There's no doubt that @aoc.bsky.social has changed the trajectory of American politics. Grateful to have her with us on the ground across Michigan to strengthen our movement to get money out of politics, put money in pockets, and pass Medicare for All.

JD Vance lecturing anyone about corruption is beyond parody. He says Trump rejects people getting rich off government connections—while Trumpworld reeks of self-dealing, pay-to-play politics, family profiteering & convicted fraudsters. Corruption isn’t a bug in Trumpworld. It’s the business model.

I'm a doctor and a dad. I rebuilt Detroit's health department, led Wayne County's Department of Health, Human and Veterans Services. We put glasses on kids, took on corporate polluters, eliminated medical debt. It just shouldn't be this hard to get by in the richest country in the world.

He deserves a Nobel Peace Prize

Elif Eralp, a 45-year-old human rights advocate, is serving as the mayoral candidate for the party known as Die Linke, or the Left, in Berlin. It could mark the first time a candidate from the party would become mayor since German reunification.

The funniest joke ever. 😂

With 45 days until the midterms, I urge you all to: 1) Help get out the vote. 2) Protect our electoral machinery from interference. 3) Not succumb to complacency, defeatism, or cynicism. We are the only ones who can end this nightmare. We are the leaders we’ve been waiting for.

He's stuck in a quagmire war, lost bids to limit mail-in voting and slap his name on the Kennedy Center and failed to pressure the Fed on interest rates. So Trump is trying to change the narrative by cracking down on a favorite foil: the media. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/19/u...

This is about Hegseth’s testosterone program. Fox is a disgusting, toxic, revolving network that platforms the worst of humanity, peddles in lies, and pays people well to put it all on full display. But this seems to be what their viewers want, which says a lot about them as well.

Today I made an unannounced visit to ICE’s facility in Scarborough, Maine. What I heard was unacceptable: no body cameras, no training, and no accountability. Johan Guerrero should be alive. Congress must act. Abolish ICE. End qualified immunity.
