We didn’t get our rights by asking nicely. Our ancestors fought for our right to vote — and won. So why would you let your vote go to waste? Vote because our lives depend on it! #BlueWaveIIn7Days

There have been rumors that when the Rose Garden was ripped out some of the Master Gardeners adopted the heritage roses and cared for them until the time they could be returned to their rightful place.

No politician is more qualified than a patient or their doctor to make personal medical decisions. The ACLU of Virginia is working around the clock with coalition partners to make sure voters know that passing Question 1 would enshrine these fundamental rights in the Virginia Constitution.

Vivek Ramaswamy doesn’t care what you think because you don't matter. The assuredness of his brilliance, compared with the hard-working, quiet strength of Amy Acton, highlights an important duality in American life today: mediocre men have wrecked this place, but good people can improve it.

In August, President Trump announced he had signed the “biggest oil deal in world history.” ProPublica reviewed the deal and found it gives a small group of people largely handpicked by the Trump administration long-term control of the enterprise.

All these so-called “independent” Republicans will go right back to voting for Johnson as speaker, confirm every Trump nominee, vote with Trump on everything, and continue doing zero oversight on his corrupt regime. A vote for any one of them is a vote to continue all of that.

The starvation was the setup. Blocked exits, mined roads, drones on aid convoys, then a staged mercy photo op with a famous name attached. Textbook inversion: create the crisis, control the exits, film the rescue, blame Kyiv. Name it before the frame sets.

WITKOFF TO PUTIN (yes, that Putin): “You talk so much about Trump being a humanitarian — you are a humanitarian also, sir. I salute that. I commend you.” 🤯 we are so cooked. Russia was never a hoax.

MD PhD here. There is no equivalent in the medical profession for the lawyer versus attorney distinction in law. Anyone with a doctorate is technically a doctor. El-Sayed never claimed that he was board certified.

Politics have alway been a nasty game. But Trump has brought something disgusting & actually terrifying to it. You now make up lies about your Dem opponent. Don’t talk about the issues bc you have nothing to say, so just lie. Smear them so bad that people believe you. Drown out the truth with lies.

Google co-founder Sergey Brin, who's spent $100M+ against California's Prop 40, spent the weekend dining with Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago. These billionaires keep accidentally proving why we need a billionaire wealth tax.

Ramaswamy is a sick, morally bankrupt piece of shit exploiting a woman’s rape at age 12 to win an election. He gave her estranged, abusive mother a platform to weaponize her childhood trauma. There is something profoundly fucking wrong with this man. He has no business holding public office. 🤬

Texas was built by hope. By people who had no business believing — but believed anyway. To every Texan who’s ever wondered if anyone in power is paying attention: We are taking our state back. Because a little bit of hope is a dangerous thing.

Talarico: "We just found out that [Elon Musk] is almost single-handedly bankrolling this effort to install Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate and defeat this movement...Elon Musk wants our land. He wants our water. He wants his very own personal United States senator. He is trying to buy Texas."

This is an unbelievable betrayal. We need to stop this deliberate throttling, restore Ukrainian defensive capabilities and investigate who gave the order. (Hint: It’s almost certainly Trump, Musk or both.)
