CEOs are raking in $17 million a year, 300 times what their own workers make, and John Husted’s answer is “learn to budget.” Sherrod Brown wrote the law that got over 100,000 Ohioans their stolen pensions back. Vote for who fights for you, not who lectures you. #BlueWaveIn90Days
Notice DOJ doesn't talk about its efforts to obtain state voter files anymore. They are 0-20 in those cases and today is the beginning of the quiet period -- states can no longer do systematic removals of names from the voter rolls. TLDR: We won!🥳
Police reform now. Fascist City Councils must be thrown out! We did it in Whittier and you can in Kansas too.

Rent isn’t high by accident, it’s high because 9 landlords colluded with an algorithm called RealPage to fix prices behind your back. Kris Mayes sued every single one of them. This is what a real fighter looks like, and it’s why she deserves your vote, AZ! #BlueWaveIn90Days
Whitehouse: "Today I think is a sad and embarrassing day for this committee as it looks like on a party-line vote we are going to advance out of this committee probably the most discreditable person ever to seek the office of attorney general. Let's start with the Epstein files ... "
How can we allow Republicans to get away with this? Why isn’t the press storming the hospital demanding accountability? Why did the press savagely attack a general fighting cancer for a day or two and let this slide for weeks!!!

Maybe it’s me, maybe I’m old fashioned, but the sitting president has all but declared war on states that didn’t vote for him, and I feel like the media should be talking about that every once in a while, right?

The DOJ was willing to charge a labor leader with a crime, hold it over him for months, & then walk away from it once the charge couldn’t survive scrutiny. That is not how a justice system is supposed to work.

If you ever encouraged people not to vote, you’re part of the problem. You are no longer needed in the chat and have no business running for office. F*ck uncommitted‼️
They just don't care about seniors or working class Americans at all. Over and over this Administration decides to screw people already barely making ends meet. This isn't punishing the pharmaceutical companies. It's making medicine more expensive for seniors. They will lie over and over.

They are not protecting us. Saturday, I went to stand with mothers asking for justice for their sons. We need police reform to be free.
Qasim Rashid, Esq.@qasimrashid.com · last wk.17-year-old Anthoneil Williams II called 911 while in distress. Austin police arrived, and executed him in cold blood with a barrage of more than 20 rounds. Law enforcement does not protect us, SCOTUS has repeatedly ruled that police have no legal duty to protect the American people from harm.
If they postpone the vote on Blanche, we might have time to learn what Judge Sullivan sees behind the Epstein redaction bars in the @katiephang.bsky.social lawsuit, or whether Blanche just defies the court order. We might also get the internal comms in the NYT subpoena case depending on the timing.
Dust bowls anyone?
