Dem's always get freaked out by the progressives/Democratic socialists. They really do suck at reading the room. Americans are sick of the corruption and ineffectiveness, that's why Mamdani and other progressives are winning.

Non-violent campaigns are twice as likely to achieve their goals as violent ones. ICE is a violent campaign. ICE is slamming elderly people to the ground. ICE is traumatizing kids. ICE is a violent movement. Keep sharing those videos. Violence erodes popular support. www.bbc.com/future/artic...

Four U.S. citizen children were detained in an ICE raid—zip-tied, separated, held for hours. Imagine if these were your precious little ones! Can you close your eyes to this depravity? Please don't. Remember If this could happen to these little kids, it can happen to yours. Speak out now!

Here’s the table of contents from the most recent Democratic Party platform available. Aside from any single person, this is what our party stands for. All Americans should agree that these issues are important no matter your party affiliation. I’d love to hear thoughts from republicans.

She always has the correct message. I wonder where we would be now had she won.

“Frankly, part of the problem we have in terms of the punditry, is to suggest that we are waiting for a Messiah. It’s counter-productive to keep saying ‘who is the one’ instead of seeing in-front of us how RICH we are with talent - and let’s support that.” - Kamala Harris on the Democratic Party

“Identify or die”, that was the mindset of a terrified Texas homeowner as masked men in tactical gear tried to raid his house. The intruders ended up dead after a fatal shootout. Police later confirmed they were not #ICE or law enforcement officers.

Epstein survivor Sarah Ransome on Ghislaine Maxwell: “I have spent the last 17 years in my own prison for what she, Jeffrey, and all the co-conspirators did to me. I was raped three times a day. Ghislaine must die in prison.”

“I was r*ped sometimes 3 times a day on that island… and I was not the only girl on that island… Ghislaine must die in prison, because I’ve been in hell and back for the last 17 years.” Listen to the survivors.

Newsom: "He's a failed president. Who else sends ICE at the same time we're having a conversation like this? Someone who's weak. Someone who's broken. Someone whose weakness is masquerading as strength."

Trump looks so stupid with his little pieces of paper. It’s so sad that the president is trying to look more official. He knows he’s lying or he wouldn’t need his fake excel charts to back him up

The CEO of a a multi-trillion dollar company went to the White House, openly handed the US president a gift made of gold, and his company got a special exemption to tariffs the president has illegally imposed. Also, the Founders took bribery so seriously the Constitution bans it 3 separate times.

📽️ WATCH: “The U.S. sent us to El Salvador so that El Salvador could do the dirty work that the U.S. couldn’t.” Hear from Juan José Ramos Ramos, Andry Omar Blanco Bonilla and Wilmer José Vega Sandia — three of 230+ Venezuelan men the Trump administration sent to CECOT — in their own words:

Trump's IRS chief finally said IRS Direct File is "gone." Intuit lobbied hard against free federal filing for years. Here's Intuit CEO Sasan Goodarzi defending that record in a Decoder interview last year. Intuit later asked us to cut this part. We refused.

COLBERT: You warned everyone…he would prosecute political enemies, cut Medicaid, alienate our allies, give tax cuts to the rich. I know you're not here to say 'I told you so' but would you like to? HARRIS: You're correct. I did predict a lot of that. But what I did not predict was the capitulation.

Virginia Giuffre’s brother: I think we were shocked by it—especially the use of the term “stolen.” Because she’s not an object. She’s a person. Someone who was recruited at Mar-a-Lago—his property… it just kind of makes us wonder… how much he knew

Gerrymandering undermines the power of marginalized communities by manipulating district boundaries to weaken their collective voice. For Black, Latino, Indigenous, immigrant, low-income, and other disenfranchised groups, this often means remaining unheard in the places where decisions are made.

MORE from Virginia Giuffre's family: "The government and the President should never consider giving Ghislaine Maxwell any leniency." “Ghislaine Maxwell is a monster who deserves to rot in prison for the … violence and abuse she put not just our sister Virginia through, but many other survivors."

BREAKING: New statement from Virginia Giuffre's family. "It was shocking to hear President Trump invoke our sister and say that he was aware that Virginia had been 'stolen' from Mar-a-Lago. It makes us ask if he was aware of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell's criminal actions."

Epstein victims lawyer Spencer Kuvin: "We now know from the words of the President himself that Virginia was right all along, and that she was trafficked out of Mar-a-Lago.”
