guys never let someone tell u that ur too much of a freak. Kate Bush's record company tried to get her to release something other than Wuthering Heights as her debut single. they said it was too weird & wouldn't chart well. but she didn't listen to them & now she's Kate Bush. never stop being weird

reported ICE activities in the Twin Cities this morning -- terrorizing a daycare -- drawing weapons outside a bank

To Gregory Bovino: This is what brandishing a firearm at a protest looks like.

This couple spoke at the 2020 Republican National Convention and received a pardon from the Republican governor of Missouri.

Walz: "We have got children in Minnesota hiding in their houses, afraid to go outside. Many of us grew up reading that story of Anne Frank. Somebody is gonna write that children's story about Minnesota."

Please share. 💔

Jack Smith to Van Drew after he goes on a never-ending rant: "I'm sorry. I didn't understand what you were asking."

you just don't see language like this in right-wing spaces anymore, quite shocking to see it.

AOC: This is quite a bit of market concentration. Agreed? CVS HEALTH CHAIR DAVID JOYNER: No. I'd suggest it's a model that works well for the consumer AOC: It works well for CVS. Health insurance gets a cut, pharmacy benefit manager gets one, drug manufacturer gets one, & the patient gets screwed

Donald Trump is furious not because Jack Smith did anything wrong as special prosecutor, but because he did everything right.

Worth every second

the misinformation war has been steadily heating up BOTS are fake accounts (sometimes impersonation) that are primarily used as 'extra' accounts for the purpose of turning on when needed to flood the communications zone TROLLS are disruption accounts designed to distract, deflect, divide, conflate

Guys, with understanding that everyone is angry right now, I am honestly going to start blocking people who say things like, "Who cares? The law doesn't matter anymore," or "They can do whatever they want, they can't be stopped" etc. I mean, if you really feel that way, you're a part of the problem.

We need a new generation of leaders who are the voices of democracy, freedom, social justice, & the rule of law. A new generation that renews the “we” in “we the people.” Instead of fretting over Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Party should embrace him as part of its future.

“You are imperfect, you are wired for struggle, but you are worthy of love and belonging.” Brené Brown This time of year can bring a lot of expectation. If it feels a bit much, that makes sense. You’re still enough, exactly as you are. #kindness #SelfCompassion #humanness Picture by Beth Evan’s

I was devastated to hear about the loss of Rob Reiner and Michele Singer. Rob is a generational talent that used his voice to advocate for a better world. We live in a better country because of them. They will be missed.

Houses are expensive because billionaires gobble up homes and fix the rent or turn them into Airbnbs. The billionaires want you to think immigrants are buying up all the property.

Terrific

The moment when 30 million American's received healthcare (2010) The moment when insurance companies had to start covering preexisting conditions, young adults could stay on their family's policy and I could trust that the small print couldn't screw me if I needed serious medical assistance. 🇺🇸

I think Americans are realizing that democracy is a participation sport, and the the government is ours if we want it to be. I feel like we got complacent and hoped some other third party would do the work for us. Seems like we have to learn that lesson every generation.

The primary fascist base is not rural whites. It is your local car dealers.

If Congress follows Trump's directive to rename the Defense Department, it could cost taxpayers nearly $2B in new signage, letterheads, and digital code. Imagine if we invested that money — and our bloated military budget as well — on the American people instead of the Pentagon.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Re: Hilary Clinton's emails. Where are the people that were chanting "Lock her up" now? #releaseepsteinfiles

Now that's how it's done. Congratulations, Adelita

“When I win, I will immediately bring prices down, starting on Day One"

I spy….a man with a functioning brain:

Authoritarianism can only succeed when democracy fails to deliver for working people. Authoritarian parties can only succeed when the pro-democracy parties fail to fight for working people. We need a new democracy and a new party system which can represent working people.

From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - we’ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president. The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult. A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates. When will party leadership learn this lesson?

Speaker Johnson has literally said he's "not promising anyone anything." For once, I believe him.

I’m not going to take this sitting down, because Arizona doesn’t deserve that. Swear me in, Speaker Johnson! www.nytimes.com/2025/10/28/o...

If you don’t see the story instead of the joke, then you are part of the problem. www.wave3.com/2025/11/04/k...

Chaos in the FBI Continues. Four FBI agents who were fired yesterday over Arctic Frost, then reinstated because US Attorney Jeanine Pirro said they're critical to an active public corruption probe, have been re-fired and walked out today. news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/...

Rep. Clay Higgins of Louisiana blames SNAP recipients for not stockpiling a month's worth of food. He ends his tweet with "stop smoking crack."

Speaker Johnson needs to stop being on vacation, admit that Americans need healthcare assistance, strike the draconian health cuts from the ugly budget bill, and get back to work so he can swear in Arizona's newly elected Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva.
