Jeffries: "We're gonna win back the House ... the ghost of the Confederacy has afflicted the Supreme Court majority, & is invading & haunting the nation right now, & we take that seriously. Which is why Democrats are committed to launching a decisive and overwhelming response in advance of 2028."

I'm sorry, but the people who spent their Social Media time here targeting Hakeem Jeffries are just racist AF. Yeah, I know y'all claim to be Progressive and all, but you're holding him to a different standard than his white predecessors. That is racism. Period.

"Sen. Chris Murphy, the ranking Democrat on the DHS budget subcommittee, plans legislation that would require agents to have warrants for arrests, ban them from wearing masks, limit the use of guns by ICE, and restrict the Border Patrol to the border." fortune.com/2026/01/10/i...

This race is about who will deliver for Virginians. I have plans to defend against federal overreach, protect our rights, and keep our communities safe. Meanwhile, Jason Miyares’ only plan is to continue supporting President Trump’s agenda in Virginia.

Spotted in DC

No flyover states. No communities not worth the time. No voices we can afford to ignore. The new Democratic Party organizes everywhere, because we can win anywhere. ALL of our families are worth fighting for.

What happened yesterday was part of a much bigger effort to try and silence anyone who dares to question what the Trump administration is doing.  But we will not be intimidated and we will not be deterred. We must hold this administration accountable.

This is how you tell the truth: “You feel tough with your assault rifles and your sticks. You should be standing here with us. You’re on the wrong side of history. You took an oath to the constitution, not the fascist in the White House."

A message to the press specifically about deployment of the #NationalGuard & #Marines in LA: Please exercise extreme caution and accuracy here. There may be infiltrators and agitators and they should NOT drive the narrative. Your reporting has the power protect or endanger. Use it wisely.

Today is a victory for Rumeysa and for the rule of law — but we must be vigilant. Trump and the Republicans are coming after free speech and the Constitution. We must keep up our fight.

Historian here: “To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” ― Theodore Roosevelt

Gender equality doesn’t just 'happen.' Women’s rights must be fought for and protected. Our responsibility is clear. To lead by example and create a world where opportunities are fair for all. Not just today, but every single day. #InternationalWomensDay

I met this morning with Ukraine’s Defence Minister, Rustem Umerov. We know Ukraine’s defence needs, and the EU is ramping up weapons production to speed up deliveries. Europe stands with Ukraine and its brave resistance against the brutal Russian aggressor.

House Democrats are unified in our opposition to the largest Medicaid cut in American history. We only need three Republicans to join us in order to stop it.

Republicans are spreading lies to distract from the truth—they’re trying to cut Medicaid.

Look what's happening at the French Embassy in Washington DC.

House Republicans have just been ordered to stop holding Town Hall meetings. They can run from their extreme agenda. We will never let them hide.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

👋🏽 here’s what @thedemocraticparty.bsky.social did today!

"But Talia," people asked me, "why did you dedicate half of your book on Christian authoritarianism to the physical and sexual abuse of children?" because that is the origin and the end of this miserable ourobouros: the torment of youth into obedience

Donald Trump has ordered schools and universities to be even more deferential to male students accused of sexual violence. www.thedailybeast.com/trump-orders...

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare. Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.” We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

After the intense outcry from the American people, Trump has admitted his freeze on federal funding was a colossal mistake by rescinding the guidance—but the threat, chaos, & panic can't just be wiped away. There's still a lot of work to do to ensure funds get where they belong.

We spoke out, and Trump walked back his attack on taxpayers — for now. We know this is only round one. Republicans have made their agenda clear: steal from everyday Americans to give to the wealthy and powerful. Together, we will stop them.

The Trump Admin really has no idea what they’re doing, do they? Their incompetence is the only thing saving America at the moment.

🚨 BREAKING: OMB has just issued a memo *rescinding* the previous memo freezing all federal financial assistance programs. Full text, per government source:

Round one goes to Team America. We remain in the ring until far right extremism has been completely and totally knocked out.
