon or any other form of executive clemency. I love it and it’s about damn time!

Republicans want us to memory-hole everything Trump did in 2020 while dragging us back into the same tired 2020 culture wars: Fauci, Wuhan, vaccines, communism. Why? Because it’s now 2026, they broke the country, and desperately need a distraction to reinvigorate their base.

We need new leadership. Hakeem Jeffries announced his opposition to an amendment by Rep. Thomas Massie to cut $3.3 billion in military aid to Israel, coming shortly after reports highlighted a record $149,300 earmarked contribution from AIPAC's PAC to his joint fundraising committee. Fuck this guy.
